Lydia is actually out sick today, so she is not feeling well. KP's been doing double duty today. What's up? Working very hard. KP just moved into a new apartment. Did you guys hear about that? I did. I want to see some pictures of it. I would love to show you pictures. I'm getting very cozy. Her fourth apartment in the last four years. Yes. By the way, are you going to do this every year you're going to move to a new place? That's the goal. No. It's not, actually. I really want to stay in one place for a long time, but I had the craziest move. It was insane. We were all off for the 4th of July, like the whole week. I took off a couple of days to move and had the worst movers I have ever. I actually, I take it back, I've never had movers. This was to save my stress because instead of paying my friends with beer and pizza, I just wanted to pay movers and two men in a truck? No, it was some friend's uncle and I didn't realize that until they showed up with an uncle and two kids. Wait, what do you mean by that, an uncle and two kids? This guy showed up with his kids and I'm like, oh, are you the movers? He's like, yeah. Like, oh. Was it like a legit moving company? No. They pulled up at a U-Haul. Wait, but you called the book it and it seemed like it was a legit place. They sent me like a moving contract and everything and I like looked it over it. But I had pre-packed everything, pre-boxed everything, wrapped, disassembled, all of it was in the center of my apartment for them to just pick up and carry to their truck. They quoted me for three hours. These dudes stayed four, six hours. Did you have to pay for the extra? Yes. What? And I was livid. But I couldn't show them that I was livid because they were taking all of my things and putting it in the truck and I didn't want them to drive away in their U-Haul and never come back. Yeah. So I couldn't tell them to hurry. Like, how do you tell somebody that they're going too slow? You don't. You know? You passive aggressively say, what time do we think we're going to be heading to the new place? Do it. I did that a couple times and every time it would be, yeah, I think it's going to be a little bit longer than we expected. Okay. Yeah. It'd be so mad. Oh, I was, I didn't know what to do because all of, I, I was actually moving alone. It was just me. And then I had one of my really good friends last minute helped me. So she was there kind of with me monitoring the situation. But if Mama Capy was there, they would have had a fire under their ass. How, how old are these kids that we're talking about? I would say like 16. And that's not a kid, but in, in someone that's moving like valuables and like, sure, when you hire movers, you're looking for somebody experience to move your belongings and all your stuff. Yeah. Like I went out into my hallway and there were mirrors that were not wrapped. They were about to put it into the truck and I'm like, are you going to wrap my mirror? And they're like, yeah, yeah, yeah. We got it. And then, and this is not me trying to be rude or anything. I mean, people could have to have experience to get experience, but I was paying a lot for an experience. Yeah. I was walking up the stairs and I just hear cool, cool, cool, cool, cool and I go up to the top and I see the kid with the box in his hands. He was each step pulling the box down and a time and I said, I said, Hey, and he's like, Hey, like, what's a map box? And he's like, Oh, it's just his gym bag. Like, yeah, that probably wouldn't assume that that's the only thing that's in it. My camera equipment's there. So probably pick that up and it was actually. So it was just like a series of events and then there's more, but this is the best part and you're going to love this. I think the reason the time was so long was because each one of them were taking 20 minute potty breaks every hour to go number two in my bathroom, in your bathroom. Yes, which I understand like if you have movers or what are if you, whatever, if you really have to go, you got to go. I do. My neighborhood. You need to use a toilet. Starbucks down the street. Yeah. I don't know. Like when you move, you want your place clean when you leave, if you hired somebody to clean it already or maybe you cleaned it to move out, you don't want people blowing up your toilet. Nobody, you don't want the, you know, the movers to be the first one to drop a deuce in your toilet. Exactly. Like, come on, man. I wanted to do that. That's crazy. Come on, man. It's terrible. It was like the worst dress of my life and then he gave me the bill and I'm like, this is the bill for being just KP, I guess. You do often have KP moments like that, don't you? All the time. All the time. I don't know. I feel like, um, you don't know until you know, and in that situation, I learned that I am never ever hiring anybody. Come on. To move my stuff with that. Come on, man. Knowing that they're professional. See, I wonder, like yesterday, I had no idea until we talked about it, and I'll show you yesterday that that restaurants no longer have delivery folks. They like, I'll source it to Dordin. Most of them. So I wonder, is that the same thing with this moving company where they are? Yeah. That might be the case. Like, yeah, they find some guys to work for them off Craigslist. Yeah, I asked him, I asked the dude, I'm like, so how long have you been doing this? And he's like, oh, I used to work for a moving company. And now I've owned my own company for five years. I got my own truck that I go get at the gas station down the street, you all. They charged me a truck fee and maybe that's normal. Maybe not. And I'm like, bro, you literally charged me twice the amount as if I were to hire, like, if I were to get my own U-Haul, I would have paid less. You know what their trucks? The truck fee was exactly the U-Haul and him to go to McDonald's for his lunch during the day. And they did. They said they told me they didn't even tell me they were going to take a lunch. They go, they told me, oh, yeah, we're just going to go to Jersey Mike, so we'll come back in like an hour. And I'm like, and I'm your question. I hate this voice. I love you. I love you. Thanks for your good choice. Yeah. Again, I understand people have to eat, but we, I quoted, I was quoted for three hours total. And now you're taking a mid six hour break. They didn't charge you for the, they didn't charge you for the lunch. And I made you to confirm with, I was like, so you're leaving right now. Let me talk to the movers real quick. 