You don't want to be trying to text and drive, but you can talk with gig workers all the world. You can talk to people who know what you're going through. They. They're out there doing the same kind of work. You know grinding out that gig work, so they know the struggles you go through. They know the joy of chasing the surge and all that good stuff chasing the surge.
Speaker 2:What are you chasing the?
Speaker 3:surge.
Speaker 2:You remember that back in the back in the old days, two decades ago.
Speaker 3:It feels like hey that's all right, it's all good, um, so, yeah, get on there and, uh, you can meet people and make some really good friendships on there as well.
Speaker 3:For sure yeah, and we also have on our telegram. Uh, a feature we have now on the podcast is the message of the week. This week, our message is um, from our friend, john in North Carolina, and he's showing you how dedicated he is as a delivery driver. How to do things right take care of your customer, make sure their stuff gets delivered there in primo condition. What's it called Message of the Week? Okay, what is it? Clip of the Week? Clip of the Week you got to sound like that.
Speaker 2:Welcome to Clip of the Week. Clip of the week. You got to sound like that. Welcome to clip of the week. Clip of the week. Okay, here's John Whoops. Nope, wrong button. Here we go. Sorry, my bad.
Speaker 3:What was John doing?
Speaker 1:The funny part is I was running out of time to do deliveries because I got some groceries in the car and I said to myself man, I got to cool these groceries off. So the order was for 10 bags of ice, that's it. I threw an extra bag in the back with my groceries, so now I don't have to worry about them getting hot. It was the perfect order at the perfect time. So my ass is going home now. If you're working tonight, be safe, Jason. It's going to get dark soon. It's going to get dark soon.
Speaker 3:Don't stay out too late. Yeah, so for those of you who don't know.
Speaker 2:Jason has to be home when the streetlights come on. You know what's so funny is that somehow started at the Whitecaps too, like my friends give me shit.
Speaker 2:Like yeah, because so I look at it. So there's two things when I leave at the Whitecaps. One if I'm leaving close to game finish, I don't want to get stuck in the traffic, so I mall walk my ass out of there. And when it's time for me to go, I fucking just bolt. I don't chit chat, I'm like peace, see you tomorrow. I mean I like hanging out with them, but I want to go home. I'm tired. I worked all day, you know what I mean. And. And so they started joking about the street light thing. They're like oh, jason is good. I'm like I never even said anything about the dark.
Speaker 3:That's funny that's funny, it's carried over um.
Speaker 2:And then going back to his comment about the ice, who hasn't thrown an extra bag of ice when they go to buy ice? I have not. You've never stolen a bag of ice I've never. You know what I do. I don't do it all the time, but sometimes I'm like you know what fuck this.
Speaker 3:This ice is already too expensive yeah, and I mean, you know, usually I mean nobody's watching. Well, that's the thing I think.
Speaker 2:I think it makes it different because it's outside and not like in the south, it's out here.
Speaker 3:I mean they must just assume we can take it.
Speaker 2:There's no lock on it. No, I mean, they just say go get it.
Speaker 3:I've been to one store and I don't remember where. It was some convenience store somewhere, but I remember having to ask for a key because they had theirs locked.
Speaker 2:Well, I think they all try to do that, but then they're like I don't want to walk out here seven. You know it's like in michigan by the lakes that at an 85 degree day you're gonna sell out that ice yeah, and it's funny, I don't think I even came out there.
Speaker 2:I think they just gave me the key when I, when I go swap out a propane take, I see their their life or their die inside. When I say that because yeah, you know they're busy, they, you know they gotta fucking go out there and swap it out.
Speaker 3:It's, it's yeah it's a pain in the butt for them I was at a dollar general one time and a guy was waiting and you know, like most dollar generals, there was one employee in the store and she had like five people in line. She's like I'm sorry, sir, you know you're gonna have to wait because she can't go out there when these people are in the store yeah, I mean I I think I would just do it.
Speaker 2:I think I that that is the. I don't want him staring at me. I'm like you know what these people can wait in the store like look at a magazine, look at your phone.
Speaker 3:I'm gonna be back in like three minutes take it in whatever order he got there you know, yeah or something.
Speaker 2:It's his turn. Yeah, I mean I.
Speaker 3:They make it forget, just want to throw out that, uh, the lift and waymo, lift and waymo thing in nashville, you're not crazy. We'll talk about. If we get a chance, we'll talk about it on the show, if not, it'll be on the patreon yeah, let's.
Speaker 2:Oh, oh, what a sell. I was just thinking to myself we need to. We need to sell the patreon like something I don't know. Like if we have a really crazy story, um, we should push it to the patreon.
Speaker 3:So you have to get it at the page. That's right. That's right if you don't hear you don't hear.
Speaker 2:So anyways, yeah, stories from the road, I'll go. Larry's story is better. Um, do you have that video clip? Do you want to play that? Oh, you know what? I got it in telegram yeah it's in telegram. It is in telegram. Let me see hang on one second yeah, I was gonna.
Speaker 3:I was gonna uh ask if you wanted that before the show, but you show up. As always, in last minute I show up 10, 10 minutes.
Speaker 2:That's the thing. Um, but as we're downloading this, uh, the group gives stats. Uh, anyone in the audience want to guess how many voice messages have been sent in this chat? Now, mind you, I mean, yeah, I mean, we started the show december 2017. I would say within that year, we started telegram, or maybe a little after that. Yeah, so put your guests in the chat how many uh voice messages that we had and how many photos, just for fun, okay.
Speaker 3:Somebody's going to remember this. Hey, yes for hey, why yes for his online? I want to take the opportunity to say congratulations to yes, for he last week a week ago today became a U S citizen, and I meant to mention it last week, but it works even better this week to mention it because he is actually watching and chatting tonight. So yes for congratulations. We're proud of you and, like I posted on your facebook, we got a good one when we became citizens, so congrats man.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I appreciate it. You probably didn't want to get deported, right? Is that the reason? I wasn't going to go there but I mean it is what it is doing it now, after being here for 25 years.
