Episode 105: UberEATS

Episode 105: UberEATS

We talk about how UberEATS is destroying the middle class.

1
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:12,800
Welcome back to another episode
of A Record of My Father.

2
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:15,240
Today we're going to be talking
about how Uber Eats is

3
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:18,080
destroying the middle class.
I mean, you get off.

4
00:00:18,080 --> 00:00:21,760
Wow.
And you have people just using

5
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:23,360
lakes.
But it's crazy.

6
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:27,080
I saw somebody's build the other
day, it's like 3 to $400.00 a

7
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:30,160
month for Uber Eats.
And I'm like, how do you do

8
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,240
that?
Is are we becoming lazier as a

9
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:35,080
culture or what is this?
And then at the same time, in

10
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,680
order for a restaurant to have
Uber Eats or what is the other

11
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,880
one, DoorDash at their
restaurant, they have to pay the

12
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,000
app service.
And then there's also, yeah, you

13
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:49,920
have to pay like a subscription
service to have the delivery app

14
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:51,160
there.
It's crazy it.

15
00:00:51,480 --> 00:00:54,000
Well, it really got big.
It really got big during COVID

16
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,160
because people couldn't go to
the restaurant.

17
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:59,000
So they started ordering and,
and all the typical restaurants

18
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,720
that don't have delivery all to
just to stay in business.

19
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,880
They, they would make the food
at their restaurant and ship it

20
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,120
to you and you could order it
through DoorDash.

21
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,400
And basically the margin was
eaten completely.

22
00:01:12,960 --> 00:01:16,240
But they could make just enough
money to cover the costs, which

23
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:20,720
were the labor and all the rent
and everything else by because

24
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,400
the, the margin usually a
restaurant has is like 1012%.

25
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,560
And that's what it, that's what
Uber Eats are.

26
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,400
That's what DoorDash was
charging.

27
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,800
So they did it as a way to
survive.

28
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:36,560
And it surprises me that and I,
and I'm sure if we looked at the

29
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,800
market that those two got
hammered after the fact.

30
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:43,000
But a lot of people got used to
the idea of, hey, I want such

31
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,000
and such, 'cause I mean, I
remember the thing that always

32
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,000
that kind of freaked me out is
when I saw them bring in

33
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,720
smoothies, you know, coffee,
Yeah.

34
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,400
Or I, I want, I want 2 cups of
coffee.

35
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:59,400
I want a latte Grande El
hermesier flami flamboye.

36
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,040
Bring me that.
And it's like 995.

37
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:06,560
And you're thinking like, how in
the world can a driver pick

38
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:12,480
something up and take it to your
house and they charge you some

39
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,280
certain amount of money?
What do they charge?

40
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:15,480
5 bucks?
10 bucks.

41
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,920
Man, I remember seeing some
things on DoorDash that were

42
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:24,120
exponentially more expensive
than they, because it's

43
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,320
interesting, every restaurant's
kind of different, right In

44
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,400
compounds.
But like knowing here in LA too,

45
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,720
a lot of people are like, oh,
let's just, let's just do this.

46
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,560
Let's just deliver it.
And I'm like, you can walk down

47
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,480
the street.
You can walk.

48
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,120
We were born with legs, weirdly
enough, or bipedal organisms.

49
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:44,040
And it's kind of strange thing
to think to go to a physical

50
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,600
place.
But I would have to say that,

51
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,960
one, it's more of an experience,
and then two, the food doesn't

52
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:54,000
suck because every time I've
ordered food of any one of those

53
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,400
apps, I think the last time I
did it was it's only pizza ever.

54
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,120
Really.
Yeah, it's really only pizza.

55
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,840
Like I never do anything like
that because it sucks.

56
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,440
It's it's bad.
It's.

57
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:05,720
No, it's not.
It gets.

58
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,880
Hot boxed, it's weighted
humidity, right?

59
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,360
It gets hot boxed and the
humidity of the box that it's in

60
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,000
and then it sucks.
So I there's no reason.

61
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,400
Pasu Thai was one in particular
that we used to, we love to, we

62
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,600
eat there, but I ordered for
delivery and it's just, it's

63
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:25,120
just not the same Chinese food.
A lot of times it just doesn't

64
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:30,240
have the same, you know, unless
it's really, really good Chinese

65
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,840
food.
It it doesn't, I can't imagine

66
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,960
ordering a steak.
Take your favorite restaurant

67
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,800
and then order from it and then
it will soon become not your

68
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,640
favorite restaurant anymore
because it's a completely

69
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,960
different experience.
Well, yeah, it's, it's, it's

70
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,440
sack, you know, and the idea
that food sits, you know, and

71
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,360
it's, you know, the restaurant,
if you waited 5 minutes before

72
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,320
you served it, after it got put
out on a hot plate or 10 minutes

73
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:58,640
or 15 minutes, and you got to
figure they put it together,

74
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,320
they put it in a package to get
stapled.

75
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,400
The guys typically, he might be
there, he might not be right

76
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,600
there that takes it out.
And then he takes it and he

77
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,480
takes to you.
And you think this person, this

78
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:15,360
is probably 1/2 an hour
transaction, right?

79
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:21,000
If not longer.
And they're using their car, so,

80
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,720
you know, if they're charging
anything less than 15 bucks,

81
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,080
they're losing money.
Well, then you see the people

82
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:30,320
too, that there's sometimes they
read the app or something and it

83
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:34,000
says that the person didn't tip
them and then they like they eat

84
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,680
their food or something out of
the bank.

85
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,320
And it's so funny.
It's like, why don't you just

86
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,400
get a real job instead of
working out of your car?

87
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,840
Like, I mean, if you really
think that you deserve a fair

88
00:04:42,840 --> 00:04:46,000
wage, then get a real job.
Like, I don't know, I think that

89
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:50,240
that's super lazy is to drive
around all day and sit in your

90
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,360
car.
They want to hold the consumer

91
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,920
liable for what they can hold
their employer liable for.

92
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:00,600
And it's the same thing.
It's the same thing at

93
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:02,600
restaurants and people say you
didn't tip enough and you're

94
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:06,960
like, you know, and, and, and I
mean, I, I just, I, when I, when

95
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,800
I think about that, I always
think about the Hilton story.

96
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,960
I don't know if I told you that
is when I had the, I ordered a

97
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,920
Heineken and a cheeseburger, 22
Heineken's and a cheeseburger is

98
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:21,640
in New York Hilton.
And the guy brings it up and the

99
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:29,800
check is like 33 or 34 bucks and
it was 38 and they had added a

100
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:36,040
18% service fee and a $5
delivery fee.

101
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:38,960
And then the guy goes, I don't
get any of that.

102
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,480
And I was just like, you know,
so here I was paying 38 bucks

103
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,680
for cheese, or I mean, it really
was a cheeseburger and two

104
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:52,560
beers.
And, and I was, I shocked and I

105
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,760
didn't know what the time.
And I found out later that

106
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,320
Hilton settled and so have many
other restaurants where they

107
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,960
grab the tip money and they do
not the service, the service

108
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,560
charge and they don't give it to
the staff.

109
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,440
And you see this over and over
and over.

110
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,720
So that's why, I mean, that's
one of the reasons today that I

111
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:13,720
had tip in cash, you know,
because I know that given the

112
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,720
choice between paying the light
bill and making sure you get

113
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,720
your tip, they'll take the light
bill.

114
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,480
And then when you throw a little
greed on there, given the choice

115
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,760
between me getting another 50
bucks and you getting 50 bucks

116
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,080
as a tip, as a worker who I know
you're going to be with me for

117
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:34,360
what, a year or two or maybe who
knows, I'll take your money.

118
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:38,480
I wouldn't, I wouldn't do that
in a restaurant, but a lot of

119
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:43,000
people do Papa John's, the one
you work for, they settled, they

120
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,040
settled a suit for $12 million.
I mean, it's not pennies.

121
00:06:47,840 --> 00:06:50,280
They're they're they're they're.
You're talking about the

122
00:06:50,280 --> 00:06:52,800
delivery driver class action
lawsuit that's been going on for

123
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,400
like 20 years.
Well, there's been.

124
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,280
There's a ton of them.
Yeah, 'cause they suck, 'cause

125
00:06:57,280 --> 00:07:00,480
it's like when you're clocked
out of the restaurants $2.30 an

126
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,720
hour, and when you're driving,
that is.

127
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,760
And then when you're clocked in,
you're making minimum wage,

128
00:07:04,840 --> 00:07:07,440
which was 725 at the time for
when I was doing it.

129
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,040
But then at the same time, you
got managers to come in and say,

130
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:15,120
oh, that $60.00 school order
that you just got, $60.00 tip.

131
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,320
I get half that because I made
the 230 pizzas or whatever that

132
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,320
it was.
And then you say, well, you

133
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,040
chose this line of work about 40
years ago when you started

134
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:25,720
working here, so you can go fuck
yourself.

135
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:27,960
So that's kind of where I'm at
with that.

136
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,320
Yeah, or.
Yeah, but that's that's a one

137
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,720
off situation.
But when they add when me as a

138
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:40,360
consumer and I see gratuity on
the check, I assume that that

139
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,080
goes to the I don't.
Think it's secret too.

140
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:43,880
It's the service fee if I'm
sure.

141
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:45,320
Service.
Yeah, well, the.

142
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,800
Service fee you still would
think when service fee first

143
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,400
came out I feel like people
understood it as a tip for sure.

144
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,680
Well, they had service fee and
delivery charge.

145
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,160
Delivery charge as well.
Yeah, yeah.

146
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,160
And you're just like, well, So
what?

147
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,480
What do you get?
And it's like I I get paid 280

148
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,840
an hour and you grow like $2.00.
You don't get none of this.

149
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,000
All this add on crap that goes
to corporate.

