0:00 RCD, you guys know that servers in Vegas are telling reporters now that they're making about half of what they made two years ago when it comes to tips. >> Oh, so same amount of customers, less tips. >> Yeah. So, conceptually, I guess, quietly people are all changing the way that they tip. >> I was going to say if it's servers, then I didn't change. The people I say, "F███ you and your whole family." is when they when they don't do jack ████ and they turn the iPad around. I'm like, "Zero, ████ What the hell? You literally passed the drink to me. ████ you and your whole family." But, servers I still tip, for sure. Like if if there's actual service, I'll tip. >> To be honest, I'm kind of the same. I don't go like, "F███ you and your whole family." I think I just quietly do it. However, the one the one thing that they'll always have is with the second they're like, "Oh." and they show that they're JK fan or something, ████
0:50 automatic 20% tip. >> Automatic, yeah. JK fan, automatic. >> want to avoid the ████ talk as well. I saw this guy and he tipped me ████ You know, they would could do a Tik Tok about how >> Yeah, for sure. >> terrible tip you are. >> Yeah. >> Like dude, automatic 20. You They just should just know that. They should just use that on us. Any actual JK fan out there should just know. They're serving us, they just be like, "Yo, JK fan." >> Sparrow and Wolf was like that. You know, the place in Chinatown, Sparrow and Wolf. >> Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. >> Right. What was it What were they like? >> The host was like a JK fan. And they sent all this food to the table and that place is expensive. >> Wow. >> Yeah, I was really appreciative of that. >> That's what I'm saying, though. That's like a auto 20% tip, minimum. >> Maybe even more, yeah. >> Yeah, 25% or something. >> So, when you order food to go, you never tip on the iPad? >> I don't anymore. Not anymore. >> I still tip. >> I do, too. I thought you had to. >> I do. I >> You guys are honorable people.
1:41 >> Dude, okay. I'm going to be honest with you guys. I I just I have different percentages on things. >> What's your What's your breakdown? What's your breakdown? >> For example, like if you're a like a Postmate and there's already delivery fee and this and that, I don't normally go on suggested tip like cuz I'm To me, I'm like, "Another like 15%?" those are bad suggestions. Yeah. >> [laughter] >> That starts at 21%. >> Yeah, I'm like that's so extra, right? So I'm like honestly I'll go relative to like if the bill is like 40 bucks, I'mma put like four bucks in tip. >> Do you put more tip if it's raining? >> Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But the thing will say it. That's just That's just showing ████ actual raindrops on the app. It's like hey, maybe consider tipping a little more cuz it sucks today, you know? >> Or if it's like really late at night. >> Plus everybody seems to be driving only a bicycle that night. Like what the ████ >> yeah, yeah. >> Huh? Suddenly suddenly everyone that approaches me is only riding a bike on rainy days. >> That's happened to me before.
2:31 >> That's what they show you on the ████ like the I swear to god it's like it's it's a it's a bike that's going uphill slowly to my neighborhood and then suddenly when he gets to my door after I've done the tip it turns into a vehicle. >> Once they finish that freeway next to your house, are you going to tip less cuz now it's way easier to get to my house? >> It's going to be two years, bro. It's going to take two years. Yeah, it's never it's never going to >> It's a two-plus year project. >> Cuz I do gauge based off the conditions. Like if it's like a >> a place that's like two um two blocks away, >> Yeah. >> I'm like I'm not going to base off the ████ suggestion. But if it's like some random place out in like Chinatown and I know it's like oh ████ it is kind of rush hour then I'll just pay him more. I'm like this guy is making like a trek all the way out here. >> So you actually like when they switch the iPad around in some places, you actually hit the zero in front of them? >> I stick my middle finger out first and [laughter] then I go 0%. And I sign.
