Speaker 1 (00:00):
Guys, let's talk about everyone's favorite topic on this show.
It is are you ready tipping?
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (00:06):
And Caitlin brought it up. A terrifies five nine, one,
one three five, you can call it text the same number.
I believe that most most people listening now have either
done food service of some form, or retail or both,
and I can tend you know my theory. You need
to do one or the other, or both before you
can move forth into your life. Yes, you have to
(00:27):
do one or the other because you're going to see
the worst side of humanity either way. Yes, sir, retail
or food service. I did retail. Many of you did
food service. Many of you did both. Your boyfriend works
at a bar on the weekend, yes.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Sir, and Jason, you were worried. But you maybe you,
I think you'll have an opinion on this because you
also worked as a bartender.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
But yeah, so my boyfriend has a friend who owns
a bar near our house, which is great.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
We love that for us.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
That's why I would have taken my friends your friend
right in there.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Hey, no judgment at spart I.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Did a nice thing, Okay, I know, I love I
admitted that though like.
Speaker 5 (01:05):
That's yeah, we don't believe you thought it was nice
at the time.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
We'll go with that.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
But right see, it just reminded me when you said
a rehab that had an hour wine chasing. I was like, well, hey,
you're like, hey, you know, let's let's not take it
all away at once.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
You living, you.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Learn, and you got lucky with that situation.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
He's doing fine, he's doing great, and I'm sure it
had a lot to do with that.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Intervention. Always do that on the show, you know, well,
they kind of do.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Actually, as soon as they're like spotted, they usually have
like one last hurrah in the parking lot of the
you know residency and where they just work the intervention
took place.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Have you never seen this before?
Speaker 5 (01:46):
I know they s a cigarette. I don't know if
they're like chucking market of the.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Holiday, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
They always go running around the parking lot every intervention
you'll ever watch, For some reason, it's always in a
day's in.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
I don't know why.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
I'm telling you right now, if any of you ever
stay to me meet me at the part you know,
the residence in on them, I'm like, I'm.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Not going why why are we going there?
Speaker 1 (02:09):
You know what I mean, Like, if you tell me
to go to a random holiday m express, they meet
us in a conference room at this place, and like that,
you know what, I know, I know this trick.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
This is an intervention, all right.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
So this guy, your boyfriend, works at his friend's bar
on the weekend.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
Yeah, so he bartends, and he is like Jason, where
he very much loves bartending.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
He's like Kaitlin.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
When I'm not talking to people, I get to clean
up and tidy up like he loves it, which just
cracks me up. And so this establishment polls tips, they
put all their tips together, and he was telling me,
he's like, you know, ever since I started bartending, I
started telling certain people to come in, you know, making
it known that I'm bartending, come see me. And so
people were specifically going there to see him and grab
(02:53):
a drink. And then they're tipping him, like, here's a ford,
you know, here's forty bucks, Like they're tipping him.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Because they're tipping correct, right.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
And then he's like, and then I had to take
that forty bucks and put it in the tip jar
and split it with everyone, And that's gotta suck. But
I've also never worked as a bartender or you know,
as I did retail as a waitress. So I was
just curious how people feel on pooling tips.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
You did retail as a waitress, No, I'm.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Saying I did retail.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
I was never supposed to be a waitress as opposed
to being a waitress.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
See okay, so eight five five three five. The question is,
if you ever did work in a place that pooled tips,
do you do you like that idea? You want to
know my theory. My theory is if you're the all star,
you don't like the idea. If you're somebody who went
there and didn't really like going, and I don't begrudge
you for that. But if you're someone who was just
doing the hey from office space, if you're just doing
(03:46):
the bare minimum and you're only gonna wear twelve pieces
of flair, that's your option. Okay, But that person gets
paid the same as the person who busted but to
make more tips. So is that I don't think i'd
like that? Because if I'm the person that does a
really really good job and everyone likes me, and I'm
(04:06):
averaging much higher tip count than the person who's just
doing the bare minimum, and we can come on, let's
face it, you can get mad at me about this.
