Speaker 1 (00:00):
We were just talking a little bit on and off
the air about how the company's taking us to lunch
today because they feel bad because they went on a
rant a couple of days ago about how they don't
pay any attention to us, don't care about us, don't
love us. I mean, you know, I was talking to
Giddy in the Assassin, Giddy in the Torture, my trainer
about this yesterday.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
I think it's because.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
We only hear anything when we're not doing Like when
things are not good, that's the only time we hear anything.
So maybe it's it's just because like they just expect
us to do a good job and like this is
what that's just a standard now. Yes, So like they
don't say anything when we do a good job because
it's like, well, that's just what you.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Have to do.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
The funny thing is anyone else around here like shows
up for work and there's like.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
A parade, And that's very true, Like certain morning.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Shows here they take a poop and like we celebrate,
We have a cake and there's like a dis's candles
and there's a there's a burrito burrito station and you
know whatever.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Yeah, but then I don't anyway, So there's a lunch happening.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Yeah, and it's at a bougie restaurant, and we you know
that Rufo is going to order the most expensive stuff
because he does. But the question was about etiquette. It
was about what do you do in that situation. Now, granted,
we all have a grudge here, so we're gonna order
whatever the hell we want. But like normally, when the
business takes you out for lunch to celebrate something, even
though you know the business has a lot of money,
(01:19):
do you order? Do you think about how much you're
going to spend on your food or do you just
order whatever you want because it's like, well they're taking
us here because they got to know what we're gonna
spend money. How do you look at it, Kiki? Do
you look at the venue and say, well, that's too expensive?
Speaker 3 (01:32):
I used to overthink and be very courteous on what
I would order until I started going out with them
and they order whatever they want, and so yeah, I
followed their vibes.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
If they if they order big, I'm like, all right,
let's do it.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
If if they're ordering on a budget, then I'll play
it nice.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
I used to work in radio incapacity, where people were
taking me to dinner all the time, and what happens.
It doesn't really happen as much anymore, no, But what
I realized was.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
I cut the budget or something. Yes, well, yeah, they
don't do it like that anymore.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
But what I realized was like these reps would come
to town, take me to dinner, and they'd spend a
ton of money, and then like one time, I get
a call from the rep's boss going, dude, eight hundred
dollars bottle of wine, bro And I'm like, what are
you talking about? Like you I have the expense report,
your name is on it, and an eight hundred dollars
bottle of Wine'm.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Like, I didn't order that. The rep order that.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
So what was happening was like the reps were spending
them all this money and then putting you know, whoever
they took out down, or saying there were four people
there when there were only two or whatever. And it's like,
if you're gonna lie to your boss, can I get
a heads up first, because I'd be like, yeah, I
ordered that, That's what I'd drink. And I was twenty
four years old. I made twenty three thousand dollars a year.
(02:48):
That is not what I drink, nor did I know
I was drinking it. But I think that's the secret
all the time with the expense reports now is it's like,
well who else did who did it? And you brought
your whole family with you to dinner. I'm like it
was just me and any other person? Like where the
rest of the money go? I don't know, So now
I wonder, because you're right, You're right. We go to
these things and the bosses order everything when they put
our names. Oh well we took oh man, we took
(03:09):
kiky up. Boy did she? She just racked it up
like she always does. And in the meantime, you and
I look at the menu, going, okay, salad's twenty three dollars.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Yeah, oh no, I want shrimp on that. That's seven
dollars more. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
I'm not sure because that's how my mom taught me.
You know, you like when someone else is buying you,
never you don't rack it up right correct the However,
there's also a famous I think we went to like, uh,
when I first met my brother in law, we went
to some fancy sushi restaurant and apparently he was under
the impression he was paying, and he was under the
impression that I knew he was paying. It was my
(03:47):
sister and my brother in law and my mom and
I and he had said to my sister, I'm buying dinner.
Tell everybody, you know, like that there will be no
because my family does. My dad doesn't play like when
my dad takes everyone to dinner. My dad pays because
my dad is a dad, and that he thinks that's
his deal. Now now now that we're a little older,
he has backed off that a little bit. So it's
(04:08):
so great if we pay, But like he doesn't want
to be up he doesn't he wants to take care
of his family. That's what he wants to do. So like,
don't try and upstage him, like, just let him pay.
