Speaker 1 (00:01):
Has tipping culture gotten out of control?
Speaker 2 (00:05):
We're moving there. It's broken Jeffrey in the Morning.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
We've done a lot of stories about how the public's
getting frustrated because everywhere they go, everywhere they look, even
when they're doing self checkout, it's like, hey, you want
to leave a twenty five percent tip for the groceries
that you just scanned yourself?
Speaker 3 (00:22):
Oh yeah, also put in your cart yourself, Yes, bagged yourself.
Wait did I actually even talk to anyone?
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Well, now there's a story making headlines that tipping cultures
worked its way into the Newark Airport in New Jersey.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
It's okay.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Our passenger was checking in at the United ticketing counter.
Turns out their checked bag was half a pound too heavy.
Uh huh oh, just zero point five pounds over the
weight limit.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Okay, take that code out and put it on, take
one thing out.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Well, the agent just looked over at the person, smiled
and said, Nah, don't.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Worry, I didn't see nothing. Awesome. You never hear that
from airlines them a high five.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Even so, the customer thought, oh cool, I'm getting a
nice break. But then the agent pointed down to the
counter and said, you can just leave me a little
tip for that right here. No, the customer would wondered
the same thing, asked is he being for real? And
the agent said yes, I'm serious. No, So the passenger
(01:22):
threw down five bucks.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
What I would not I would pay for a I
think yeah, because i'd be If not, they'd be like, yeah,
then fifty dollars.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
On the way home, they said they did feel a
little weird about it, for I feel like they were.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Just like blackmailed.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Yes, that's how they sew a little scammed. So they
went and reported it to United on their No surprise,
United has not responded, but in general, the stories making
the rounds online and people are saying it's totally ridiculous.
If it ever happens again, they recommend asking for a super.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
I wouldn't do it because I feel like it's almost
like condescending to give someone money who's not in a
tipping situation. Job. It's like, you look like you need
this any.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Service, right.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
I think we all should pull out a few dollar
bills for digital Jake.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
As we said the shock collar question of the day,
shout it out. I do this for the love of
the game only.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
I want to speak to your supervisor. That's not cool.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
He refuses our money on JA on this day.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
Back in nineteen eighty one, a group of four robbers
broke into the vault of a First National Bank in
Tucson and made off with three point three million dollars.
Oh my god, that was so much and now at
the time, it made it the largest single heist in
US history. The culprits were never identified and never caught,
(02:50):
so obviously they must have been pretty smart. Yeah, but
today we're just going to focus on the dumb criminals.
I'm going to read you some news headlines about the
stupidest criminals in American history, and you have to tell
me if it was real or not. In a special
low brow law Breakers edition of twenty.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
After years of doing laser stories, I feel like every
one of these is gonna be.

just wears enough like long sleeves, it.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
Works, you know, to cover himself from getting stung. And like,
I think it's true.
Speaker 4 (04:00):

And if they don't have an owner, they're freebies. Brook
it's your turn, God, your headline. Florida man leaves apology
note return stolen goods after realizing they're not the latest iPhone?

Speaker 2 (05:31):
I don't want to see any naked ladies. It's my cat.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
Yeah, everyone in that would be so excited, would be
so happy.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
I think for sure a Florida guy was upset that
his cat couldn't get in.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
That's a real story. Jeff says, that's real. That is yeah,
real headline. All right, we're on around number two.

Speaker 3 (06:36):
No, there's a lot of glass eyeballs out there.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Or are they real or googly?
Speaker 3 (06:43):
Maybe he just wanted to see what's up there, take
a peek.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Let's just say it's real. Gone to Hose says that's real.
It is. I refuse to elaborate more. Run a Jeffrey,
details than that.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Jeffrey, here's your headline. Florida man's getaway foiled by GPS
accidentally navigates straight to the police station.
Speaker 2 (07:09):

Speaker 3 (07:10):
I feel like that we've reported on this in laser stories.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
Seriously, Well only because it's Florida. I'm saying it's real.
Jeff We said that's real.
Speaker 4 (07:18):

sudden death. Alexis Alexi. You get this right, you win,
you get it wrong, Jose wins. Here's your headline. Florida
man steals gumball machine, gets caught trying to sell gumballs
on Facebook a real headline, and we make that up
on a piece.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
I feel like going on Facebook too much effort for
a Florida man.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
I feel like he'd go outside like a kid's school
and try to sell them there, you know, like that.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
So I'm going to say it's not true.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Jay Alexi says that's made up. That is a real headline,
and that means, Jose, you've won today's edition up Plentium
twenty all right.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
I'm more concerned about the people who bought the gumballs.
Speaker 4 (08:04):
Yeah, if you're not getting your gumballs from Facebook marketplace,
you're missing give.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Me your house.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
Well, Jose, you get to choose who gets shocked. They're
gonna be singing no Scrubs by TLC. So who's it
gonna be.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
Well, it's because it's her favorite. I gotta choose broke.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