Speaker 3:I mean, I don't blame him, I would too. I would too.
Speaker 2:Okay. Yes, we're guested 10 K messages. That is so light because we have 11,000 photos in in the chat, 11,000 photos.
Speaker 3:So yeah, so put it. Yeah, put it in perspective, uh, of how many uh,000 photos. So, yeah, so put it.
Speaker 2:Messages are yeah put it in perspective, uh of how many uh voice messages.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, there's.
Speaker 2:uh, I lost my train of thought Uh, okay, so oh, I oh that video, that fucking 80. Yeah.
Speaker 3:I did download it.
Speaker 2:I just got to add it to StreamYard real quick Okay.
Speaker 3:Yeah, go ahead my story from the road. So well. I mean, we're going to see my story from the road.
Speaker 2:You can still set it up if you want to.
Speaker 3:Yeah, so anyway, I worked last Thursday. Thursday, thursday I ended up picking up this very drunk co-ed from an apartment complex and she gives me a warning in the video about the complex not to pick up people there, uh, and then um, and then she goes on to ask you know kind of about where I went to school and really mistakes under guesses how old I am I hope you haven't picked up many girls from that place, because don't?
Speaker 1:because they're whores. Oh really, yeah, f them.
Speaker 2:It's good to know. It's good to know, it's good to know you are. What high school.
Speaker 3:Did you go?
Speaker 1:to Bowling Green. You went to Bowling Green, I did. Do you by any chance know Toby McGinnis?
Speaker 3:Toby.
Speaker 1:McGinnis, mcginnis, mcginnis.
Speaker 3:I don't think so I was probably there way before him. Oh really, yeah, how old do you think I am?
Speaker 1:Like 30?.
Speaker 3:No Double, but I'm 59.
Speaker 1:You're joking. No, you are not 59. I am 59.
Speaker 3:There's no way 1966. Dude, you are not 59. I am 59. There's no way 1966.
Speaker 2:Dude, you look like 20.
Speaker 3:I honestly, I honestly want to guess 21. Well, I appreciate you. Yeah, so it's so funny. So, yeah, she comes out immediately. She's got her tennis shoes in her hand, so I don't know, you know, but comes out and makes the comment about you know, don't pick anybody, don't pick any girls up from there, cause they're whores. And I'm thinking, well, I just picked you up from there.
Speaker 2:So I was dying in the background Cause you're like good to know. I'm like, yeah, larry needs to know where the whores are. Well, I mean, you know to do something and uh, she's not gonna remember.
Speaker 3:I said anyway no but uh.
Speaker 3:So yeah, it's the first five minutes she's spent trying to put on her tennis shoes while we're driving, which is hard enough to do in a car when you're sober, right, um, unless you know, you're in your own car and you put your feet up on the dash, but she's been over trying to put her shoes on. It's not a bar. I picked her up from apartment complex steve. Oh gee, yeah, it's apartment complex. It's called the muse apartments. That's wild. Uh yeah, they've had like two shootings there oh geez um, yeah, so she spends that five minutes.
Speaker 3:It was a whole deal, man. I ended up taking her somewhere and then, um, dropping her off. And she she had some story. She was trying to find her sister who was in the neighborhood somewhere and dropped her off. She was stumbling really bad. I'm like I'm not leaving until you're someplace safe. Ended up giving her a free ride to pick up her sister and then then went to cookout. She was starving, she wanted to go to cookout. Wow, this was a whole adventure. It was. Went through cookout and then, uh, got a tray which has entree, two sides, and a drink. Then she got an extra order of onion rings. Then, as we're driving home, which is on the other side of town, she's like can we stop at McDonald's? I really need chicken. Her sister's like we're not asking this poor guy to go to McDonald's, which it was closed anyway, thank goodness, which was good.
Speaker 2:It was an interesting ride, for sure so that second part of the trip was all free? Yeah, yeah, did you? Did they tip out at all, or? Uh, no, dude, what are you doing?
Speaker 3:I, I'm gonna. I was gonna make sure she got home she was in bad, bad shape
Speaker 2:I know she's probably still hung over from from what was that?
Speaker 3:you know what? Actually I haven't looked. She may have tipped.
Speaker 2:You know, yeah, how the tips come in later, um so I don't know, man, if I was like the sister and maybe she was hammered too, I'd be like oh my god, thank you so much for taking care of my sister like she was. Very. She was appreciative. No I know, but like especially in this digital era, if you don't have cash like what's your venmo? I'm literally gonna send you 20 and it's so quick now. So yeah, um well, that's a good story. I appreciate that it was funny 20.
Speaker 3:I know, just like dude, how drunk are you, you cannot see, obviously.
Speaker 2:Well, I mean, we all know when we used to drive, or I mean, you still drive. Um, it's uh, um, it's so dark in there and they're hammered and they're already seeing blurry like. Why do you think they call them drunk goggles, like?
Speaker 1:oh yeah, why do you think?
Speaker 2:there's so many ugly people in america. Two ugly people are getting drunk and they're having sex. I mean, that's just the reality of what's happening. I mean mean it's true, it's like there's about 1% good-looking people not me and everyone else is just bumping uglies.
Speaker 3:That reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where they were talking about that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, Dude, if you yeah, see, you know Seinfeld A lot of times in my life I'm quoting that stuff and people have no idea what I'm talking about.
Speaker 3:But yeah, there is an episode about that.
Speaker 2:How many people do you think are attractive? Yeah, I don't remember what. The percentage was Undateable. Yeah, yeah, yeah, and he does talk about how you think these people are getting together.
