31 - We Work Here Now: Tales from the Self-Checkout Trenches

In this episode, the full time debut of Rico Savage is upon us!  From his "Darkest Corner" Rico breaks down the everyday madness of self-checkout culture and why it somehow became everyone’s problem. We trade stories about getting flagged by machines, accidentally stealing items, and the unspoken expectation that customers now double as unpaid cashiers. Rico jumps in with some real talk about automation, jobs disappearing, and how replacing people with screens feels less “efficient” and more disrespectful.

The conversation drifts into personal stories and cultural side quests, including jokes about holidays, MLK Day, and how different communities treat certain traditions. It’s mostly laughs, but we still poke at bigger questions—what self-checkout says about consumer behavior, accountability, and whether convenience has gone too far.

From there, we spiral into broader life observations: weird public interactions, regional differences, and the kind of situations you only experience out in the wild. Keller shares a wild story that turns into a larger conversation about public spaces, responsibility, and how desensitized people have become. We wrap things up with life updates, random tangents, and the usual back-and-forth that makes it feel less like a podcast and more like a group chat with microphones. It’s funny, honest, and packed with the kind of takes you only get when the guys really get rolling.

Jeremy (00:00.096)
you accumulate points or whatever for every dollar you spend it's worth like a penny or some dumb shit like that and then towards the end once you get all your points you can go to the little smart screen and select the items that you want to steal and then you get to get those for free as payment for scanning yourself out you'll account for the inventory and then you'll get to keep the shit because you were honest and you just picked what you wanted to steal

And then you know you'd also slip something in your pocket that no one knew about. However, you wouldn't do that as often because you would feel honest.

Keller (00:37.742)
You know, they already have rewards programs.

Mike (00:40.088)
We got the Felon Rewards Program. Exactly. That's what I just going to say.

Keller (00:43.586)
They already have the rewards programs you you fucking idiots. You put in your phone number, you get rewards. It adds up the more you buy.

Jeremy (00:48.878)

Rico (01:18.702)
Should I even respond? That's what I want. Should I respond? Well, I am Rico, but I wouldn't say I'm queer. On some things, on some things, I will say. Okay. I do like, I do like my soap operas, you know.

What's up to you?

Keller (01:35.307)
the bold and the beautiful.

Like, sands through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives. I mean, was my childhood.

Jeremy (01:52.546)
You had an eventful childhood, man. They based that off your life.

Mike (01:56.162)
When I was, when I was, when I was sick home from school, it was prices, right. And then it went right into my mom's soap operas. And she watched, she watched days of our lives.

My dad's a secret assassin and my uncle's trying to kill him.

Mike (02:11.436)
Yeah.

Keller (02:13.174)
Is that how the show goes? yeah. Never watched one. I actually saw like a bit of one and it was like some lady and there was like a doll, but it was alive and a new magic or some shit. I don't fucking know. I was like, what the fuck is this?

Mike (02:31.454)
Everybody's sleeping with each other and they've had numerous relationships on and off for the last 50 years.

Rico (02:37.774)
Yeah, that's like the Senate. They stay in those roles and they just rotate them. I was really in a bad position when I graduated high school, like six months after I graduated high school. It was me and my grandma watching all my children before we to go pick up the kids. And it was like the best time of my life. was like, grandma, we got to watch it. It was like came on at one o'clock and I knew all the characters, all that.

Mike (03:27.502)
It's my soaps. watched my I didn't understand what a soap opera was and do know why they're called soap operas? Because when they would originally air the product placement was all soap products because it was all women at home, housekeepers and know housewives.

Rico (06:38.542)
It was like having crack sessions and it never ended. Cause the face had.

Keller (06:44.238)

Mike (06:45.774)

Cat in the head ass.

Rico (07:10.318)
If you didn't have no real comeback those got violent real quick

Keller (07:16.81)
I just throw out the most random shit and everybody bust out laughing. They never heard nothing like that.

Jeremy (07:21.742)
You'll Martin Luther King not posting on the right fucking day head ass

Rico (07:26.478)
That motherfucker posted the date.

Keller (07:28.398)
No I didn't. He's getting on.

Jeremy (07:32.046)
Ain't no fucking dream, he was sleeping.

Rico (07:35.533)
You slip on that dream, can tell you that.

Mike (07:41.302)
Jeremy (07:41.422)
Ugh.

Keller (07:42.402)
But it's ready for next year. I'm just saying.

At least it comes around once a year.

