Here's the thing. If you do want to complain with me, being a Patreon subscriber will help you today. Two out of three, two out of four complaints are from Patreon subscribers. That gets you first dibs on ticked off Tuesday. Patreon.com Jared Freed I will start with my complaint. I have two complaints. The first and, and if you go and listen to last week's Patreon, you'll get a lot of stuff about my move in to my new apartment in Delray Beach. The apartment is wonderful, beautiful, amazing. It with any move. It's annoying. It is. And it's a hard thing to complain about because you have this great new place that you're excited about and you have all these horrific things happening you while that's going on. And you can't complain because someone go, but you got a new place. It's going great. Yeah, it's great. And you don't want people thinking you made a mistake. You don't want someone going. Is the place okay? Did you get tricked into buying a place that wasn't suitable for you? That's not the case. It's just moves suck. Moves are emotional, moves are annoying. The one thing about this place, and I don't know, I need, I know at some point a year from now this will be fine. A year from now I will have figured out a strategy to deal with this issue. But for now, it is a complaint that is really getting to me. This whole building that I'm in has key card access. So think of a card that the hotel would give you to get into the room. Now sometimes you stay at a hotel and that key card is to do the front door as well as your room. Maybe after certain hours that you can use the key card. And so the key card life, you get it. Oh, to go to the gym, use the key card. Hey, if you want to go to the, use the pool at the hotel, use the key card. Now imagine that being part of your everyday life, you don't even have a spot in your pockets where key cards go. Like when I stay at a hotel, the key card goes in my back left pocket beneath my notebook that I carry in my back left pocket. So anytime I go back there, it's almost a miracle that the hotel key card is there waiting for me. I don't think my life can handle a full time back left pocket key card being a very important part of my life. Because here's, here's how it goes at this building. You need the key card to get. And there's a gym here, there's a small gym. Getting there, you need it to get into the lobby of your apartment. So you need it to go from the garage into your lobby. Then I need it to go into the elevator. I have to use the key card again to get up to my floor where my apartment is. The elevator opens up directly into the apartment. So yes, I live like a porn star. This is like, you know, very cool. Elevator in the apartment. At first you're like, it's a little weird. Can anyone just show up up here? It's not. You do need the checks and balances that a key card provides. But if I'm to leave this apartment sans key card, I am actually in trouble. There is no way of getting back in. I'll be locked up. And if I leave it at one of those steps, then I'm really screwed. Let's say I go into the lobby and I leave my key card in the garage. You know, you can go back to the garage. Let's say I go into the lobby, leave my key card on the table. That probably wouldn't happen, but I go into the garage. I'm locked out of there. So it's like 30 different doors. 30 is an exaggeration. But we're here in ticked off Tuesday where we can exaggerate. But this key card is just on my mind. And now the options become, do I get more key cards and hide them around the premises so that if I ever leave home without the key card, I'm screwed. Right now I have a key card sitting by the elevator in a little bowl. I have an extra one there. So on my way out, I make sure I have it. I know I'm going to forget it. I know I'm going to have a bad day. That's really what's annoying me. I know this will produce a bad day. And the strategy I have now will not be what I have in a year. And I am almost angry at the bad day that hasn't even happened yet. Because right now the debate is, do I hide key cards all around? Do I put one, like, under like a rock somewhere so that I can find it if I ever get locked out? That's probably not a good solution. Then there's maybe I get a wristband where I like, attach, Like I transfer the fob, the key card onto a fob and wear a wristband. I'm not looking to wear a wristband like I'm hanging out at a Las Vegas pool party for the rest of my life. Do I get a keychain? Keychain is just as bad as a key card, but at least it's attached to something. It's attached to my car keys. So this is all producing a lot of anxiety. That's my first complaint. My second complaint is not apartment related. But if you want more apartment, you know, banter and Fodder, go to Patreon because I'll be talking a lot about the move this week. The other complaint I have is I have a wrangler. I've been pretty happy with the wrangler experience. My issue with the wrangler, the screen, the buttons on the screen are all very small. The whole point of Apple CarPlay and the screen itself is to make entertainment while driving safer. Why on earth would they have buttons on the entertainment center that's created to keep you a safer driver, make you a safer person while driving. Why would they make them smaller than they had to be? Why? What aesthetic are we trying to live by? Why do I have to like take my finger as it moves around and gets, you know, all shaky and finally when I hit it and I got to throw my finger at it 10 times to get it once. This should not be what we're dealing with. If anything, they should be huge and we should get to make them smaller. If anything, they should be so big that we go, whoa, they really worried about our safety. I don't need to be that safe. I got a normal sized finger. I can press it. Let me make, let me reduce it. It is enraging to me that we go from because I'm sure someone's going to say to me, well, you can make them bigger, fine, but let's start it bigger. Let's not start at, oh my God, I just almost ran myself off the road. I better make these apps bigger. On my screen, in the car, it should be, oh my God, this is ridiculous. I should make these smaller. They don't need to be that big. J train podcast@gmail.com J train podcastmail.com if you have a ticked off Tuesday complaint like mine, you can send it in.