So We're at this restaurant and I'm thinking in my head,
I'm paying, so I'm just ordering everything because it's my money,
you know. So I'm like, yeah, we'll take three of those,
and then like the socket, we'll yeah, we'll take yeah,
(04:29):
just bring a couple of those. And then like, because
I'm paying, so I'm treating everybody, and the look on
his face and I did not know at the time.
I'm like he looks sick and like at the time,
I didn't know why, you know, and it's like and
because nobody told me this, so like I'm yeah, and
then she's like, well the Kobey like yeah, sure you know,
and treat yourself, you know what I mean. And he
(04:49):
thinks that I know he's paying, and I'm just racking
up the.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Bill with the money around real quick.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
This poor guy, he's he's trying to get like a
payday loan, like I don't know what. He's at the
table and then the bill comes and I took it
and like the relief on his face was just like
He's like, honestly, I thought I thought you knew I
was paying and you were just trying to like test
me and ordering all this stuff. I'm like, no, I
would never have done that if the bill wasn't coming
to me. Yeah, But I felt bad for him because
(05:18):
the whole time he just was tortured because he's like
this is going to be so expensive, but I don't
have enough money.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
The worse feeling.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
But my sister was like, well I told you, he
was like you didn't She oh, never mind, I didn't,
You're right, which I didn't know, but if I had
known he was paying, I would have ordered like soup,
you know, because I don't I don't want to do that's.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
What he ordered. Because he ordered. I think he did.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
No, I honestly, I honestly think he curtailed his order
because he was like, dude, I disguis his curity right now?
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Yeah. Yeah, he didn't even enjoy his dinner or nothing. No,
he was he was miserable watching his bank account.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Do you ever like, uh, is there a place that
treats you, like a restaurant where you go all the time,
like that tends to treat you better and you know
they're going to treat you better, so like you don't
order as much stuff because you're like I don't. Yeah,
Like there's like Armando at Last Corolla, the best Italian
food in Chicago by by a mile. Oftentimes, like he'll
hook me up and not because I mentioned him, just
(06:17):
because we're friends or whatever, but like I order what
I want to order, and I get the wine I
want to get based on what I want to eat, right,
But the problem is every now and again there's no bill,
and I'm like, so he thinks he probably thinks, I know,
like that I think there's not going to be a bill,
so I ordered like expensive, I don't and then I
beg him to let me pay and he won't let
me pay.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
So, like, who's the a hole?
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Should I go in there every time and order the
cheapest stuff because I don't want to offend him or
make him have to pay a lot of money for
me because I'm just a nobody and he's just a
friend and nice guy. He thinks I'm just a starting
radio guy. Or do I go in there and order
whatever the hell I want if there's no bill, there's
no bill option.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Too, Yeah, for sure. I just take care of a staff.
You know, tip is the bartender, the waitress. Are you
supposed to tip?
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Well?
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Talk about yeah, oh don't trust me the staff. The
staff loves it when I go in there standing one
you're ordering or are you sitting down? Oh yeah, he
comes out with an iPad and you didn't even do
anything yet.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
No. I think about that sometimes though, Like I don't know,
but maybe you have family that owns an establishment and
they don't give you a bill sometimes or like I
don't know, maybe I don't know, like if you if
you if it's a family restaurant and like your uncle
owns it. Do you go in there and order whatever
you want, knowing your uncle's not going to charge you,
or do you or do you not get what you
want at this place that you love because you know
(07:37):
there's not going to be a bill and you have
to be considerate.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
I've done that. I actually did this yesterday.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
I avoid it going to a place because I was like,
she's gonna want to give me something free, and I
feel like a freeloader if I keep coming in here
and she's giving me stuff for free, although I love
the food and I want to pay for the food,
but she won't let me pay for them.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
No.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
See, it's exactly the same.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
It's uncomfortable a little bit because it's like, I don't
even though I want this food right now, I don't
want to put you in a position to give me
something free because you're going.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
To feel like you, you know, uncomfortable every day.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
We know, and you're the reason why we're thinking about it.