Speaker 2:The alcohol, exactly exactly Way to call me out on my original thought you jerk Stories from the road from me. Uh, sometimes you gotta plow forward. I appreciate. Oh my god, see he comes on our show and be completely inappropriate, because you know that's not. He ain't saying that on his show. Uh, I don't really have any stories. I did a flex route. It was fine. I did some spark. It was fine, other than like it took forever on saturday for me to get a route till. It took like almost till one o'clock to get a three o'clock route and I had been running that app all day.
Speaker 2:So yeah, I mean, thankfully you didn't get attacked by chicken or anything no, I mean, uh, yeah, I mean, if I I don't know that, honestly I'm more scared of a rooster and a turkey than I would be a dog, honestly, because the dogs are predictable. I know dogs, but a chicken. I mean, chickens are bootable, but a turkey I've ran from Tom turkeys before because I'm like they're going to peck the shit out of me. I don't know, I don't know, I can't predict them. So come to a good thing.
Speaker 1:All right.
Speaker 2:Gig economy. In the news, like we talked about at the beginning, uber sued for the department of justice for alleged discrimination against disabled riders and Larry's going to talk about that.
Speaker 3:I know everybody's shocked that Uber is getting sued. It's it's unprecedented. It's it's unprecedented. It's never happened before. Nobody's ever sued Uber before.
Speaker 2:This is. This is like first time.
Speaker 3:This is breaking news here. So on Thursday, yeah, the department of justice uh suit Uber. Uh, they're alleging that uh, uber discriminates against riders with disabilities. He said that, despite the importance of its service to people with disabilities, uber denies people with disabilities full and equal enjoyment in several critical ways. They routinely refuse to serve individuals with disabilities, including individuals who travel with service animals or the ones who use stowable wheelchairs. They add on surcharges for cleaning, fees for service animals and cancellation fees to riders that they've unlawfully denied service. To Complaint alleges that drivers insult and demean people with disabilities or ask them inappropriate questions. Of course Uber denies that, saying that they provide training for their drivers. They have a zero tolerance policy for confirmed service denials. The government's seeking a jury trial and injunctive relief, monetary damages and to charge Uber a civil fine for what it says are violations of Americans with Disabilities Act. I don't know about you. I get the service animals and the people with wheelchairs. I get that. I get those messages pretty regularly from Lyft and Uber.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but like that's probably the most messages I get from them as far as like that kind of stuff, Right?
Speaker 3:So uh, I don't know. I don't know what. You know what the DOJ wants Uber to do. I'd be interested to read or hear what they think they should do to you.
Speaker 2:Know, above and beyond, what they're doing now you know, we talked about that in the last show, I think it was. Oh, it was like that door dasher that I had that tiktok about with like that person being disabled and asking them to come to the car. Like where does the? Uh, where's?
Speaker 2:the line at where's the line, the ada, like you know your independent contractor do you still have to follow those rules, like I mean, ethically you should, sure, right, but like legally, if you're an independent contractor, are, are we required to have to do that? I mean, we're technically like a small business, right, and and if you say that then I feel like it applies. But I also think it's kind of a gray area.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it is tough because you know, I mean we, you know, as you said, as independent contractors we should have the right to cancel, you know, if we want to. But yeah how do you draw the line, or where do you draw the line and how do you ensure that people like this do have access to transportation that they desperately need?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean on a personal level, I wouldn't care as much as a dog. Honestly, I'd be more annoyed about the wheelchair. Like how am I supposed to? Okay, it's the middle of winter, I'm taking this wheelchair. It's nasty, it's full of salt, like. Again, I'm. I'm not hating on the person at all, I really am not. I'm just I'm just being vulnerable, like from an honest position. I don't really want to pack that into my. You know, I really have a small car now. I don't even have a big sedan. Yeah, I have no trunk. You know what I mean. So, like I I would, they would have to sit in the front seat cause I would have to put it in the back.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's tough. I mean, there there is a guy that I used to have on a pretty regular basis and he was in a wheelchair. Super, super nice guy. I mean, he was always interesting to talk to. But yeah, you had to. You know, you had to take the wheels off. No-transcript there.
Speaker 2:Um, I don't think ever I was gonna say you got a big trunk yeah, yeah, my camry has a pretty good size trunk.
Speaker 3:Yeah, um smaller car? Yeah, I don't, I think it would fit yeah.
Speaker 2:So I don't want to like deny the ride, but honestly I'm just like I don't even want to fuck with this. And again, is that my right as an independent contractor? Am I denying him service? I'm not denying him because he's handicapped. I'm denying because it's a hassle, just the same as a hassle if a drunk girl's falling over or you got right, right, some other things I mean, I, you're allowed to do that, so it's, it's.
Speaker 2:It's definitely a tough thing to kind of figure out now, the article of which I didn't read. Are they suing like for a different amount, like not for money, right, just for them?
Speaker 3:yeah, no, there's. Oh, they are money too. Yeah, it says they're suing for money too. Yeah, it says they're suing for where did I highlight it? Yeah, seeking jury trial, injunctive relief, which I don't know what it means. It says monetary damages and to charge Uber a civil fine. I'm going to look up injunctive relief and see what that means. It says. Injunctive relief is a court order compelling a party to perform a specific action or refrain from a particular activity.
Speaker 2:So I guess there's just a uh, you know, telling them to stop doing this yeah, well, and then again, like you said initially when you were done reading the article, like what's uber, what more can they do?
Speaker 3:right, I mean. I mean, like I said, I see it several times a year from both companies it seems like Lyft, even more with the service animals especially but at least four or five times a year, if not more, you get those little messages in your inbox when you turn on the app and one of them is about service animals or people.
Speaker 2:Or sometimes, if I do ever get emails which I rarely do do from either company, that would be what it's about yeah, um, I guess the only thing they could do is like if you ever get a complaint about a ada complaint, they just deactivate you well, I mean, that's what they say they do, because it says that we have zero policy if we can confirm that they've denied a ride yeah, and how are you gonna confirm that exactly? Just like you're gonna confirm that I'm drunk driving?
