I don't think you are "cringey" at all. I love how authentic and real you are. Keep up the pre show banter, there are definitely those of us that get it.

I love your pre call banter Dr.John, don't change! I also love your high energy and that you're real. Keep on doing what you're doing! Your making a huge difference! I never miss your show!

Thank you for pointing out what a double-edged sword California's public assistance programs can be. I experienced that first-hand when my mom went on welfare after my parents divorced. We quickly discovered that we could get better medical coverage being on welfare than any workplace insurance! What's the point of going back to work then?

Yes, California does care about people. Lots of social programs. The point of a career would be to make a difference, help people, solve problems, get the money, enjoy life and support the family.

As a woman, I hear this NP: "I was just nice to him. . . " Been there. What woman hasn't. Makes you not want to be nice to anyone for fear of how it will be interpreted.

Story of my life. Every man I am remotely nice to, and show any interest in friendship... (I am out, and gay,) Always confess their love for me. ... Smh. It's nuts. I'm convinced that men have no idea how to be just friends with women. I want to believe it can be different. And I'm going to keep trying to make friends.

Your pre-call banter is GREAT!!! Don’t change it up! 💫

In 2 seperat colleges I've had an employer and a professor come on to me. I didn't see it comming either time, because both were married. I look back now and wish I hadn't deleted thoes conversations I'd had with them, because either one of them could have done the same to other girls.

I had a supervisor try the same thing with me but I told him I wasn’t interested but he was relentless. Started making the workplace a hostile environment and again, I told him I wasn’t interested but he ended up moving me to a different department and one I didn’t want to work and he knew it. It’s annoying because I liked my job and where I was at and he retaliated because I wouldn’t go to lunch with him. Why should I have to move or pay for his advances? Since moving, he had other problems with younger ladies on the floor and he was moved eventually. It’s not ok.

So couldn’t you just report him and get him fired?

I like the "pre-call banter"! It builds rapport and helps allows callers to open up quickly.

If you are sexually harassed by a supervisor, I have found you either have to quit, or just grit your teeth and bear it. Almost no one will take your word for it, and fires on the spot (and I understand why they can’t do that). There is always an investigation, sometimes write ups or an “improvement plan”. Then you just have a horrible work environment, and are likely penalized in some way by your offending supervisor. Everywhere has HR policies that are supposed to protect against these things, but I haven’t ever seen it work out well for the reporting subordinate. My perspective is that of a petite woman who has worked in kitchens (am now a chef) for 12 years

Love the pre, during and post call cringey banter !! Keep it up !! love from Melbourne Aus!!!

Your pre call banter genuinely makes me laugh bc it CAN be extremely awkward lolol but you just keep rolling with it, I love it! Don't change!

As a nurse practitioner, you are his subordinate. He has power over your career if you take that position. There is no easy way forward.

Octavia, you’re so strong. It’s ok to not be ok sometimes. Just know, that I believe in you and can’t wait to hear your updates! I will be praying for you and thinking of you. I wish I can help you.

If you are cringey than so am I! I'm just as awkward as you, so I appreciate your banter! You show me tips of owning myself and being ok with my weird self. I listen to your mistakes and things that go well and try to navigate my own awkward interactions! So thank you for being you! Love your show BTW! Helps me every week!

Some people just like to complain...Love the show!

The woman is homeless with 2 kids and their father is gone. "She will work 2 jobs and 4 jobs??"

I love the show in every way. Please don’t change a thing. I always laugh from beginning to the end!

I love the banter, just don’t put yourself down. But I love hearing your thoughts!

I enjoy the pre-call banter. As I listen to the call from the nurse practitioner it occurred to me that the supervisor's advances were a pre- interview test of her ethics. I'd love to know the outcome.

The banter before calls is one of my favorite parts of the show!

I love how you act before the show! Haha

Good grief.. this is a woman in her thirties... say no thanks to the man and take the job you want.

Did you hear what Dr. John said? She really can't work for him, its waaaaaay to complicated.

Caller 2 didn’t show up to her court date, which is why she received the eviction and had a sheriff lockout. Usually a judge will laugh a landlord out of court if there’s no proof of another tenant, esp if the defendant shows up. Always show up to an eviction hearing/summons from the court, unless you receive a hearing cancellation in the mail- prior to the hearing, period. She could probably sue the kid and the landlord. The landlord also owes her reimbursement for a hotel or have moved her to another unit, ect since her home was inhabitable. Next time, get and keep renters insurance. Get some closure and sue them. Property management was my job for 11 years.

I love you, Dr. John. You're amazing. F* those haters....

I love the pre call banter

I have never been pretty enough or cute enough to be harassed by a guy in the workplace. I have seen it though. I’ve also been told as a (not attractive female) that I’m not approachable to guys. Prob why I’m single.

I am very active, participate in two different sports, have lots of hobbies and interests, am retired (early), completely debt free and do not need to punch a clock. Guys like skinny pretty women. Bs therapy does nothing to change your looks. Some people are naturally pretty and others aren’t. I refuse to sleep around. I don’t drink or smoke. Therefore I’m considered undateable.

Hey people who complain… there are these button things called fast forward AND stop. Use them….shesh! Cringy? Really?

Why does the last caller need to fix her schedule? She just said she works days. Also, telling her to say that to her ex would just start a fight.

I like the banter.

She could always move to Bakersfield if she’s in SoCal.

Dr. John, you have said to yourself if I don't wear this maybe she won't make rude comments to me or hit on me?

Dr their is and old saying, You don’t get your meat where you get your bread and butter.

Negligence and defamation are difficult, defamation being the hardest.

Alarm bells are going off for me with the second caller. Parts of the story do not sound real. She canceled her renter’s insurance after the eviction notices ce. Really???? You are being evicted and you have the presence of mind to cancel your renter’s insurance?

First caller John could have asked what her husband thinks. If he's upset, I'd not work there for anything. If he's okay with it, then proceed forward with caution maybe?

Why does she have to do that?

That's the issue, and one reason I don't even bother dating anymore. .Men have decided they are entitled to women who are 10 plus years younger than them, and it doesn't even matter how fat or gross the guy is, they legit have no boundaries. When I moved out of my condo a few years ago, a guy in his 70s, no joke, told me I will miss you, I want to take you out to dinner and we can go back to my place after, adding that he lived alone for a reason. After I vomited on the sidewalk I just walked away shaking my head... just disgusting! MEN you don't deserve a younger women, so please stop looking for 20 something year olds when you are in your 40s!
