WEBVTT 00:00:07.048 --> 00:00:10.010 align:center The revelations from the peyote trip I had back in the '80s 00:00:10.093 --> 00:00:11.428 align:center stayed with me. 00:00:11.511 --> 00:00:14.014 align:center It gave me a strong desire to find work. 00:00:14.097 --> 00:00:18.101 align:center I applied for several jobs but received only negative responses. 00:00:18.184 --> 00:00:21.396 align:center Everywhere I went, the door was shut in my face, except for one. 00:00:21.479 --> 00:00:23.815 align:center So, Augusto, I came here to ask for your help, 00:00:23.898 --> 00:00:26.234 align:center because, out of all of the parents of my friends from school, 00:00:26.317 --> 00:00:28.611 align:center you were the only one who never turned your back on me. 00:00:28.695 --> 00:00:31.322 align:center Aren't you a student? You're at university. 00:00:32.073 --> 00:00:35.493 align:center Yes. But I can arrange my course schedule to work here part-time. 00:00:36.369 --> 00:00:40.165 align:center I really need this, Augusto. It's urgent. Otherwise, I wouldn't be here. 00:00:41.082 --> 00:00:42.917 align:center Look, Eva, I would love to help you, 00:00:43.001 --> 00:00:46.838 align:center but other than my secretary, who's been with me for 30 years, 00:00:46.921 --> 00:00:50.300 align:center and the coffee lady, which obviously is not a job I would offer you, 00:00:50.383 --> 00:00:52.635 align:center I really don't know what else you could do here. 00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:54.846 align:center This is a car dealership. 00:00:55.638 --> 00:00:57.056 align:center Well, I can sell cars. 00:00:59.100 --> 00:01:02.771 align:center Well, I'm sorry to say, but selling cars isn't a job for a woman. 00:01:03.480 --> 00:01:06.566 align:center -Why not? -Tell me. What do you know about cars? 00:01:06.649 --> 00:01:09.402 align:center Okay, fine. I don't know much about cars. But I learn fast. 00:01:09.486 --> 00:01:12.447 align:center Look, having the first car saleswoman in the country 00:01:12.530 --> 00:01:14.783 align:center could be a huge advantage for this dealership. 00:01:14.866 --> 00:01:15.825 align:center Thought about that? 00:01:15.909 --> 00:01:19.287 align:center Take a look. This right here is the gearbox. This… 00:01:19.370 --> 00:01:21.164 align:center It's true that, in the early '80s, 00:01:21.247 --> 00:01:23.625 align:center selling cars was still considered a man's job. 00:01:23.708 --> 00:01:28.379 align:center So having a woman work at a dealership was highly unusual. It wasn't easy for me. 00:01:28.463 --> 00:01:30.423 align:center But I stuck with it and did my homework, 00:01:30.507 --> 00:01:32.759 align:center and, eventually, I passed the induction course 00:01:32.842 --> 00:01:34.969 align:center that was required for all future salespeople. 00:01:35.053 --> 00:01:38.640 align:center It offers increased fuel efficiency and a smoother shifting experience. 00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:58.660 align:center EVA LASTING 00:02:08.837 --> 00:02:13.633 align:center "FOR A CRITIQUE OF THE POLITICAL ECONOMY OF THE SIGN" 00:02:13.716 --> 00:02:15.677 align:center "EPISODE 7" 00:02:15.760 --> 00:02:18.513 align:center Once I was on the floor, it became my mission to prove 00:02:18.596 --> 00:02:21.558 align:center that a woman could do this job just as well as any man. 00:02:21.641 --> 00:02:23.977 align:center So I watched what they did and read as much as I could 00:02:24.060 --> 00:02:27.188 align:center so that I could become the best salesperson in the world. 00:02:27.272 --> 00:02:30.441 align:center And after a week of training, with the catalog under my arm, 00:02:30.525 --> 00:02:32.193 align:center I made my debut in the working world. 00:02:32.277 --> 00:02:33.403 align:center Hi there.