150
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,120
Well, see, that's what they're
doing is that what they'll do is

151
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,120
they can still offer a 299
pizza.

152
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,240
They can offer at whatever price
they want and they just stick

153
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,000
all the fees below it.
You know, it's like the federal

154
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,640
subscriber line charge that
Verizon does.

155
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,320
You know that your bill's only
1999 a month?

156
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,200
Actually, no, that that's what
it costs for the line.

157
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,000
And then you got the the FCC
fee, then you got the federal

158
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,080
state tax fee and then you got
the federal subscriber in which

159
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:37,000
all those language sounds like
it's something and they're

160
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,240
they're recouping their costs.
It would be the same thing as a

161
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,360
restaurant.
At the end of the check, it said

162
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,440
the electricity fee to cook your
pizza.

163
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,920
The the the trash removal fee.
Like think about it it where you

164
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,800
have oil disposal fees.
What's the difference between

165
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,240
disposing oil and disposing
trash in the dumpster?

166
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,320
You still have to pay for it.
You could add a trash disposal

167
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,240
fee to every single bill of a
dollar and it doesn't sound like

168
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:03,720
that.
Much.

169
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:07,240
I was at a restaurant the other
day and there was a fixed 25%

170
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,240
gratuity fee on the bill.
And I was like, I was like, oh,

171
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:11,400
do you get this?
And I'm like, yeah, I'm like,

172
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,200
oh, OK, interesting.
Well, as long as they get it,

173
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,480
yeah.
See, mine is is I'm very, I'm

174
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,720
very wary of them not getting
it, you know what I mean?

175
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,400
Yeah, I like that purple guy in
your background now.

176
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:23,880
Yeah, you should have the left
of your head.

177
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,240
Arms hanging off the.
He looks like a liquid.

178
00:09:26,680 --> 00:09:29,200
Yeah, looks like a liquid guy.
He is a liquid guy.

179
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,920
He's what does that Moshi
Moushi.

180
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,880
Well, you were, you were here
for the last two and a half,

181
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,240
three weeks, and you made me
bring my microphone.

182
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:39,920
You made me bring it.
And it's £20.

183
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,400
And, and I try to do an episode
with you every day and you hit.

184
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,720
No, no, that's not true.
You.

185
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,200
Are lazy and you're getting
fired.

186
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:49,280
That's kind of.
We're caught.

187
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,640
I was not the one calling
DoorDash every day having

188
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,240
delivery.
No, I saw you talking to.

189
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,840
Drivers and the drivers knocked
on my door and came to me and

190
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,400
asked me for a tip and I said
yeah, you know, we're not

191
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:00,920
scumbags.
No, just no.

192
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:05,200
Just, well, you started Uber
Eats, it was your idea, and then

193
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,280
you sold it to Uber because you
wanted to fuck the middle class.

194
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:10,120
That's what that this whole all
was.

195
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,520
This is I love.
Making the middle class

196
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:18,080
impoverished through mental
tactics such as providing free

197
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,120
or delivery of all your favorite
restaurants.

198
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:22,840
So you.
Don't ever have to go there.

199
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,360
Yeah.
No, it's it's great.

200
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,800
Nepal how to take money from the
poor in the middle class and

201
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,440
give it to the rich.
I like that that's the way it

202
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:31,840
should be.
How I'm going to take over

203
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:33,760
Mongolia, that's what the gold.
Is no.

204
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,720
That's what you're going to do.
You're going to invent DoorDash

205
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:36,360
over there.
Yep.

206
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:37,800
We're, we're going to do
DoorDash.

207
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,520
We're going to DoorDash there.
That's what's going to happen.

208
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,280
And it's going really, it's
going to boom.

209
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,280
Yeah.
I wonder, I wonder whether what

210
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:45,880
countries don't have DoorDash,
you know?

211
00:10:47,680 --> 00:10:49,640
Well, it's it's it's DoorDash an
all.

212
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,360
Yeah, yeah, there's probably
there's a lot that it just.

213
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,640
There's a lot of foreign ones
too that are offshoots, yeah.

214
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,200
They only allow like these
certain ones instead of the

215
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,520
other ones, yes.
That's.

216
00:11:01,680 --> 00:11:11,880
True, there's more control.
Well, is DoorDash International?

217
00:11:12,680 --> 00:11:15,320
I I think DoorDash is but Uber
eats is not if I remember.

218
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:16,840
No.
Uber Eats definitely is as well.

219
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,840
Yeah, got to be, yes, DoorDash
International Company operating

220
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,760
several countries beyond the
United States.

221
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:26,760
It has expanded reach through
both direct operations and

222
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:30,280
acquisitions, including the
purchase of Walt and Deliveroo.

223
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,560
What is it think about
Deliveroo?

224
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,040
Who is that?
That's the Aussies, yeah.

225
00:11:35,680 --> 00:11:38,720
Exactly.
I mean, that's great, Deliveroo.

226
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:39,960
I knew that.
I knew that.

227
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,400
You know what that is?
It's in Europe, Canada,

228
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,000
Australia, New Zealand, Japan.
It's funny how they go

229
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,240
countries, but then they also
mentioned continent because

230
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,080
we're just not going to name all
these places in Europe.

231
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:52,800
It is.
Yeah, that's a lot of places in

232
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,120
Europe.
Well, you know, as long as the

233
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,440
cities are close to the place to
deliver.

234
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,040
But there's there's like a
combination here.

235
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:03,000
It's like you want a person,
it's going to run 6 blocks away,

236
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:04,920
pick up hot food and bring it to
you.

237
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,400
How much do you want to pay him
to do that?

238
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,880
Do you want to pay him 7 bucks?
8 bucks, 10 bucks, you know, and

239
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:11,880
that's what, that's what you're
doing.

240
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,520
And if you're getting a cup of
coffee, I, I don't understand

241
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,280
the metrics on that.
Also, I don't understand the,

242
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:22,160
the abject laziness of an
individual that wouldn't do

243
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:23,480
that.
And I understand there's,

244
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,600
there's always, you know, you
can come back and say, well, you

245
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:30,360
know, but so and so can't walk
or is, I mean, I had issues with

246
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,400
my tendons.
I couldn't, I couldn't move.

247
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,920
Well, your, your, your mother
had her knee replacement, so she

248
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,080
was off her feet for a while.
I would understand a person like

249
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,520
that doing it.
I just like Meals on Wheels

250
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:43,880
which shows first is cancelled
but.

251
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,160
Oh, is that really done now?
Is that done?

252
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,480
Yeah, they're they're they're
whacking like half the budget or

253
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:49,960
so.
I don't it's, it's a it's a big

254
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,520
dollar amount of it that they're
getting rid of and it's it's

255
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:56,680
really severe.
I mean, I just got Capillary

256
00:12:56,680 --> 00:12:58,320
Food Bank, somebody with support
here.

257
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:03,400
It's in a greater DMZDM.
What are what are we the DMV?

258
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,960
Yeah, Maryland, Virginia
District.

259
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:10,000
You said Maryland 1st and notice
that.

260
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,040
Yeah, I don't know how to count.
Why don't you say it first?

261
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:13,280
It's DM.
'Cause I don't know how to count

262
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,320
man I'm bad at.
District of Columbia.

263
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:20,120
But but they they in their in
their material.

264
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:27,040
This one charity covers the food
bank for this area lost 1.3

265
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:32,000
million for one food program and
another million from another

266
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:36,120
food program.
So there was $2.3 million just

267
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:40,240
one place and and you know, I'm
like.

268
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,040
Of government funding.
Is that what you're talking

269
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:42,560
about?
Government.

270
00:13:42,560 --> 00:13:44,160
Funding, that's what government
did.

271
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,600
I mean, when you look at all the
agencies that were doing this

272
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,160
stuff, they were, they were
supporting all the local

273
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,800
businesses and that's how they
could get people to like them

274
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,280
and love them is the fact that
they're, you know, they're using

275
00:13:55,560 --> 00:14:01,480
the locals to support, to
support the economy and also to

276
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,280
feed the poor.
And so they were buying food

277
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:08,960
locally from the farmers that
were distressed and then they

278
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,360
were feeding it to the people
that had no food and the

279
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:16,080
government was supporting that,
which kind of makes like sense,

280
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,600
you know?
And yes, there were, there's 1

281
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,080
to 3% thieves.
They're all in there.

282
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,280
There's always criminals, you
know, But we got a, we got a

283
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:28,320
budget of the 97% because of the
3%.

284
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:29,720
It's just the way it is, you
know?

285
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,880
Every politician is a criminal.
But I'm going to get a raise,

286
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,200
man.
Is for the people anymore.

287
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,720
But this is both.
Sides are awful, But yeah, no,

288
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:42,960
this is DoorDash.
And if we're talking about

289
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:46,600
DoorDash, we got to talk about
Postmates, which was the first

290
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,160
food delivery service.
Really.

291
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,160
Yeah.
Of all of them, Uber Eats.

292
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,920
Before Uber Eats, before any of
that, it was Postmates.

293
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:56,160
I think it was Sherwin Domino's.
Well, I mean also like if you

294
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,600
really want to go back, we could
talk about pizza, but I'm

295
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,320
talking about like ones that did
restaurants, like actually

296
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,720
restaurant.
That did more than one and had.

297
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,320
That more than pizza, because
pizza, I mean rudimentary, is

298
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,200
the first kind of delivery.
Oh my God, do you know what it

299
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:12,360
was called?
What was it?

300
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,400
It was called the Worldwide
waiter.

301
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,800
Oh, is that the first one?
Yeah, it was launched in 1995.

302
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,560
Wow, what was it?
The first online restaurant

303
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,240
delivery service aggregating
menus from over 60 restaurants

304
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,120
in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Wow.

