Mojo in the morning show. Megan's dog, Coraline, is evil.

Period. And that's the end of the topic. Next story.

We'll be right back after these words.

My dog is evil. I love her. She's truly a brat. But I think anybody with a small dog knows that all of our dogs are brats because they get away with everything because they're little. um and speaking of little i actually sneak her into work here all of the time uh i'm very lucky in our building because i'm in a wing here of the building that's like four other studios and nobody comes down here like nobody ever bothers me and i love that and because sales people just heard that i know they're gonna come down here and bother me don't um so i bring my dog all the time and we started getting new employees around here new bosses new employees know everything and pre-covid it was pretty common for me to bring my dog all the time post-covid don't have the same bosses don't have the same co-workers like it wasn't it wasn't explicitly said that i couldn't bring her back but it was implied that like she shouldn't come back post-covid and i um Didn't listen to that Uh oh Right So I brought her in And I totally got caught And I totally Got yelled at For bringing her in But she doesn't bother She sits in my room with me And she doesn't bother Any many And I don't I don't care about My other co-workers I just don't care If they want her there or not But I was wondering I sneak her in all the time There's gotta be other people Sneaking stuff into their jobs That their bosses Don't know about

Yeah Shannon's doing that In her Yeti cup over there i wish i would trust me you know i would just tell you at this point

um this with covid is also interesting because a lot of companies had policies that they were doing for a couple of years yeah that now they're like all right you know we're done with this but the megan thing is an interesting one because for those that don't know this about the toledo market We in Detroit and Mike in Grand Rapids, Mike's had the same boss in Grand Rapids now for well over a decade. Tim's been the boss there forever. So Tim's rules have kind of lived on for the time that he's been there. We've kind of gone through different bosses here. We went from Nick to Paul to now Colleen. And they're all very similar managers as far as the rules that they have. Megan has had a vast variety of bosses in Toledo. Toledo is the place that people stop in for a visit, and then it's almost like they go to the bathroom, maybe grab a beverage, and then hit the road again and go to the next city. And your rules change because you've had bosses that were like, they would throw parties every week. You would bring your dog in. You could actually, people would, they would, My favorite was that you guys would rent out or sell parking spots during Mud Hens games to make money for the slush fund.

I love that you guys did that.

But what happens when a new boss comes in, all of a sudden a new boss is like, how did they get away with that?

Yeah, well, you guys know Shosh. Shosh was the one that was like, bring your dog in. This is going to be great. Oh, yeah. As soon as she left, I was like, I'm still going to bring her out for day so nobody can tell me that I can't. But this is the first time where we have, like, a bunch of new people. And it is frustrating getting new bosses all of the time because I, what is it? I've had five bosses in six years here. Yeah. Like, it's been absolutely kind of insane how many I've had. And every time it's a culture change, every time it's a rule change, it just, it kind of sucks.

So it's interesting because as somebody that has come into a radio station when we started here on Channel 955, which was Q95 at the time.

It was the stuffiest workplace I had ever been working in in my life.

Didn't they make you wear suits? They wanted us to dress up for on the air. Maybe not suits, but they wanted us to dress professionally. No. Even though nobody was seeing us. This was before the days of webcams.

And then bosses changed. And all of a sudden, when we saw Dom Theodore walk in with his Disney Mickey Mouse T-shirts and stuff, we were like, oh, this is great. We don't have to dress up anymore. The bosses are different. But I couldn't imagine going reverse. no like could you imagine not now all of a sudden if we had a you know guy thank god that colleen's

our boss well like she's the coolest but a lot of people want to come in and put their stamp on their name on things and say i'm in charge we're going to change things up here without really even really getting in the trenches to see what needs to be changed because they just want to put their stamp on the product and like that's why i love colleen our newest boss is like let's she's going to talk to everybody sit back see what people need and she's not just out to like i'm in charge now Let's put my name on it Like she's like What do you guys need

Okay I'm gonna be the person Who is gonna say The absolute opposite And say that I agree With the boss Who says don't bring your dog Are you scared of dogs Are you allergic I'm not scared of dogs I'm severely Severely allergic To the point where I cannot do my work And if someone brings their pet And even if the pet isn't there It leaves their dander And hair And stuff behind And I Like my nose is so sensitive That I will like It will just be Like intolerable I'm kind of with you

I know that some people People have super severe allergies. I totally get that. Actually, my uncle does. I get it. Part of the reason I got my dog is because she's supposed to be one of the ones that doesn't affect people as much. She's also super low-maintenance. That's why I was a lazy dog.