Rico (07:50.318)
Hey, we could use it for black history, but right around the corner.

Jeremy (07:56.246)
That's why we had to bring Rico onto the show.

Keller (08:02.338)
balance Jeremy's racism.

Jeremy (08:04.936)
No. How have I always depicted as racist when you're the one doing the racist shit, you forget an important black holiday.

Keller (08:15.854)
No, I didn't. I made the picture. I just imposed it. You didn't even ask about it. You didn't even ask about it. You at one of your white people meetings.

Jeremy (08:25.334)
Opt.

Rico (08:27.15)
KKK.

Jeremy (08:28.526)
Well, we had to bring Rico on and you've got Juneteenth to get it right.

Rico (08:33.41)
He got to February 1st.

Keller (08:37.774)
Jesus Jesus on a crispy cracker

Mike (08:41.112)
Shall we go to the darkest corners?

Rico (08:43.458)
Let's go to the darkest corner, baby. I like that voice. Y'all like that voice? I like that voice. That's my very white voice.

Keller (08:51.116)
Can't get enough of your love,

Rico (08:52.814)
Okay. Ooh, I like that. I like that boy. Okay. The darkest corner. My first rent is the self cash out at a grocery store. Why am I working a second job? Right? I come in to get my meat, my food, all this, and lo and behold, I got to put on my apron.

And cash out, I'm tired already. I don't understand why they do this. It's quicker, yeah, but I don't trust motherfuckers anyway. You know people are still like. I seen personally, my nephew Paco, who I be talking about a lot, stole right in front of my face. He did not scan none of the Kool-Aid packages, none.

Jeremy (09:45.742)
Wait, wait, wait, w- Can't you tell the segment without ratting someone out, you fucking rat-

Keller (09:51.886)
You

Rico (09:53.198)
Listen, I'm not ratting him out as much as it's an example of why they shouldn't do this. They are losing money every scan. I guarantee you ain't nobody being that truthful. I'm not paying $250 for something I had to scan. Like, I don't trust myself. So why do they do this?

Keller (10:15.222)
It balances out because you pay somebody $15 an hour to scan your stuff or somebody steals 15 packets of Kool-Aid. That's only like a couple bucks versus $15.

Rico (10:29.55)
Well, how do you feel about it when you go in there and you have to, assuming you guys, know, Keller, you have kids, so I'm pretty sure your grocery list is huge. You don't wanna go in there and scan all that shit.

Keller (10:42.474)
I go to the open register with a person.

Rico (10:45.868)
is that that's what I do that every time. I don't care what I got. I do it every time. Cause I don't work there, right? That's not my job. If I wanted to apply there, I apply there.

Mike (10:55.602)
five items or less. That's the only way I go to self checkout six true fucking right to the

Rico (11:05.346)
Well, you withhold items when you do check out? Do you withhold items? This is a safe space. This is a safe space.

Mike (11:15.276)
No, it's not. It's definitely a public space and I'm not self-incriminating myself.

Rico (11:19.758)
yeah, great. They're gonna come looking for you, Mike.

Keller (11:25.07)
But he doesn't do he doesn't do Kool-Aid he's more of a crystal light

Mike (11:30.229)
I am actually.

Rico (11:32.642)
Those things would be buggy-baggy.

Mike (11:34.71)
I had to have crystal lights sitting in my fridge.

Rico (11:37.048)
Jeremy, we grew up in the same neighborhood. So I'm pretty sure if I asked you.

Jeremy (11:44.064)
What you want to talk about the time where we got in trouble at family dollar behind my

Rico (11:48.096)
I want to talk about that. I just want to talk about the self checkouts. It's even in Dollar General's. It's everywhere. It's at gas stations.

Jeremy (11:58.626)
Yeah, you know motherfuckers aren't honest there.

Rico (12:01.71)
I think that they can't open the pump.

Jeremy (12:04.846)
You know what pisses me off about the sec self checkout at Walmart specifically is it will ask you do you want a text receipt an email receipt or a papered receipt and God forbid you select one of the two that doesn't physically give you one and you go to the gate and little $3 an hour piece of shit. Hey, I need to see your receipt. Well, I don't fucking have one do

Rico (12:34.306)
They just watched me do the whole transaction. They need to be working to register. Why are you... This is why I almost got in a fight with one of those guys. Cause it's like, you just saw me. You saw me. It's no way. These things need to be regulated because I don't even like when they sit there and watch me bag my own stuff. It's disrespectful. I didn't choose this job. You did.

Motherfuckers.

