00:00I'll take over from here.

00:19Thank you for covering for me. Sorry I was late.

00:30You find all this a little boring?

00:34Or do you already know all this stuff?

00:39It's okay. I find it a little bit boring.

00:42It is.

00:44That's up to you.

00:49You know what true boredom looks like?

00:52Your life in five years' time, and you realize you haven't paid attention.

00:58And you find yourself working for other people.

01:01Likely a middle management person who takes out their frustrations and their despair on you.

01:07While you're trying to sell products and services that you don't care about.

01:11There's some multinational corporation who doesn't actually give flying fucks.

01:18Excuse my language. If you exist.

01:20But I care.

01:22Because for this fleeting moment...

01:25What's your name?

01:26Riley.

01:27That's right. Riley.

01:29For this fleeting moment, Riley and everybody else who's still on your phones, put them away.

01:33You get to sit in a classroom and ponder the mysteries of our existence.

01:40And that is great.

01:42Now...

01:45I'm not expecting you to understand everything.

01:49I'm not a cruel man.

01:52But I do expect you to respect the opportunity.

01:58And pay attention.

02:00That's all.