305
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:29,080
Well, Pizza Hut launched
Pizzanet in 1994 is primarily

306
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:33,000
for their own locations.
And then the rise of apps were

307
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,000
what was the first the concept
Food delivery apps took off with

308
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,600
smartphones.
Boom, and you have Grubhub,

309
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,520
DoorDash, Uber Eats, Postmates
became prominent players in this

310
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,200
area.
Yeah, I wonder.

311
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,840
If somebody buy Postmates?
That's what I'm wondering.

312
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,400
You would think.
Yeah, Well, one would think.

313
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,040
Right, that's what we do with
this.

314
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:59,000
One would think.
Oh, well, I remember it was

315
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:05,840
called, what was it, Webvan?
Remember that huge, huge

316
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,560
billions of dollars in it.
They were going to have a

317
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:11,360
nationwide food delivery service
and not food, groceries.

318
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,160
And they had warehouse set up
all over the United States and

319
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:18,800
people and they had trucks.
And later you see like Giant did

320
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,800
the green, whatever the heck it
is, the green thumb.

321
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,680
Green Giant or whatever.
Yeah, a couple of those couple,

322
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:30,000
small local area ones did that.
Web vans was the original 1.

323
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,480
I knew the guys that started it.
And that's what was kind of cool

324
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,640
because you know when they they
did this and then go go 90s in

325
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,040
the Internet when everybody
could order food without food

326
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:42,840
but groceries online and they
had a van service.

327
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,280
And I mean, it was, it was big.
It was big.

328
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,160
It's like 30 billion.
It was huge.

329
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,480
National, they were going to go
international.

330
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,800
They they went public.
They sold a bunch of shares.

331
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,440
And then all of a sudden they
started to realize that a lot of

332
00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:00,120
people like me.
I want to go to the store.

333
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:05,920
I want to see, I want to see
that my banana is the banana

334
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,000
that I want.
Most people are lazy.

335
00:17:09,079 --> 00:17:13,480
I think that that that COVID
kind of changed the philosophy

336
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:17,920
of a lot of people Where those
delivery apps really first they,

337
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:21,760
they were a necessity and then
they've been a necessity for

338
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,880
people that were homebound for
years.

339
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,520
So they were basically a
godsend.

340
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,680
Or maybe not a guy, an atheist
A.

341
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,480
Godsend is a funny thing to talk
about.

342
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,240
Yeah, it is something they were,
they were they were incredibly

343
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:40,440
helpful for people that you
know, had that need and then.

344
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,240
Pizza Hut Online was certainly a
godsend.

345
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,280
For me, well, you can't.
You can't eat pizza every day.

346
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,640
That's what I'm saying.
For there's the variety of it.

347
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,360
You'd have to find delivery you
know was Chinese food, pizza,

348
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,640
Mexican.
Chinese really, if you think

349
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,400
about it, was the first
restaurant delivery thing other

350
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,360
than pizza, right?
Because you could always get

351
00:18:00,360 --> 00:18:02,520
Chinese.
They always had delivery

352
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:03,840
drivers.
I see.

353
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:08,440
I remember when I graduated from
college.

354
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,520
You want $80?
Yeah, in 80.

355
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:17,440
Five ODU overdose university
anyway, anyway, that's great.

356
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,760
I, I, I and then, then I got out
and I got and after I got my

357
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,960
four year degree, I went back
and I took orientation and got

358
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,720
my 2 year degree.
I need to go do that when I

359
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:27,160
visit.
You got to go do orientation

360
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,680
because that was so cool because
I went to the Woodbridge campus,

361
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:34,200
you know, NVCC where they.
Well, they pissed me on.

362
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,640
They pissed me off because I
need to take a four credit class

363
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,440
for a one credit science, like a
science credit.

364
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:42,120
And I said you guys are
ridiculous.

365
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:44,240
You guys are incredibly.
Ridiculous.

366
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,760
Well, you should be able to
apply your UVA credits to it.

367
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:48,840
That's what I did.
I.

368
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,200
Just went back and reversed that
and they said we what about

369
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:52,520
that?
You're missing your blah blah

370
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,360
blah blah blah humanities.
I'd been there for like 4 or

371
00:18:55,360 --> 00:19:00,120
five years.
I'd taken 1 1/2 to 2X times the

372
00:19:00,120 --> 00:19:02,600
number of.
But I had like, oh, you got 37

373
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,120
science credits, but you only
need 4.

374
00:19:04,360 --> 00:19:09,040
You know, you need 7.
You need 70 math credits, You

375
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,000
got 3.
Yeah, I think I needed nine and

376
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:13,520
I had eight and I'm like, this
is ridiculous.

377
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,080
Well, I I.
Supplied all my finance classes

378
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:19,440
and all that stuff back to
associates and they said well

379
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,520
you you can't graduate unless
you take orientation and I'm

380
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,560
just like that.
I just thought that was comical

381
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:30,120
because it was a one hour class.
It was a tour of the campus and

382
00:19:30,120 --> 00:19:33,120
that was one credit and that was
the only thing keep me from my

383
00:19:33,120 --> 00:19:35,680
associate's degree.
And so my associate's degree is

384
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,800
actually after my four year
degree.

385
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,120
It's really kind of.
Well, that's funny too, because

386
00:19:40,120 --> 00:19:44,120
orientation class now for that,
that school is different.

387
00:19:44,120 --> 00:19:46,120
It's a full semester long
course.

388
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:50,800
And then at the same time, you
have to like, you're in groups

389
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,240
of like 4 or something, and you
have to do like two or three

390
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:58,960
group projects about the rules
or something of a Community

391
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:00,160
College.
And I'm like, this is the

392
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,560
stupidest thing.
No wonder people drop out of

393
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:05,560
here.
That's like an 86% drop out rate

394
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,200
because yeah, your first class
is the stupidest thing ever.

395
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:10,640
I never saw something which I
thought would have been really,

396
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:16,560
really good.
Is a a class that taught like

397
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,040
personal finance?
We used to have those.

398
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:21,720
We didn't.
We never had one in high school.

399
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,080
We should have had one.
We never had one on.

400
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,960
And when I was in high school,
we learned about civics.

401
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,200
We learned about the various
branches of the government and

402
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:31,280
things like that.
We learned them.

403
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,840
We didn't do them well, but we
know pretty well.

404
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:37,280
We, we, we had classes on them
in college.

405
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,920
I think that it would have been
really, really good.

406
00:20:40,360 --> 00:20:45,040
If they had a.
Full semester course on getting

407
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:51,360
a job, you know, from resumes to
interviews to how to dress to

408
00:20:51,360 --> 00:20:55,240
who to speak to to.
I mean, that would be a 10 week

409
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,560
course that everybody should
take.

410
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,200
Because when you get out,
because don't you want to?

411
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,280
I mean, unless you're going to
go, oh, you're, you're wealthy

412
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,000
rich person and you just want to
go piss off in Europe for a

413
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:07,520
year.
But even if you do, you still

414
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:10,320
want that.
I mean, I think that that

415
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,240
colleges like UVA, the one you
went to, I know very good school

416
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,960
and you're not very smart or
just I got that backwards

417
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:22,240
anyway.
My father, everybody welcome.

418
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,120
Welcome back.
Yeah.

419
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:29,080
Anyway, anyway, what I was
thinking is, is that they do a

420
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,680
lot with recruitment and they
and they give you they have

421
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:36,080
mixers so you can meet like
company people are seeking to

422
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,960
hire people from UVA so they
meet here and they have that.

423
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,200
So they bring them in to
actually hire you but they don't

424
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:45,200
like teach you.
I don't know if there there is a

425
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:50,640
clear classes on how to act,
what to say, what to speak.

426
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,240
No, I don't think all that.
Kind of stuff.

427
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,960
Resume writing.
I mean, when you walk out of

428
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:59,720
college after four years, you
should have a LinkedIn profile.

429
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,680
It should be bulletproof. 100%
it should.

430
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,400
Well, they nobody ever taught me
how to make a resume either.

431
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,400
That's why my resume now, Yeah,
it's like really bad.

432
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,800
Like I look at it, I'm like, I
wouldn't even hire me.

433
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,960
Jesus.
I had nothing and I paid $100

434
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:17,640
and $85.
OK, I had somebody get me.

435
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:23,880
They did.
I put together my resume and I

436
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:24,520
didn't.
I can't.

437
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,400
I can't type for crap.
Couldn't type for crap.

438
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,040
Then there were not.
There weren't computers.

439
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,640
That's how old I am.
So I wrote it down on a piece of

440
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:35,880
paper and I gave it to somebody.
They typed it out and they laid

441
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:37,280
it out.
And then they gave it to me for

442
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,560
for two iterations.
One was change, correct all the

443
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:43,400
errors.
And then it was like, this looks

444
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:45,600
like shit.
And you can't put, you can't put

445
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:47,120
naked pictures of yourself on
your resume.

446
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,560
You know, I was like, OK.
I tried doing that too on

447
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:51,800
indeed.com.
They didn't like it, they got

448
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:53,320
banned, they got mad.
Why did?

449
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,480
They say indeed.
What do you mean when?

450
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,400
You talk about circumferences in
size.

451
00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,280
It doesn't really work out too
well, but.

452
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,600
Well, if you use centimeters, as
long as you don't say CM

453
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:04,920
afterward, it looks really big.
That is true.

454
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,840
That is a very, very good point.
It's all like the scale.

455
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,680
That's where, that's where we
should be using metrics as

456
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,920
opposed to using, yeah.
It's all to scale.

457
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:19,400
Isn't everything to scale?
About 35 centimeters.

458
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,960
There you go.
You ever get itchy eye in the

459
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,480
corner?
Yeah, I'm not a big fan of.

460
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:30,080
That I got like I got the big
I'm Mr. Bags.

461
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:34,280
Me as well, I'm a tired guy.
I haven't spent bags forever and

462
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,040
you know when I was looking at
things and DoorDash doesn't do

463
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,880
anything with it but.
You have hooded eyes, that's the

464
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:41,200
thing.
Yeah, I'm.

