>> STEVEN: Even though SourceFed was ending,

it was nice to know everything was staying the same.

>> Steven, I've been -- I've been trapped here all weekend.

Please, help me get down.

No, No, NO!

[ door closing ]

>> STEVEN: For some of our untalented employees,

it was interesting to see what they had planned for the future.

>> I dunno what I'm going to do now.

[ cheery music ] >> STEVEN: Hm! Yikes. Kind of a bummer for that guy!

One of our studio techs, Zack Taylor, on the other hand,

was taking initiative.

>> STEVEN: Actually, it was just okay.

I decided to go around the office testing everyone's ability to find a new job.

The test involved employees stating three things they're good at in a matter of twenty seconds.

[ blowing contemplatively ]

>> Talking...

sss... swimming...

runn...ing >> STEVEN (voiceover): Pretty good, dude.

That was good.

>> Design, editing, typography!

>> STEVEN: Hired!

Three things you're good at, go!

>> Drawing, illustration, graphic design.

>> STEVEN (voiceover): With Chris's consistently snarky attitude,

I was really hoping he wasn't going to be able to answer in time.

Camera work, lighting, audio.

>> STEVEN: (softly) fine.

>> Uh, not having a job, getting fired,

and uhhhhh

♪ being a new unemployed boy! ♪

>> STEVEN: Fired?

>> Everything, nothing, and most things.

>>STEVEN: Fired.

>> Uh, production, lighting, audio.

>> STEVEN: That's the same things Chris said, you can't double dip.

>> Well, I'm like Chris -- >> STEVEN: Nope!

>> but... >> STEVEN: Nope.

>> A little... like, an inch taller.

>> Licking, he's good at licking. >> Licking.

>> STEVEN: Hired.

>> Cooking, eating, sleeping. Goodbye.

>> STEVEN: (softly) fired.

>> You take my firing back, Steven Suptic.

You're just a chicken boy with a camera.

I'm a boy with a PRACTICE SWORD!

>> STEVEN: You're dangerous, you're hired, you're hired!

>> Cool, thanks. What's my salary?

>> STEVEN: fourt (?)

>> STEVEN: I'ma chase ya, I'ma chase ya! >> No, don't you chase me!

>> STEVEN: Oh, you're a little boy and I'm gonna chase ya!

>> STEVEN (voiceover): I realized there was still time left before we were shooting

the announcement video for the end of SourceFed.

I used my time to the best of my ability.

>> (softly) man, that's... all falling apart.

>> STEVEN: Hello, Sam. >> Oh, my god--

>> Ahhh!

>> STEVEN: You know, one question that I really think deserves an answer

and I don't think anybody knows,

is how does this office keep spreading diseases so easily?

>> That was fuckin' gross, dude, Jesus.

>> STEVEN: I know what you're thinking.

Are people really okay with you filming them

during such an emotionally draining process?

>> Okay, I get that you're trying to document

what's happening here for personal gain.

But...

I want some too.

>> I hope you make a good bit of money off of...

filiming all these people who just lost their jobs.

I hope you make a nice little bit so you can pay off the government for your fuckup.

>> STEVEN: Clearly, some people were very jealous

of my enormous wealth.

While others took things more seriously.

[ click ] >> Oh.

[ fart ]

>> STEVEN: Unfortunately, that was a lot more dangerous of a fart

[laughing] than he thought it was gonna be.

>> And that was the last we saw of Rickey Mizuno.

>> Guys, we need to have our Oddity meeting...

for the next three months of Oddity? [ crowd goes 'aww' ]

>> And that was the last we saw of Joel.

And that was the last we saw of Audrey.

We would, however, see Sofia again.

>> STEVEN: Are you working on SourceFed stuff?

>> No, no.

I'm uh... messaging everyone I know...

asking for a job.

>> STEVEN: Eric's comment about reaching out to friends made me realize,

I have a lot of connections in the YouTube industry.

I decided to reach out to a previous SourceFed employee for help.

>> IAN: Hey, Suptic.

>> STEVEN: Hey, Ian.

>> IAN: What's up?

>> STEVEN: You hear the news?

>> IAN: [deep breath] That SourceFed's cancelled?

>> STEVEN: Yeah. So I just figured I'd just call you and see how, um,

how Life Noggin's doin'.

>> IAN: Good. It's doing good.

>> STEVEN: Yeah, I'm not really the kind of guy to beg on my feet,

but um, do you have, do you have a --

Please give me a job.

>> IAN: Uh huh? >> STEVEN: I'll get back -- You'll get back --

I'll get it.

>> STEVEN: Alright I got the job, thank you. Thank you. >> IAN: Someone will reach out --

(whispering) You got me fired, you son of a bitch.

>> Well, maybe you should have done a better... w-work.

>> STEVEN: Hmmm! Maybe I should have done a better work!

That's when I found a telephoto lens lying around

and after all these months, I was finally able to spy on Luis.

Here's footage of Sofia destroying her paper trail.

>> JOEL: No, I mean...

[ quiet guitar music ] It does suck, because...

We were doing really well.

I mean, we had the most growth...

like, the most sustained, over five months of growth

for the first time since 2013 on the channel?

I'm looking at the subscriber analytics right now.

And we haven't had this...

...good of subscriber numbers...

and I don't even remember how long,

I mean, At least since...

Maybe... July?

>> STEVEN: Filip wrote a 17-page script

that I'm sure everybody was very excited to film

during their last week.

(stupid voice) Dear guinea pigs,

I'm Matt Lieberman --

I realized that I actually wasn't doing any work.

>> MIKE: Hello?

Hey, how are you?

>> STEVEN: (whispering) Stop touching -- fuck --

>> STEVEN: Now watch as Mike leaves the room. He's obviously on the phone,

However, as it turns out, it's just a bit!

Mike's actually calling ME!

How funny is that? I think that's so funny.

>> Oh yeah, that's so crazy that...

Yeah, Mike. Um... I'll --

Yeah, I'll be there.

When -- Yeah, your birthday, yeah.

Yeah, I'll be there.

Yeah, always... Mike. Falzone!

Hmm.

All's well that ends well, I guess, so...

[voice breaking] friends for life.

>> STEVEN: Look at this little punk-ass little bitch wearing the same shirt as me,

Making my day fuckin'... even worse.

>> STEVEN: Alright, so are there any requests? Any songs in particular?

>> Shooting stars.

>> Shooting stars, who's that by?

>> (softly) I don't know... >> Ah, I know that one! Here we go!

[ HUUUUUUH. HUUUH HUUH ]

[ DRUM BEATS AND HORRIFYING ANIMAL NOISES ]

So right here. This is about the point I stopped having fun for the day,

and started recognizing that everything was going to end.

>> STEVEN: This obviously seems very abrasive.

Filming people while they're eating -- it was,

but everybody was a good sport about it and

After this week I dunno when I'll be able to see these guys again.

I'm sure most of us are going to go our separate ways.

But at the end of the day, you can't count on a company, or another person.

You just have yourself.

But when you're feeling lonely out there, and you miss your old co-worker Steve

It'll be easy to look back on these videos and remember working for a channel called SourceFed.

And maybe a couple years later, you'll shoot me a text, and we'll get a beer,

and talk about the old times. Or maybe our chapter's done.

Whatever the case, it was a pleasure working with all of you.

I'm an only child, and I don't know if this is what having brothers and sisters is like, but it'll do.