Can I tell you, I only didn't like dogs in the office when Fletch had- Oh, my God. Addie. Yeah, oh, my God. That was the dirtiest dog. Addie. Or Ellie. Ellie.

He had Ellie and Addie.

Okay. Whatever dog he had, he had not bathed that dog in forever. Or maybe it was Fletch.

Remember, he would take his shoes and socks off and put them up on the couch. That's true. We don't know what it was.

I apologize to Ellie and Addie. Yeah, I don't know. What's going on, Joe?

Hey, what's going on, guys?

Hey, we're talking about how Megan's got new bosses and she has to sneak her dog into work now, where before they used to be able to just bring their dogs to work?

Yeah, so first off, I want to say good choice in the school, Luke. I'm a senior at MSU, so go green. Ah, thank you. Go white. Also, so early on in my military career, I'm still in the military right now. Very early on, though, I volunteered to do a recruiting event, and me and my girlfriend had just got a dog, and she was at work all day. So I was like, you know what? Why not? The kids, the high schoolers would love to see a dog. I didn't tell anybody I was bringing it in. Then I didn't know they were bringing a helicopter, and so I told my friends, I was like, oh, I'm going to double down and try to bring my dog in a helicopter. So I snuck him in my coat. I snuck him. Keep in mind, he's only a week old. I snuck him in my coat, and the helicopter went up, and then eventually he started barking, and they found out he was on the helicopter while it was already midair. Oh, my gosh.

If you didn't name that dog Chopper.

we flew from uh from the taylor armory all the way up to grayling down to detroit and then back and then i uh i posted them on my instagram and that's how i got caught by my higher-ups too because they reposted me on the national guard page oh my gosh so what did they do what kind of punishment did you get i didn't punish me they like me too much they couldn't punish me

it's always bragging rights when they start a whole new work policy based around you

I was going to say, here you are sneaking your dog in and putting it on a helicopter and posting it on your social media. Like, the thing that you're going to get yourself in trouble for.

Well, thank God it wasn't Megan in that helicopter because, as you know, her dog needs to stand on you and stand on the equipment and stand on the table. Shut up.

It's like not everybody saw the TikTok, all right?

Stop. That helicopter would be down.

What's going on, Callie?

i i was gone because my dog goes to work with me every morning we did this when she was even a pup so i've worked at the same place for five years now and you guys are okay doing that yeah she all the customers love it she plays football with the customers she goes up and just wags her tail she's there every single morning with us and if she's not there then people ask where she's at. Yes.

Do people get like that with you, Megan, if you don't bring...

Pre-COVID, they did. So we would have like these... What are those monthly meetings we would have? They were like those stupid two-hour calls. Like all on death or something. Yeah, and she would go to those, and she would crawl from person to person, and she would sit...

on their lap and fall asleep for like 20 minutes and then she'd go to the next person then she'd go to the next person so for a long time like she was pretty comfortable around here and then uh yeah any day i didn't bring her in people would be like where's your i would go to talk to a co-worker about you know a client whatever it was they'd be like where's your dog okay well i have an issue with this and i need to know about this email yeah but where's the dog like the dog was

more popular around here than me question for kp because kp uh said that you know dogs uh she's not big on dogs bringing the... What about people who bring their kids to work? What about those?

Kids don't shed as bad as dogs do.

Kids, I will tell you, kids sometimes are noisier. It's survival. If I'm quieter than normal, I've snuck my kids in here, just so you know. That is actually true. I remember one time I was like, where's my cat right now? Because Cecily was very talkative in the studio one day.
