They knew I did comedy.

They were cool Gen Z assistants.

Like they thought I was hilarious for being their manager and a standup.

Um, so I wasn't like, you know, your typical, what you think of as an HR person, but HR is, it's a huge department at Netflix.

So I was just in HR because that's where we belonged.

I was like a staffing manager.

So like, but it still was, um, it still was ripe for comedy.

My everyday life, like what I did in the day versus night.

It was, was ridiculous.

I aggressively tried to compartmentalize all of my emotions around it.

Cause it, cause what you're describing is like, it's easy to fall into that trap of like, ah, I work at the place where I want to be a comic, whatever.

So I was, I've had a day job my entire adult life.

So Netflix was like the loveliest place to work.

Like the people were smart and,

Like the benefits, the lunches, like the name, like it was a great place to work as a human being.

I can only imagine, sure.

So I was grateful for that.

I also had, and I hate this, work-life balance.

I had a work, you know, like it's like you're balancing your life with work.

Like it's your life.