3:22 >> Yeah, zero immediately. Immediately. >> Did you maintain eye contact throughout the whole >> Honestly, I'm a sucker, dude. For the longest time during COVID >> Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. >> For the longest time during COVID, I was like man, these poor businesses. I did feel bad, right? So it was like 20% across the board whether dining in, not dining in, and then I think as we got out of the whole COVID situation, then I started thinking like and I started like being more scrutinizing with my finances and and >> Uh-huh. >> And I was like "Damn, does this interaction need to be like $20 or should I just been like the 12, 15 that it's supposed to cuz there's you already got to have tax and all this other stuff?" And then as it starts adding up and I have a kid, I'm just looking at everything. Now it's a family of three every single time, right? So, I'm like, "If we go out and get boba, do I need to spend 50 bucks? Like, what the f███?" So, now I'm just like
4:14 0%. >> [laughter] >> THERE'S ONLY ONE BUTTON. >> IT'S actually because it's like they tipping culture did get really overzealous through the years. Like it became pretty manipulative. Like when you look at the screens now, but then it's it's like you can't really penalize the server for that. >> infrastructure >> You know what I mean? >> And because I'm buying three things, the percentage is on the three things. So, it's like so much you know like 15% on like two plates is different than 50%. Like let's say if it's a $20 a plate, that's 40 bucks versus 15% on 60 bucks. So, now I just as my kid got older and everything I'm like, "What the ████ If I'm just going to grab things and go like zero." >> you know that there's places now that if you don't tip it recalculates the price of the bill? >> I saw that, yeah. >> What? >> Yeah. >> I think it's like McDonald's or
5:04 something. >> Yeah, it did it to on the kiosk thing. >> Yeah. >> Wait, you can tip at McDonald's? >> [laughter] >> I don't know if it was McDonald's. It was like a kiosk or something. >> Something that had like an electronic kiosk and when >> Like the burger now is more expensive. >> Yeah, it adjusted the price >> of >> Yeah, the price >> It adjusts when you like change your tip feature. >> And then they said it was a glitch. But of course the glitch is never in your favor. >> You're the glitch. >> I think I I think I think I would just leave, dude. I'd be like, "That's crazy." >> Yeah, that's nuts. >> There's even some places like I think it's Fun Beyond. Fun Beyond, you know this is you. And I still go there cuz why? It's convenient. >> He likes it. >> Convenient and all fuzz great everywhere, that's why. >> One on Hualapai? >> Yes, on Hualapai, right? So, that's the that's the first place and still consistently they gave you the receipt thing and the the lowest is 25%. >> Dang, the lowest? >> Yeah, that's true. >> You got to respect the ask, though.
5:55 >> Part of me respects it. >> But you know it's popping. People still eat there. So for me, when I see the the >> Nobody wants to do math. They just check it off. >> You're confident You're confident to just start at 25%. I'm confident to go other. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like that's just where I'm at. Other >> I used to always want to rush when they give me the the tip and I go I just like tap it and >> get it away. Yeah. But now, if I'm at a place where I get boba and it's like based on the percentages, I'll wait and I'll take my time. And this is an exercise for myself where I'll I'll hit the other and I'll really think about the time. I'll really think about the tip and I go, "Okay, this is the number I'm going to pick." And then I turn it back. And it's really awkward. And it makes me feel weird, but I do it anyway. >> But you do really take that time and consider the whole interaction? >> Yeah, I go, "You know what?" Because I'd always rush and be like, "Ah, ████ it. Let's just >> Yeah, yeah, yeah.