465
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,600
Kind of monkey head.
Well, no, you're that's a

466
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,360
naturally born thing that you
you have is hooded eyes.

467
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:48,960
I don't have hooded eyes so.
Instead of natural.

468
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:50,280
Born.
You were born with the hooded

469
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:51,920
eyes.
A natural born hood.

470
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,040
Does that matter?
Does that impact how you see?

471
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,200
Yeah, it does.
I mean it.

472
00:23:56,200 --> 00:24:02,600
It it, what it does for me is
that's how high I can see up

473
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,120
where my finger is.
I can just see it right there.

474
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,200
Hold yours.
Where do where do you go?

475
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,040
Can you see higher?
The thumb or the finger?

476
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,520
Just pick one right there, right
there, OK, right there.

477
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:16,480
I.
Mean you're not that much more

478
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:17,880
than me.
Yeah, not really.

479
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:19,160
I don't think it doesn't really.
Matter.

480
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,560
You know it matters how big your
forehead is, right it?

481
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:22,640
Gets.
I think that that's really,

482
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:24,720
yeah, that is kind of a good.
Point forehead gets in the way,

483
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:34,080
but you know the bags are like
years of alcohol abuse and years

484
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:38,480
of no sleeping and sleeping on 2
hours, 3 hours, four hours when

485
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,000
with the various different
companies that I was involved in

486
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:45,160
and the late nights of drinking
with all of the librarians.

487
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,200
I just got to thank the American
Association of Law Libraries and

488
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:54,080
a special library association
for her for making me a serious

489
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,200
drunk.
It's their fault, not mine.

490
00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:58,520
I had no.
Choice.

491
00:24:59,360 --> 00:25:02,320
But any addiction, any personal
addiction, is always somebody

492
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:03,720
else's fault.
Mainly your parents.

493
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,200
Mainly your parents is who you
blame because it is their fault.

494
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,040
If you think about it, deep
down, nothing is ever your

495
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,080
fault.
You always blame it on somebody.

496
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,280
I think, I think you can blame
everything on your parents until

497
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:19,920
you're 18 and then you're 21.
And then maybe if you stick

498
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,680
around a little while longer,
you can still blame them.

499
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:28,760
But around 2324, you know, I
think you're, there's a, there's

500
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:33,120
got to be some point where
what's happening in your life is

501
00:25:33,120 --> 00:25:36,520
your responsibility.
And anything that's happened

502
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:40,080
before, there's also a certain
amount of like, well, you know,

503
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,360
I can, I can blame my parents
did bad stuff, but they all want

504
00:25:43,360 --> 00:25:45,920
the good stuff too.
You know, they were the ones

505
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,800
that they really pushed
education on me in a

506
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:52,840
neighborhood which was blue
collar and people were, Oh,

507
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:56,040
you're a college boy, you know,
and you're like, what the fuck,

508
00:25:56,400 --> 00:26:00,880
you know, And now if I hear that
kind of talk, it really bothers

509
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,040
me.
And I, I, I want to, I don't

510
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:06,520
want people to think that
learning is bad.

511
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:08,800
You know, whether you go to
college, whether you do trades,

512
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:14,400
whatever, learning, advancing
the knowledge of our planet or

513
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:18,240
just taking English, you know,
or anything that that expands

514
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:21,760
your mind is a wonderful thing
for society.

515
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:25,200
I think as a whole that just
just just my own little blah,

516
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,440
blah, you know, well.
I've heard people are like, I

517
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,440
don't like to learn.
And I'm like, what does that

518
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,200
even mean?
Like, what is it you learn on a

519
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,760
daily basis of, yeah, when
somebody pulls into your lane

520
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:36,880
and you don't die in a car
crash, you learned how to

521
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:38,920
mitigate a car crash, like,
right there.

522
00:26:39,360 --> 00:26:43,120
Maybe they don't want to change?
They don't like.

523
00:26:43,360 --> 00:26:46,440
Change is the bigger one.
Because you can learn anything

524
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,240
by accident.
People learn things by accident.

525
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,760
I find that I found that a lot
with like people that didn't

526
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:53,000
want to be managers because they
didn't want to manage people.

527
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,800
They didn't, they didn't, they
didn't want to deal with people

528
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,600
expressive.
Well, see, it's really easy when

529
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,440
you're when you have a business
to, to give people raises and to

530
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,280
tell them everything's going
good and you're a wonderful

531
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:05,960
person and all that.
And it is very, very difficult

532
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,760
to look somebody in the eye and
say you're not cutting it,

533
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,960
you're fired.
That's, that's, that's a very,

534
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:16,640
very hard thing to do.
And, and this is going to, this

535
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:22,240
is what itself, whatever, but it
hurts a lot when you whack

536
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,880
somebody really hurts.
It hurts me.

537
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:26,960
I don't know a lot.
Maybe it affects everybody

538
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:31,400
differently, but I, but at the
end of the day, I still have a

539
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,240
freaking job.
They don't.

540
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:38,920
So I'm not bitching about that.
And the only reason I mean, we,

541
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:44,640
we most of the reasons that we
got rid of people is it was

542
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,560
performance.
And if and if people can't

543
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,480
perform, they drag the whole
boat down.

544
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,200
Exactly.
I mean, if they're not doing

545
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:54,880
their job correctly, you got to
go over to them.

546
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:55,800
That's how.
It works.

547
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,320
That's how it works.
Man, and you know you could.

548
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,800
Try and change them, but that
has nothing to do with DoorDash,

549
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:03,920
you know, you got to fire them.
I wonder how.

550
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:07,920
Well, see, I think that that the
DoorDash, the Ubereats, the

551
00:28:08,120 --> 00:28:11,920
YouTube, what is it?
A lot of those people too are

552
00:28:12,120 --> 00:28:16,960
they wait for a second order so
that they can do 2 orders at

553
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:18,640
once.
And ever since they tried that,

554
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,000
that makes delivery times three
times as long, and it makes you

555
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,640
want to shoot yourself.
Well, the first order's cold.

556
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,880
And then, and then I think the I
think The thing is, is that a

557
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:32,520
lot of people that do that, it
gives them the entrepreneurial

558
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:37,120
spirit to say I can choose my
own hours, even though they were

559
00:28:37,120 --> 00:28:39,240
15 hours a day.
I can do what?

560
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:43,440
I can decide not to do something
because I'm my own boss.

561
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,280
There is no one at the boss of
me.

562
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:49,560
No one gets to tell me what to
do when in reality, you know,

563
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:53,440
I'm telling them what to do.
Everyone gets to tell them what

564
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,960
to do because we're, they're
dependent on us for their

565
00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:01,120
livelihood, you know, And it's
like, I think that I think that

566
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:07,320
there's a certain amount of it's
people that for I, I, I, I don't

567
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,360
know what people would enjoy
doing Uber Eats other than, you

568
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,440
know, cab drivers, you think,
you know.

569
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:16,560
That's yeah, it's mainly Uber
drivers who are the Uber Eats or

570
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,520
the people that don't have
because Uber in general, if you

571
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,720
want to be a cab driver, you
need a car within the last put

572
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,960
up though it has been like put
out within the last three years.

573
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:29,240
And so that scrapes a lot of
people off the map and those

574
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,480
really you can't get those jobs
because their car isn't new.

575
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:36,640
Just do the Uber or Uber Eats.
And you know in, in, in under 10

576
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,760
years that that's gone.
What do you mean?

577
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:41,600
Oh yeah, it's all going to be
like.

578
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:43,800
Uber's gone.
AI or something they got no.

579
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:47,040
It's going to be Waymo.
It's going to be Waymo or, you

580
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:50,040
know, whatever, whack A mole or.
But nobody will replace this

581
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:51,160
podcast, I'll tell you that
much.

582
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:53,640
Unless you die, I'm going to
have to get another guy.

583
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,520
I'm going to hire an actor
that's going to just emulate

584
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:56,880
you.
He's going to listen to 150

585
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:58,440
episodes of this.
Well, you think I'm going to

586
00:29:58,440 --> 00:29:58,880
talk to him?
You.

587
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,720
Should go into a hate filled
rant for at least three or 4

588
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:06,800
episodes on why I'm a selfish
bastard because I died. 100%,

589
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:08,600
absolutely.
What I'm going to do is I'm

590
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,680
going to really go for the grief
points.

591
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:12,960
I'm going to really try to do
that and it's going to be the

592
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,480
first episode is going to be my
dad died in all caps with

593
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:16,880
exclamation points.
Everybody knows.

594
00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,800
And then it's going to be my dad
died exclamation point,

595
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,040
exclamation point.
This is the next one.

596
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,200
Sorry, Part 2.
And then it's going to be

597
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:24,920
there's going to be a part three
and four, of course.

598
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,320
And those are probably going to
be the highest streamed episodes

599
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:28,640
are.
You going to put skulls and

600
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:30,320
stuff on them?
And then I'll bring the actor

601
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:34,960
and I'll say I paid this actor
to listen to all 150 hours of

602
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:39,080
our content and now I'm just
going to talk to him and that's

603
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:40,560
what we're going to do.
And then he's going to pretend

604
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:42,480
to be my father for probably
until.

605
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:44,720
And you're going to call it a
record of my new dad?

606
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,920
That exactly.
I guess we'll rebrand it.

607
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:49,040
That way.
Well, that's that's a good one

608
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,400
that works.
This is true.

609
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:57,040
Well see it if if if I got bored
and I got tired of talking to

610
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,720
you, I'd just buy me another
kid.

611
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:02,760
Exactly.
Yeah, you could do that.

612
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,360
And it would be and it'd be a
record of my other kid.

613
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,760
Or a hamster or something.
You've had hamsters.

