Speaker 1 (00:00):
I want to get to this relay situation in a
little bit. But I found this list and it resonated
with me because the intern, benham Me not Benjamin, was
just talking about how being camp counselor it was like
one of the best jobs you ever had. I mean
he was I don't know if his honor off the air,
but he was just gushing about about it. And in retrospect,
I wish I liked camp. I wish I didn't have
(00:21):
deep attachment issues. I wish I had liked camp. And
then I wish I had gone back as a counselor
because my life would have been different forever, just completely did.
Because when you went to summer camp, you could assume
a completely different identity, you know, Like I went to
the same school from kindergarten through twelfth grade, so I
was who I was.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
There was no changing that, like.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Like whatever, whatever, and I wish with the same people.
It was this little private school and it was the
same people. So like, but then when you went to
summer camp or you went on vacation or whatever, like
you then assume again it made a new impression on people.
So I was kind of like middle of the road
in high school and in school. I mean I I
wasn't the most popular, wasn't the least popular. But then
you know, who knows. You go to summer camp and
(01:00):
all of a sudden, you're like hooking up with these
hot hikes or whatever. I mean, that was all I
think they were doing camp my camp counselors, because they
put us to bed at nine o'clock or whatever, and
then it was like a counselor house up on the
top of the hill, and god knows what.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Was going on in there.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
If only they had the internet back then, and people
were making videos that would have been an app that
would have been on porn Hub.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
For sure.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
I swear they were all up there drinking and doing
each other. I'm sure about it. Camp counselor is the
best gig. This was a list of the best summer
jobs for teenagers. Camp counselor number one babysitting, they said
his number two. I think the best babysitting gig is
more like the nanny and gig. Like if you babies
of a rich family and they go on vacations and stuff,
you get to.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Go with them.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Tutor tutoring, is it? I guess you can get paid
dog walking. This is for high schoolers landscaping. I guess
I've seen some kids on TikTok that have a little
landscape hustle going and they make more in an afternoon
than I make in a week.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Sony.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Yes, but it comes back to what you were talking
about the other day, Jason, about how you're service industry
Your life is a service industry worker.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
Yeah, has conditioned you. Yeah, it really has.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
Like it like it bothers and I feel the same
way about like clothing retail.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
But what is it for you?
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Like it's ingrained in you because that's what you did
before you got into radio.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
So my one of my first jobs was at a bar,
and I was a buser, I was a server, I
was a bartender, I was a manager.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
I worked there for like twelve years.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
And so as a server and a bartender, I guess
like I always have to have like.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Something to take notes with around me.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Like my biggest fear was like walking up to a
table and be like, oh, what can I get you?
And I don't have a patent, and like that was
always like, oh then you're like scrambling, you look like
an idiot and so and I also can't remember, Like
I don't get the servers that can like remember your
order right, like because I have the worst memory.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
So they never see people get more money, like more tips.
You get more tips if you memorize someone's order instead
of running it down.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
But I could. I'm not that guy. I can't memorize anything. Nope.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Yeah, I could not do that. I wrote every single thing.
They were like, oh, two pepsis are like two pepsis.
I like write it down to you because I was
so we're and also like I feel like you're always
carrying like hot plates, like I can touch really hot
things and like carry it around. I feel like my
like whatever heat your cap are gone in my hands. Yeah,
but that's sort of affected me forever.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
So it could be your job then, at your job now,
but I want to know eight five five five nine
one one oh three five is I can call the friendshie.
You can text the same number, like what for me?
For example, I worked in retail until radio. All through
college I worked in retail, and for me, it's like
I to this day won't touch stuff that's on display,
kind of like I worked at a tobacco store and
I had to I had to organize all of the cigars,
(03:36):
and the huge human were to make them all neat
and perfect and stocked and the whole thing. And I
would do that, and then you know, the store closed
at nine, at eight forty five, some guy would come
in and touch everything. The same with clothing was worse though,
because clothing, you know, you get the section perfect and
then somebody would come in and they'd start rifling through
the stack that you just fixed in order to get
the one on the bottom. And it's like so now
(03:58):
to this day, if I go to a clothing store
and someone's helping me, I'm just like, hey, I'm looking
for a thirty four, Like, can you just you know,
you get it for me? Because and they're always grateful too,
because they know what I know, which is that they I'm.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Going to screw it up.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
There's an easy way to get stuff out of the
stack that doesn't disturb the whole stack, and there's a
hard there's a hard way. Uh And and most people,
I think take the hard way. They just go plump, right,
And so why do you guys screw up the whole
stack when we can only screw up one thing? That's
my thing. But what is it for? I mean, like
you guys were in food service. A lot of people
in here did different stuff. Are you conditioned rufio? Is
there anything that like you worked at McDonald's for a
(04:37):
long time and you weren'd in KFC I did.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Is there anything that you're conditioned to?