Speaker 2:around there you're not because you're a fucking technology company and you have no access to the inside of my car. So it's again. I'm not hating on it. They should be able to get a ride. Uh, I don't know.
Speaker 3:Fucking uber, like you do all these other businesses, make a wheelchair, fucking one yeah, and I mean I, I would think there are companies out there um both season 124 million is how much they're soon for um you would think there's companies. I know we have companies here that haven't, you know, had the wheelchair accessible van yeah, just sub it out yeah, you would think that that somebody would figure that out, a way to do that and make it work, right. I mean that the issue the issue is is it's?
Speaker 2:there's not a lot of it, so there's not a lot of money in it, but that's why I? Say maybe sub it out like remember, when we and maybe that still do that go-go grandparent or whatever yeah, go-go, grandpa do something like that. But for you know, wheelchair or, or, or.
Speaker 3:Make it like it needs to be an xl, like if you have a wheelchair, yeah, yeah it has to at least be an xl because, like I said, it barely fits in my trunk and it's a pretty good size. Camrys have pretty good size trunk. But yeah, you have to. Sometimes you have to.
Speaker 2:You know twist and turn in a certain way before it will, you know for it goes and it all depends on my car, like towards the end of me driving that pilot, I was less given a shit about throwing a wheelchair back there there you know what I mean. But if you got a brand new, like suburban, the carpets and you're like oh yeah, you don't want to do that. You know, like my car, I'm starting to get over it. I got 43 000 on that ev and I'm not that I don't care about.
Speaker 3:I still wash it and clean it, but I'm just like yeah, well, that's why I carry that like tarp in my car and you know whether I have a service dog I'll lay. I'll have no qualms laying it down in my seat, or yeah if I'm wheelchair in the trunk or something like that.
Speaker 2:It's a good point, that's a good tip, honestly, is to have. You don't have to be a tarp because you know you collect bodies, like Larry does. You can actually just get an old blanket, you know, or something, yeah, anything like that, yeah, anything like that will work. Yeah, all right. Well, we'll see what happens. Okay, moving on, this is we. We kind of already talked about this. Hey, Larry, by the way, oh, no Fortune, they freaking locked me out.
Speaker 2:Doesn't matter, I was going to say, I started saying to you that I really like that highlighter because I can click out of the article and click it again and it's still highlighted. Yeah, but anyways, lyft CEO says company company will save 200 million from insurance costs from california worker unionization deal.
Speaker 3:uh, there was a couple things I wanted to highlight what he said, but of course I can't, um, I can't see it, so, uh, yeah, I probably, I probably said that we have to remember, I need, I need to start like create a running list of these places where you know we need to not get our well, you know, is there, yeah, is there a way, is there a like a back door to these?
Speaker 2:that?
Speaker 3:you can usually do an incognito browser and look at it okay, okay well uh, let me see if I can pull this one up in an incognito browser yeah, I was just gonna, if it'll work.
Speaker 2:Um, I know about incognito, you know I know you do let's see yeah, let me pull it up in incognito oh interesting so it doesn't recognize it as the same browser oh, but I bet if I did it again it would, or maybe not well, if you close it and then open a new incognito browser okay, all right.
Speaker 2:Well, I appreciate that tip because I never thought about it. I'm old, I don't know shit. Um, okay, so obviously I don't have it highlighted. Um, okay. So one of the quotes was from our fearless leader. Is it david risher? Yeah, david. Uh, our insurance rates will go down and we'll save approximately 200 million, which we will pass back to the drivers in terms of better pay for drivers. So I wanted to bring that up because, because fucking Uber did not say that?
Speaker 2:or they did, or they put it on the tail end of the sentence, right, yeah, it was like oh, we get lower costs for us and for the customers, and then something about drivers, but it wasn't like as in terms of better pay, you know what I mean. So at least he's like, you know, putting his money where his mouth is.
Speaker 3:I don't know yeah, sorry, everybody who believes that hold up your hand baba sue, baba sue.
Speaker 2:You don't believe nothing. You don't believe nothing. Um, we'll see.
Speaker 3:Yeah, we'll see.
Speaker 2:So the reason if you're you know this first time to listen to the show that they're going to save money because they struck a deal with the governor and basically said, hey, we'll allow this unionization, but you got to lower our whatever the what were they at? A million or something, per instance? So, they're lowering that down. It's going to save. Save them money right bubba sue, I'm going to smack you. She says I believe you're afraid of the dart um hold on I gotta mute my mic.
Speaker 2:A second frank knock it off. Sorry, my dog is barking like an idiot oh it's all good, hold on, frankie, come here. Frankie, he won't listen to me, that stupid dick. Is that baxter? No, baxter died like five years ago. I can't remember, I can't remember your dog name. No, it's. Uh, that's franklin, franklin. Yeah, frankie, come here. It was getting worse, though, like it's like annoying me. It's not like the audio is like whatever, but Jesus, yeah, hold on, god damn it all right, oh goodness, momentary pause.
Speaker 3:We are trained professionals here. Don't try this at home.
Speaker 2:I was just explaining how we're trained professionals and they shouldn't try this at home. Oh my god. And then, then, my, my pit bull, he'll start barking and he'll run in our bedroom and get on the bed and stick his the the windows covered with his snot and he's like. I'm like, oh my gosh, you're all dead to me right now.
Speaker 3:Oh my gosh. Sorry about that y'all. My weekend was good. Josh had a good weekend. How about?
Speaker 2:you. Oh my gosh, we're talking about our weekends.
Speaker 1:We've got to fill the air while you're out chasing dogs.
Speaker 2:You know just should we have done this?
Speaker 3:Hold on, we're going to have to get a new one. A new one. We're going to have to get a new one, a new one, we're going to have to get a new one.
