[Bit 1]

Here's the deal.

I feel like no matter what you do, you don't get paid enough for it.

Right?

You feel me?

When I was younger, I was a barista.

And there's something I learned when you work for somebody and you don't get paid a lot.

There's a deal you make between you and the company you work for.

You know this deal.

You don't pay me shit and I fuck around.

That's our deal.

[Bit 2]

When I was a barista, I only made drinks based off the way they were named.

I remember one dude came up.

He was like, "Hey, man, let me get flat white."

I didn't even know he was talking about coffee.

I just got Rebecca out the back.

I said, "Just the only flat white we got."

And that was me as a barista just fucking around.

Next dude, let me get a small Vietnamese.

She's not in today, next person.
