How did Jake and Gareth create the “Workbox” workout inspired by a customer service disaster?
This is a HeadGum Podcast.
I'm in a... I don't even know how to explain what's happened today. Just making sure that it's going into your microphone and not just like your... Oh, let me double check here.
Check see if you're sure seven. Yeah,
sure. Yeah, it's sure.
It is echoey.
No, I rented this place and nobody works here. And I only found one office that's open and I just went in it. And it's huge and stupid.
So I can probably move offices when we have a break. Wait, try to get, nobody works there?
Nobody who cares where, let's just, I can't even, I walked
in. What city are you
in? Chicago. So I walked in and there was just like, I was like, hey, I rented an office. And everyone was like, yeah, we also rent space here. Nobody cares. There's a phone number to call. So I called the phone number. There's another number to text. I've been like, hey, I rented this office. Where the hell is anybody? Nobody's gotten back to me. And then so I just walked around like a scavenger, tried to open a bunch of doors, found one that opened. And it's this weird ass room. So
I could
probably move at some point,
but
I'm just
in a
cavernous...
I just don't even know
what's happening.
I hope someone comes and kicks you out and tells you that they're sick. Oh, my
God. I swear to God, if anyone gives me shit, you will see a side of me where you'll be like, oh, okay.
Give us a taste of how you will behave. Is Gareth breaking up now, too?
Yeah.
Gareth, you're breaking up now, too.
Well, I mean, at least his audio is fine. It's his video.
Do you have internet at this weird place? Yeah, but I just, it's like a, hold on. Let me see if there's someone working
here. What's going on? Let's, should we start a call and have this be part of the intro and then put this call with this intro? Yeah, we can try it. We can go for it. And then I'll just
keep
catching Gareth up. What do you mean nobody works? What is the name of the place you've rented? And by the way, we're in an intro, everybody. He just walked into a
building. He doesn't even know if he's in the right building. I am in the right building. What is the
building? Hold on. I'm going to see if I can put.
He joined a public internet. This is insane. Gary, Natalie's right. Are you in the right place?
Yes.
You have no internet. You're breaking up.
Hold on. Hold on one second. Hold on. Hold
on. This isn't the time for you to tell us to hold on.
Hold on.
You hold on.
This is going to be fine.
It's not fine. Hold on. Also, you had time to put oils all over your face, but you didn't have time to back up where you were going. Look at how shiny he is. That's insane. That is an insane amount of glisten.
He looks like he just ran a marathon. Your face is shining. I'm sweaty. You have no internet. You're in a strange office. You're frozen
right now. And your face is glistening.
I'm crying.
What is happening? Is it sweat or
is it
oil? It's oil. No, it's creams. This
is
not an intro. This is an intro, but Garrett's really fast. What is the name of the office you're in?
Workbox in Chicago. It's
like a
WeWork. But it's different.
But it's a generic
WeWork. Nobody works here.
Did you save a little bit of money?
No, I did this
instead of the hotel Wi-Fi. Oh. So I didn't want to do the hotel Wi-Fi
because it was spotty. Call the number for customer service while we're on.
There was... Okay. Nobody's going to answer.
What time did you start renting it?
1230, half hour ago.
And I was like,
somebody's
going to be
here at some point.
Yeah, it's not early. Which location are you in?
Jackson Street.
Jackson Boulevard?
Yeah. I love how that's like, come on.
I was just clarifying. There could be a Jackson Street and a Jackson Boulevard.
Workbox.
That's crazy.
Hi, this is Gareth Reynolds from We're Here to Help. I rented an office from you guys. Nobody works here. I just found a cavernous one. I'm on your open guest Wi-Fi. And it's been a terrible experience. And I'm friends with Jake Johnson. Jake Johnson's on this. No, he's not. He's not on this show. It's just my show. It's about suits. And Natalie. Natalie. Rabbit grin. What are you guys saying? Anyway. I fucked up. I don't
know. Really bad job.