Go to any place of business anywhere, and you've got
somebody overachieving and somebody underachieving, and a bunch of people
in the middle. And so I guess I'm upset about
it if I'm the overachiever, and I love it if
I'm the person who's doing the bare minimum. That being said,
(04:26):
I guess the logic is that you've got people working
at off peak times. You've got people working who don't
get as many tables as other people. You've got people
getting part of those tips who you never see, you
know what I mean, Like, I'm sure it's going to
I'm sure it's distributed among I would guess, like the
whole place. And it shouldn't be managers either. If you're
(04:46):
making a salary, you shouldn't get any of that.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
I mean, I would flirt my little tush off for tips,
so I'd be kind of passive.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
I don't think I like it. I don't think i'd
like it. I think I'll take my chances. I'll take
my chances and I'll go out on my own. Yeah,
I don't want part of your tip share. I keep
what I make I eat what I kill.
Speaker 5 (05:03):
Yep, we did chalk it up to the game sometimes,
Like I bartended for a lot of years, but I
never had anyone that, like I was sharing a bar
with that I thought was a slackers. Luckily, I've never
been in this situation, but you know, I don't know.
I sort of chalk it up to like it all
goes in the pot and then you know, some days
you're gonna have a good day, some days I'm gonna
have a good day, and it just sort of like
(05:24):
comes out in the wash. Now, normally what we would
have to do is then you give like ten percent
of your tips to the bar back ten percent of
the tips to the cook.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
So it wasn't like an equal share sort of thing.
Speaker 5 (05:34):
But basically we pulled everything together and then tipped it
out from there.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Interesting because I remember we had an event, uh and
there was one girl working like fifty of us, and
the person whose event it was gave a very very
large tip. It was almost like it was a private
It was a private event within like a larger space.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
But she basically said thank you for this.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
But it's just I don't get all of it because
she winds up putting it in the thing and then
so she contributed like four thousand percent more tips. Now
she had the private party. I don't know if that
maybe you know, she got the private party, which means
the next time someone else gets the private party, you
know what I mean. So maybe she was an advantage,
but she also had to work ten times harder than
(06:15):
everybody else because they were all they were kind of
responsible for whatever, you know, kind of who was roaming
and this woman was dedicated to the group. But it
was hard work and she was hustling and she got
paid for it, but she didn't get all of that.
Speaker 5 (06:27):
Yeah, it's kind of nuts because I feel like, like
how it was when I was working was if it
was my party, Like I'm the one working at I
get the tips. Like if you're behind a bar, that's
a communal space, so you're kind of taking care of
everyone at the same time, versus like I wouldn't like
get a tip from a table and then throw that in.
Some restaurants do that, right, which is wild to me
because like, you know, that table's assigned to you, Like
(06:49):
it's there's no chance that like my coworkers shouldn't be
working on my tables.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
You know what I'm saying, it's for me.
Speaker 6 (06:55):
Absolute No, I would be so mad you what do
you mean pull my tipsy?
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Thank you?
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Because I hate it sounds selfish. But like, if I'm
gonna go in and work twice as hard as the
next guy, and I'm gonna I may or may not
make twice as many tips, but I have a better
chance of making more money if I work twice as
hard and give you the napkins and fill your drinks
up and make sure everything's good versus the person who's
just doing what they have to do to get through
the day, which we're all entitled to do on any
(07:22):
given day. But if I'm going in there, you know,
balls to the wall that I should be able to
make the most money.
Speaker 6 (07:27):
Absolutely, they're giving her the private party because she's the
hardest worker there.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
They know they can trust her with that, that she
can handle that.
Speaker 6 (07:33):
And I hate when people, when hard workers get penalized
for being hard workers. So it's like, oh, because I
work hard work because I make it look easy, then
I don't get the credit. I gotta split the credit
with the slackers.