30. However, how long is, are you going to be taking a break for, give or, give or take 45 minutes depending on if they have honey ham lines a bit long, excuse me, sir. Are you from downriver? You sound like you have a downriver. Oh, no. No, no, I'm. Let me guess. Hold on Trenton. Maybe Trenton? Where are you from? No, Chelsea. Oh, Chelsea. Oh, go with that. That makes sense. There. That's a little. Come on. I love that. I can't believe that you had to deal with this. I, that, by the way, you can tell that mama KP was probably out of town or something. Yeah, she does. Because if mama KP grabbed the horns and this one, KP's mother for those things didn't get that mama KP is KP's mom. She would have those. She's a ball buster. Mr. Movers, you would have had your ass whooped. Yeah, he would have. I would have been worried about having to continue moving by myself, like them leaving like being like, I'm out of here with, with having five siblings. What the hell do you need movers for? You just call brothers and stuff. My siblings are so over moving me. Well, you got to stop moving my heart to tell him to do it. No, but you needed to get out of that place that you were in. I know. But they all work. It was Monday. That was the only time that I could take off because we were off as a whole show. Do you know these people that that move from place to place? I, well, obviously it's like they're almost like gypsies, but you're, it's almost like they're running from the law. Like, I feel like K.P. I've had so many apartments that it feels like your bills catch up to you in the mail at all. Uh, never. That's why I keep moving. You know what it is, though? Every time your lease comes up, the way that your rate goes, astronaut, yeah, that's where the roof from lease to lease is insane. Really? It's so insane. So, so apartment living and, and uh, you know, renting and stuff is kind of a pain in the ass. Last time at my last apartment, my rent went up four hundred dollars a month from lease to lease. Wow. That's a significant difference. Yeah. That's crazy. Yeah. My lease went up for my current place and we were moving downtown. So I'm like, I might as well just move closer to where we're going to be. Yeah. So one day. She didn't access to the move because you remember the last time she did. Yeah. Remember the last time you access to help you move? Yeah. And the only person that helped me was Zach. Yeah. So it's kind of. He broke his back. I hope you move again. Oh God. You are such a sweetie. I didn't want to ask Zach. I really didn't. Don't ask us. Because then my grandma would have made you move more furniture. Kevin's got. Kevin's got Chipotle to go to. I got a golf game to go to. Megan's got to segue some stuff at the station. Always. Shit. Shit. I always say, say the kids have something, you know what I mean? Somebody asked you to move. Heaven. What did you want to say? Hi. Um, I've moved quite a few times in the past 10 years and every time I hire movers. I always tell them when I get there the faster you get this done, the bigger your tip. And they always just like hustle and get it done quickly. I wish I would have said that. That would have been such a good motivator. That actually is really smart. And do you find that they legit like move stuff fast knowing that they're going to get a little extra money? Oh yeah. Like they'll quote me like four hours and they'll be done in like three, three and a half. God, that is so smart. Oh, I wish. Yeah. How does it go from three hours to six? And two, like I like to take care of them, like, if it's done, like, I'm trying to, you know, not pay all this money because I just moved two weeks ago and it was one sixty six an hour. So I was like, you want this money or you want me to pay them like what did you pay an hour? They were charging me one fifteen hour. Wow. And I'll be honest. My last move. I didn't have movers. I used my brother and my dad and I quickly learned that was a mistake and I should pay the astronomical moving fees because it's so difficult to move. Yeah, it is. I just didn't want anybody getting hurt having to take stuff up, up and down stairs anymore. Like, stop. My favorite is when people that are friends of yours and I don't know heaven if you've ever done this before to friends, when you say to them, hey, move and then at the end, we're going to have like a dinner together and party and everything. I'm like, let's just cut the moving out and have the party. Like, like, why do you have to bribe me with food? And then when I was when I was single, I would literally move thinking I was going to get a piece of ass, like for like single girlfriends and stuff. Never. Never. Not one. Yeah. All of a sudden, her good looking boyfriend would walk in when my big fat butt is sitting there, you know, moving the couches and stuff. I had to move a water bed one time with the water still in it. That's what you had to carry tubes of water. There were tubes of water that they didn't want to release the stuff. What's going on? How you doing, Brett? Hey, good. How you guys doing? Good.
