I feel like Matt on this podcast allows himself to be a bit more open than on his other podcasts. It’s a lovely thing that they have one another to bounce ideas and thoughts off of. 👍
Oh i 100% agree such a better avenue he stepped into. Zane and heath and maria are amazing but this is way more of a solid group. Convo flows better with matt its more genuine and light and everyone listens to eachother without judgment. They are def good influences. WHISPERS**** i eat in bed babyyyyyy muahahahahaha
yes I love to see him thrive in this podcast. I’m gonna go out on a limb and say Heath is the one making him feel that way since he’s always throwing snarky rude comments at him for no reason at all
@@karlamartinezzz sometimes i feel like Heath is rude, Zane and Mariah are cool with Matt. But i feel like Matt is the reason their podcast is working, he is the main character.
Or maybe it’s Carly and Erin’s good vibes
@@karlamartinezzz I genuinely think Heath’s masculinity is very fragile with Matt because Matt is obviously smarter than him and isn’t afraid to make it known that he’s smart and Heath takes that personally and doesn’t like feeling stupid. It’s unfortunate because everyone makes it seem like Matt is a smart ass (which he can be sometimes) but I think that’s inevitable when you put one smart person in a room with ppl who aren’t as smart
honestly huge props to Carly getting through an ad with “hairy jingle balls” and “candy cane balls”. I can’t believe you got through that ad with a straight face hahahaha
I loved when Carly sat with mike bc it was like the clueless against the pop culture people so we can see them both confused at the same time 😭😂
I feel so validated by Mike’s love of grocery shopping. It’s literally my favorite hobby, I love grocery shopping. A+ human experience
Alien behavior
I agree Matt takes down some walls in this group. He doesn’t feel bad having opinions lol. I like it. I like the whole group.
Erin your bangs are givingggg, your hair looks soft af.
Mike & Carly I love you guys. Most times I find myself sharing the same ideas (:
I love that Carly always reads the manscape ads 💀🤣
This podcast could be 3 hours long and I’d still listen/watch the entire thing, genuinely one of my favorite podcasts❤
we need a grocery store episode now! fav grocery stores, pick-up vs. in store shopping, generic vs. name brand, types of people you may run into, shopping list repeats/grocery necessities, regional grocery stores (east coast, west coast, and of course texas) SO MANY DISCUSSION POINTS.
No
I also love going to the grocery store and walking through every aisle. It’s so mindless, it’s my therapy.
Mike saying just use red sheets was so funny
Carly is so active today probably because she is sitting next to Erin.
Phone calls on your birthday are intrusive? Haha mike is such an ass
I relate so much to Matt, it’s so nice to hear some of my anxieties confirmed in other people. Not because I’m happy he’s as anxious as I am, but because it’s nice to hear we aren’t alone. Being a people pleaser is exhausting and when you’re not used to being assertive it feels like arrogance. Matt, all of your listeners are behind you, stick up for yourself and keep practicing setting boundaries. Life is too short to spend it worrying for someone else, I’m working on it myself. I am so thankful for you guys, Tuesdays are my favorite days :))
About the tipping, I always ask the cashier quietly if the tip on the iPad goes to them. Because I used to work at a donut shop and the tips that were left on the iPad didn’t go to us the employees. I always felt bad when the customers would give a generous tip on the iPad bc it would go to the owners and not us. So if it’s appropriate I just asks the cashiers or leave a cash tip.
As a fellow chronic alarm snoozer, snoozing your alarm is definitely a bad habit and I acknowledge that.
I used to work at one of those ipad cafes. I never saw anyone get mad when people didn't tip. They would all just be really happy and grateful when they did tip. As for me, I mostly felt guilty because I felt like I didnt deserve it. I was only taking their order and already getting paid for it. Funny thing though, I now tip them every single time. The guilt and pressure is real.
Tipping is an American thing that I will never understand. WHY WOULDNT THE BUSINESS JUST PAY THE EMPLOYEES MORE? It’s like putting a bandaid on a bullet hole.
And how is a small business going to be able to afford to pay employees $500 a day? A good day at a busy restaurant I can make that. If you make good tips that’s how you make good money. And if it’s a great service people should tip 20%. I even tip fast food workers because I know they deal with hellish people all day long. People who are stingy/cheap/don’t believe in tipping should not go out to eat or get services like massages or haircuts…those people ruin my day. Tip your service people 20%+ they work hard!!!
