0:00 you don't tip the TSA guy that Pats you down do you tip TSA Pre you don't know that you're supposed to leave a dollar bill in your pocket when they pat you down you're back pocket and then when they they go what is this you tomor a little something for you I'm going to do it [Music] tomorrow so how do you guys deal with guilt tipping guil what's guilt tipping I don't do it I used to give in I used to give in but now I don't give in anymore what's guilt tipping so tipping is the new thing where like um I guess like during the uh pandemic tipping took a big ass rise because electronic devices at most places now included tip as an option yeah and it was just one click you know the little turn around of the IP I hate when they go oh it's going
0:51 to ask you a question I know just say like how much do I want a tip and I'll tell you but don't pretend like you don't know what the question I mean that's that's the protocol I guess yeah so it's got we both know that but and they call it guilt tipping because it's it's like it's that situation where they're just standing there while you click which thing you want I like when they do this where they look at you and they go yeah and I go perfect now I'll put zero or they hand you the thing and they turn this way but then they they do they do admit that like things have gotten kind of out of hand where like a lot of because it's so easy to program these into devices Square the company that like does all these things software and the hardware it's just in it so like if you are using this even if it's a thing that doesn't normally require gratuiti at all the options always there what is guilt tipping though is it because like
1:41 you feel like you have to tip when it's like yeah like you're at a gas station and you're just buying a chocolate bar normally like tipping normally didn't include a person watching you do it yeah oh you walk away and come back to yeah now it's like there's some form of like oh if I do this or I don't do this they're going to know immediately and the service hasn't completed itself normally if you're at a restaurant you're done you're good to go but then here they're they're going to make your drink after they know what you tip sometimes oh right that is weird when the tip comes first that's weird exactly so it's a little strange but but tip was an acronym it was to ensure promptness oh really yeah oh wow so the tip was actually I believe paid before to ensure promptness oh ████ well damn here's two bucks you better do the thing yeah so uh
2:32 just as a side note so square that you know everybody knows Square they have um reported a profit in just 2022 alone of $3 billion what just of people like using their system wow well I mean they're one of the most um used like they're one of the first ones too yeah cuz there's toast there's square there's also another one um um it's a competitor of toast but yeah I mean people are using that now a lot of them are using that yeah what do you use toast toast so the interesting thing is that this is the first um period since the pandemic that tipping has gone back down so people are kind of getting sick of it where like now it's kind of pivoting and it's actually gone down 19% oh it's not that
3:24 bad I actually I I think people don't have but it's been going up but they don't have spending money I think when when they were getting a lot of the um checks from the government I think it you know when it's kind of free like that I think it's easier to tip cuz the money flows out quicker when it's not and then if right now the econom is kind of down and people aren't really making as much and getting extra income so I think they tighten up on stuff like that and with I think inflation if prices of products go up right then they also tip less too cuz then the tip is increased too the price is higher overall but what do you guys do if you really don't feel like you should tip I just don't ████ tip if I don't feel like I should I just put zero What's a what's a situation where you feel like you shouldn't I think that there's certain industries that tip makes sense for me like when I
4:14 go to a sitdown establishment and then the waiter comes and brings me food and then deals with my annoying ass on explaining the menu and I ask 50 questions about the item and then I go oh but I have these adjustments can you make sure that that's oh and I'm in a hurry I'm trying to make it to the airport and then they get my food out quick and I'm like I've been an ass thank you so much for being so pleasant and making my day boom I'll give you like 40% or whatever the ████ it just depends on circumstances yeah because the way I see that server is like this is they're like a salesperson and me and this person has a transaction going on not a lot of people see it that way but I see it as that's how it's supposed to be standard Service is like okay cool
5:04 here's standard tip above and beyond is hey thanks for that and I learned it because I was a server so when when you know like when you grew up I think most Asian families don't get tipping so they'll just drop a couple bucks they don't understand the difference but then when I worked at a restaurant they tell you how it works MH not a lot of restaurants even know how to explain it but then when you interact with the customers you'll see why some people they'll give you 100% like if the bill is 100 then the then the their tip is $100 damn yeah some people will give you more tip than how much they paid for the meal and then that's where I'm just like oh ████ this is the difference between giving good service and giving horrible service and why I got more money or other servers got way more money than