Mike (13:07.822)
Bill Burr's got a good take on this.

Rico (13:10.85)
He goes, yeah, I heard his.

Mike (13:12.632)
Yeah, he goes up to the self-check. He's like, guess what? Nobody wants to ring me up.

Rico (13:17.07)
See ya. See, we have some dignity because we still go and we still do the whole, you know, bring up and all like that. But I don't trust myself enough to go up there with a grocery cart full of shit and be like, yeah, I'm gonna scan each and every one.

Mike (13:40.078)
I'm sure I forgot one or two things every now and again like You know

Jeremy (13:44.19)
I know I did.

Keller (13:47.438)
Never.

Rico (13:49.134)
this guy. He never forgot. Yo, he's a saint. Saint Keller.

Jeremy (13:55.63)
You ever peel a $3 label off of some hamburger meat and slap it on a $15 price? Get that $10 pounds of hamburger meat for three bucks.

Keller (14:01.902)
No.

Keller (14:09.09)
No.

Rico (14:09.45)
It is scanned though, it is scanned, technically speaking.

Jeremy (14:12.814)
scan up as marshmallows or whatever the fuck I grab.

Keller (14:16.182)
Can I tell you about the time I worked in the meat department at Winn-Dixie? And I had them cut up like probably like a foot and a half tall pile of Delmonico steaks. And I paid $4.23 for them.

Rico (14:20.974)
cut through the middle of your mouth.

Rico (14:37.358)
Oh, that's a highway robbery.

Keller (14:39.995)
And the lady, she came up to me while I was ringing them up. She's like, man, they must have a real sale on stakes. I'm like, they sure do.

Jeremy (14:49.326)
You

Keller (14:53.986)
We were probably grilling for about four or five hours, all those steaks.

Mike (14:58.306)
Winn-Dixie, you can find this man in North Carolina at...

Rico (15:02.414)
Hehehehehe

Keller (15:05.07)
been a long time.

Rico (15:06.488)
My final moral of that segment is America, we need jobs. We do not need more self-checkout machines.

Mike (15:17.422)
Your chicken are cured.

Keller (15:18.146)
Robot.

Jeremy (15:19.764)
It took a nu-

Rico (15:22.35)
They're taking our jobs and giving it to regular people. That's what they're doing. But we're not getting paid for it. And I feel like that's disrespectful. Why make me do labor and not pay me? See, that's one thing we won't do, America. All right.

Keller (15:28.846)
games.

Keller (15:39.458)
Well, they've already done that.

Mike (15:44.343)
my god.

Rico (15:46.654)
On like two days after Martin Luther King Day, Jesus Christ, my God. I know. Who the person that just-

Keller (15:51.934)
I'm saying I'm behind this.

Jeremy (15:55.593)
And you forgot to post.

Rico (15:58.53)
I ain't gonna say forgot, that sounded intentional. I don't show real.

Jeremy (16:02.734)
Keep calling me the racist.

Keller (16:05.72)
No, I'm just saying they can't go back to that. They got to get people in there. That's what I'm saying, man.

Rico (16:12.122)
Very kinesis understand that this is a highway robbery that Self-checkout might cost more in the end in the long run. I think that the bottom line is that you're losing money both ends

Mike (16:27.039)
How though?

Rico (16:28.515)
Well.

Jeremy (16:29.134)
Because I'm stealing.

Mike (16:30.9)
Yeah, yeah.

Rico (16:33.944)
The maintenance on the actual register, the actual register, I've seen that go haywire. You go there and it's like five of them down anyway. what the, like you're end up opening up a register with a person anyway because when I go there, there's like four lines. Two of them are man operated and the other two are self checkout and then one lane is completely down because all three or four are not working.

Your bottom line is going out the window. You're going to end up. I disagree.

Mike (17:10.348)
I think I I subscribe to the buy now cry now you spend the money now you're going to cry for a minute, but in the long run, it's going to benefit you. think spending the money on the self checkout, you know, reduces, you know, reduces your labor costs. It reduces your safety costs, you know, insurance, things like that. So in long-term, I think you do make up for it.

Yeah, you're going to spend, you know, whatever it is, you 15, 20 grand per register or whatever the equipment costs. I think you pick up for it pretty quickly.

Jeremy (17:46.742)
I'd have to agree there. It is very profitable and very intelligent for corporations. However, it completely fucks us.

Keller (17:57.858)
think we should get a bigger discount by doing it. In turn, I don't think we see any discount.