You're the reason why I worry about things like this. Anyway,
shout out to Armando esca role. If you're in Chicago,
you need to go to the best Italian food Chcogo
and I'm not saying that because occasionally there's no bill. However,
it helps, yeah, man, it helps, you know, But I'm like, dude,
(08:27):
I didn't I didn't get, you know, seven appetizers because
I thought it was free. I got seven appetisers because
that's what that's what I wanted to get.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
I thought there was a bill it's coming. What does
this text say?
Speaker 1 (08:37):
My brother in law invited me to Fhogo Day shown, yes,
also known as Fogo de Show. Don't get me started
on that. Everyone calls it Fogo da show. Apparently he's
supposed to say Fogo Day shown. But if I say
Fogo da showing, I think people think I'm the idiot,
even though that's the way it's supposed to be pronounced.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
There was all.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
We did a whole ad campaign about this. I was
corrected a million times, but how to say it properly?
And I'm like, guys, at what point do you just
call it Phogo de show because that's what everybod else
calls it.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
I don't into it.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
And my brother invited me to Fogo without realizing how
expensive it was. The bill came to one thousand dollars
and he was so scared that I just took the bill.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
See, I'm sure that happens. I'm sure that happens. We're like,
you're trying to take the in laws out. You just
start dating somebody and you're like, as a dude, you're like, oh,
I'm going to meet the family, taking the family out
to dinner, and then like the bill starts getting more
and more and more. I can remember this when I
was young, Like you want to impress the dad, and
it's like the bill comes You're like, oh my god,
I really stepped in it, right, yeah, right, Like I'm
(09:33):
just kidding. And then once you've got it, once you've
taken possession and you flexed, that's on you. Now.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Now you got to figure it out. You got to
figure out how're going to pay for it later.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Because you can't be like, oh, because the worst thing
you could do, the better situation there would be let
the other guy pay. The worst thing you can do
is take it and then go just kidding hand it back.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
I remember one time when I was in college, my
parents told the story. The time I was a freshman
in college, we went somewhere on a vacation and my
sister and we all went to dinner and we're all
sitting there eating and whatever in the bill and I'm
eighteen years old. I haven't I'm not even working at
this point. I'm just in college. I having zero dollars
to my name. I have nothing. And the bill comes
and I take the bill and my parents were like
it was a nice place. My parents like really, like
(10:18):
I got this, and they didn't forgot. I had a
copy of their credit card paid with Oh wow, this
is so nice. How you doing and then they see
their card come out right, Well.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Bella will buy like she gets a little bit from
my parents for college obviously, but she went through a
phase where she was buying other friends food and my
mom had to have a talk with her, like, girlfriend.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Yeah we're not doing this, doing that too? Yeah, oh
you get a bunch of credit cards.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
I got my first credit cards in college. I was
buying concert stickets with people. I'm like outside, yeah, I
have to pay this right now, or.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
A store or a store like the department store, a
credit card or whatever like wall Mark.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Yeah I rang that up. Yeah Victoria's.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
I was like Express, I'm sorry, bankruptcy, but it's my fault.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Is taking a bunch of thongs. Facts. It's like, never mind,
I know they can't afford these after all.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Yeah, that's probably the most valuable advice or or like
guidance I ever got financially, was to stay away from
the credit card.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Don't do what kids. Yeah, honestly, I'm.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Telling you, my folks, being like, if you don't have,
if you don't have, if it's a thing you want
and you don't have cash money to buy it, you.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Can't have it. I'm not talking about a car.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
I'm not talking about college I am I talking about
medical expenses or or a house.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
I'm not talking about right, But I.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
Read like a credit card is good if you're financially
responsible for it, like because it does help your credit
having a credit card or have or maybe have your
parents put you on their account as an authorized user
so you build that credit. Because there's a lot of
people out there that want to buy something but have
never opened a credit card before and their credit score
is not good.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
But most people I know got caught up in the
credit card high interest rate game, most people, and for
whatever reason, it was just that was if there's any
piece of financial advice anyone ever gave me.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
It was not to get not to do it.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Yeah, and I realized there are people that have to
because you know of necessity, and I know there are
actenuating circumstances. But even then, I'd hope there was another
option because they will. They are relentless with the interest rates.
