Speaker 1: Oje in the Morning show. Uh, 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, uh, feeling good and nothing gets a good
Speaker 1: poop out then looking at other people's stuff or am
Speaker 1: I the a holes on Reddit? So tell me if
Speaker 1: you guys hate the idea that restaurants will put an
Speaker 1: automatic twenty percent on your bill for a tip.
Speaker 2: Do you guys hate that idea?
Speaker 3: I don't mind it because that's probably what I'm giving anyway.
Speaker 3: Unless the service is like amazing, I'll add to it.
Speaker 4: But you say, like already included on the check, gratuities
Speaker 4: on the check.
Speaker 2: But they don't tell you all the time. See I
Speaker 2: always check.
Speaker 1: Now, Yeah, you got to because you got to look
Speaker 1: for services. I saw it, by the way, when we
Speaker 1: were in Chicago last week. The restaurant that we went
Speaker 1: to in Chicago, I saw on the bill that we
Speaker 1: had there was a twelve dollars Detroit clean fee.
Speaker 2: Basically it was there was it.
Speaker 4: They call that some kind of Detroit clean fee, but
Speaker 4: it was like it was not tax or anything like that.
Speaker 4: It was like a fee that they have for that.
Speaker 4: Did you also know this? Just notice in Chicago they
Speaker 4: give they charge you for bags.
Speaker 2: Did you say 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 and going why
Speaker 1: would I not wanted a bag? I bought like four
Speaker 1: bottles of water? How am I going to carry four
Speaker 1: bottles of water like in my arm?
Speaker 3: Like they charge the charge?
Speaker 2: 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.
Speaker 2: Of 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 of So
Speaker 4: do you if you see that right away, do you
Speaker 4: then automatically just go you're you know, and you pointed
Speaker 4: out to them, or do you say that's their business,
Speaker 4: that's their business. I'm just gonna control what I can control,
Speaker 4: which is how much 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.
Speaker 2: It was actually bad.
Speaker 1: The restaurant server story is on Reddit right now, sparking
Speaker 1: a big debate about the whole idea of putting the
Speaker 1: actual tip on there. But the woman shared to Reddit
Speaker 1: that she served a family at a large table and
Speaker 1: the father crossed out the four hundred and fifty dollars
Speaker 1: built in tip.
Speaker 2: Wow, how much of it?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, No, it was a four hundred and fifty
Speaker 1: dollars bills built in tip.
Speaker 2: So what would that twenty percent pag A four hundred
Speaker 2: and fifty dollars bucks? Is that ninety dollars? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Claiming brain on bread, claiming poor service, even though the
Speaker 1: only mistake was from the kitchen. He later told the
Speaker 1: manager her piercings were trashy and that she shouldn't work
Speaker 1: in such a nice place. The case has highlighted the
Speaker 1: experience that people have where they feel like bold enough
Speaker 1: to be able to talk about somebody's apparents, but also
Speaker 1: brought up a lot of people talking about the idea
Speaker 1: of twenty percent on there and people putting twenty percent
Speaker 1: or restaurants putting twenty percent.
Speaker 3: He was just I do find myself because twenty percent
Speaker 3: is just standard to me. Even if I have the
Speaker 3: crappiest service, I still feel obligated to put twenty percent down.
Speaker 2: Do you guys feel that same way, like you had
Speaker 2: 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.
Speaker 2: Which I hate that I do that way.
Speaker 4: Oh you just said bad service. If it's a great experience, yeah,
Speaker 4: my floor is twenty percent. We may go higher if
Speaker 4: it's bad start. I'm not about to feel guilted into
Speaker 4: doing it if.
Speaker 2: It was really bad service. Would you not tip at all? No,
Speaker 2: I'll always tip if.
Speaker 5: They're having a bad day at work, just like we
Speaker 5: have bad days on the radio, and you're still getting.
Speaker 2: Paid the same.
Speaker 4: Well, I'm not getting paid extra. The tip is extra.
Speaker 2: No, 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: ann saying that the tip is that 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.
Speaker 2: That's my salary. If they go to work and they
Speaker 2: do their job, they get paid. I'm not getting aything.
Speaker 2: But what if you have a bad day, That's what
Speaker 2: I'm saying. I'm not getting anything extra all right. By
Speaker 2: the way, Kevin never has a bad day day, He's good.
Speaker 2: What's up, Lisahi?
Speaker 3: Hey, so I'm in Toledo and we have our burger
Speaker 3: review guy and he was at Jay Alexander's doing review
Speaker 3: and they charge for the carry out.
Speaker 2: Oh how much I was? It was just under two
Speaker 2: dollars from what can I tell you? Just say a lot?
Speaker 2: Can I tell you something?
Speaker 5: Though?
Speaker 1: The containers at Jay Alexander's are really like nice containers.
Speaker 2: I know it's weird to say this, they.
Speaker 5: Really they really are.
Speaker 4: But I'd rather just have a basic container.
Speaker 2: Not be charged for it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't use dirofoam stuff. They use like these plastic,
Speaker 1: nice little containers and stuff.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I always get myself when I'm eating there and alex salad.
Speaker 1: 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. That should just be
Speaker 4: what they do. Crystal, what's up. It's moch on the morning.
Speaker 2: High, good morning.
Speaker 3: Sometimes when they have the built in tip, they give
Speaker 3: you crappee service because they know automatically they're going to
Speaker 3: 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 this. You know that they know they're already gonna
Speaker 1: get their tip I don't.
Speaker 5: Want, and you're waiting for and then you're waiting for
Speaker 5: water or next to the coke or bread.
Speaker 2: 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 on the morning.
Speaker 2: Hi.
Speaker 5: I just wanted to say, I totally agree with you, Kevin,
Speaker 5: because honestly, like you got that waitress job knowing that
Speaker 5: that's the amount your bake, you are making extra money
Speaker 5: based off your tips. So if you're gonna be rude,
Speaker 5: or you're not gonna make sure I have my silverware
Speaker 5: or extra napkins or make sure my drink filled, Like, No,
Speaker 5: I'm not obligated to feel bad about not giving you
Speaker 5: extra money because I came here to be served and
Speaker 5: 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 5: Because I worked as a waitress myself, and that it's
Speaker 5: one of the deal. You come in making a certain
Speaker 5: amount of money, you aren't essentially supposed to make up
Speaker 5: for that. And at the end of the year when
Speaker 5: you do your taxes, what happens. Does the government makes
Speaker 5: up for any money that you would have potentially made
Speaker 5: the makeup for the minimum wag?
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Morgan disagrees with you? Morgan, what'd you
Speaker 1: want to say?
Speaker 2: Hey, I actually the same thing you said a minute
Speaker 2: ago to de kech with. They don't make a lot
Speaker 2: of money at all. You may have a day where
Speaker 2: you make almost nothing. Yeah, that's not I'm.
Speaker 4: Not arguing that. That's I understand that. What I'm saying
Speaker 4: is if you give bad service, just because you make
Speaker 4: a lot of money on the tips that I provide
Speaker 4: doesn't mean it I actually feel obligated to tip you higher.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm say. Agree with Thattity, Yeah yeah, one
Speaker 2: perc