Rico (18:04.418)
Well, the discount is probably like how all of us feel doing it. Like, you know what? I don't think I should pay full price because I have to scan my own shit. So I'm going to not pay for this or I'm not going to scan that. And I would say it would be profitable if all of them would be working. That every time I go to any one of these stores, there's always about four or five of them down and you're not getting maximum.

output that way. You're really like hindering yourself. you have, if it was down and then there was other registers open, then okay, but they're not doing that. Like, at least to the ones I go to.

Jeremy (18:44.756)
you accumulate points or whatever for every dollar you spend it's worth like a penny or some dumb shit like that and then towards the end once you get all your points you can go to the little smart screen and select the items that you want to steal and then you get to get those for free as payment for scanning yourself out you'll account for the inventory and then you'll get to keep the shit because you were honest and you just picked what you wanted to steal

And then you know you'd also slip something in your pocket that no one knew about. However, you wouldn't do that as often because you would feel honest.

Keller (19:22.422)
You know, they already have rewards programs.

Mike (19:24.834)
Got the felon rewards programs exactly. That's what I just gonna say.

Keller (19:28.258)
They already have the rewards programs. You you fucking idiots.

Rico (19:34.094)
You

Keller (19:36.43)
You put in your phone number you get rewards it adds up the more you buy

Rico (19:42.606)
Before it was a thing, I heard that they was going to charge, at least Walmart was going to charge their members a flat fee to use a self checkout. And it was only for them. If you went to Walmart. Yeah, before it popped out, they was going to do that. And I was like, and I think it was like $59 a year to be a member at the time. And I was like, I guess I want me to go into Walmart. Never again.

Keller (20:07.99)
I have a theory about Walmart. I think Walmart is either... Well, honestly, I think they're like a meth lab. I think there's a secret Walmart meth lab somewhere in Walmart. Why else is there so many meth heads outside of Walmart?

You

Rico (20:30.907)
What?

Jeremy (20:33.838)
Hang on, I kind of like this.

Rico (20:36.312)
Yeah. That's it.

Mike (20:36.862)
Yeah, please elaborate.

Keller (20:39.084)
Yeah, see there. That's where you spawn when you die and you just start over at the in the parking lot of Wal-Mart or there's meth. Always meth, because I go to Wal-Mart, especially during the holidays, and there was like meth heads all around, all over their gas stations, all over the front of Wal-Mart everywhere. It's meth. Why would they stay there if there's no meth there?

Mike (21:06.498)
Maybe it's like that's their commissary. You know, that's where the trade goes down. I don't know.

Rico (21:13.184)
Rico is very confused right now. I have not seen meth heads at Walmart. This must be a Walmart where you're at.

Keller (21:20.502)
No, because you're in the hood, so you have crack head. Yeah. They still just crack there.

Jeremy (21:23.202)
Yeah.

Rico (21:26.007)
Yeah, crackheads, Methodist is definitely a...

Keller (21:32.29)
I'm in the mountains. There's It changes with every Walmart locations. Just like if you go to a Walmart in Mexico, it's mostly like beans and rice and corn and stuff like that. It's like big barrels of beans.

Rico (21:46.094)
The other person needs an HR department.

Keller (21:48.662)
It's true. Just like in Texas, like the H-E-B, their locations, have like huge quantities of beans, different rices, like in barrels and you just scoop the shit out of their bag.

Jeremy (22:01.646)
Christ, we're gonna need to get a Hispanic member.

Mike (22:04.824)
you

Rico (22:08.512)
It's an offset.

Mike (22:10.122)
change my name to Miguel. We'll be all right.

Rico (22:12.75)
Hey, I got Rico covered, Got part of it.

Jeremy (22:17.134)
Just so the audience knows, Rico gave us all permission to say the N-word. We're just waiting to see who says it first.

Keller (22:24.997)
Yeah.

Rico (22:26.644)
man. That's right. And then Rico will also be on the hotline to see who will want to beat their ass afterwards.

Jeremy (22:33.41)
Fair enough.

Keller (22:35.278)
I'll be right there posting that Martin Luther King post.

Jeremy (22:40.255)
in February.

Rico (22:40.974)
I have a dream to beat your ass

Keller (22:44.6)
Does anybody else have any conspiracies against Walmart?

Jeremy (22:47.822)
don't know, but there's gotta be a major corporation involved with meth. Breaking Bad was trying to tell us something.

Rico (22:55.416)
Yeah, if you took anything from Breaking Bad, it's the corporations.

