Speaker 1: Plus on the Morning show to bring this story up.
Speaker 1: I was just reading it on Reddit. I like to
Speaker 1: start my day on my toilet looking at Reddit and
Speaker 1: seeing what people are talking about. It's honestly something that
Speaker 1: gets me feeling good. And nothing gets a good poop
Speaker 1: out and looking at other people's stuff or am I
Speaker 1: the a holes on Reddit? So tell me if you
Speaker 1: guys hate the idea that restaurants will put an automatic
Speaker 1: twenty percent on your bill for a tip.
Speaker 2: Do you guys hate that idea? I don't mind it
Speaker 2: because that's probably what I'm giving anyway.
Speaker 3: Unless the service is like amazing, I'll add to it.
Speaker 1: But you say, like already included on the check, gratuities
Speaker 1: on the check, But they don't tell.
Speaker 2: You all the time. See I always check. Now, Yeah,
Speaker 2: you got to because you got to look for services.
Speaker 1: I saw it, by the way, when we were in
Speaker 1: Chicago last week, that restaurant that we went to in Chicago,
Speaker 1: I saw on the bill that we had there was
Speaker 1: a twelve dollars Detroit clean fee. Basically it was the
Speaker 1: it called it. They call this some kind of Detroit
Speaker 1: clean fIF fee. But it was like it was not
Speaker 1: tax or anything like that. It was like a fee
Speaker 1: that they have for that. Did you also know this?
Speaker 1: Just notice in Chicago they give they charge you for bags.
Speaker 2: Did you see that?
Speaker 1: If you know if you go to a store, if
Speaker 1: you go to a store, they'll say, would you like
Speaker 1: this in a bag? I'm like looking, going why would
Speaker 1: I not wanted a bag? I bought like four bottles
Speaker 1: of water? How am I going to carry four bottles
Speaker 1: of water like in my arm?
Speaker 2: Like them? They charge? I charge h and M does charge.
Speaker 3: It's like I noticed one of the restaurants we went
Speaker 3: to in Chicago, they already had like a twenty five
Speaker 3: percent tip added and it was like additional tip.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was like, no, okay, So you guys tell me
Speaker 1: that you you like it, you like the idea of.
Speaker 2: That, because I don't mind.
Speaker 4: It's okay, but it will dictate how much I'll add
Speaker 4: on top of it. If you're already getting twenty then
Speaker 4: I'm not about to put another twenty percent on it.
Speaker 1: So do you if you see that right away, do
Speaker 1: you then automatically just go you're you know, and you
Speaker 1: it out to them, or do you.
Speaker 4: Say that's their business, that's their business. I'm just going
Speaker 4: to control what I can control, which is how much
Speaker 4: more I put on it.
Speaker 2: So listen to this story that I read, and read it.
Speaker 1: A customer removed the twenty percent tip, actually removed it,
Speaker 1: said I'm not paying it, and his reasoning behind it
Speaker 1: was honestly not great. It was actually bad. The restaurant
Speaker 1: server story is on Reddit right now, sparking a big
Speaker 1: debate about the whole idea of putting the actual tip
Speaker 1: on there. But the woman shared to Reddit that she
Speaker 1: served a family at a large table and the father
Speaker 1: crossed out the four hundred and fifty dollars built in tip.
Speaker 2: Wow, how much of it.
Speaker 5: Bail?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, No, it's a four hundred and fifty dollars
Speaker 1: bills built in tip. So what would that twenty percent page?
Speaker 1: A four hundred and fifty dollars.
Speaker 2: Bucks? Is that ninety dollars? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Claiming the big brain on bread, claiming poor service, even
Speaker 1: though the only mistake was from the kitchen. He later
Speaker 1: told the manager her piercings were trashy and that she
Speaker 1: shouldn't work in such a nice place. The case has
Speaker 1: highlighted the experience that people have where they feel like
Speaker 1: bold enough to be able to talk about somebody's apparents,
Speaker 1: but also brought up a lot of people talking about
Speaker 1: the idea of twenty percent on there and people putting
Speaker 1: twenty percent or restaurants putting twenty percent.
Speaker 2: He was just it.
Speaker 3: I do find myself because twenty percent is just standard
Speaker 3: to me. Even if I have the crappiest service, I
Speaker 3: still feel obligated to put twenty percent down.
Speaker 2: Do you guys feel that same way, like you had
Speaker 2: to you better be at least twenty percent.
Speaker 1: Really, you don't do it at least twenty percent even
Speaker 1: if it's bad service, you got put twenty No, I
Speaker 1: don't really, which I.
Speaker 4: Hate that I do that way. Oh you just say
Speaker 4: bad service. It's a great experience. Yeah, my floor is
Speaker 4: twenty percent. We may go higher if it's bad service.
Speaker 4: I'm not about to feel guilted into doing it if
Speaker 4: it was really bad.
Speaker 2: Would you not tip at all? No, I'll always too.