Speaker 2:It says Jason has to quiet down his dog. Sorry, I'm trying to click off it, I'm new here. There we go. Jason's yelling at his dogs again saying the F word, okay. Yelling at his dogs again saying the f word, um, okay. So yeah, basically they're saying uh, uh, david, richard said I, I think people that. I think people believe that drivers and lift are on the opposite side of the thing. Richard said often we're not. That's a lie. Often, when drivers make more money, lift makes more money, lift makes more money, drivers make more money. Uh, it's linked, he says. He said that lift would pass down savings from the reduced insurance cost of driver. So he's laying it out on the line. You can that, especially that last line. You can't really skew that.
Speaker 2:The other one maybe like yeah, there's wiggle room, there's wiggle room, but that one literally says he's gonna pass it down. Not how, because he probably doesn't know how, or he's lying through his teeth like Bubba. Sue said yeah.
Speaker 3:I would not be surprised. I mean, we're all so jaded, but it's for good reason. Every time they announce something we know. It's another way for them to take more money.
Speaker 2:For sure For sure. All right, so we got a couple of videos coming up. If you're on tiktok, uh, the full show streams on youtube. We do not have full access to tiktok yet until we hit a thousand. Jason hasn't put any videos up yet lately on tiktok, but we're at like 720, something like that.
Speaker 3:So yeah, so everybody on tiktok, you know, share this. Uh, you know, get your friends to subscribe and we can hit a thousand and do the full live stream.
Speaker 2:I know that that's going to be nice so. I, I got to get out in there and do some more videos. I gotten lazy. I haven't done one in like a week, so uh, all right, larry, driveway fail.
Speaker 3:Yeah, so this first video. This is a unique way for.
Speaker 2:I'm not seen somebody use their amazon delivery vehicle like this before, so all right, hopefully this is the right video. Is that the wrong one?
Speaker 3:wrong one oh, there we go nothing beats a jet two holiday, and right now you can save 50 pounds per person.
Speaker 1:That's 200 pounds off for a family of four.
Speaker 3:So for the audio listeners, this is Amazon delivery guy. He's got the Amazon van, he goes, he has like the sideboard that you step up and do the van on and basically uses it kind of like a toilet. He sits on the edge, he goes over, pulls the shorts down, sits on the edge of the step there and proceeds to do his business. Uh, there, I don't know why he I it looked like he just took a piss.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so there's so many things wrong with this video yeah, I don't, I don't understand first of all, clearly he had been holding that for a long time because that was a lot of pee pee. Second of all, I'm not judging from sitting down because, I'll be honest with you, I'm going to be vulnerable again. When I'm at home I pee sitting down. I just do. It's easier. I'm old, I'm tired and it's cleaner for the whole bathroom, for everyone's experience.
Speaker 3:Yeah, no, I understand and I agree with that, but not when you're outside.
Speaker 2:No. And so my point number three is like have you ever just gone to the crook of your door and taken a leak? When I used to work for weed and feed, if I didn't have a bottle which again that's point number four, why I mean you have a, a penis, I mean pee in the bottle, um, I used to crack the door and I would just like you couldn't tell. I mean, you saw liquid coming down, but you're like you couldn't see my junk or anything yeah, and I mean I, I don't know where this guy's parked.
Speaker 2:It looks like a customer's driveway, yeah look, it did.
Speaker 3:It did look like he just made delivery and came back and he's sitting on the side. Then, you know, the van's parked on the side of the road and he sits down and drops his drawers and takes a whiz, not knowing the whole context of it, as we never, you know, we never do, it just gives. Like I said, there's just so many questions.
Speaker 2:I love the fighting not fighting, but the playfulness hi frank, thanks for barking. Come down here and lay with me. Um josh p sitting down also. Yeah see, there's nothing wrong with that. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that um I don't. I just don't get it like. You even have an amazon bag in there like pee in that, dump it out. When you get to another customer's house, grab a hose, spray it out real quick, like whatever. To another customer's house, grab a hose, spray it out real quick. Whatever, yeah something.
Speaker 2:There's so many more different things that you could have done and now you're going to get fired, you dumb shit. Yeah, anyways, all right. Okay, next up rate his delivery. Okay, that's the one I played. I don't know how those got out of order. So this is a driver that does something extra, which normally you don't see this, so for the audio listeners you could probably hear a little bit. He drags his garbage, the customer's garbage can, up. He had walked up the driveway.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's pretty, you know a pretty decent driveway too. It's not like a tiny driveway. But yeah, on his way up he just he grabs it with one hand while he's carrying the package with the other brings their garbage up, puts it you know where it's supposed to go, and then does his delivery. So yeah, that was.
Speaker 2:That was good. I've never done that delivery, but when I used to work for weed and feed I would sometimes because I'm on the machine, so I would one hand the machine and just grab the thing and just haul my ass up the driveway as long as it wasn't like a super long driveway Cause I mean I I can only do so much with.
Speaker 2:I was going to say I can do so much one handed, uh before, like you know, it's hard to drive one handed. Like you know, you can kind of go straight. But uh you like that one, larry, I did so, but yeah, I I wouldn't do it on the regular but I had favorite customers that I would be like absolutely take care of I would bring it up so good on him for do that, doing that man, we got.
Speaker 3:We got fights breaking out in our chat yeah, they ain't gonna fight.
Speaker 2:They're, they're lovers. All right, larry way. Wayne County gives. Woman gives birth to first child in car. This time it was an Uber.
Speaker 3:Yeah. So this woman in in Michigan is Wayne County, michigan, let's go Detroit, yeah, um. So, uh, her the first child she had, um, she had it in a car. And this time, when she was pregnant, um, with her second child, it happened again, but this time she was in an Uber and not her own car.
Speaker 3:So Uber driver Maggie Waitley said she knew something was up. You know, when she saw the customer walking into the car she was, I thought to myself oh my gosh, you know she is ready to give birth. She is, you know, she's ready to pop. When she got in the car she said I said we're going to the hospital, right, and the woman said yes, so we started the ride. The girl had asked how far it was, how long it was going to take, and she said about 15 minutes. And then about three minutes into the ride the customer was like I just couldn't take it anymore. The baby was coming. So the driver called 911, pulled into the parking lot of Speedy Lube on King Road and baby Grace was born in the backseat of the Uber.