Speaker 7 (07:43):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Absolutely, well that's how this company works.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
The better you do the more they give you to
the amount of money that's just yeah, it's exactly. You're
a victim of your own success. It's so exciting. You know,
you're doing such a good job. Here's more for the same,
Alexis high hid morning. Hi Alexis, you used to work
with Olive Garden and they either do or did pool tips.
Speaker 8 (08:03):
Yes, we did it all the time. I was to
go specialist, so especially during time when.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
But honest, that is a special team. That is a specialty, Alexis.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Because if you're just a willing, nilly person making my
to go order, I feel like you might miss something,
you know, maybe an item gets left out, maybe I
don't get inn apkins, maybe I don't get silverware.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
You know.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
But you, Alexis, are a specialist. That is not what
people salute you. That's not happening when I get it
to go order pack by Alexis, let me assure you
everything I needs in there, because that's what you specialize in. Right.
Speaker 8 (08:41):
But uh, what if there is big pay seven of
us on at one time, definitely it would be a
smaller take out at the end of the night. But
usually we had kind of our people, especially for the
morning shifts where there'd be maybe three of us obviously
would be a bigger tip. But dinner, the dinner I
would come in and you get more essentially, but you're
(09:02):
still splitting it amongst all these people, and you would
alway trying to send people home early in order to
keep all the tips that we've done. So at the
end of the day, it was cool because we were busy,
but then it.
Speaker 9 (09:11):
Sucks just because of how many people were on the
ship at the one time that you have to slit
amongst people.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
Yeah, I think that this question is going to be
answered differently depending on who you asking on what day.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
But thank you alexis yes, see not.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
But again, I think you should be And this is
the thing about tipping that makes everybody mad every time
we talk about it. I think you should be incentivized
to you do the best job. And here's the thing.
You can argue that people don't always recognize this, and
that's them problem, But you should be incentivized if you
do a great, excellent job, you should be able to
make more money. Yes, And I don't think you should
have to give that to somebody who's not working as
(09:44):
hard as you. I just don't Hey, Crystal, Hi, Hi Crystal.
Are you in a tsunami? Are you walking directly into
the wind? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
But anyway, what do you think tip pulling?
Speaker 7 (09:57):
No?
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Tip pulling? Tit pulling is no for me.
Speaker 9 (10:01):
I'm like I am a bartender in the stripper and
in his scrivy over more than once on one occasion.
It's not fair when somebody's working very hard and then
there's other people that are standing there and then they
tip out kitchen staff, and they tip out managers on
top of it, which shouldn't be done it.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Let me tell you something, Crystal.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
If I'm a stripper and I got my own positions
and moves okay, and I had to take I had
to jump on the you know, nasty old man or
whatever that smoke right, and I don't get to keep
all that.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
No, you don't get a piece of it.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Did you mean the house mom gets tipped As far
as I'm I don't.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Like that at all, Crystal. No, I would never work
at it. When I was a stripper. I never shared
my tips at all. It was in my contract right.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
The DJ, the manager security security.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
I mean, I was out there, I was I was
taking classes on the side, you know, enhance my my moves.
You know, other guys weren't doing that. I wore the
gold to may thong. Other guys weren't doing that. I
was waxing my whole body. Other men weren't doing that.
And so you think I got a care with you,
you know, like that. All the all the grandmas would
come in, I would always take them, you know, and
not everybody would do that.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
You know.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Because I was a male, I was obviously a mail stripper. No, Crystal,
I don't like it more. I don't like a Crystal.
I agree with you.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
By the way's Crystal your stripper name? Or do you
have a stripper name?
Speaker 2 (11:19):
That's Peaches? All you know it is, I thank you Crystal, Peaches.
Speaker 8 (11:25):
Bye.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
I want to come see you, Paches. Nobody likes. No
one likes hey seventy Hi, good morning. You don't like
the tip pulling either, So no one likes. No one
is pulling up here saying they like it.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
No.
Speaker 10 (11:38):
Because I was a bar thunder and we worked at
the bar with another person, and the other person would
always take smoke breaks or supposedly bathroom breaks, and I
would be doing all the work and getting all of
the tips, but then still at the end of the night,
I would have to share with him, and then I
(12:01):
would like wind up with half of the money, like,
let's wan half the money that I would even be making.