@@jasminecarter5305 I was referring more to big businesses where the CEO makes more than all the service workers combined. Also, yes, good service should be rewarded, but I think the corporation should give them a raise or a better paying opportunity, instead of just expecting the clients to tip them. But also, I don’t live in a country where tipping is a very common practice so I could be just not getting the logic behind it. Don’t think your tone was really necessary tho
Also other countries seem to make it work, I’m sure America can start paying employees a liveable wage 🫡
I’m sorry I didn’t mean to have a tone people who don’t tip just really grind my gears lol. I understand different countries have different systems for tipping, but I think if you really knew how much more Americans make with the tipping system vs what people make in other countries on a “livable” wage you would choose the tipping system too. And I’m sure there’s exceptions, but over all people are probably making double here than what they’d make anywhere else. Unless there’s places in other countries that pay $60-$80 an hour for service workers specifically in restaurants.
@Jasmine Carter I totally get where you're coming from, but as a brit I gotta say I don't understand tipping one bit is there not a statuary miminum wage in the states? Genuinely have no idea, even small businesses here offer a minimum wage (suitable for the cost of living ect) x
Okay YES to Erin saying she gets anxious when she gets DMs!!! If I post something that sparks convo on my stories, having 30+ DMs (reactions or actual responses) is like having 30 people coming up to you irl. It’s too much socialization for me and I back out 😂 totally normal
Mike. I love a grocery store. When I was traveling for work I would go to all of the small random stores. My husband and I do grocery store dates and walk every aisle. You are not alone.
I stopped going to therapy as often when every session became a gossiping session lol but if anything that just proves she helped me and I was capable of handling my problems on my own now
this is the absolute best podcast because i feel like i completely relate with a different person on each topic 😭
I journal but the only way I’ve been able to be successful with it is putting zero pressure on it and just trying to do it once a week. Now I’ve gotten even more into it and and tape in photos or tickets or stickers, anything to do with that weeks entry. It’s really nice to have it to look back on!
I love Erin's clothes and style ☀️ she really puts extra efforts to record the podcasts 🧡
For the girls, I seriously recommend the diva cup. It's life changing! Loved how honest everyone was in this episode!
Hahahaha mike , you’re entitled to live your birth day however you want but that’s so fuuunny to just ignore everyone for the day
I work at a tea shop and we have like a tip option before you put your card in… I understand when people don’t but if you’re buying a 5-7 dollar drink (sometimes orders are like $30) and usually I am the one making your drink too, I think it’s super kind to tip even a dollar (especially on a super larger order that takes us a long time) cause it will go towards my and my coworkers checks, and we are the ones making your drinks.
Plus we are a local business who usually only has 2-3 workers at a time and sometimes it’s just me in there. Especially weekend nights when I’m at work instead of out like everyone else is 🤣🤣
i loved this lmao it was so relaxing just listening to them talk about dos and donts and habits. i love hearing about their routines. pls do a texting etiquette ep!!!
Crazy to hear how much you guys tip in American, I’m a listener from the Uk and the only time we usually tip here is at a really fancy dining experience. So to hear you do it for ubers, coffee shops etc blows my mind a little
My to do list is seriously a life saver, makes me so much less anxious about how much I need to get done
"no we know that you're sexist" lmao Carly 😂💀
Love this podcast! Always makes me smile!
as someone who worked at dutch bros, tips are very much appreciated!!!! especially when we are outside for hours taking orders. plus the drinks are ridiculous there
Another good habit is to think of highs and lows of the day, it’s a simple thing to do at the end of a night to yourself in your head, what made you smile that day, what was bad about that day, and what you can do to make the next day better!
I have so much to say about tipping. It’s getting OUTRAGEOUS
Erin's bangs look so good, fits her so well!
omg Matt is so cute in this! he always is but in this one he’s extra cute!! I totally relate to him when you guys were talking about grocery shopping. This is a huge pet peeve from my family that I take FOREVER in the grocery store. My favorites are trader joe’s and frys!! But yeah i go to EVERY isle and check out cool stuff. LOVE YOU GUYS!!💖💖
You guys are my laundry podcast
i cannot get over how sweet mike must be in real life. like him apologizing for talking about laundry too long made me wanna cry lol
Oh god the squeegeeing is so relatable! My mum is so neurotic with it, not only does she expect us to squeegee the glass but also the tiles?? As if they’re not made to be wet every day?? The one night I tried doing the tiles I scratched them when the bathroom was like 3 months old and never did it again. Lucky my mum wears glasses and has never seen the scratch lmao
😂😂😂😂
I work at a coffee shop, TIP YOUR BARISTAS! We literally get all of our money from tips
Matt, sunflower seeds. That's been the one consistent thing among people I've known that quit was they just started housing bags of sunflower seeds to help with the cravings since you have to open the shell and eat them and the salt is satisfying
Matt’s face looks like it’s maturing since being engaged! ( I mean that in the best way, he always had such a baby face to me )
as a mexican the burga ad startled me
As a barista yes we get very mad if you don’t tip because were hand making those drinks and alot of time especially at smaller coffee shops there making crafted drinks just like a bartender or cocktail waitress we live off of the tips a lot of times even at things like Starbucks a lot of those baristas use the tips for gas and food it’s just a dollar or a few bucks to you guys but to us it matters alot and is kinda sad when you don’t because now I have to make a drink now for someone that I feel like didn’t appreciate the time I put into making it and in coffee culture it’s just the nice thing to do!