Speaker 6: If they're having a bad day at work, just like
Speaker 6: we have bad days on the radio, and you're still
Speaker 6: getting paid the same.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm not getting paid extra. The tip is extra. No,
Speaker 2: the tip is how they make their money.
Speaker 4: Going with your analogy, I'm not getting anything extra. They're
Speaker 4: getting extra by my tip. No, but I think what
Speaker 4: an as saying that the tip is what they do
Speaker 4: for their analogy is if I come to work and
Speaker 4: do my job on the radio, I'm getting paid. That's
Speaker 4: my salary. If they go to work and they do
Speaker 4: their job, they get paid.
Speaker 2: I'm not getting thing. But what if you have a
Speaker 2: bad day, That's what I'm saying. I'm not getting anything
Speaker 2: extra all right.
Speaker 1: By the way, Kevin never has a bad day day,
Speaker 1: He's good.
Speaker 2: What's up, Lisahi?
Speaker 5: Hey, so I'm in Toledo and we have our burger
Speaker 5: review guy, and he was at Jay Alexander's doing review
Speaker 5: and they charged for the carry out?
Speaker 2: Can oh how much I was?
Speaker 5: It was just under two dollars from what I remember.
Speaker 2: Can I tell you just say a lot? Can I
Speaker 2: tell you something? Though?
Speaker 1: The containers at Jay Alexander's are really like nice containers.
Speaker 2: I know it's weird to say this.
Speaker 5: Really they really are. But I'd rather just have a
Speaker 5: basic container not be.
Speaker 2: Charged for it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't use diyrofoam stuff. They use like these plastic,
Speaker 1: nice little containers and stuff.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I always get myself when I when I'm eating there,
Speaker 1: and alex salad. I love their salads. That's really good.
Speaker 4: That's the thing though, if Jay Alexander in particular, just
Speaker 4: using them as an example, So that's what we're on.
Speaker 4: If they want to provide a certain experience, that should
Speaker 4: be on them. I should have to pay for them
Speaker 4: to provide me a good experience.
Speaker 1: That should just be what they do. Crystal, what's up,
Speaker 1: it's moch on the morning?
Speaker 2: High good morning.
Speaker 5: Sometimes when they have the built in tip, they give
Speaker 5: you crappy service because they.
Speaker 2: Know automatically they're going to get that twenty twenty five.
Speaker 1: I wonder if that's the case. That seems very It's interesting.
Speaker 1: I bet you that there's a little bit of truth
Speaker 1: to that. You know that they know they're already going
Speaker 1: to get their tip. I don't like.
Speaker 6: You're waiting for and then you're waiting for water or
Speaker 6: next to coke or bread or whatever you need.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because they already know what they're going to get
Speaker 1: out of it. Taylor, what's up, it's moje in the morning. Hi.
Speaker 6: I just wanted to say, I totally agree with you, Kevin,
Speaker 6: because honestly, like you got that waitress job knowing that
Speaker 6: that's the amount you're baked. You are making extra money
Speaker 6: based off your tips. So if you're gonna be rude
Speaker 6: or you're not gonna make sure I have my silverware
Speaker 6: or extra napkins or make sure my drink filled, Like, No,
Speaker 6: I'm not obligated to feel bad about not giving you
Speaker 6: extra money because I came here to be served and
Speaker 6: you're not doing what I asked you to do.
Speaker 1: Wow, it's It's interesting because I always thought that they don't.
Speaker 1: They only make like a minimum couple dollars an hour
Speaker 1: or something like that, like a nominal fee. I thought
Speaker 1: that the tip was their money.
Speaker 6: I've worked as a waitress myself, and that it's the deal.
Speaker 6: You come in making a certain amount of money, your
Speaker 6: tips aren't essentially supposed to make up for that. And
Speaker 6: at the end of the year when you do your taxes,
Speaker 6: what happened is the government makes up for any money
Speaker 6: that you would have potentially made, the make up for
Speaker 6: the minimum.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Morgan disagrees with you. Morgan, what'd you
Speaker 1: want to say?
Speaker 2: Hey, Actually, the same thing you said a minute ago.
Speaker 2: They don't make a lot of money at all. You
Speaker 2: may have a day where you make almost nothing.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's not I'm not arguing that that's I understand that.
Speaker 4: What I'm saying is, if you give bad service, just
Speaker 4: because you make a lot of money on the tips
Speaker 4: that I provide doesn't mean it I should feel obligated
Speaker 4: to tip you higher.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. Agree with that, Yeah, yea, I
Speaker 2: will say this.
Speaker 1: During this whole thing, the only thing that caught my
Speaker 1: ear was that Bianca's playing video games over there in
Speaker 1: the corner.
Speaker 2: I thought that was probably video games.
Speaker 1: I'm like, all of a sudden, going, wait a second,
Speaker 1: I think this topic is overlooked.
Speaker 2: WUS being man