Oh yeah, like those things.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
So first time you go and pay for something and
they're like, would you like to apply for a store
credit card?
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Yes? And you get approved. Man, I went to every
store that you go to, every store like they're what
what did you think was gonna happen? I mean money? Yeah,
you paying?
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Now?
Speaker 2 (12:35):
That never crossed my mind at any point.
Speaker 4 (12:38):
Man, when free, nothing is free in life.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Oh yeah. It took like twenty minutes at the register.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
You're giving them all your information and they're like you
approved them.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Like he's still paying for those movie posters from uh
from Spencer's yeah from twenty years ago video
Speaker 2 (12:55):
I'm sorry, right,
We were just talking a little bit on and off
the air about how the company's taking us to lunch
today because they feel bad because they went on a
rant a couple of days ago about how they don't
pay any attention to us, don't care about us, don't
love us. I mean, you know, I was talking to
Giddy in the Assassin, Giddy in the Torture, my trainer
about this yesterday.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
I think it's because.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
We only hear anything when we're not doing Like when
things are not good, that's the only time we hear anything.
So maybe it's it's just because like they just expect
us to do a good job and like this is
what that's just a standard now. Yes, So like they
don't say anything when we do a good job because
it's like, well, that's just what you.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Have to do.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
The funny thing is anyone else around here like shows
up for work and there's like.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
A parade, And that's very true, Like certain morning.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Shows here they take a poop and like we celebrate,
We have a cake and there's like a dis's candles
and there's a there's a burrito burrito station and you

and I'm like, so he thinks he probably thinks, I know,
like that I think there's not going to be a bill,
so I ordered like expensive, I don't and then I
beg him to let me pay and he won't let
me pay.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
So, like, who's the a hole?
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Should I go in there every time and order the
cheapest stuff because I don't want to offend him or
make him have to pay a lot of money for
me because I'm just a nobody and he's just a
friend and nice guy. He thinks I'm just a starting
radio guy. Or do I go in there and order
whatever the hell I want if there's no bill, there's
no bill option.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Too, Yeah, for sure. I just take care of a staff.
You know, tip is the bartender, the waitress. Are you
supposed to tip?
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Well?
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Talk about yeah, oh don't trust me the staff. The
staff loves it when I go in there standing one
you're ordering or are you sitting down? Oh yeah, he
comes out with an iPad and you didn't even do
anything yet.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
No. I think about that sometimes though, Like I don't know,
but maybe you have family that owns an establishment and
they don't give you a bill sometimes or like I
don't know, maybe I don't know, like if you if
you if it's a family restaurant and like your uncle
owns it. Do you go in there and order whatever
you want, knowing your uncle's not going to charge you,
or do you or do you not get what you
want at this place that you love because you know
(07:37):
there's not going to be a bill and you have
to be considerate.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
I've done that. I actually did this yesterday.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
I avoid it going to a place because I was like,
she's gonna want to give me something free, and I
feel like a freeloader if I keep coming in here
and she's giving me stuff for free, although I love
the food and I want to pay for the food,
but she won't let me pay for them.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
No.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
See, it's exactly the same.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
It's uncomfortable a little bit because it's like, I don't
even though I want this food right now, I don't
want to put you in a position to give me
something free because you're going.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
To feel like you, you know, uncomfortable every day.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
We know, and you're the reason why we're thinking about it.
You're the reason why I worry about things like this. Anyway,
shout out to Armando esca role. If you're in Chicago,
you need to go to the best Italian food Chcogo
and I'm not saying that because occasionally there's no bill. However,
it helps, yeah, man, it helps, you know, But I'm like, dude,
(08:27):
I didn't I didn't get, you know, seven appetizers because
I thought it was free. I got seven appetisers because
that's what that's what I wanted to get.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
I thought there was a bill it's coming. What does
this text say?
Speaker 1 (08:37):
My brother in law invited me to Fhogo Day shown, yes,
also known as Fogo de Show. Don't get me started
on that. Everyone calls it Fogo da show. Apparently he's
supposed to say Fogo Day shown. But if I say
Fogo da showing, I think people think I'm the idiot,
even though that's the way it's supposed to be pronounced.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
There was all.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
We did a whole ad campaign about this. I was
corrected a million times, but how to say it properly?