About the tipping thing,
I personally work at a small business and we all split the tips which ends up being about a 30-40% bonus a month.
So I personally tip the small businesses that may get paid less hourly because they can’t afford to pay their employees what a corporation could.
But also I don’t take it personally when people cannot afford to tip or don’t choose to.
random but I'm loving everyone's sweaters
I started listening to this when you posted and I’m just finishing it now. But I got a bullet journal app and I love it! Also… based on this episode I think mike will be a really great dad one day
me the whole time they were talking about bullet journaling 👁👄👁
it's my favorite part of the day and setting the pages up myself is such a good outlet for creativity 😌 ✨️
Studies show that writing pen to paper is more memorable than using a phone!
okay matt thank you for talking about the eye contact because i was getting sunday scaries anxiety about me doing the exact same thing often !!
im totally with mike. when im having an off day i just need to zone out and peruse the aisles of a cvs or something 😭
I have a physical calendar on my wall, Matt 💀 and I’m 28. But I also have 2 kids who have a lot going on in school and it’s mainly for that and birthdays. I strangely don’t use my phone calendar at all though 🤔 I’d rather write it down and mark out the days as I go.
51:22 Ahh i loved that they talked about this because this is something I felt was a bad habit too 💀
To be fair I’ve worked many fast food jobs and I really appreciate a tip, I understand the annoyance of tipping before you get your food but I mean you’re getting a coffee which is 9/10 times going to be made correctly. We appreciate it none the less
I work at a small locally owned restaurant and when it comes to tipping… I always feel so awkward when that screen comes up because there is always that tension between the customer and me… but when it comes to credit card tips those tips get split between everyone working at the shop. They divide them into everyone’s paychecks.. every two weeks… they do that because everyone who is working at the said store is getting an even amount. When it comes to prep… customer service/dishes, and all in all the cooking of the food. That tip goes to every single person working in that restaurant or place of work not just the person you are talking face to face to. So the 20% isn’t just going to the person you are talking too it’s going to every person who works at the shop. I understand the discomfort people may feel when it comes to that tipping screen but all in all times have changed I personally along with a lot of people I am working with are going to school and renting a place and the salary itself isn’t enough so we do rely on tips, along with the other jobs we have to be able to afford school and rent.
steve lacy has honestly earned the right to be mad at the "fans" who have been at his shows. they only come bc they know that one part of one song and they're throwing their cameras at him (the one he smashed hit him) as if their payment for a ticket means he belongs to them for the two hours
i love grocery shopping like mike and i agree with patricia and the parm!
i too am a grocery store enjoyer i am with u mike
the things i would do to sit down and have a conversation with all of them instead of talking to my TV
I like the seating on this episode 😂🤣😅
the seating change definitely changed the dynamic
okay so I literally work at a froyo shop and we have a tipping ipad… I obviously like the extra money from tips but I think there is no reason to tip at a FROYO SHOP… it’s literally all self serve. people complain about it and i agree with them ahahaha
Omg Erin I randomly got obsessed with gummy bears recently too. I got a huge 5 pound bag and i eat handfuls of them throughout the day 🫣😂😂
Glad Matt brought up tipping at coffee shops. I also feel Pressure to tip and if I don't I also feel like my coffee will not be made well. Especially because I go All the time. So I usually tip $.50 every time and I don't care if anyone thinks I'm cheap. That shit adds up I go several times a week and its a happy balance.🤷🏻♀️
The manscape ad right after the period talk 😂
For the iPad job thing, I would only get pissed if the customer made me put in extra effort for them. Like if they weren’t an easy customer
We stan women in STEM: Carly & Erin! 😘
😂😂😂😂😂
Okay I feel like I should say this as a PSA - picking your nose in the shower is a bad habit. If you do make you sure you wash your hands directly after because if you pick your nose and then go to wash yourself, you can give yourself a staph infection since staph lives inside your nose. This is also important when drying your face. Dry your face with a seperate towel because the staph can go from your nose to your towel to your body.
Just checked Uncommon Goods out for the first time and got a Christmas gift for my sister! Thank you guys for the discount hookup!! ❤
food delivery: you better tip at least $5. the fees don't go to the delivery person. if a food delivery is saving you mileage and time driving, TIP. I once did a dash order that took over 1 hr and they tipped $0
So I work at a boba shop and I feel awkward having to see a customer tip. I only get a little mad when someone orders like 8 drinks during a rush and they don’t tip. Yet I do get it that not everyone can tip but as long as the customer is nice I don’t care about tipping.