614
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:13,160
Yeah, we sure have Jenny Tails.
I don't miss him he's an ass

615
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:18,000
he's a worse he bit me stuff.
I was bleeding all over the

616
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:23,920
place Yeah oh Speaking of which
I I got these shorts 2 days ago

617
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:29,240
and their butter stain is all
over the crotch and I don't

618
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:30,560
think these are going to survive
I.

619
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:35,840
Don't you have you have a thing
about buying something new For

620
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,760
some reason?
If you buy something for 6 bucks

621
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:43,720
from the the the thrift store,
you can wear it forever and it

622
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:45,600
never gets dirty.
You never spill anything on it.

623
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,960
You go out and you buy one
expensive shirt, within within

624
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,360
two hours you're going to have a
spaghetti stain.

625
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:53,720
Right.
It's always spaghetti or a red

626
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:55,800
sauce.
It's never been butter on the

627
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,760
crotch before.
I do have to say that it's never

628
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:00,240
been that.
Before do you want to tell the

629
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:01,480
story about the butter on the
crotch?

630
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,120
Oh, well, I was at a restaurant
and, you know, like how they

631
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:05,960
give you fajitas.
Yeah.

632
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:09,040
And how fajitas sometimes come
with the butter in like the

633
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:11,200
little thing.
Was that the randos?

634
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:12,720
Randos.
Rangos, Yeah.

635
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:14,800
Tysons Point, Virginia.
Love that chimichang.

636
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,800
Really good, right?
Really, really good they were.

637
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,080
I thought they were like shit,
but you know.

638
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:24,120
It was not great when me and you
first went there.

639
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,040
Yeah, but I'm going to say the
last three years we hammered

640
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:28,280
there.
What?

641
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:30,120
We weren't.
We didn't even drink.

642
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,640
No, no, we didn't even drink.
I didn't even drink this time

643
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,760
either.
Yeah, I didn't drink the last

644
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,920
time.
I drank the time before the last

645
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:41,400
three years ago, but God.
So it comes with butter, right?

646
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,840
And the little kind of ketchup
container thing, you know, the

647
00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,040
little, like condom.
Yeah.

648
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:47,720
And fajitas sometimes come with
butter, right?

649
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:49,880
And I'm eating.
It's weird to me.

650
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:51,880
Well, it's great butter.
It's delicious.

651
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,920
And then you put it on the
fajita, like on the bread, but

652
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,160
then it leaks out, right, 'cause
it doesn't get absorbed.

653
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,200
Yeah.
And then a hot butter stain on

654
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,040
your crotch.
And that's kind of.

655
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,520
But I thought because when you
picked a glass of water up right

656
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,200
though, you know how the
condensation off the glass kind

657
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,320
of falls down, I thought that
that's what was falling on me,

658
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:14,160
not the butter from the fajita.
So I didn't clean it.

659
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,640
And here we are two days later
with the butter stained on the

660
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:18,040
crotch.
I pretty much have to throw

661
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:20,800
these away at this point, but I
guess I'll give it a shot.

662
00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:23,000
We'll see.
See, that's why I always like

663
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,240
when I eat.
I lean over the plate.

664
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:27,040
Oh, I thought I had a napkin on
my lap.

665
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,000
I guess I didn't.
No, I'm a pig.

666
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,680
So that's why that's why I
always move forward.

667
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,680
I lean, I take a bite over the
plate and then I move back

668
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:38,920
because I just I have there's
there's too many funny stories

669
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:42,080
that I have in my family.
Seeing people drop shit down the

670
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,240
front of their shirts.
It's so bad.

671
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:45,120
That's.
So.

672
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:47,160
Bad.
That's the reason I wear this.

673
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:50,280
This I have this is I've had
this on for two days.

674
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:55,640
You can tell I have my T-shirt
on.

675
00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,040
It's.
What do you call it?

676
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,800
Hanes.
No, no, it's it's it's true

677
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:04,080
classic.
I really.

678
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:07,160
Like it, whatever that is.
Really good soft cotton, better

679
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,639
than Hanes I think, but that's
just me.

680
00:34:09,639 --> 00:34:12,239
What was I thinking about too?
The afflictions other than

681
00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:14,080
alcohol.
Makes my arms look bigger.

682
00:34:14,199 --> 00:34:19,120
Than your side of the family has
given me is definitely spilling

683
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:23,520
stuff all over you all the time.
No matter where you are, you'll

684
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:25,760
just look at your hands and
you'll be covered in something.

685
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,000
You think that's the drinking or
you think that's just?

686
00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:31,000
This is me sober.
So I that's just sloppy.

687
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,159
I don't know.
It's just a it's like a woolly

688
00:34:34,159 --> 00:34:38,639
mammoth eating a bunch of
ketchup covered fries.

689
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,360
It's just a nightmare to get.
The woolly mammoth gets covered

690
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,880
in the ketchup and it gets it
all over his horns and stuff

691
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:48,120
like that.
Yeah, all over his horns, horns,

692
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,040
the woolly mammoth.
It was really hairy

693
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:55,280
eccentrically just gets covered
in ketchup and he just.

694
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:59,320
Did Mamas have teeth?
Yeah, they're not like whales.

695
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:02,760
They're not like whales where
they have like the the yarn

696
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:04,720
teeth.
I remember I saw a whale's mouth

697
00:35:04,720 --> 00:35:06,960
one time.
Did not like it, did not do it.

698
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,360
The what is it called?
It's like the Brills or

699
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,400
something I don't like.
Yeah, bad, bad.

700
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,200
They eat krill.
Yeah, they eat krill.

701
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:15,840
Oh, maybe that's something.
Remember we saw that when they

702
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,640
were going around in a circle,
like 300 meters and then they

703
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:22,560
just swirl around in a circle to
chase the curl to the center.

704
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:26,240
And then they then they whoop up
and come up splashing out with

705
00:35:26,240 --> 00:35:27,920
their mouth wide open.
And that's how they catch the

706
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:30,080
curl.
And it was just amazing to see

707
00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:31,880
it.
But hey, that has nothing to do

708
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:33,600
with DoorDash either.
But.

709
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:36,360
I want to keep making that
comment.

710
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:38,600
They keep.
What do you keep commenting on?

711
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:40,160
How?
That has nothing to do with Uber

712
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,360
Eats or whatever.
I wonder if I wonder if they

713
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:47,120
could teach whales to deliver.
Well, I don't know.

714
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:49,480
The whale delivery service.
How that works?

715
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:51,320
No.
And I'm getting really bad

716
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:54,000
reflux right now.
Yeah, I don't know why.

717
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:55,320
I think it's the angle that I'm
sitting.

718
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:59,880
What did you eat?
I ate a Turkey bacon, tomato,

719
00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:03,040
avocado sandwich.
Oh wow.

720
00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:07,120
From Gianna's.
Oh, that's a place we go to,

721
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:08,680
right?
Yeah, but you got all the stuff

722
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,280
for when we had the Beverly
Hills Film Festival.

723
00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:13,000
Oh, yeah.
Do you remember that?

724
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:15,520
We bought a bunch of sandwiches,
brought them over, everybody got

725
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,680
these sandwiches.
I really like those sandwiches.

726
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:18,360
And.
But.

727
00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:21,200
And that was another one of
those places that half their

728
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,600
business was easily DoorDash,
or.

729
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,400
You should have seen the guys
sitting outside the restaurant.

730
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,320
There was about seven of them
waiting for deliveries.

731
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:30,920
It's crazy.
Yeah.

732
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:33,520
And you go in there and you're
like, there's two people in

733
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:35,920
line.
You're like, wow, yeah, they're

734
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:37,600
like, it'll be 1/2 hour, you
know, like what?

735
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:41,680
And it's like not all those the
we got 18,000 orders.

736
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:43,240
And that's, I start seeing that
everywhere.

737
00:36:43,240 --> 00:36:48,120
It's like when we look at, I
mean, I see restaurants that I

738
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:52,360
go into now and Chopped, for
instance, here in McLane.

739
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:54,200
Chopped is great.
Would Chop still exist in

740
00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:55,200
McLane?
Yeah.

741
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:58,200
And it's and it's empty.
It's, it's the one that's over

742
00:36:58,200 --> 00:36:59,320
by Cava.
It's moved.

743
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,200
It's not in the same place.
It's not there anymore.

744
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,120
Where is it now?
Yeah, it's over by the liquor

745
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:04,160
store.
It's over there.

746
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,480
Well, the liquor store is next
to the cava.

747
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:08,120
What are you talking about,
Cava?

748
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:16,320
No, there's the liquor cleaners
liquor store, McLean hardware,

749
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:22,000
cava, then chopped, then the
auto parts store.

750
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:23,840
It's always been there.
Yeah.

751
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,720
What are you talking about?
There used to be a chop that was

752
00:37:26,720 --> 00:37:31,320
over where the what's the
burrito place burrito.

753
00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:33,800
Place.
Yeah, Chipotle.

754
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:37,640
Chipotle used to go.
That was chopped originally.

755
00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:39,520
That was something else.
That was sweet green.

756
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:42,480
That was sweet green.
I am.

757
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:46,040
Oh, sweet green didn't survive
because that's a terrible

758
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,560
occasion.
Yeah, because you don't see it.

759
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:52,360
The windows are blacked out, and
it's one of those blacked out

760
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:54,800
apart or not apartment, but
complexes.

761
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:59,520
Kind of like when you go out to
ski chalet, you know, ski

762
00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:01,960
chalet.
Oh there everything is blacked

763
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,000
out windows for some reason.
What is that all about?

764
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,120
What is with the Blacked?
Out windows in office parks, I

765
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,440
don't know.
Maybe it saves on ACI, don't

766
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,240
know.
But that's, you know, you drive

767
00:38:12,240 --> 00:38:14,480
up and you see nothing in the
window and you get no, you get

768
00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:17,040
no enticements.
But the ski chalet still exists.