And then I also worked as a waitress, and I'm like,
I would make more money as a waitress than bartending.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
I was.
Speaker 10 (12:16):
I would always try to refuse the bartending when they
needed it.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Yeah, well for that reason. Well let' see there you go.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
So now it's like, how long does it take of
you working hard and not getting you know, everything that
came in versus the person who didn't before.
Speaker 7 (12:31):
You're like, I forget it. No, I don't want to
work that hard either. Yep, I don't like him. Thank you, Stephanie,
have a good day. They would be like, Kiki never
has any tips. He put you up to two dollars.
That's all I got tonight, guess every time.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
I'm sorry, Yeah, the rest is in my pocket.
Speaker 10 (12:49):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
I just didn't do a good job tonight, A terrible,
awful job. As you walk out, like with money pulling
out of your pocket waiting by the phone is more

maybe you know, she got the private party, which means
the next time someone else gets the private party, you
know what I mean. So maybe she was an advantage,
but she also had to work ten times harder than
(06:15):
everybody else because they were all they were kind of
responsible for whatever, you know, kind of who was roaming
and this woman was dedicated to the group. But it
was hard work and she was hustling and she got
paid for it, but she didn't get all of that.
Speaker 5 (06:27):
Yeah, it's kind of nuts because I feel like, like
how it was when I was working was if it
was my party, Like I'm the one working at I
get the tips. Like if you're behind a bar, that's
a communal space, so you're kind of taking care of
everyone at the same time, versus like I wouldn't like
get a tip from a table and then throw that in.
Some restaurants do that, right, which is wild to me
because like, you know, that table's assigned to you, Like
(06:49):
it's there's no chance that like my coworkers shouldn't be
working on my tables.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
You know what I'm saying, it's for me.
Speaker 6 (06:55):
Absolute No, I would be so mad you what do
you mean pull my tipsy?
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Thank you?
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Because I hate it sounds selfish. But like, if I'm
gonna go in and work twice as hard as the
next guy, and I'm gonna I may or may not
make twice as many tips, but I have a better
chance of making more money if I work twice as
hard and give you the napkins and fill your drinks
up and make sure everything's good versus the person who's
just doing what they have to do to get through
the day, which we're all entitled to do on any
(07:22):
given day. But if I'm going in there, you know,
balls to the wall that I should be able to
make the most money.
Speaker 6 (07:27):
Absolutely, they're giving her the private party because she's the
hardest worker there.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
They know they can trust her with that, that she
can handle that.
Speaker 6 (07:33):
And I hate when people, when hard workers get penalized
for being hard workers. So it's like, oh, because I
work hard work because I make it look easy, then
I don't get the credit. I gotta split the credit
with the slackers.
Speaker 7 (07:43):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Absolutely, well that's how this company works.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
The better you do the more they give you to
the amount of money that's just yeah, it's exactly. You're
a victim of your own success. It's so exciting. You know,
you're doing such a good job. Here's more for the same,
Alexis high hid morning. Hi Alexis, you used to work
with Olive Garden and they either do or did pool tips.
Speaker 8 (08:03):
Yes, we did it all the time. I was to
go specialist, so especially during time when.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
But honest, that is a special team. That is a specialty, Alexis.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Because if you're just a willing, nilly person making my
to go order, I feel like you might miss something,
you know, maybe an item gets left out, maybe I
don't get inn apkins, maybe I don't get silverware.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
You know.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
But you, Alexis, are a specialist. That is not what
people salute you. That's not happening when I get it
to go order pack by Alexis, let me assure you
everything I needs in there, because that's what you specialize in. Right.