Speaker 3 (04:41):
It really makes you a people person Like you you
talk to everybody, and everyone either either happy, like no
matter what it is to be the happiest person of
the world, could be the meanest person of the world,
and you just have to.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Have it bring you.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Sure, Yeah, like you're forced to talk to talk to people.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
For sure. We think it would make you hate people
to a certain extent because I mean, you see a
side of people I don't know when they order all
their food, they eat all their food, and then they
come back and say, this food stuck. I want a refund,
And you're like you're looking at him and you're going,
it's not my money, it's not my food. But you're
a lying ass liar, Like you're scamming me right now.
Like I remember, you know, my very dramatic story about
being scammed at Blockbuster, And to this day it drives
(05:18):
me crazy and it wasn't my money, and it wasn't
my credit, and it wasn't my stuff, but I had
as a sixteen year old, I'm looking at this grown
ass woman going, you are lying to a child right
now over fifty dollars. And the thing was at the time,
I remember my district manager was like, just give her
money back.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
It's not worth it. It's and I'm like, what do
you mean it's not worth it?
Speaker 1 (05:39):
Like I know this is wrong, and I'm the kid,
and she knows it's wrong too, and somehow, so I
don't know, I could see it going the other way
where you begin to kind of despise people.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Yeah, I think it also means you a good customer too.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Like Mike and I get into this all the time,
like I won't if a restaurant is closing within an hour,
I do not go because I understand. And with the
last hour of your shift, you're going everything for closing.
You're putting everything away, you're combining stuff like whatever. If
they're like no, Michael, be like oh well no, they're
open another I'm like, no, you don't understand.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
You've never worked in a restaurant.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
The last hour is like we're cleaning so that when
night o'clock hits, we're out the door.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
What is it for you?
Speaker 4 (06:15):
It made me a people pleaser, So, like I worked
at KFC, I was a manager, and I just I
did not like people leaving the store dissatisfied. So it
carried over to my real life where like I want
to make everybody happy as much as possible, and like
make you it just everything a joyous experience. So that's
one thing. It's it like really made me a people pleaser,
(06:35):
Like I have to make I have to fix this,
like I can.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
I can fix I can give you more cheap drink.
It's just I guess I've begun to see it.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Maybe it's just a pessimist, but I began to see
it the other way where it's like I don't want
to help you because you're you're scamming me. You you
think I'm stupid, you know what I mean. I took
it personally and it wasn't my stuff, you know. But
I'm looking at you going you think I believe this,
Like I know what you're doing and you know what
you're doing, and I don't know. I began to like
really lose faith in humanity as a result, of it,
(07:06):
and that was a long time ago. Somebody texted eight
five five five one three five, I won't touch free
standing free sample. Seeing gross hands that touch things. Uh,
snow plowing makes you hate everybody, especially old people. I've
been chased down the street with a broom for putting
my snow in her driveway.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Old people be cranky.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
A hardware store learned how to fake knowledge in other
people's projects. It needs working in the hardware to part.
You were the top tire salesman and in the region I.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Worked at tires. I worked at hardware like I had
no business doing any of them. You're a liable.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
That's it comes down to being likable, really does Hey Eddie,
good morning, Good morning Eddie. You're you're one of these people.
You're like Kiki. So you were a bartender and it
made you social. You went anti social to social.
Speaker 5 (07:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I was very quiet.
Speaker 5 (08:02):
I was very anti social. I didn't really know how
to talk to people. For the most part, people would
walk over me. I was very I was very mouldible
to what other people wanted to do. And then I
bartended and within a couple of years I kind of
came out of my shell. I knew how to talk
to people. I was better with the ladies at that
point too, because I knew how to socialize. Everything opened
(08:26):
up for me. And then I don't bartend anymore. But
now when I go to a bar, I pick up
on things that I never would have picked up on before.
I could start conversations and have like long conversations with
random strangers about the simplest things, and it just comes
out of nowhere, and everybody thinks we're best friends. And
I'm like, nah, I'm just good at doing.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
The south, all right.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
So Eddie went the other way. You became a better
human for dealing with people. I think sometimes you see
people like flight attendants, for example, I feel like people
are at their very worst when they're traveling, and I
think I would get so tired of society as a
flight attendant, because I'm like, you know, I don't know
the stuff.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
That you see people do.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
I believe that you're probably a decent person, but know
that bag is not going to fit in the overhead bit.
I don't care if you say it fit on the
way down. It doesn't fit. It's not the same airplane,
and you don't own it. I don't know look at me.
I'm getting frustrated now, thank you, Eddie, have a good day.
