Speaker 1 (00:02):
Because you're waking up in the morning. Tell me you
didn't love that song. That was a good one.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
We're in the midst of talking about tipping this morning.
What's the weirdest place you've been asked to tip at this?
Tipping make you feel very guilty, especially in the moment
you panic when that little white iPad spins around.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Good, I'm not alone, then.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
Okay, listen, I'm a waitress and everybody needs to learn
how to tip well and tip correctly. So they need
to teach that like early on, because this is the
way we make a living and people need to be
kind and just like just the basics of tipping, you know.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Okay, good, Yeah, I was deep in thought while you
were talking.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Thank you for the talk back with TIF and for
getting in.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
On the conversation.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Early microphone is in the top right hand corner of
the iHeart app, and tipping is the keyword you're going
to need to win the Museum Center passes coming up
around eight thirty ish this morning. Okay, I'm glad you
said something, but I also feel like there's this heavy
sense of guilt around tipping. In fact, I saw this thing.
(01:11):
This is kind of why we're talking about it. Fifty
three percent of consumer so more than half still believe
tipping should be optional and based on the service received.
Yet the majority of those people feel guilted into tipping, Like,
what's the solution here?
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Where are we at? What are your thoughts?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Like when that little white iPad turns around? Not only
am I doing math in my head? It was perfect.
Example was yesterday I got my nails done yesterday, I
had to wait and see what the total was, and
then I'm like, okay, I need a minute. So because
like one, I can't do math, So I'm on my
phone googling, like what's twenty percent of the total? Okay,
(01:52):
I can't do quick math like that quick moth And
then you know, I'm trying to figure it out. It's
just every single time, and it's not like it's new,
Like tipping is a thing that we've.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Always done for a really long time.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
And it's usually based off of someone's service, right, But
there's this air of well, regardless of what's going on,
you give twenty percent no matter what. What are your
thoughts on I'd love to hear from a local restaurant
owner or a server right now. Five one, three, seven,
four nine, one oh seven one. I'd also love to
know where's the weirdest place that you've been asked to pay?
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Good Morning?
Speaker 2 (02:28):
You're waking up with tip in the morning on Kiss
one oh seven one fifty one percent of consumers feel
guilted into tipping and still believe it should be.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Based off of service.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
So if you are one of those that panics when
the white iPad turns your way, you're not alone. We're
trying to get to the bottom of it and figure
it out, okay, on the situation, in the correct situation
in which to tip right. No one wants to be
the loser girl. I don't want to be the loser
girl from the radio that doesn't tip. I'm just making
sure we're doing the right thing here. Where's the weird
By the way, tipping is the keyword you're gonna need
(02:58):
for the museum center passes in a fume. Where's the
weirdest place that you've been asked to tip?
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Good morning, you're on the air. Good morning.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
I had a weird encounter in California where I was
at the tip at a grocery store.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
That does making any sense? Was it a totally was
it there? They using the toast machine.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
No, it was it wasn't it. No, it was just like, okay,
here she's fun around. You know how they say spin
you actual question and I'm like, wait, what.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
That iPad spin is like more than an Olympic figure skater.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
You know.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
When that thing spins around, You're like, oh God, here
we go. The panic sens in like Donya Harding.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Wait a minute, you were true, he said, So they
had set it up. There's always the prompt of there's
a question for you. So why it was?
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Probably well I saw it happened to other people too,
and under like peer pressure. I did tip twenty percent
on your board in a grocery store.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
On your Air one smoothie, you tipped twenty percent forty.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
Yeah, I was a little bit.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
You know, I didn't know what the culture was.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
I was like, I'm just a Midwest lady.
Speaker 5 (04:06):
I don't know what I'm doing.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
The niceness of the Midwest.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
You know, I've got that Bostonian streak in me, so
that niceness doesn't exist. What's your what's your name? With
neighborhoody waking up with me.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
And it's uh, hear about energy and I'm in Westchester Nick,
if you're.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Waking up with Tiff in the morning on kiss one
O seven one.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
All right, let's get you those stamps.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Or stamp in your Sincy summer passport collar.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Ten.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
If you've got the keyword I mentioned earlier in the
show and you want to go to the museum center
you see the new Barbie exhibit, go ahead and start
dialing five win three seven seven one. It's my goal
to get you out the house on my tab all
summer long. Hit your s Sincy staples just in case
you're not traveling but you still want to thrive this summer.