Speaker 8 (08:41):
But uh, what if there is big pay seven of
us on at one time, definitely it would be a
smaller take out at the end of the night. But
usually we had kind of our people, especially for the
morning shifts where there'd be maybe three of us obviously
would be a bigger tip. But dinner, the dinner I
would come in and you get more essentially, but you're
(09:02):
still splitting it amongst all these people, and you would
alway trying to send people home early in order to
keep all the tips that we've done. So at the
end of the day, it was cool because we were busy,
but then it.
Speaker 9 (09:11):
Sucks just because of how many people were on the
ship at the one time that you have to slit
amongst people.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
Yeah, I think that this question is going to be
answered differently depending on who you asking on what day.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
But thank you alexis yes, see not.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
But again, I think you should be And this is
the thing about tipping that makes everybody mad every time
we talk about it. I think you should be incentivized
to you do the best job. And here's the thing.
You can argue that people don't always recognize this, and
that's them problem, But you should be incentivized if you
do a great, excellent job, you should be able to
make more money. Yes, And I don't think you should
have to give that to somebody who's not working as
(09:44):
hard as you. I just don't Hey, Crystal, Hi, Hi Crystal.
Are you in a tsunami? Are you walking directly into
the wind? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
But anyway, what do you think tip pulling?
Speaker 7 (09:57):
No?
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Tip pulling? Tit pulling is no for me.
Speaker 9 (10:01):
I'm like I am a bartender in the stripper and
in his scrivy over more than once on one occasion.
It's not fair when somebody's working very hard and then
there's other people that are standing there and then they
tip out kitchen staff, and they tip out managers on
top of it, which shouldn't be done it.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Let me tell you something, Crystal.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
If I'm a stripper and I got my own positions
and moves okay, and I had to take I had
to jump on the you know, nasty old man or
whatever that smoke right, and I don't get to keep
all that.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
No, you don't get a piece of it.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Did you mean the house mom gets tipped As far
as I'm I don't.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Like that at all, Crystal. No, I would never work
at it. When I was a stripper. I never shared
my tips at all. It was in my contract right.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
The DJ, the manager security security.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
I mean, I was out there, I was I was
taking classes on the side, you know, enhance my my moves.
You know, other guys weren't doing that. I wore the
gold to may thong. Other guys weren't doing that. I
was waxing my whole body. Other men weren't doing that.
And so you think I got a care with you,
you know, like that. All the all the grandmas would
come in, I would always take them, you know, and
not everybody would do that.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
You know.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Because I was a male, I was obviously a mail stripper. No, Crystal,
I don't like it more. I don't like a Crystal.
I agree with you.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
By the way's Crystal your stripper name? Or do you
have a stripper name?
Speaker 2 (11:19):
That's Peaches? All you know it is, I thank you Crystal, Peaches.
Speaker 8 (11:25):
Bye.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
I want to come see you, Paches. Nobody likes. No
one likes hey seventy Hi, good morning. You don't like
the tip pulling either, So no one likes. No one
is pulling up here saying they like it.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
No.
Speaker 10 (11:38):
Because I was a bar thunder and we worked at
the bar with another person, and the other person would
always take smoke breaks or supposedly bathroom breaks, and I
would be doing all the work and getting all of
the tips, but then still at the end of the night,
I would have to share with him, and then I
(12:01):
would like wind up with half of the money, like,
let's wan half the money that I would even be making.
And then I also worked as a waitress, and I'm like,
I would make more money as a waitress than bartending.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
I was.
Speaker 10 (12:16):
I would always try to refuse the bartending when they
needed it.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Yeah, well for that reason. Well let' see there you go.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
So now it's like, how long does it take of
you working hard and not getting you know, everything that
came in versus the person who didn't before.
Speaker 7 (12:31):
You're like, I forget it. No, I don't want to
work that hard either. Yep, I don't like him. Thank you, Stephanie,
have a good day. They would be like, Kiki never
has any tips. He put you up to two dollars.
That's all I got tonight, guess every time.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
I'm sorry, Yeah, the rest is in my pocket.
Speaker 10 (12:49):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
I just didn't do a good job tonight, A terrible,
awful job. As you walk out, like with money pulling
out of your pocket waiting by the phone is more
