(uploaded 2026-07-28). The excerpt is a spoken monologue (single speaker labeled SPEAKER A) in which the speaker discusses staffing for senior living facilities: clarifying FTE (full-time employee), arguing that 24/7 coverage is required because residents frequently wake at night, questioning a $10,000 staffing budget as insufficient (estimating only 1–2 employees can be hired with that amount), and recommending the budget be increased. The tone is informal and pragmatic, with a brief reference to needing at least one person armed/ready for overnight shifts.

Chapters

When you say FTE, what is that? Full-time employee. And so I'm assuming this has to run 24/7 because if I have senior living people there, they got to get up and pee in the middle of the night. Every old dude I know in the world has to get up and pee in the middle of the night. Including me. Right. 10 times. And so I'm going to need at least one person there swinging a gun. And so sometimes like you see numbers, but we don't do quick math. My brain always does quick math. And so I know in my head that I, I'm only going to get maybe 1 or 2 employees out of that. Um, out of that budget, $10,000. Yeah, so that needs to be increased.