Let me see, working in retail makes talking to those
(09:21):
combative people or angry people easier, definitely brings you out
of your shell.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Works at Jewel.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Somebody else talking about working at a grocery store in
the South called Harris Teeter. It's the same deal as
a former Target employee. I see a shelf for an
I'll all messed up, and sometimes I'll fix it because.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
I know how annoying that can be. Yes, that's what
I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Like if you were the guy that for years had
to fix all that and then you see how messed
up it is, it's like, oh, it never leaves you.
I worked at restaurants for years and other text and
one time I went out with my friend and we
were the last table and the whole place and that
I was like, Okay, let's go so they can go home.
My friend refused to leave because they were open for
twenty more minutes.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
I was so mad.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I'm a service writer for a dealership and I've lost
faith in people's common sense.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
I believe that. I believe that Hey, Amanda, good morning.
Speaker 6 (10:08):
Good morning.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Hi, so you are a current retail manager.
Speaker 6 (10:13):
Yes, I am over the style department.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Okay, and so how has it changed you? So every
time I go into the sitting room, I make sure
I hang up my clothes.
Speaker 6 (10:23):
I put it on the.
Speaker 5 (10:24):
Brag, make sure it's you know, correctly on the hangar.
Speaker 6 (10:27):
Never leave anything in the floor.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean again, And why you wouldn't
do that unless you had once been the person who
had to.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Fix all that?
Speaker 3 (10:37):
Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Yeah, thank you, Amanda, have a great day. Thank you too,
Glad you called. Hey Jen, good morning, good morning. See Jen,
you worked at Jewel grocery store, and a lot of
these people are saying that it changed you for the better.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Definitely in what way?
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Definitely?
Speaker 6 (10:54):
It's it's easier to talk to people, and you kind
of understand just you know, give them to the beggar
the year, you know whatever, just because it's the fakes,
it easier to deal with them.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Maybe I'm just a horrible person. I don't know, but
I didn't. I don't know. I just I did.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
You're saying it gives you faith in people. It did
not give me faith in humanity to watch people.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
I don't know. Thank you, Jen, have a good day.
Speaker 6 (11:19):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
I just didn't. Hey, June, how you doing, k Brad,
I am.
Speaker 6 (11:26):
A thirteen takes for taking my cap?
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Oh my god, I made yeah take it away.
Speaker 6 (11:34):
Both my kids. You a lot of caffeine already this morning.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
God bless you.
Speaker 6 (11:39):
I'm working on it.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Good.
Speaker 6 (11:42):
I made both my kids going to service industry when
they were young. I thought it taught them great things
happen to be social, how to talk to as all
kids are afraid to talk to dolls, you know, and
that people knews are so situational like they just need
help with their help.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
It is better.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Yeah, I think you you you got to do service
industry growing up, or retail or both. You have to
do one or the other, in my opinion, because it's
the same thing. You know, you learn about people, you
learn about dealing with difficult people. You see how rude
people can be, and I think it changes your perspective
about how you treat other people. And again, but as
Jason and the rest of us, we're all conditioned for
life as a result of it.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
June, thank you for listening. Have a great day to
Thanks guy. I love you.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Yeah, I love you too. Look at all these people, man,
all these people texting me. It's the same kind of thing.
I work for Sherman Williams and I hate talking to
people about colors. I wouldn't believe you. There's so many
colors too. I don't know how many whites. It's like
seven thousand whites. I'm like, I don't know, and then whatever,
I want to get to this relay situation in a
little bit. But I found this list and it resonated
with me because the intern, benham Me not Benjamin, was

did not like people leaving the store dissatisfied. So it
carried over to my real life where like I want
to make everybody happy as much as possible, and like
make you it just everything a joyous experience. So that's
one thing. It's it like really made me a people pleaser,
(06:35):
Like I have to make I have to fix this,
like I can.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
I can fix I can give you more cheap drink.
It's just I guess I've begun to see it.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Maybe it's just a pessimist, but I began to see
it the other way where it's like I don't want
to help you because you're you're scamming me. You you
think I'm stupid, you know what I mean. I took
it personally and it wasn't my stuff, you know. But
I'm looking at you going you think I believe this,
Like I know what you're doing and you know what
you're doing, and I don't know. I began to like
really lose faith in humanity as a result, of it,
(07:06):
and that was a long time ago. Somebody texted eight
five five five one three five, I won't touch free
standing free sample. Seeing gross hands that touch things. Uh,
snow plowing makes you hate everybody, especially old people. I've
been chased down the street with a broom for putting
my snow in her driveway.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Old people be cranky.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
A hardware store learned how to fake knowledge in other
people's projects. It needs working in the hardware to part.
You were the top tire salesman and in the region I.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Worked at tires. I worked at hardware like I had
no business doing any of them. You're a liable.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
That's it comes down to being likable, really does Hey Eddie,
good morning, Good morning Eddie. You're you're one of these people.