6:46 >> But now, as an exercise for myself to like stare them in the face, I kind of take my time a little bit. But then sometimes I coward out and I just hit it and I just want to >> think it's only a matter of time before they have a like a sound bite when you pick the zero. >> Yeah. >> I bet you eventually >> Cheap ass right here. >> You've chosen zero. >> Yeah. >> Yeah, just to like alert everyone around you. >> A bunch of foam red arrows fall down. >> Or you know what you know what you know what these >> shops should do now? They should hire people in line. They stand behind you and as soon as you hit the button they go, "Wow, really?" >> [laughter] >> You hit zero percent they go, "Wow." >> Every other customer in line. >> The judgment person. >> They hire a roast comedian to stand behind you. >> In [laughter] >> stands A little kid who stands there just watching everybody. >> Yeah. You're like, "Bro, you're wearing a Rolex. Five bucks? You can't tip five
7:36 bucks?" >> Why are you eating out at all? >> [laughter] >> Looks like you can't afford a pal. >> [laughter] >> You know what I felt guilty of though? >> What? >> How like sometimes Oh, I feel so guilty saying this. Sometimes my tip changes on like how my I'm personally doing. >> What do you mean like financially or >> wrong with that. >> I feel like that's justified though. >> Well, are you talking about emotions? >> No, no, no. No, like how you're actually just doing in life. >> Yeah, I feel like that's justified though. >> Justified. >> That isn't everybody though? >> Yeah, but you know like >> You got paid a little bit, you know, you got a little paycheck. >> That moment you don't have a conversation with the person, it's not like You know what I mean? You just walk away from that moment. >> So, here here's the context in which This is where I feel guilty. Like our my barber, you know what I'm talking about? >> Mhm. Mhm. >> We have the same barber out here, right? She's good job. It's great job. Everything's expensive, I'm not going to lie. It is what it is though. But it's also like this is this guy's like passion and career or whatever. Like this this is his thing. And we have
8:26 a relationship. I go I go to you, you're my guy out here, right? >> Hey, don't make me look bad by tipping Holy Ghost, dude. >> I go I Well, I'm about to be guilty about this. >> Okay, good. Good. Good. Good. >> So, I usually I usually do tip like like maybe like 20%, right? >> Okay, that's that's that's that's good. That's that's good, dude. >> He always That's why >> is too much actually. >> That man, dude, you know what you do? He shows a mirror, you feel all good about, cool. He cleans up. And then >> 20% of what? >> Of just of like 50 bucks, realistically, right? And then and then he does his He's real smooth. He turns He He turns the thing around and he looks away. He gives you space. He's mad cool, mad chill, right? >> Hawaiian, so he's extra chill. >> Mad chill. He's a cool guy. >> [laughter] >> But >> Oh. >> When he looking away though. >> Usually it's like 20%. You know, it's pretty easy. It's the middle button. You know, you're just kind of like I'm just doing what I feel like is just a righteous. Not the It's not the less. It's not the most. I'm just being honest with myself. This is where I'm at. And then I go and hit a golf ball into a
9:17 Porsche Macan windshield and spend $1,100 on something I don't ████ think I'm going to do, right? And I recently get this haircut, this is a couple days ago. The guy's like he's mad chill about it, turns around he's like >> You were still feeling the pain from the >> And I was like I hit 15%. I was like >> [laughter] >> 5%. >> But bro, that You know, I felt like I did I I cuz that's that's not that's more than a tip. >> Cuz it's going to feel like that's the new norm now. >> That's yeah, that's at least you didn't >> run out like a barber shop, you know, that one guy >> [laughter] >> that makes Ice Cube cut him up. He just books it out. That was the one thing I'm like, well, I didn't do that. >> [laughter] >> But you know what I mean? It's like you got you got kind of like a relationship with the dude. >> Yeah. Yeah, that's hard when it's personal. Like if you know the guy. >> I felt guilty I felt guilty but I you know, sometimes sometimes the tip is is
10:09 reflective of your actual life situation. You know what I'm saying? >> What if his life situation requires tip? >> Yeah, dude. >> I know. That's why I'm guilty, you ████ >> [laughter] >> What if his windshield got smashed? >> What if he's like, "Hey, sorry you hit a Porsche, but I'm still a barber." >> Yeah. >> This cuz the Hawaiian barber guy is Filipino, dude. Relax. >> My daughter's still hungry. >> [laughter] >> Can I ask you a question about tipping culture out here cuz this is something I was kind of confused on. So I know that before I moved here, I understood that Vegas is like tipping culture, right? >> capital of the world. >> Yeah. >> No doubt. >> And then in the beginning when we first started setting up our house, like I was tipping almost every like subcontractor vendor person. The blinds person comes in, I'm like, am I supposed to tip? >> Yeah. >> And then we would tip them. >> You pay resort fees. >> Yeah, or yeah. And then like someone else would come and and I'm like, >> Tip your HOA.