5:56 people that just go and walk away yeah but nowadays it's just the expectation of just doing the job therefore grants and an additional tip and that's where I have a problem where do you not tip though that's the questions like where where do you not tip where there's where there's an option to fast casual mhm um I tip if I'm a regular at a coffee shop and then like in the beginning I don't but later I walk in and they go I know you're order boom boom boom then I'm like yeah I'm I'mma keep hooking them up or they'll be like oh I just get you and then I get to skip the line and it's like okay now I get extra so now I'm going to give you extra yeah but like the first time I don't ████ know this person and they're just doing standard ████ I'm like why y sometimes the presets are crazy too yeah yeah it's going to ask you a question it turns
6:46 around it's like 20 25 30 you're like huh what the ████ other ████ that's what they're pointing out here that like incrementally without a lot of people noticing they have increased those percentage just to whatever the ████ didn't it used to be 10 15 used to be it used to be 8 10 15 that's what I said I was like yo where's the 10% where's the but that's so smart on Square to do that because they're making so much money and they have incentive to have this tipping culture be such a tipping culture Society Square to tell you that you can set whatever you want dude they they play on it because they know that if they put those three options you're going to hit one of them because they make the other where you have to put yeah so you have to hit other and put put 0 and a lot of people won't rather do that and it's obvious you're doing it if you don't see the screen exactly so they'd rather go okay I'll hit 10 plus
7:38 no tip selection too right sometimes they do but sometimes but but you notice how the situation more to push the big buttons or the are the are the percentages and then the small button is like you're sure you don't want a tip like you know some places do that right and go no tip no tip this guy didn't a tip this guy this guy tines alert Chinese detected have you guys seen that sometimes they'll even change the order from left to right which numbers it is SE that most people just click the left most thing cuz it's usually the lowest 99% but honestly those are the tricks that like you kind of if you have to be careful of like you have to kind of look out for it and I think there's no shame in just throwing a zero on there throwing a no tip no but like for
8:29 certain things for certain things yeah I like it when they put $1 $2 $3 you tip your uh when you pay rent uh no I don't you don't tip your you tip your what the ████ here's an extra G this month I I give it I give it to the post office the mail you really don't tip your L are you being serious no I give it to my mailman no is that a thing yeah what what I'm trying my best to act like you guys are weird is it a thing it's a it's a joke oh it's a it's a meme it's a meme where like everyone goes like make sure we're in hard times tip your landlord dude all right tip your landlord here's four month security deposit hey nowadays you ████ might have to it's a joke about like like helping people like you know you know what I didn't know was pretty standard is tipping the
9:19 housekeeping I didn't know that that was a thing oh really mm- so when I left the hotel it was just ████ dirty and then like it comes back and I'm like damn this place is is clean but I didn't know you're were supposed to leave like cash or whatever and just like give them something every single time I didn't know that I didn't know that yeah that's a that's a thing that I just recently learned well I'm still I still don't ████ do it but like you know I mean like it's just weird I I don't think I I think I did that when I was like a teenager and then I never did it again yeah another thing is um haircuts I didn't know that that was a standard tooe oh I my yeah I tip like my no I never I mean look at I get the ████ can I be honest with you talk about your tipping experience and tattoo artists too what you know what I noticed but tattoo artists they're they get
10:09 super mad if the tip is just like anything honestly like if it's like 20 bucks they're like what the hell you know what I mean I'm like what cuz when I charge my clients a lot of them do not tip actually cuz they don't know tattoo or for hair haircut even the ones that you go to to cut yeah because I give them because you know if I do house calls I charge 150 so I'm like whatever man you don't T me that's fine cuz I was expensive okay but but then but then when it comes to other people I'm like yeah it's 40 or 50 and then I'm thinking 42 45 but you know what I mean but I've never been expecting tips from them ever so they always just give me a flat rate but I never expect tips because I'm like whatever I don't care it's in my house so I don't need a tip that's the way I look at it but that's actually pretty fair yeah so I was like thanks for coming to my house and coming to the craziest place in the city which is West Hollywood
11:00 parking's a ████ so no tip that's fine but some of them do tip on top which is completely fine I'm like cool thank you man I appreciate that I also kind of feel like tip is like a passing of karma so the more fortunate I become I do tip way more yeah if I could yeah yeah sure when you get really good when we first started JK like we were ████ scrounging pennies like I barely tipped very much but then as I was more fortunate then I'll try to tip as much you don't you don't tip the um person that does your baggage when you check in at the airport the baggage the guy that weighs it for you yeahp jar they tip jar ████ yeah holy ████ this guy's Savage do you tip the guy you don't tip the TSA guy that Pats you down do you tip TSA Pre you don't know that you're supposed to leave a dollar bill in your pocket when they pat you down your back