And I'm like, guys, at what point do you just
call it Phogo de show because that's what everybod else
calls it.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
I don't into it.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
And my brother invited me to Fogo without realizing how
expensive it was. The bill came to one thousand dollars
and he was so scared that I just took the bill.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
See, I'm sure that happens. I'm sure that happens. We're like,
you're trying to take the in laws out. You just
start dating somebody and you're like, as a dude, you're like, oh,
I'm going to meet the family, taking the family out
to dinner, and then like the bill starts getting more
and more and more. I can remember this when I
was young, Like you want to impress the dad, and
it's like the bill comes You're like, oh my god,
I really stepped in it, right, yeah, right, Like I'm
(09:33):
just kidding. And then once you've got it, once you've
taken possession and you flexed, that's on you. Now.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Now you got to figure it out. You got to
figure out how're going to pay for it later.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Because you can't be like, oh, because the worst thing
you could do, the better situation there would be let
the other guy pay. The worst thing you can do
is take it and then go just kidding hand it back.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
I remember one time when I was in college, my
parents told the story. The time I was a freshman
in college, we went somewhere on a vacation and my
sister and we all went to dinner and we're all
sitting there eating and whatever in the bill and I'm
eighteen years old. I haven't I'm not even working at
this point. I'm just in college. I having zero dollars
to my name. I have nothing. And the bill comes
and I take the bill and my parents were like
it was a nice place. My parents like really, like
(10:18):
I got this, and they didn't forgot. I had a
copy of their credit card paid with Oh wow, this
is so nice. How you doing and then they see
their card come out right, Well.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Bella will buy like she gets a little bit from
my parents for college obviously, but she went through a
phase where she was buying other friends food and my
mom had to have a talk with her, like, girlfriend.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Yeah we're not doing this, doing that too? Yeah, oh
you get a bunch of credit cards.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
I got my first credit cards in college. I was
buying concert stickets with people. I'm like outside, yeah, I
have to pay this right now, or.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
A store or a store like the department store, a
credit card or whatever like wall Mark.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Yeah I rang that up. Yeah Victoria's.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
I was like Express, I'm sorry, bankruptcy, but it's my fault.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Is taking a bunch of thongs. Facts. It's like, never mind,
I know they can't afford these after all.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Yeah, that's probably the most valuable advice or or like
guidance I ever got financially, was to stay away from
the credit card.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Don't do what kids. Yeah, honestly, I'm.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Telling you, my folks, being like, if you don't have,
if you don't have, if it's a thing you want
and you don't have cash money to buy it, you.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Can't have it. I'm not talking about a car.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
I'm not talking about college I am I talking about
medical expenses or or a house.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
I'm not talking about right, But I.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
Read like a credit card is good if you're financially
responsible for it, like because it does help your credit
having a credit card or have or maybe have your
parents put you on their account as an authorized user
so you build that credit. Because there's a lot of
people out there that want to buy something but have
never opened a credit card before and their credit score
is not good.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
But most people I know got caught up in the
credit card high interest rate game, most people, and for
whatever reason, it was just that was if there's any
piece of financial advice anyone ever gave me.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
It was not to get not to do it.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Yeah, and I realized there are people that have to
because you know of necessity, and I know there are
actenuating circumstances. But even then, I'd hope there was another
option because they will. They are relentless with the interest rates.
Oh yeah, like those things.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
So first time you go and pay for something and
they're like, would you like to apply for a store
credit card?
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Yes? And you get approved. Man, I went to every
store that you go to, every store like they're what
what did you think was gonna happen? I mean money? Yeah,
you paying?
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Now?
Speaker 2 (12:35):
That never crossed my mind at any point.
Speaker 4 (12:38):
Man, when free, nothing is free in life.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Oh yeah. It took like twenty minutes at the register.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
You're giving them all your information and they're like you
approved them.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Like he's still paying for those movie posters from uh
from Spencer's yeah from twenty years ago video
Speaker 2 (12:55):
I'm sorry, right,