769
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:19,400
Yeah, it does.
How do you know?

770
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:22,360
Because I'm going to check right
now and verify that I'm not I'm.

771
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:24,400
Curious.
That's where we bought my first

772
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:28,760
snowboard when I was a child.
Yeah, and good times out there.

773
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:31,920
Same thing with the Alpine ski
shop.

774
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:36,400
Alpine ski shop I think is the
funniest thing because that ski

775
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:40,760
shop is in Virginia in the
middle of an area where there

776
00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:42,960
aren't mountains.
For about where is it at 4

777
00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:46,120
hours?
That's near memes in Loudon

778
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,240
County.
The ski chalet.

779
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,520
Alpine or Fairfax Circle as
well.

780
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:52,960
They have two locations.
There, that's what I was looking

781
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:54,600
for.
That's Alpine ski shop.

782
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:59,920
That's not ski chalet I got, I
got that.

783
00:38:59,920 --> 00:39:03,080
Ain't no ski chalet.
Luxury ski chalet.

784
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:06,880
Is it in the the office park?
The weird office park still.

785
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:09,520
No, I can't find it.
Maybe it's gone.

786
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,720
Wait, wait a minute.
I remember we went there for a

787
00:39:12,720 --> 00:39:14,480
closing sale.
Where was it?

788
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:15,840
We did.
Go there for a closing sale

789
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:20,800
about 8 years ago.
Ski chalet in where?

790
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:22,640
It's like Dulles Office Park or
something.

791
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:25,640
It's like somewhere I.
Put Fairfax County.

792
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:28,360
Try fair.
It's in Fairfax County, but it's

793
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:32,080
somewhere in.
They just say Alpine ski shop.

794
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:36,280
Then they give a bunch of ski
resorts ski resorts.

795
00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:39,160
I don't care.
Ski Chalet on Columbia Pike

796
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:40,800
closed.
There we go.

797
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:42,720
Permanently closed or
temporarily closed or what?

798
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:55,640
It's when did it close More
cozy, established, nestled on

799
00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:59,560
this business, you might think
doesn't say it just says closed.

800
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,080
This is permanently closed.
Oh, yeah, 1 bankrupt.

801
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:06,760
Yeah, because I went there.
We went there for a closing

802
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:08,600
sale, if I remember correctly,
about 8.

803
00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:11,960
Years ago, where's the one that
you did the internship with?

804
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,720
Was that ski shop Alpine?
Ski shop, whatever it was.

805
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:18,160
Perfect circle.
Yeah, I remember that.

806
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:22,040
Yeah, on the other side of the
Arthur's or whatever that.

807
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,920
I thought that was a really good
thing to do in high school.

808
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:31,720
I thought the idea that they
took three weeks out of your

809
00:40:31,720 --> 00:40:35,720
year and had students find jobs
from six.

810
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:38,960
From 6th grade on, you had to
find a job every year and you

811
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:42,360
worked there for three weeks,
whether it was an internship,

812
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:44,680
doing something.
I mean, you could do nothing.

813
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:48,120
You could be lazy and you can
pick some silly thing and work

814
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,360
for your dad as a underwear
cleaner, I don't know.

815
00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:54,040
That's kind of what I did.
But no, no, you actually made

816
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:57,160
the calls.
You went in, you went to McLean

817
00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,640
Hardware, you, you worked at a
hardware store, you worked at,

818
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:01,600
you worked at lots of different
establishments.

819
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,960
It was for nothing.
You were not paid, but you got

820
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,920
the idea on how to work and how
to interact with people that

821
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,920
we're running a business and
some would take you under the

822
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:14,400
wing even nicer to you and
others were like a piece of

823
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:17,040
shit, you know, But it was like,
it was really, really good and

824
00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:18,960
it.
Was I thought it was stupid only

825
00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:23,560
because when you're 15 I already
had a job and I was like, you

826
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:25,840
had a job.
Why do I have to do this stupid?

827
00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:28,920
Thing drugs is not a job that's.
Well, I sold drugs, but at the

828
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:32,080
same time I also was working in
McLean hardware.

829
00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:33,440
I was doing that when I oh, I
didn't.

830
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,520
Think you had a job in McLean
hardware until you were 16?

831
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:37,520
No, it was like 15 or 16 I
think.

832
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:38,960
I think it.
Started on it can't be you can't

833
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:42,600
you can't you're fear you can't
get a job until you're the the.

834
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:44,440
Only reason you can get a job
when you're 15 1/2.

835
00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:46,240
That's true.
You get your driver's license,

836
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:50,920
run then, but at the same time.
Yeah, but you were driving,

837
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:55,920
driving to McLane Hardware.
Stupid because I already had a

838
00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,200
job and I'm like, this is dumb.
Like you should.

839
00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:01,480
If anything I should get paid
for an internship if I'm 16

840
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:02,320
years old.
That's really.

841
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,240
Oh yeah, absolutely.
That's so dumb.

842
00:42:04,240 --> 00:42:05,200
See, we had.
We had.

843
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,240
The same time who wants to pay
somebody for three weeks of work

844
00:42:08,240 --> 00:42:09,480
that doesn't make any sense.
Painful.

845
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:11,840
That's really stupid.
We had, we had a lot.

846
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:14,640
Attract my statement.
A lot of college interns come

847
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:18,920
and work for us for 369 months.
Well, that's months, though.

848
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:20,720
That's not weeks.
Yeah, three weeks is a

849
00:42:20,720 --> 00:42:22,000
nightmare.
You don't want to pay something

850
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:23,160
for the three weeks.
And what is it?

851
00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:24,160
What are you going to make
anyway?

852
00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:28,040
Like 200 bucks if that.
Yeah, well, we were technically

853
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:30,040
we didn't have to pay them
minimum wage, but we did.

854
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,440
We gave them a stipend, you
know, we didn't.

855
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:34,560
So we didn't have a write a
check, but we give them, you

856
00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:37,200
know, a couple 100 bucks a week,
you know, and it was just like,

857
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:39,720
we're probably violating some
law.

858
00:42:39,720 --> 00:42:43,400
I'm sure, you know, all the laws
because bigger companies, they

859
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,320
have to be go by the book and
they can't do this.

860
00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:48,360
And they got to do that and they
got to pay you this.

861
00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:51,480
And, you know, and I remember I,
oh, I was in a case.

862
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:55,440
It was really, really funny.
And I can bring it up now

863
00:42:55,440 --> 00:43:02,360
because it's probably over with.
But when I was in the company, I

864
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:07,080
the, the, the last company I was
involved in, the one, the small

865
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:11,240
company we had, they had interns
and they hired all these, The

866
00:43:11,240 --> 00:43:16,680
guy hired all these interns from
like Columbia, NYU, Harvard.

867
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:19,400
It's another school that's up
there.

868
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:21,600
It's really good, MIT.
Columbia.

869
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:25,080
And they were, they were, they
were actually doing, they were

870
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:29,040
cutting up contracts and they
were making them searchable,

871
00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:32,200
like hundreds of thousands of
them.

872
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:34,880
He had thirty of these people
working for him for a summer,

873
00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:39,200
right?
And he had them sign documents

874
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:42,360
that were kind of nefarious that
said it was an unpaid internship

875
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:44,400
and blah, blah, blah, blah,
blah, blah, blah, blah.

876
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:49,600
Well, they all come back and,
and they, no, they got paid

877
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:53,920
money, but they got paid 1099
money and they were like, and

878
00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:57,520
1099 means that you're liable
for your own Social Security and

879
00:43:57,520 --> 00:43:59,200
you're liable for your own
stuff.

880
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,040
So they come back after he's
been fired.

881
00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:07,800
They come back and they're like,
we want to, we want to get we

882
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,840
won't, we're we're going to sue
you because under New York law

883
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:17,000
that an intern, we were
employees, not subcontractors,

884
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:18,600
because you controlled what we
did.

885
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:20,000
You control what we searched and
everything.

886
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,480
And I was and I was at the tail
end of this and I came in and I

887
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:26,080
listen to this, right?
Like these are all people that

888
00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:30,000
are in the best law schools in
the country, you know, and

889
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:33,320
they're at the top of their
class and they had a mouthpiece

890
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:36,640
and there's, there's probably, I
think there's like ten of them,

891
00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:38,400
nine of them, eight of them,
something like that.

892
00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:41,160
And it came to us and they were
like, you, you need to pay us

893
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,440
like 5 grand a piece.
It was like, it was like a bribe

894
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,640
really, you know, to pay us for,
so we can cover our Social

895
00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,920
Security and we can cover all
this stuff, blah, blah, blah.

896
00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:51,400
And so, and I was like
listening.

897
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,280
And then so I grabbed our
counsel, which cost a couple

898
00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:59,640
grand just to talk to him, you
know, and they were, they were a

899
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:04,600
top 25 law firm.
And, and then I got this idea

900
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:08,120
and and it worked really, really
well because I had AI had a

901
00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:09,800
conference call with him without
any attorneys.

902
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:14,040
And I talked to him and I said,
well, yeah, we understand that

903
00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:16,080
you believe that you were
employees of the company and

904
00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:17,640
that we should pay you this
money.

905
00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:20,640
And we won't agree that you were
employees, but we'll agree that

906
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:23,000
we're going to give you some
additional stipend.

907
00:45:23,720 --> 00:45:25,480
And I said, but you got to know
one thing.

908
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:30,320
Every single one of you was in
your last year of law school and

909
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:35,760
you're going to go to work for
law firms that are our customers

910
00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:40,320
that love us.
And one of those law firms now

911
00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:44,720
knows every single one of your
names and you won't be hired.