This is my ticked off Tuesday submission. So I went out last week and I started a bar tab at a New York City restaurant in midtown. I was having a great time until another bartender comes up to us to tell me that he accidentally gave my card to someone else who is closing their tab. Okay, I can see how that could happen, but when you realize the mistake, do you chase them down? Okay. Meaning some random stranger has my credit card. I locked the card hoping this would be re. Reconciled. I got to say that word, right? I locked the card hoping this would get reconciled the next day and I'd get my card back. But random stranger has tried to use my card twice now. Not once. Twice. Yeah, that once is an accident. Maybe twice is no accident. He. He can't actually charge anything because it's locked. I understand. Once. And then you realize it's not your actual card when the card gets declined. Twice. It's almost a week now. So now I'm going to have to cancel it and get a new one and change every stupid thing that's connected to that card. That's horrible. That is horrible. That is like one of those things that you go, I didn't ask for this. I. A problem has come to my doorstep and now I have to deal with it. I am with you. This is annoying. And you're right. I said it before. You said it, but you wrote it. You. You try it once. Yeah. Oh, this isn't my car. That's not my name. Okay, twice. What are you trying to pull here, dude? Like, are you basically saying, like, you know, the Lord made This accident. So I should use it to my advantage. Like, what kind of crumb bum are you that you are? Like, well, maybe it didn't work the first time. Now I can really. Let me try a different place. Like you're the. To you, a new. A credit card. To me, I can't relate to anyone who gets a credit card that's not theirs and they see it as a huge windfall. That's the annoying part. Like, I don't even know who that person would be. To me, that's like someone very young. That's someone that's like. To me, that's high school mentality. If you're out midtown New York City at a bar, I would assume that the bars I go to have a clientele or a person that's there that goes, oh, the credit card, that sucks for that person. Like, shouldn't we know that if you have someone else's credit card in your possession, you are. That person is having the worst day of your life, of their life. And they feel bad about it and you want to go, let me just. I'll do whatever I can. That doesn't make my day worse. That, that should be the offset. And now canceling the credit card and knowing that there's like, here's the other thing. The amount of places that you kind of have this credit card relationship that is streamlined is now no longer streamlined. You're going to be in a rush to do something, oh, I got to use my card. And then it's going to go, need the code. And you're like, oh, I got a new card. So I haven't memorized the, the, the three digit code on the back yet. Now I have to get used to that new code. And I used to have the old code. Every time this creates a snag in your day, you will think of the worst human alive who got a credit card that is not even theirs and thought, big day for me. Get to spend other people's money. That's something you're reminded of every single time you have to do a credit card and it takes longer than it would have. Yeah, that's. That is a hell I don't want to live in. And I feel horrible for you. J train podcast@gmail.com J train podcastmail.com I like that email because I started off thinking, what else is there to say? But now I like that personally, if I'm to pat myself on the back, that it got to a place of you thinking of this horrific person every time because I Would. I would. If my credit card had to get a new one because someone else didn't abide by the offset personality that I would assume everyone has of. Let me get this back to this person any way I can. And again, that person didn't create this issue was the bartender's fault. So they're thinking, why should I do anything? But then to use it twice. They're actively trying to bring you down. They saw that as a win. Brutal. Let's do another tick. Tough Tuesday from a Patreon subscriber. Feather, Feather. My ticked off Tuesday involves your Chicago show.