Speaker 3:So her previous child, her first child, was four years old at this time. He was along as well. So they said it was kind of traumatizing for him. He was trying to get out of the car so the driver was kind of you know, taking care of him and then, you know, trying to take care of the the customer as well. Um, so finally they get to the uh said, when we get to the main entrance of the emergency room, the um, the customer or the driver had him in the front seat of the car. The customer said that when she had her first baby it was three pushes and he was out. And this one happened the same way Three pushes, he was out. She said I really wanted Grace to have the hospital experience but I just had my car babies. So she calls them her car babies. So that's got to be kind of freaky to have two kids um, deliver them in in a car.
Speaker 2:Well, sounds like in you know I always say this to my kids or anyone, no offense because you're going to be offensive, but sounds like you need to work on your um downstairs muscles there a little bit. I mean just saying um josh says did the driver get weight paid before he closed out the ride? I mean, as you should, was it 10 cents a minute?
Speaker 3:I think you should get way more than that. Well, this, this, somebody gives birth in your car.
Speaker 2:That's gonna be a mess yeah it, um, it was the smell, um the. The thing is, though, is like this kind of brings up to our service dog in wheelchair, if you like. If you saw a pregnant woman, like, are you like? I don't know if I would, oh, come on now, I don't know if I would, I think I might just call the tarps, for that's what the tarp, oh Larry. Oh gross. What tarps, for that's what the tarp, oh larry oh, gross what.
Speaker 3:You can lay the tarp down there for her to sit on. That's better than leaving her stranded.
Speaker 2:I ain't gonna leave her stranded, I'm gonna call an ambulance and then she can be like I can't afford an ambulance. I was like, well, you can't afford me because I'm gonna sue you in small claims court for the smell. Couldn't even get that out with one breath. So, yeah, I guess good for her. I don't know Good story to tell. I just don't think I'd pick up a pregnant woman, Although honestly, if I'd see her I would probably pick her up. And once she's in, you're like oh shit.
Speaker 3:I'm not going to kick her out then, because when you see her, I mean you're not saying, oh, she's going to have it in my car, especially if she's not having contractions or showing any indication.
Speaker 2:It sounds like this happened really quick. I mean you're not saying she's laying on the sidewalk with her legs spread doing and she's laying on the sidewalk with her legs spread doing.
Speaker 3:But this it sounds like the driver was a really good person and she said that, um, she said they become friends. Uh, um, she said that she found out that, uh, you know the lady didn't have a car, so she's trying to help find a way to get her one. Um, it sounds like they keep in touch now as well. So well, to help find a way to get her one. Um, it sounds like they keep in touch now as well. So well, that's cool.
Speaker 2:I mean, yeah it, it is an interesting story. I'll give you that. Um too sorry, I was getting ready for the next article, but um, yeah, it is an interesting story.
Speaker 3:I just I think it would be such a cool story to have it happen yeah.
Speaker 2:So, uh, moving on to the uh, no time, no time for pumpkin patch. Hire a porch decorator again. I didn't know this was my article, so I can't read it without subscribing for free. Okay, there we go. Now I'm gonna get spam mail, um. So this is actually a cool idea. I've seen it kind of happen in West Michigan here, but they are having people. It's fucking big money.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and I think they said in there is like people were charging like 200 bucks, something like that.
Speaker 2:Oh, I mean it's more than that. I mean, when it's high end stuff, that it's like thousands of dollars I mean some of these, depending on what you're bringing, and stuff it's like thousands of dollars I mean some of these, depending on what you're bringing and stuff. Um, this article doesn't actually it wasn't worth clicking on, uh, because it doesn't really give me um a ton of information. But uh, like uh says, this lady does uh, $300 for 28 pumpkins to 1,275 for a 96 pump Good package, why $1,275?
Speaker 2:for a 96 pumpkin package. Why did?
Speaker 1:I struggle.
Speaker 2:Did you see me stroke out Pumpkin package that includes design, setup and removal? I mean, I look at some of these pictures and I'm like I could do this, but I mean you just haul it over there and set it up. I mean it is cute. They do have like different, like different colored. You know there's some white pumpkins, some green, like some gourds and stuff like that is cute. Um, but I know somebody that that does this. Uh, not on a huge scale, but they only typically do it for, like um, thanksgiving and christmas, just around those kind of times. Um, yeah, see, bubba Sue, they do it here for Christmas. Haven't seen it for Halloween. 96 pumpkins, that's a lot of money. Well, that's what I'm saying. I mean, these people that have ungodly amounts of money that ain't shit to them. They shit $1,000 bills. You know what I mean. So if I could do it although I don't think I still would, even if I was a millionaire I'm like I'm not spending $1,000 on somebody putting 96 pumpkins, I mean, and they take it away too, though.
Speaker 3:So I was like I don't know. Yeah, but I mean those houses that would look just as nice with just a couple pumpkins up around the door. Good boy, just keep adding pumpkins. It doesn't make it look exponentially better if I keep adding pumpkins. It doesn't make it look exponentially better. Keep adding pumpkins.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean, if that's all you're going to add, is pumpkins. I mean I do like the color, the mix of colors and stuff.
Speaker 3:But yeah, you could do that with five or six pumpkins.
Speaker 2:Yeah, maybe ten. I'm going a little higher.
Speaker 3:I wonder how they came up with 96 you know, yeah, that's a weird.
Speaker 2:You know that's probably what she did, um, but whatever, it's fine, I I don't. Yeah, I probably see what costs a pretty penny. Yeah, it's it's the year you got a lot of money. I don't think I'd pay 200 for it, like no, I wouldn't. If I'm gonna do it, I'm gonna go big on it, like I'm gonna pay big on it, but I don't know if I'd want to do this gig either. I mean, 96 pumpings, you're gonna have to have a dump truck. You're not bringing that over in an suv, I mean no 96?