No problem. 00:02:59.179 --> 00:03:01.931 align:center I'll have the coffee lady get you a cup while you browse the floor. 00:03:02.015 --> 00:03:05.310 align:center No, I was asking if you had any questions about this car. 00:03:05.810 --> 00:03:08.104 align:center -Yes, I… I am a saleswoman. -Are you now? 00:03:08.813 --> 00:03:10.064 align:center Yep, I am. 00:03:10.148 --> 00:03:13.651 align:center Now, this here is a great car, and the gas mileage is excellent. 00:03:13.735 --> 00:03:14.819 align:center If you want, I can help you. 00:03:15.403 --> 00:03:18.615 align:center Thank you for your assistance, and please don't take this the wrong way, 00:03:18.698 --> 00:03:20.825 align:center but I'd rather be assisted by a man. 00:03:20.909 --> 00:03:22.911 align:center Anyway, I will take that coffee, though. 00:03:26.664 --> 00:03:30.209 align:center Machismo can really make life difficult for a woman in the workplace. 00:03:31.252 --> 00:03:32.170 align:center Mm. 00:03:32.253 --> 00:03:34.339 align:center Sorry. 00:03:34.422 --> 00:03:36.424 align:center But how can I not pay attention? 00:03:36.507 --> 00:03:38.593 align:center -That guy refuses to talk to a woman? -Yeah. 00:03:38.676 --> 00:03:41.179 align:center Well, it's all part of the job, I suppose. 00:03:41.262 --> 00:03:43.139 align:center I'll tell you, if I were in your shoes… 00:03:43.222 --> 00:03:45.642 align:center …I would have choked him out and beat his ass. 00:03:45.725 --> 00:03:47.685 align:center No, I wanted to.

But you know what was even more awful? 00:04:19.968 --> 00:04:21.511 align:center The misogyny of the women as well. 00:04:21.594 --> 00:04:23.763 align:center Seriously, if it hadn't been for that saleswoman, 00:04:23.846 --> 00:04:25.390 align:center I don't know what I would have done. 00:04:25.890 --> 00:04:28.184 align:center But I… I don't understand. Did she buy a car? 00:04:30.520 --> 00:04:34.607 align:center I need a car that's practical, dependable, looks good, and affordable. 00:04:34.691 --> 00:04:36.109 align:center But you understand. 00:04:36.192 --> 00:04:37.819 align:center I need a car for my job. That's really it. 00:04:37.902 --> 00:04:39.737 align:center Well, let's do it.

We'll pay for it over three years. 00:05:03.303 --> 00:05:06.180 align:center It's in very low installments.