You come back here every day at eight thirty. We're
(04:54):
in the midst of chatting about tipping, et cetera. Another conversation.
I bet we'll revisit as I get close sort of
my Ireland trip. Do we tip in Ireland? That's gonna
be a new one for me. We're gonna have to
we're gonna have to visit, and we're checking some of
your talkbacks on it. By the way, you haven't left
me one yet. You can get in on.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
Everybody asking for tips is now hurting servers who actually
deserve to be tipped for the work that.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
They do going out to eat, you should be tipping.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
Yes, everything else I believe is optional, but tipping while
eating definitely not option.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
You know what you're going there to do.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Thank you, I'm assuming you're a server, and thank you
for the talkback with Tiff. The microphones in the top
right hand corner of the iHeart app when you listen
to kiss there, it's an alternative way to contribute. That's
how I've always believed it. If we're like trying to
figure out what the right thing to do is is
if I'm eating somewhere, or maybe I'm even drinking somewhere,
that's where I tip. Everywhere else is like based off
(05:59):
of the vibe. Even when I do sit down for
a meal, I consider the service as well.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Like, yes, it's usually always the twenty percent.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Sometimes it's more if I'm really connected with the server
and it was a really great service. Sometimes it might
be a little bit less, depending on what's going on.
I always try to give someone the benefit of the doubt, obviously,
but I saw this article. If you're just walking into
the conversation that fifty one percent of consumers still really
don't know how to navigate the tipping world. They feel
guilty most of the time. That grocery store comment was wild,
(06:33):
all right, hopefully of a hintest to what the keyword was.
By the way, if you're just walking into the conversation,
I have one more open phone line five when three
seven four nine, one oh seven one. Good luck if
you want the museum tickets in the meantime commercial because
you're waking up with Tiff in the morning on kiss
one oh seven to one, Well, hello and good morning.
I'm hoping you have a keyword for me kipping. Congratulations,
(06:54):
you got the keyword your collar ten. You are stamping
your Sincy summer passport at my gal.
Speaker 5 (06:59):
Oh my god, it's amazing as that excited.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yeah, I'm happy for your going to the museum Center.
You can check out the new Bobby exhibit.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Perfect.
Speaker 5 (07:07):
I can't wait.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
What's your name? What neighborhready waken up with me in
this morning?
Speaker 5 (07:11):
My name is Andrea, and I am in naked.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Andrea, thank you for waking up with Tip in the morning.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Thank you. Do you have any thoughts or comments on
the tipping conversation that we were just in You might
be one of the fifty percent of people that feels
guilted into tipping and doesn't know what to do in
panics like myself.
Speaker 5 (07:29):
Yes, actually, last Wednesday, I was at the FC Cincinnati
game at TQL Stadium, and I went to the Dippin'
Dots line, and when it was time to tip, the
screen was automatically on either ten percent, twenty percent, or
you could click others that I kind of just panicked
(07:52):
and I didn't really want to tip for dippin' dots
and skipping the ice cream into the cup, So I
just hit the ten percent button and I went along
my way.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
That's exactly what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
And you know what, you may you make such a
great point from one of our talkbackers a few minutes
ago that said, tipping is like for the service industry,
not exclusively, but when you sit down for a meal
somewhere or a drink like that's where the money should
be going. Not necessarily a teenager at FCC that's scooping
(08:25):
dippin' dots into a cup and handing and there's no
service there. That's just your job. We could go on
for days about this, and you know what, feel free
to feel free to jump in.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
I might be wrong.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
This is why we do my show the way we
do it. You know you can contribute if you took
an l on the tickets. Just know that when you
listen to Kiss on the iHeartRadio app every morning, you
can start doing that from your house. I have a
chance for you to stamp your Sincy summer passport.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
We do that ever a day, eight thirty. Who is
dming me at this hour from the office. In the
meantime we're commercial free. Hey, give me a couple.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
We're not far off from the three things you need
to know to get your day started in Sincy. Around
eight fifty two major concerts were announced that are coming here.

didn't love that song. That was a good one.