You're like Kiki. So you were a bartender and it
made you social. You went anti social to social.
Speaker 5 (07:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I was very quiet.
Speaker 5 (08:02):
I was very anti social. I didn't really know how
to talk to people. For the most part, people would
walk over me. I was very I was very mouldible
to what other people wanted to do. And then I
bartended and within a couple of years I kind of
came out of my shell. I knew how to talk
to people. I was better with the ladies at that
point too, because I knew how to socialize. Everything opened
(08:26):
up for me. And then I don't bartend anymore. But
now when I go to a bar, I pick up
on things that I never would have picked up on before.
I could start conversations and have like long conversations with
random strangers about the simplest things, and it just comes
out of nowhere, and everybody thinks we're best friends. And
I'm like, nah, I'm just good at doing.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
The south, all right.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
So Eddie went the other way. You became a better
human for dealing with people. I think sometimes you see
people like flight attendants, for example, I feel like people
are at their very worst when they're traveling, and I
think I would get so tired of society as a
flight attendant, because I'm like, you know, I don't know
the stuff.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
That you see people do.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
I believe that you're probably a decent person, but know
that bag is not going to fit in the overhead bit.
I don't care if you say it fit on the
way down. It doesn't fit. It's not the same airplane,
and you don't own it. I don't know look at me.
I'm getting frustrated now, thank you, Eddie, have a good day.
Let me see, working in retail makes talking to those
(09:21):
combative people or angry people easier, definitely brings you out
of your shell.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Works at Jewel.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Somebody else talking about working at a grocery store in
the South called Harris Teeter. It's the same deal as
a former Target employee. I see a shelf for an
I'll all messed up, and sometimes I'll fix it because.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
I know how annoying that can be. Yes, that's what
I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Like if you were the guy that for years had
to fix all that and then you see how messed
up it is, it's like, oh, it never leaves you.
I worked at restaurants for years and other text and
one time I went out with my friend and we
were the last table and the whole place and that
I was like, Okay, let's go so they can go home.
My friend refused to leave because they were open for
twenty more minutes.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
I was so mad.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I'm a service writer for a dealership and I've lost
faith in people's common sense.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
I believe that. I believe that Hey, Amanda, good morning.
Speaker 6 (10:08):
Good morning.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Hi, so you are a current retail manager.
Speaker 6 (10:13):
Yes, I am over the style department.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Okay, and so how has it changed you? So every
time I go into the sitting room, I make sure
I hang up my clothes.
Speaker 6 (10:23):
I put it on the.
Speaker 5 (10:24):
Brag, make sure it's you know, correctly on the hangar.
Speaker 6 (10:27):
Never leave anything in the floor.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean again, And why you wouldn't
do that unless you had once been the person who
had to.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Fix all that?
Speaker 3 (10:37):
Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Yeah, thank you, Amanda, have a great day. Thank you too,
Glad you called. Hey Jen, good morning, good morning. See Jen,
you worked at Jewel grocery store, and a lot of
these people are saying that it changed you for the better.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Definitely in what way?
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Definitely?
Speaker 6 (10:54):
It's it's easier to talk to people, and you kind
of understand just you know, give them to the beggar
the year, you know whatever, just because it's the fakes,
it easier to deal with them.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Maybe I'm just a horrible person. I don't know, but
I didn't. I don't know. I just I did.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
You're saying it gives you faith in people. It did
not give me faith in humanity to watch people.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
I don't know. Thank you, Jen, have a good day.
Speaker 6 (11:19):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
I just didn't. Hey, June, how you doing, k Brad,
I am.
Speaker 6 (11:26):
A thirteen takes for taking my cap?
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Oh my god, I made yeah take it away.
Speaker 6 (11:34):
Both my kids. You a lot of caffeine already this morning.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
God bless you.
Speaker 6 (11:39):
I'm working on it.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Good.
Speaker 6 (11:42):
I made both my kids going to service industry when
they were young. I thought it taught them great things
happen to be social, how to talk to as all
kids are afraid to talk to dolls, you know, and
that people knews are so situational like they just need
help with their help.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
It is better.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Yeah, I think you you you got to do service
industry growing up, or retail or both. You have to
do one or the other, in my opinion, because it's
the same thing. You know, you learn about people, you
learn about dealing with difficult people. You see how rude
people can be, and I think it changes your perspective
about how you treat other people. And again, but as
Jason and the rest of us, we're all conditioned for
life as a result of it.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
June, thank you for listening. Have a great day to
Thanks guy. I love you.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Yeah, I love you too. Look at all these people, man,
all these people texting me. It's the same kind of thing.
I work for Sherman Williams and I hate talking to
people about colors. I wouldn't believe you. There's so many
colors too. I don't know how many whites. It's like
seven thousand whites. I'm like, I don't know, and then whatever,