If you use DoorDash or something similar, always always tip! I did an order yesterday that was a grocery order, it was over $50 and It took me a long time and i had to drive a far distance. DoorDash paid me $4 and the person didn’t tip me. I lost time and money over it
I worked at a subway for 8 years, people used to ask if they could tip all the time and we could accept them just didn’t have a tip jar or the card tip option then when we got it we began getting so many tips we were just so thankful for any tips we got and people were so kind. It wasn’t upsetting when people didn’t tip unless it was a crazy huge order then a bit annoying. It’s far more annoying when people complained that we had the option to tip. Don’t complain just don’t tip if you don’t want to that’s fine no problem with us we aren’t working for tips like servers or delivery people.
Also at least at our place the tips would be split between everyone working at that time and it just went directly on our paycheck.
I just watched the Health episode before this and it made me wanna chug green juice everyday. Now I’m watching this at work and I have an itch to go home and clean my room 😭
I work 50 hours a week, just went to my phone's digital wellbeing to check on my TH-cam screentime and this past week ALONE it was fuc-ing 49 hours (I don't have my phone on me when I'm working)
disclaimer: I'm on TH-cam premium so I do everything while listening to podcasts and I don't have social media so it's quite literally the only app I use.
“ ohhh yeaaaa r.i.p” 💀😂
Carly: Record Good Influences. Yeah obviously. LMAOOO
I agree with Matt though, def put mundane things like shaving on my to do list 😅
Steve Lacy wasn’t necessarily being mean but almost killing your friend purposely but still leaving him with permanent damage without taking any accountability is mean but seems like we js think different things are mean…🤷🏽♀️
Wait is this about David 😂
Mike with a shaved head is such a vibe
..but you can do that on iMessage. 🤣
as a self-serve frozen yogurt store employee who has to make people select on those ipads i do not care if you tip or not bc the whole experience is self serve
I work at a Hawaiian Bros, and we do the tip thing before service. Personally, I feel awkward for people having to do it because they’re usually looking around waiting for their card to go through, and I have to be like, “it’s gonna ask you a couple questions!” being the tip and what receipt they want. But I don’t care if they do or don’t because it doesn’t show me on my screen after they’re done anyway. I can’t speak for Starbucks and other places though. Plus, our tips are pooled so it doesn’t matter for me as an individual anyway.
Had to come over to the video form to say, when Mike talked about people cutting their nails in public. That’s such an east coast northerner thing. The amount of times I’ve seen people cut their nails on the bus 🤢🤢 when I moved to NC my employer asked what was my pet peeve and I said people cutting their nails in public. With just saying that she knew I was from the tristate area 😅
It's the Jersey in Mike with the grocery store. Cuz same I can be there for a long time
I’m late and catching up but the GASP I let out when Erin said she hadn’t heard of Notion. A dream, so fun!! Look up some YT videos, it is insane all the things you can do with it
I’m pretty sure they do sponsorships too ;) I think it would be right up your alley. 10/10 recommend! It will sync between your laptop and phone. It is prettier and easier to edit/navigate on your laptop, but super easy to refer back to from your phone when needed!
Erin always looks great but looks super great in this episode
for the voice message thing when you click the record button instead of hold it, it won’t auto send!!!! and you’re able to listen back to it
I used to have one of those iPad jobs and I could see when people wouldn’t tip, but honestly I didn’t care because I also don’t tip on those things
When i’m ordering for myself at a bar i just always leave a dollar or two for each of my drinks. Five dollars is way too much
old ipad barista - I say we never noticed if you didn't tip because we were used to it but I now always tip because I know what goes into it and go out of my way to tip since many people think you don't need to tip baristas
If Mike mentions deleting TikTok ONE MORE TIME
The more episodes come out the more I think Mike is like the opposite of me and we disagree on everything lol
Matt glows in this podcast
I feel like not tipping is an extremely rude thing to most people but im broke and really young so a lot of times i don’t tip. And I don’t mean to be rude or even think it is, but like if i can’t tip I can’t 😹
Erin read the reviews for haribo sugar free bears lol. They make people poo like crazy maybe it could work for you 😂
I use to work at a coffee shop where they had the IPad register that you’d flip around and honestly I was always felt more embarrassed as the employee. I didn’t care if people tipped me I was always just embarrassed we had to do that!
Yall should do show and tell. Where you bring an item with a story you guys haven't told eachother or the Internet.
I went to Subway the other day upon check out, the entire staff yells “hit no tip, we don’t get it anyways.”
POOP! HUMAN POOP, ON THE FLOOR! 😂
Im the worst at introducing people and I get called on it by passive aggression. HahHa I never think of it, and I think it’s my social anxiety
I have this thing with Mike’s opinions where its either I agree with it a 178% or I think he must be the most insane person in the world. No in between.