10:59 >> am I supposed to tip this person? But then eventually I'm like, what? >> Tip your HOA. >> [laughter] >> And then eventually I'm like, "Dude, what the ████ Like >> Yeah. >> how much am I going to keep this am I going to keep this on forever?" >> So you did tip the blinds guy? >> Getting blinds every day or what? Do you tip the blinds guy? So we tipped the movers, then we tipped the blinds >> And then you tipped the movers, yeah. >> And then so and then I was like, "Oh, I don't know." >> This is because Bart knows he's going to be moving forever. >> [laughter] >> I'm like, am I supposed to like like let's say electrician comes, are you supposed to tip them? Like like what's >> That's a good question. I Yeah, it's very arbitrary what you tip on what you don't, especially with service people. I didn't tip the blinds people. >> Okay. >> That's the first, dude. I've never heard that. >> [laughter] >> The movers for sure. >> I didn't know. I didn't know what was normal in Vegas. >> Yeah. The AT&T guy is trying to sell you. You're like, "Hey, here's a tip, dude." >> [laughter] >> You know what? I don't know I don't know
11:50 either, but I would definitely tip movers. >> What about the guy at Costco who's changing your tires? >> Free sample guy. Here you >> Do you tip your solar guy? >> I don't have solar. >> Or the oil The person changing your oil, do you? >> Oh, like at Valvoline? >> Now I went back to I'm not tipping nobody unless it's a known thing. >> Sure. >> So, barber I tip my barber. >> Well, I mean, you got to go back there anyway. >> Yeah, but then like just like regular people like I don't tip like those like, you know, like the people that just come off and do a a job anymore. >> I think I got to go back to my barber and just always go back between 15 and 20 so he never knows. >> Yeah. He's just like, you know? >> I think he didn't even notice, dude. >> Choose your own adventure. >> He made up an He >> Housekeepers, I think I still Yeah, we still tip. >> Oh, yeah. Do you tip your cleaning lady? >> No, not anymore cuz I was like I'm like, "If I'm going to keep her for like 10 years? Nah." >> [laughter] >> But in the beginning I did.
12:40 >> In the beginning I did. >> You did? >> I did. I did for like a >> Every cleaning? >> For like a whole year. >> Every cleaning? >> Did. Yeah, for like a whole year. >> Who's making me look bad now? >> Oh, sorry. But not anymore. So now I mean, my house is >> Has the quality changed? >> No. >> No, okay. >> She kills it. She just kills it. >> You tip your dentist, right? >> No. >> Got to tip your dentist, dude. >> I didn't I didn't know you >> What the hell? You guys tip your dentist? >> They make enough money. >> Your nurse, too? >> Geo's going to college. >> No, they'll do a bad job. >> [laughter] >> I I Should that be the rule? You don't You don't tip people who make more money [laughter] than you? >> Yeah, right. >> That's a good way to go. >> I'll be like, that should be the rule. >> Yeah. >> [laughter] >> What? >> It's like, "Hey, uh dentist, let me tip you." It's like, "Nah, bro. You make way more money than me." >> I mean, there's some servers that probably make more than all of us. >> Are you supposed to tip? Here's a good
13:30 question. Are you supposed to tip the concierge at a hotel for like helping you out? >> Yes. Absolutely. You You slip cash if they buy your tickets or get you a hard reservation. >> Oh. >> But not if they just conversationally give you advice? >> No. I don't think you have to do that. Not at all. I mean, there would be people at T T Village that would tip me not to ████ call them or bother them anymore. >> Oh, wow. >> Oh, yeah. Yeah, cuz they know. They know the deal. Don't ever call my room. Don't ever pitch me. >> How much is that to them? >> I would say between like 20 and 60. In cash. They'll just slip it up slip it to you. >> You should just say it's going to cost you 100. >> And I put in the notes, "Oh, they're not interested in timeshare." >> That's That's That seems pretty valuable. >> I would disconnect my phone as soon as if I stay in that timeshare. Yeah, every time. >> Two questions. Do you tip at Pan Express? >> Dude, first of all, I only go to Pan Express in two two ways. Number one is
14:21 at the LAX airport for some reason. The international Tom Bradley one. And then number two is on the app when the Dodgers win. Because that's when it's really really cheap out here. >> Okay. Do you tip at lap dances? >> Yes, he does. >> Every time. What do you You don't? >> You have to. >> More than the amount that was required? >> Depends on what you want. >> Like if she says 60 bucks and you pay 60. >> tip, she's not going to tip. You know what I mean? >> [laughter] >> No, what do you mean? I don't I don't know what you mean. >> I think at adult entertainments, you got to tip them every time. >> Above above what they tell you, right? >> Yeah, 100%. >> Yeah, that's good. I thought I thought I could I could >> How much are you supposed to tip on a lap dance if it's $60? >> What do you do? 20%? >> I think. >> I haven't been since a long time ago.