Speaker 3:no, I don't think so um, yeah, I think it's gonna make more mess in your car than a wheelchair yeah, especially if you get an accident.
Speaker 2:Pumpkins you you're in total, total the car.
Speaker 3:It's like if you spill paint or oh yeah, you're just pumpkin guts all over your car.
Speaker 2:I mean cracks down in the door I don't think insurance would do for pumpkins, but do you know if they do that for paint, like if you have like an, they gotta right. How do you get that out? I think so, yeah, I mean, it's ruined. Yeah, it is ruined. Can you imagine calling your insurance guy? Hey, so, so something happened, something happened I'm gonna send you pictures so you believe me, but this, we're gonna have to total this out, so yeah, all right here we go, waybo in the news.
Speaker 2:Um, okay, this is where this is. This is called the benson boone something I don't know, does he? You know who benson boone is? He's uh like he's a pop star. Um, he came out with I really love the song that he went viral with. It's uh fucking cool. It's got like a little bit of rock and ballad in it, but anyways, I think he does flips and so they call this the Benson Boone on Waymo Cars. So we're going to watch this. Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Speaker 1:Oh, oh, I'm a fucking hero I'm a fucking hero. We have a police officer investigating the Waymo they're investigating the Waymo. Oh, the Waymo's good.
Speaker 2:She wants to make sure the Waymo goes.
Speaker 1:It's moving. It's moving, let it go. Yes, it's moving, let it go. Let it go. Let it go there, we go, all right and it's off.
Speaker 2:Good job, man good job. You did a good job the end is the best part where they're like she has no idea, they were just doing. Flips off that fucking thing oh yeah.
Speaker 3:And then that that one lame guy at the end who just like jumped off, yeah well when trying to get in on the action.
Speaker 2:Yeah, of course you know FOMO, the guy doing the flips. There's no way he was intoxicated because he would have died.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he would, he would. I mean, those are good flips. I mean I, yeah, I'm terrified, I would be terrified doing that. But again, this is the abuse of the Waymos and you know it's just like it's gonna happen. It's there's no way to do it. I think, way, most should just be like you know, I'm gonna hit this fucker. You know what I mean. I'll take, once they get big enough and they can like swallow some big lawsuit or whatever. Like right now they'll shut them down, but like in 20 years, when everything's like that's normal, we just, we will just fucking runs them over bitch we'll just have it like where they can electrify the car and it shocks them oh yeah, some sort of deterrent yeah, yeah, our little paint gun pops out, just just loads them up with paint balls, or you know something what I?
Speaker 2:I know batman had a car that did that, but wasn't there like a, like a cartoon or something that would do that with the cars like it would like an oil? There was, or maybe that. Oh, no, it was. Oh, my god, I'm an idiot. It was spy hunter. Do you remember that game? Spy?
Speaker 1:hunter. Yeah, oh yeah, you kick out the oil slick.
Speaker 2:Yes that game was awesome.
Speaker 3:Oh, we are aging ourselves but yeah, the waymo needs something like that for sure yeah, definitely yeah, because, yeah, this is, yeah, it's just, you know, more prevalent they get, uh, uh, you think you'll get more prevalent as we get more cars, or where people just get used to them eventually and because now it's a novelty every time.
Speaker 2:You know, a lot of times when people see them it's a novelty yeah, I think it's a novelty and I think until they start arresting these people, like, just like. I mean, obviously laws don't prevent everything and there is a law, I mean it's vandalism, right, but they're probably not arresting people. Waymo needs to pursue these people and maybe they do, for, like the graffiti and stuff or the actual damage, right, I mean I'm sure he did dent the car up. I mean, yeah, you're staying on the hood. Yeah, I was waiting for him to step on that windshield because they don't hold a lot of weight before they crack.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, I would not try that.
Speaker 2:Yeah. So I think I think I think you're right. I think a little bit of its novelty, because they're like oh, it's like you know, no one's in here so I can get away with it, but like I think they should, waymo should take that video and track those guys out and charge them with something.
Speaker 3:Yeah, there's no like a like. A like in the cartoons, arm with a boxing glove, comes out and just hits him in his nuts.
Speaker 2:Well, you're not. You're not far off with electricity. What about, like an electric fence? You know what? I mean That's's going to make you think twice. I mean it does it for the cows.
Speaker 1:Yep.
Speaker 2:You know what I mean.
Speaker 1:Yes, it does.
Speaker 2:I'm going to jump around a little bit. I want to talk about the robo taxis Can you hit on that? And then we can kind of see what else we got left. The Zooks.
Speaker 3:Yeah, okay, yeah. So Amazon has introduced its own robo-taxi service in Las Vegas. It's called the Zoox the Zoox robo-taxis. They're offering right now. They're offering free rides to different parts of Vegas. They only have certain places that they'll pick up and drop off. It says those include the Resorts World, the Luxor Hotel, new York Hotel. It says the longest distance that they will travel is about three miles and they carry up to four passengers three miles. Well, that's just what they're doing right now. It'll go further. It's just they're just introducing it. You know, trying to get, I think they've been training it there and now they're wanting to introduce it. But well, uh, before you continue.
Speaker 2:What's kind of funny is? I think faith has seen these like we're finally talking about as an article, but they've been around there for a bit right, but they just started offering rides to to everyone.
Speaker 3:They were doing they. Yeah, it says uh, the robo taxis initially were only available to employees in las vegas, uh, before gradually expanding to friends and family members. But now anyone who has the Zoox app is able to request a ride to the five designated locations. Okay, so, yeah, it wasn't open to the general public, Okay, but she was seeing them. They wanted to train them with. I guess they figure if it's their employees and they kill them in a crash.
Speaker 2:They're disposable.