912
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:54,920
And they just like, and I said,
and we are an 85 of the top 100

913
00:45:54,920 --> 00:46:00,400
law firms.
So it might get out that, that

914
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,320
if you ask for a reference from
us, because they're going to ask

915
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:06,480
you where you interned.
And if they come to us, I'm

916
00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:09,320
going to tell them what you did.
They just freaked out.

917
00:46:10,240 --> 00:46:12,640
They folded, they folded.
We didn't pay anything.

918
00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:15,320
It was all gone.
It was just like, it was like,

919
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:20,120
you know, but I mean.
Well.

920
00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:25,560
Yeah, it was, it was, it was a
hard thing to do, but it was, it

921
00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:27,240
was fair.
They knew what they were doing.

922
00:46:27,240 --> 00:46:30,320
They knew there were 1099
employees and then they just

923
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:32,760
wanted and they saw that he had
been fired.

924
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:35,040
The guy that hired him and he he
was kind of nefarious because he

925
00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:38,040
had him sign documents where he
just, he had a signature page

926
00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:42,360
and he said sign this and then
he attached it to the contract

927
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:46,720
after work.
But you know, you need a job,

928
00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:50,520
right?
Think about that.

929
00:46:51,240 --> 00:46:53,920
That's how that's what that
that's what employers do.

930
00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:58,880
They're just anything.
I don't know how that got from,

931
00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:01,200
you know, I don't know what that
has to do with DoorDash.

932
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:02,840
Well, you know, we do.
We love the DoorDash.

933
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:04,640
But I think on that note, what
do we have here for?

934
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:06,680
About, I think we got to talk
about a little more DoorDash.

935
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:12,400
OK, how many times have you
ordered from DoorDash or when?

936
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:16,280
Like the entirety of my life.
Yeah, no, just like when's the

937
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:17,760
last time you ordered?
What'd you order?

938
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,120
Oh gosh, you remember?
Maybe Papa John's?

939
00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:24,920
Because Papa John's no longer
participates in regular delivery

940
00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:28,160
drivers, they ship it out.
So yeah.

941
00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:29,800
Oh my God, they do.
Everything.

942
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,040
I don't know if it's in every
location, but the one location

943
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:35,840
near me at least.
So, so DoorDash is expanding its

944
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:39,080
business by being the delivery
service for all the restaurants

945
00:47:39,080 --> 00:47:42,160
that were delivery and then they
don't have to deal with them.

946
00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:44,120
I mean, that's actually a pretty
smart move.

947
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:45,800
That was Uber easy though.
This wasn't DoorDash.

948
00:47:46,240 --> 00:47:49,400
You know, but that was about.
Last year, maybe like a year

949
00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:51,280
ago, yeah.
I got pizza.

950
00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:53,600
Wow.
Yeah.

951
00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:58,520
I don't, I, I, I don't know.
I've not, I will order directly

952
00:47:58,520 --> 00:47:59,840
from the restaurant or I'll go
pick it up.

953
00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:04,240
And I mean, I'm, I'm like, by
the time I, I, I feel that I

954
00:48:04,240 --> 00:48:07,120
want to go there.
I'm, I'm just, I'm old

955
00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:10,400
fashioned, I guess.
And me sitting at home doom

956
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:13,920
scrolling or looking at some
stupid Stevie or whatever is not

957
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:15,800
more important.
If I was in a rush or something,

958
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:19,520
I would, I could see it if I had
the, the issues with time.

959
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:23,360
And I think that's what it is.
If you if you have, if you have,

960
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:27,960
what is it?
Money and no time, DoorDash is

961
00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:31,440
wonderful.
If you have no money, you got to

962
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:34,680
make time to get it yourself.
You know, that's kind of the

963
00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:38,040
thing when you think about the
prospect, but the the whole idea

964
00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:40,480
of them being delivery services
for any and all restaurants.

965
00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:44,040
It's just that was that was a
really, really good idea.

966
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:48,640
Yes, indeed, Apple is on it.
Yes.

967
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:51,240
So what's the worst food?
I mean, I can't imagine you

968
00:48:51,240 --> 00:48:55,000
could order a salad but.
I mean, I don't even know what

969
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:56,640
I, like, ordered that was bad.
I don't think.

970
00:48:57,040 --> 00:48:59,080
I can't remember.
I mean, like, all pizzas, just

971
00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:01,760
like the underneath.
It's like, just wet.

972
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:03,760
Yeah.
Because it's not crunchy.

973
00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:04,720
You have to put it back in the
oven.

974
00:49:04,720 --> 00:49:06,200
And if, like, you're going to
put it back in the oven, you

975
00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:08,000
might as well just eat at the
restaurant, right?

976
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:10,920
That makes no sense.
Reheating food that you got

977
00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:13,520
delivered is ridiculous to me.
And that concept is crazy.

978
00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:16,320
It's a stupid concept, yeah.
When that's why I go to the

979
00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:18,600
Pete's restaurants here.
What was the one Rocco's.

980
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:21,040
That was the last one.
I really like that, except for

981
00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:23,400
the really the sauce.
Just kind of like.

982
00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:26,520
Hurt me.
I've never eaten the pizza

983
00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:27,920
there.
Yeah, you did.

984
00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:30,720
Wow.
The deep dish, The deep dish

985
00:49:30,720 --> 00:49:33,120
pizza when you came home.
Oh, that sucked.

986
00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:35,160
Yeah.
See, that was like a 2 out of

987
00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:37,280
10.
I thought you got that from, You

988
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:39,920
said you got that from the other
place, the tomatoes.

989
00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:41,960
I went from one to the other to
the other.

990
00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:45,600
They were, it's Friday night and
the clean and it's like empty

991
00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:47,560
and I'm like, where is everybody
and all the restaurants are

992
00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:51,040
closed And I'm like you did.
Go like 930, right?

993
00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:55,000
8:30 I went to 8. 30 I was.
Like yeah, it was like it was

994
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:57,240
almost 9 and I pulled up to the
first one.

995
00:49:57,240 --> 00:49:58,880
What was the one I went to for?
The clean is.

996
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:02,920
Geezer Town and and and there's
nobody.

997
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:04,880
And then at one it's like our
pizza ovens off.

998
00:50:06,240 --> 00:50:08,520
And then I went, I went to
another one and they were

999
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:10,000
closed.
Then I went to another one,

1000
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:14,160
Santini's, and they were
cleaning the floors and I just

1001
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:16,440
felt bad going in.
If you're cleaning the floors

1002
00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:17,920
and ordering something because
it's like.

1003
00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:19,760
Yeah, it's terrible.
You know, I didn't even waste my

1004
00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:21,320
time there.
Then I went over to Rocco's

1005
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:22,720
because I was like, that was
the.

1006
00:50:22,720 --> 00:50:24,920
Worst pizza I've ever had,
really.

1007
00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:26,960
Hands down the worst pizza I've
ever eaten.

1008
00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:29,920
That was terrible.
Yeah, that was really bad.

1009
00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:31,840
You know he should have washed
his hands.

1010
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:34,520
I wish he didn't because then it
maybe would have had a flavor.

1011
00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:37,160
But yeah, no, that was God
awful.

1012
00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:38,440
I.
Liked it?

1013
00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:40,440
I hated it.
I thought that that.

1014
00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:42,000
Was I liked it, but the first.
Piece I've ever eaten.

1015
00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:44,160
The the the bottom was really
crunchy.

1016
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:46,240
It reminded me a lot of
Giordano's.

1017
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:49,560
What is Giordano's?
Those big fat frozen pieces I

1018
00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:51,320
used to get in the mail?
That was.

1019
00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:52,880
Those weren't even that good
either.

1020
00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:54,360
Yeah, they saw it.
Yeah.

1021
00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:56,360
See, There you go.
I reminded you of a shitty.

1022
00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:59,640
Pizza.
It's a frozen deep dish pizza

1023
00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:02,320
and then you throw it in, you
cook it and it's like it's OK.

1024
00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:04,560
That's what they tried to do
during the pandemic as well, was

1025
00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:06,680
survive.
And yeah, a lot of people,

1026
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:09,520
everybody went to that.
Well, there was a, there's a app

1027
00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:13,600
or a website called the Gold
Coast or Gold something or

1028
00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:15,560
other.
And you go there and it's got

1029
00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:18,600
every restaurant in the country
that's like got a big name.

1030
00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:24,760
Like, you know, you can order
Coney Island hot dogs, you can

1031
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:27,640
order, you can order anything
you want, you know, and and they

1032
00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:31,000
they get the name.
Like you can order steak and

1033
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:37,600
cheese from Who are the two
idiots and Gino's and oh.

1034
00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:39,160
You can do that, really.
Yeah.

1035
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:40,960
Yeah, you can order.
But you don't get a steak and

1036
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:42,200
cheese.
You actually get the steak that

1037
00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:44,200
they used to cook.
You get the I was rather sponge.

1038
00:51:44,240 --> 00:51:46,320
You get it's all put together
and it comes to you in a pack

1039
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:49,080
and you can make it at home so
you get the same stuff.

1040
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,800
That's so.
I'll make my own for 1/3 of the

1041
00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:55,480
price, yeah.
Oh, not even a third, probably.

1042
00:51:55,680 --> 00:51:58,680
10 percent, 110th of the price.
Yeah, 'cause whatever they

1043
00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:01,520
charge, then they it's like
people.

1044
00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:05,560
Say they hate steak UMS And you
know what?

1045
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:08,600
I like steak UMS oh, I will die
on that hill.

1046
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:11,360
I like steak UMS Somebody was
telling me like, that's the

1047
00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:14,520
worst.
And I'm like, how dare you I?

1048
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:21,960
Think that compared to what?
What, compared to a like a $40

1049
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:23,640
rib eye?
Of course it's going to be bad.

1050
00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:25,720
Yeah, yeah.
But at the same time, I will

1051
00:52:25,720 --> 00:52:29,560
say, I will say that Steakums,
we're calling you out.

