| 0:00.0 | Joe in Jersey City. What's up, Joe? |
| 0:02.4 | How you doing? I started a small business about two years ago driving people to the airport. |
| 0:07.2 | Okay. |
| 0:07.6 | The guy that sits on the water with three Mercedes in it, he don't tip you. |
| 0:12.9 | Then I had a woman with two little kids. |
| 0:15.6 | They were sleeping. It's an early ride. I bring them in. |
| 0:18.7 | She gives you a wonderful tip, and you don't want to take it. And, you know, it's a crumbled up five and a crumbled up ten. Right, right. And they're the ones that tip. Well, you know what, Joe? My guess would be because they really appreciate it more and maybe the other person kind of expects it. I don't know. Those also could be trust fund babies that you're taking to the airport. Very possible. Who don't understand what tipping is. Right. You never know. And like I said, expect it and expect you to serve it. I'm loaded, okay? Yeah, I just come down. I heard he tips well, by the way. Yes, I've seen that. And I've heard that he tips well. He does, very much so. As do you? I do. Both of you are not born rich. That's true. That's exactly right. And both of you also do not allow others to handle that when you're around usually, which is very nice. Well, thank you. I appreciate it. Yes. Now, when you beat us, you want your money, which is fair. I mean, that's fun. That's competition. That's all good. But the other things you don't allow, which is very nice. Johnny and North Caldwell. What's up, Johnny? Jerry and Boomer, oh, yeah. Johnny, what do you got, brother? So I'm a plumber in North Jersey, and I get tip pretty frequently on my service calls. Now, sometimes I'm doing sewers, sometimes I'm doing faucets. But depending, you know, they see I'm working hard, they usually tell me a little, you know, a bone here and there, $10, $20. Okay. Depending on the people. So Johnny, what happens here now with this cold weather and everything, there's busted pipes all over the place. I'm sure you've probably went to a couple of those homes as well. Oh, yeah, absolutely. So many busted pipes over the last month or so because of the cold weather. Right. And so you're getting Saturdays and Sundays. Yeah, so you're getting tipped on those days, I would imagine, right? |
| 2:02.8 | Oh, yeah, 100%. |
| 2:04.1 | Yeah. |
| 2:04.4 | More than the regular days, right, than the regular service calls. |
| 2:07.7 | 100%. |
| 2:08.4 | Definitely, because this is an emergency call, and they're thankful that we're coming out either late at night or so early in the morning. |
| 2:14.5 | Which I totally understand, especially, and as I've said before, I've had issues where, |
| 2:21.5 | what do you call it? |
| 2:22.7 | We had guys come out on a Sunday afternoon when we were in a pickle, and you certainly |
| 2:26.8 | do give them this a zoo. |
| 2:27.9 | What you said seems to be more the norm. |
| 2:29.7 | Like, if it's an emergency or an off time, it's almost 100% of the time. |
| 2:33.9 | And I'm telling you this winter has absolutely, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's all around us and it's happening all over the place. How many people have had broken pipes, have had to deal with all of this, hopefully they have home insurance, you know, I went through this. I mean, it's not fun. It's just not fun. And the remediation guys that come in and take down the stuff, they work their ass on. I'm sure they do. I mean, it is manual labor, and they got to also be precise because they don't want to be breaking anything else. |
| 3:08.0 | Right, right. Right, because that's the other part of their job. They don't want to damage anything. Right. So you have the plumber and then you have the remediation crew come in and then you have the insurance adjuster come in. Then you have your contractor and your electrician and your plumber come back. Right. I mean, it's just a never-ending, you know, |
| 3:26.1 | a group of people that come back. Right. I mean, it's just a never-ending, |
| 3:25.3 | you know, group of people that come through the house and you've got to make sure that |