Speaker 3:It's in their contract, right? So yeah, of course they can do it for free because it's owned by Amazon, who owns half the world. So they got really deep pockets. They can subsidize this. And it says they've been testing them for two years in the city. Oh geez.
Speaker 2:So they've been there a while.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Two years of testing. I wonder why so long? Or maybe they run into bumps and they had to fix them, or whatever they probably did.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it said that once they do begin charging for rides, it's uh, I said prices will be comparable to traditional taxis and, uh, ride share services like Well, you can't say traditional taxis, because traditional taxis back in the way of five mile ride.
Speaker 2:It costs you a hundred bucks. You know what I mean.
Speaker 3:But well, I'm surprised.
Speaker 2:Uh, they're cool looking little. Yeah, I mean, honestly, if, if you know, when we flew to nashville or whatever and we took an uber, if there was something like that that was gonna, I would rather I mean we talked about I'd rather take the non-driver, I think it would be fun, it'd be comfortable, I wouldn't have to make small talk. You know, um, I, I would guess the air conditioning's on, because what was three to four of our ubers we had no air conditioning, uh, down in nashville. You know what I mean. So it's like I, I would love this, I, I'm looking forward to this. Um, I think it's going to be great for, especially in a tourist area like the street, yeah, something like that.
Speaker 3:So, yeah, this works. You know, I'm sure it works pretty good in, you know, las vegas, there in the entertainment area, um, I would think, um, you know, they could have a. They'd have a small loop down somewhere off of broadway. That would probably work pretty well. Yeah, for the same thing. Uh, I don't know how, I don't know. You know, obviously don't know how, where I'd work if it's, you know, it's a 20 mile trip or something like that.
Speaker 2:A little bit different. I mean, those are, what are those vehicles we? I mean, are they like?
Speaker 3:they, they, actually they, they make them.
Speaker 2:Oh, Amazon makes them.
Speaker 3:Yeah, hold on here, I've got it highlighted. It says it hopes to manufacture as many as 10,000 robo taxis annually so they can expand into other markets. It says they let's see. It says, while Waymo is counting on using driverless technology and vehicles built by traditional automakers, zoox is manufacturing its distinctively designed robo taxis in a former bus factory in Hayward, california, about 25 miles southeast of san francisco. So they're making their own. That's very cool. Amazon can, because they've got gazillions of dollars and you're really looking at a complete redesign.
Speaker 2:That's not a car or a bus.
Speaker 3:It's like you're building that from the ground up right. That is unique, it is a unique looking vehicle and you don't need all the the you know, especially if you're building that from the ground up right.
Speaker 2:That is unique, it is a unique looking vehicle and you don't need all the the, you know, especially if you're doing three miles, you don't need all the crazy suspension. Like they're, so they're, they're really.
Speaker 3:If you look at they're probably just bare bones like a go or not a go-kart, a golf cart yeah I don't think, and I don't think they even have you know steering wheels or anything like that, and probably no airbags, because there's no real.
Speaker 2:I mean, they probably have just seatbelts, I would guess, because they don't, they face each other.
Speaker 3:Yes, they do face. So two people riding backwards, two people riding facing forward.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so they probably don't. Yeah. So it's just like a souped up golf cart, yeah, with obviously a lot of tech in it. You know, if you think about the AI part of it and stuff.
Speaker 3:So yeah, Zooks, do not have traditional steering wheels or brake pedals.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah. So it's a glorified golf cart, I mean. I'm saying that obviously has a lot of tech in it An autonomous golf cart. Yeah, an autonomous golf cart. Right, that's very cool, cool. I'm excited for them to come around. Um, yeah, I don't think they'll be in clear water in 2026, but um, probably not, who knows all right, what's up, so maybe waymo will.
Speaker 2:Yeah, right, uh, I want to do one more and then the rest going to patreon. Then, uh, again, don't forget, lair is going to talk about lift and waymo in nashville. He's got some news on that, uh, so this is interesting. Uh, this is from the uk, amazon flex. A delivery partner has sent an amazon flex substitution request. You, um, the block is blah, blah, blah. Let them know if you're available to accept this delivery block by tapping the accept block button below. If you choose to complete this block, the delivery partner who sent you the substitution request you request will be responsible for paying you for your delivery services. So that part's weird. Like, am I venmoing you the hundred and some odd dollars or is this something like a subcontracting model that they're doing in in the uk with flex? Who even knew that there was flex in the uk, by the way? I I didn't even know that was a thing.
Speaker 3:Um, yeah, I've never thought about it. I mean it's not surprising.
Speaker 2:I'm sure they have it's not surprising, but I've never like I said, I've never thought about it. You know when you're in your bitch.
Speaker 2:We're so US centric when we think Well, I mean even in Reddit and stuff like in the groups I don't see anybody talk about like I'm in the UK, like I don't. I don't see that very often. So I wonder if this is some sort of subcontractor model, you know, like Uber has Uber fleets, so who knows? I mean it could be a cool thing, but, um, yeah, I don't know if anyone has any information on it, but I was hoping. You know, bubble sue always comes in clutch for this. But who do we get this from? Did it? Was that faith or gabe in the group.
Speaker 2:I don't know, it doesn't really matter, I just wanted a little bit more information on it. But it'd be kind of cool if you could do that. Like, I got the route but I'm gonna pay. You know, let's say, the route is based, uh, like my last route. I did get a good paying.
Speaker 2:It was, uh, almost 30 bucks an hour for my yeah for my Saturday route, which was wild because those routes were going for like 21 all day and I, I'm like I'm not doing for 21,. But anyways, if you get it for 30 and you, you, you know, uh, pay this guy 15 an hour and you keep the profit, I don't know, um, it's, it's an interesting thing. It's like a, it's like a DSP, but like a subcontracting thing. So, yeah, it's pretty cool. All right, thank you, oh, larry. What are you doing this weekend? Anything, any gig work.