1052
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:36,240
You charge like 1295 for like 1
package now, and I find that to

1053
00:52:36,240 --> 00:52:38,120
be atrocious.
That's crazy.

1054
00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:41,560
And we hate you for it.
How much is in a pack?

1055
00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:45,560
So they're double sided, right?
So it's like.

1056
00:52:46,240 --> 00:52:49,000
Yeah, Steaks has two sides when
we go with. 10 I don't know, I

1057
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:50,600
feel like it's 10.
OK.

1058
00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:54,080
I mean, I was going to say 10,
but it it doesn't matter how

1059
00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:55,520
many steaks, how much does it
weigh?

1060
00:52:55,520 --> 00:52:57,080
Is it about 6 ounces to 8
ounces?

1061
00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:00,120
Well, let's look it up here.
You know, 'cause that's what,

1062
00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:03,200
when you think about it, is how
much is it per oz Let.

1063
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:10,040
Me see here how many steakums in
a box?

1064
00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:23,720
Let's see here Money.
OK, apparently they don't exist

1065
00:53:23,720 --> 00:53:28,760
anymore, which just isn't true.
They have a nine ounce, 12 oz.

1066
00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:29,480
Fifty.
There we go.

1067
00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:31,720
A 21 oz.
And a 27 oz.

1068
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:36,920
The slices the very counts of
slice 6-8 to 14.

1069
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:42,000
Interesting the according to
Walmart price, right?

1070
00:53:42,240 --> 00:53:51,760
Let's see, 21 oz cost 875. 875 S
875 I was close so.

1071
00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:56,280
That's a little, a little more
than what is that?

1072
00:53:56,960 --> 00:54:00,760
650 a pound, 750 a pound?
Yeah.

1073
00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:04,640
This is not really crazy.
I mean, Hamburger's 6650 a pound

1074
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:06,760
now.
I need to get a new chair.

1075
00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:09,600
This chair hurts.
Hurts my cheeks.

1076
00:54:10,240 --> 00:54:13,120
Well, I think that you know, if
you delivered a few more pizzas

1077
00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:15,440
on your DoorDash job, you would,
you would not have to worry

1078
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:17,920
about that.
I think you're 100% tips, you

1079
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:20,800
get your deliveries.
You get a whole $2.30 tip.

1080
00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:24,280
Yeah, when you grew, I was a
delivery.

1081
00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:27,160
Driver, what was your, what was
your, what was your favorite?

1082
00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:31,880
Your favorite delivery?
Smoking pot the whole time I was

1083
00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:34,840
there.
And at that point I developed a

1084
00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:40,360
really harsh marijuana cough.
And I remember taking AGB out of

1085
00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:45,040
a Co worker's car and coughing
in the kitchen and my manager

1086
00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:47,280
said do not come back in here
until you're done coughing.

1087
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:49,600
And then I think I went home.
I think that that was my

1088
00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:53,040
favorite.
Time I thought you were building

1089
00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:56,520
like a delivery and I was like.
Nope, Nope, no, no, I didn't go

1090
00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:57,120
home.
I'm kidding.

1091
00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:03,560
But favorite delivery, I think
the school orders were great.

1092
00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:06,760
I mean like it would be like a
$400.00 order and they, I think

1093
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:09,560
almost the teachers didn't care
because they got the money

1094
00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:11,720
through the school to tip you
with the school orders.

1095
00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:16,440
So I'd get tipped like 60-70
bucks in a day, which was great.

1096
00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:19,440
Like that was off 1 order too.
So probably one of those.

1097
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:23,800
Capital One was generous too.
Capital what?

1098
00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:25,960
Yeah, I don't remember.
There was one.

1099
00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:27,280
I remember I went to this office
park.

1100
00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:30,640
They ordered 45 pizzas.
I had to go down to the car four

1101
00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:33,280
times.
And then I said, so are you guys

1102
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:36,840
going to tip me?
I held it up and I'm like, Oh

1103
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:38,400
yeah, could you just fill this?
I didn't say are you going to

1104
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:39,040
tip me?
Of course not.

1105
00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:42,040
But I like, hand it to them,
like you filled this out and I

1106
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:45,440
was like, I need a signature.
And then they did not tip me on

1107
00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:50,000
a $600.00 order.
And and then at that point, I

1108
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:51,840
almost just took one of the
pizzas and left.

1109
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:53,160
I was.
Convinced.

1110
00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:55,600
Yep.
Oh, no, You know what?

1111
00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:56,680
I oh, well, I'm not going to say
that.

1112
00:55:56,680 --> 00:55:58,280
What I actually did.
No, I'm not going to say that.

1113
00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:02,000
You committed a crime, pretty
much OK.

1114
00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:03,640
I think it's beyond the statue
of limitations.

1115
00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:05,560
I don't know, Yeah.
But if you think about it, it's

1116
00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:09,480
it that's the kind of thing that
if, if you wrong people, yeah,

1117
00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:14,040
at at the, at the low end of the
economic scale, there's nothing

1118
00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:18,760
they can do except to physically
assault you, do something wrong

1119
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:22,840
to your food, do something wrong
to your person establishment or

1120
00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:25,000
something.
So you're you're really just

1121
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:26,560
opening yourself up for that.
And I thought, I don't

1122
00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:31,720
understand why people I don't, I
don't get why I would punish a

1123
00:56:31,720 --> 00:56:36,680
person that was serving me food
if the food was bad.

1124
00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:39,960
It isn't the server's fault.
No, no.

1125
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:43,560
Well, at the same time, I
remember when I had like, I

1126
00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:49,680
stopped working there and what I
did is I had the, the workers

1127
00:56:49,680 --> 00:56:52,520
there, right?
The, the guys and I said, just

1128
00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:55,120
send me the phone numbers, the
people that don't tip on huge

1129
00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:57,200
orders.
And they said OK, And they gave

1130
00:56:57,200 --> 00:56:59,400
me like 20 phone numbers.
And I just call them.

1131
00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:01,400
And I'd call them and be like, I
hear you're not tipping.

1132
00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:04,120
They they'd be like what?
They're like, I hear you're not

1133
00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:05,480
tipping.
You should start tipping.

1134
00:57:05,480 --> 00:57:09,600
And then I hang up.
Hold it.

1135
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:11,840
You did this on your cell phone?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1136
00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:13,760
You know, that's caller ID.
OK.

1137
00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:15,880
What now?
You do *67, it goes away.

1138
00:57:16,360 --> 00:57:18,760
Unidentified caller.
Oh yeah.

1139
00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:21,040
I forgot about that.
Yep, you can do that.

1140
00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:23,400
Well, we're you did that to
about. 20 people.

1141
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:24,440
Oh, we used to do that all the
time.

1142
00:57:24,440 --> 00:57:26,880
It was so much fun.
I still think the funniest thing

1143
00:57:26,880 --> 00:57:29,480
is is when I tipped the guy that
came here from Papa John's.

1144
00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:30,760
Timmy.
Good old Timmy.

1145
00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:34,720
Oh my God.
And he put it on Instagram.

1146
00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:36,800
Oh, Snapchat.
He sent it to me, Yeah.

1147
00:57:37,040 --> 00:57:39,760
He sent it to you, but all
people sent it to you say, yeah,

1148
00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:43,440
I got I finally got a good tip
out of McClain and you're like,

1149
00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:46,480
where'd you go?
Yeah.

1150
00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:47,760
Did he show?
Was it a picture of it?

1151
00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:49,120
Yeah, it was a picture of his
hand.

1152
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:50,200
Yeah.
Yeah, a picture of his hand.

1153
00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:51,520
I think it was like 20 bucks or
something.

1154
00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:52,600
Yeah, yeah.
I gave him 20.

1155
00:57:53,040 --> 00:57:54,920
Well, you come from Papa John's,
you know, and it's like you

1156
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:56,680
worked there.
So I got to, I came in.

1157
00:57:57,080 --> 00:57:59,160
That's fine.
And he, yeah, that's what I

1158
00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:01,120
thought.
And he was like, Are you sure?

1159
00:58:01,560 --> 00:58:03,400
Are you sure you want some
change?

1160
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:04,480
You sure you don't want some
change?

1161
00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:06,800
I mean, I'm like.
God, well, you're used to like a

1162
00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:10,280
$630 order, like it's like 630
fifty, right?

1163
00:58:10,520 --> 00:58:12,440
Yeah.
And then the they round up the

1164
00:58:12,440 --> 00:58:15,520
$0.50 to make it like 631 or
something.

1165
00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:17,480
And they typically because.
It's easier to write that

1166
00:58:17,480 --> 00:58:18,000
that's.
Why?

1167
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:19,720
Yeah, exactly.
That's the only reason you round

1168
00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:20,600
up.
Then you don't have to get your

1169
00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:24,680
calculator out, right?
Yeah, but yeah, because a lot of

1170
00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:27,600
people getting too simple I
guess, but.

1171
00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:30,680
Being on the that's, that's a
hard thing to do.

1172
00:58:30,920 --> 00:58:32,360
Not really.
Hard thing to be there.

1173
00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:33,960
Or.
Stay there.

1174
00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:37,000
Well, there.
There are tactics to maneuver

1175
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:40,280
around, definitely maneuverable
tactics that I will teach you in

1176
00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:43,600
the next episode here.
But are we good?

1177
00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:45,720
How to do?
Like an hour.

1178
00:58:45,720 --> 00:58:47,960
How to do?
Is that fraud or is that?

1179
00:58:48,280 --> 00:58:51,040
Yeah, it's fraud.
Criminal theft or something like

1180
00:58:51,040 --> 00:58:52,160
that.
I Well, are we?

1181
00:58:52,160 --> 00:58:54,320
Wrapping up, what are we doing?
Yeah, yeah, we're good.

1182
00:58:54,360 --> 00:58:55,760