Thanks very much for your help. 00:06:00.401 --> 00:06:02.779 align:center This gentleman is going to go with this. 00:06:02.862 --> 00:06:05.365 align:center And the worst part is, right now, you're precisely the ones 00:06:05.448 --> 00:06:08.201 align:center who are reinforcing these stupid sexist stereotypes, 00:06:08.284 --> 00:06:10.328 align:center all over something as mundane as buying a car. 00:06:10.411 --> 00:06:11.746 align:center Isn't the car for you? 00:06:11.829 --> 00:06:14.791 align:center Then why do you have to ask your husbands for permission? 00:06:14.874 --> 00:06:16.376 align:center -Come on. We're leaving. -Hold on. Wait. 00:06:16.459 --> 00:06:19.295 align:center -I'm telling you this for your own good! -How disrespectful. 00:06:23.591 --> 00:06:25.968 align:center -Congratulations, sir. -Thank you again for all your help. 00:06:26.052 --> 00:06:29.055 align:center -No, the other one. -We're really happy with this one. 00:06:29.138 --> 00:06:31.099 align:center Thanks so much. 00:06:31.182 --> 00:06:33.017 align:center -Do you like it? -Oh! 00:06:33.101 --> 00:06:34.769 align:center -Hey, you! -Hello. What's up? 00:06:34.852 --> 00:06:37.688 align:center Fine. Very well. Thanks. And how are you? Better? 00:06:38.189 --> 00:06:40.274 align:center Okay. Doing okay, I guess. 00:06:40.358 --> 00:06:42.693 align:center Oh no, Eva. I'm sorry to hear that. 00:06:42.777 --> 00:06:45.530 align:center I'm here to collect the monthly payment for your encyclopedia. 00:06:45.613 --> 00:06:48.950 align:center -Please tell me you have the money ready. -I thought… Wasn't it tomorrow? 00:06:49.033 --> 00:06:50.785 align:center Not tomorrow. 00:06:50.868 --> 00:06:51.744 align:center It's today. 00:06:53.788 --> 00:06:55.998 align:center -What do you mean, "quit"? -Yeah. 00:06:56.082 --> 00:06:58.251 align:center Camilo, in the two weeks I've been at that dealership, 00:06:58.334 --> 00:06:59.836 align:center I haven't sold a single car. 00:06:59.919 --> 00:07:01.462 align:center All I've done is buy an encyclopedia 00:07:01.546 --> 00:07:03.923 align:center that we're gonna have to pay off for three years. 00:07:04.465 --> 00:07:06.300 align:center And the only reason they don't fire me 00:07:06.384 --> 00:07:09.053 align:center is because I was friends with the owner's daughter. 00:07:09.137 --> 00:07:12.348 align:center Yeah, but nobody said it was gonna be easy. 00:07:14.725 --> 00:07:17.311 align:center I know, but this is impossible. 00:07:18.896 --> 00:07:19.939 align:center I don't know. 00:07:21.149 --> 00:07:22.024 align:center I… 00:07:22.525 --> 00:07:24.610 align:center I'm realizing that I don't have any real skills 00:07:24.694 --> 00:07:26.571 align:center outside of talking about books. 00:07:26.654 --> 00:07:27.905 align:center No. 00:07:28.698 --> 00:07:31.993 align:center No, it's true. I don't have a place in the real world. 00:07:32.076 --> 00:07:34.370 align:center Oh, come on, Eva. Don't talk like that. 00:07:34.454 --> 00:07:36.914 align:center Camilo, I'm just being honest with you. 00:07:37.832 --> 00:07:40.877 align:center I feel totally lost, trying to sell people cars. 00:07:40.960 --> 00:07:41.836 align:center Yeah, but… 00:07:41.919 --> 00:07:45.047 align:center As a woman, they treat me like a novelty, but I'm useless. 00:07:45.131 --> 00:07:48.217 align:center The only reason they hired me is because I was friends with the owners' daughter. 00:07:48.301 --> 00:07:50.428 align:center -That's all. -I know things are difficult right now. 00:07:50.511 --> 00:07:52.805 align:center But you can't let yourself feel defeated. 00:07:53.639 --> 00:07:56.559 align:center You have to understand that making a living is not easy 00:07:57.059 --> 00:07:59.854 align:center and that holding down a job involves a lot of things. 00:07:59.937 --> 00:08:02.231 align:center It takes energy, patience, 00:08:03.483 --> 00:08:05.401 align:center persistence, tenacity, 00:08:05.985 --> 00:08:10.198 align:center but above all else, the ability to bounce back. 00:08:11.491 --> 00:08:12.825 align:center If you quit your job now, 00:08:12.909 --> 00:08:15.453 align:center it's not gonna make you feel any better about yourself. 00:08:15.536 --> 00:08:17.496 align:center It's only going to reinforce this idea you have 00:08:17.580 --> 00:08:21.209 align:center that you don't belong in this real world, which is bullshit. 00:08:21.709 --> 00:08:23.377 align:center I could try something else. 00:08:23.461 --> 00:08:27.131 align:center That's true. But why don't you try giving this job your all first? 00:08:27.215 --> 00:08:28.966 align:center -No, I don't want to. -Yes. 00:08:29.050 --> 00:08:32.261 align:center If you quit this job, let it be because you realize you've outgrown it. 00:08:32.845 --> 00:08:36.098 align:center Hmm? You've always known how to make people listen to you. 00:08:36.182 --> 00:08:38.351 align:center Why do you think this job is any different? Huh? 00:08:38.851 --> 00:08:42.188 align:center It's funny, I've been working at this dealership for over two weeks now 00:08:42.271 --> 00:08:44.190 align:center and I still haven't sold a single car. 00:08:44.273 --> 00:08:45.358 align:center Do you know why? 00:08:45.441 --> 00:08:48.277 align:center Because many people think that women don't know about cars. 00:08:48.361 --> 00:08:51.989 align:center But that's simply a prejudice people have because we live in a patriarchy. 00:08:52.073 --> 00:08:54.408 align:center So, please, allow me to give you a demonstration 00:08:54.492 --> 00:08:56.369 align:center and judge for yourself, okay? 00:08:56.452 --> 00:08:58.079 align:center This is the Dodge Coronet. 00:08:58.162 --> 00:09:00.164 align:center It's the latest we have in American vehicles. 00:09:00.248 --> 00:09:02.667 align:center If you want, go ahead, sit down.

Yeah? 00:18:52.256 --> 00:18:53.549 align:center Sure. Fine. 00:18:53.632 --> 00:18:58.137 align:center Camilo really liked that crib. But, to me, it was in poor taste. 00:18:58.220 --> 00:19:00.139 align:center And, although I never said it out loud, 00:19:00.222 --> 00:19:02.933 align:center he knew right away that I thought it looked tacky. 00:19:05.185 --> 00:19:08.522 align:center And here we have the cutest guy in the whole house. 00:19:08.605 --> 00:19:09.606 align:center Hi, Schopenhauer. 00:19:09.690 --> 00:19:11.942 align:center However, that experience didn't deter him 00:19:12.025 --> 00:19:14.444 align:center from voicing his opinion on everything else. 00:19:14.528 --> 00:19:17.990 align:center In the end, we arrived at a kind of design compromise for the room 00:19:18.073 --> 00:19:20.951 align:center that was the synthesis of our differing class backgrounds. 00:19:21.034 --> 00:19:23.495 align:center -Ta-da! -Say hi, Eva.