Mike (22:59.082)
It's called Pharma and Ritalin.

Rico (23:01.358)
Exactly.

Jeremy (23:02.51)
I don't know. It's more fun to think it's Walmart.

Rico (23:05.89)
Well, the theory behind Breaking Bad is that it's, well, Breaking Bad is directly the reason Walking Dead happened because of Walker White.

Jeremy (23:17.698)
You what I just realized? There's no K-Marts anymore and you can hardly find Ecstasy 2.

Keller (23:27.202)
light special.

Rico (23:29.944)
No, there's a lot of targets. Target is still surviving. Target, sorry.

Keller (23:33.806)
No, they're making the shooters.

Jeremy (23:37.31)
This is our season premiere, so they're catching up with us, but we gotta catch up with each other. We've kind of been apart for a little bit. Miss you guys. What have you two fuckers been up to?

Keller (23:54.127)
man. man.

Mike (23:58.104)
whole life reset up there.

Jeremy (24:00.8)
Lay it on us, Keller. Lay it on us.

Keller (24:05.046)
Well, while y'all have been gone, I've had some crazy shit happen.

Jeremy (24:11.404)
Yeah, you shitting any laundry mats?

Keller (24:14.368)
No, it involved a method. Really? Yes. so I was at Walmart. That's where the whole meth thing happened.

Mike (24:27.458)
Now it's all making sense.

Keller (24:31.018)
I saw a guy up there and he looked like he was ODing. And I was like, holy shit. So I called out or pulled out my cell phone. I called 911. I was like, there's a, there's this man. He's over here. I think he's ODing. I think he's on meth. And she's like, slow down, slow down. And I kept on like trying to slow down. Like, I think he's dying. He's overdosing. He's on meth. And she's like, you got to be calm. Talk clearly.

So then I ended up rapping to her because I was like, M-E-T-H-O-D, man.

Jeremy (25:09.774)
So he was ODing and you were having a fucking stroke?

Keller (25:17.511)
M-E-T-H-O-D,

never happen.

Mike (25:23.742)
Really?

Keller (25:27.342)
No, I just been busy at home moving shit around. Pick this shit up. Same old shit. None of that happened.

Rico (25:38.061)

Rico (25:41.216)

Jeremy (25:47.746)
Boom. I believed you first.

Rico (25:50.028)
Hey, OD. He OD-ish-y-y-y. Or least you tried, I guess. That counts for something.

Keller (25:50.702)
Man

Jeremy (25:59.352)
Well

Jeremy (26:02.722)
What about you?

Keller (26:04.878)
Man, you know, just

Mike (26:05.046)
We'll say, playing video games and working hard, right now I am, we're actually shooting on location out here in, the panhandle of Florida. am out, out here for work and, doing a remote session coming live from Navar beach, right on the, right on the literally right on the water.

Keller (26:31.714)
What was that, Beach?

Mike (26:32.834)
The var, N-A-V-A-R-R-E.

Jeremy (26:36.468)
Not everything revolves around that word, Keller.

Keller (26:40.394)
I was just making sure that Rico wasn't going to come after you. I thought you were trying to slip it in there.

Rico (26:46.958)
Listen when they say in I'm watching just just know Anything in the bar beach

Jeremy (27:02.218)
necrophilia

Mike (27:02.958)

Mike (27:13.458)
things are good things are good out here out here for the night just doing my thing I got a five and a half hour drive back home tomorrow it's gonna be fun

Jeremy (27:24.43)
So when Mike says on location, he means his location. He is there. We are on location at our respective locations. Yes. I'm still in my apartment. Nothing has changed. Yeah, all kinds of not changed. Nope.

Keller (27:42.22)
No, change. Nothing changed.

Jeremy (27:44.01)
Nuts and bolts and...

Rico (27:45.934)
Can you make a change? I don't think that's possible.

Jeremy (27:48.934)
You can nut in your hand and rub it on a chain. It's probably more effective. But anyway, just living life. Nutting everywhere. Some leaves outside. The maintenance is still going to take care of it. It's not my problem.

Keller (28:04.014)
in other news, I for the first time ever have just bought salt and a snow shovel.

We're supposed to get some snow this coming Saturday. Nice. And Sunday.

Rico (28:22.018)
And that was it.

Jeremy (28:24.334)
You don't want a flamethrower?

Keller (28:26.158)
About, they said, I don't know, cause my brother-in-law, told me like 10 to 11 inches, then my wife says like five inches and I don't know.

Rico (28:39.116)
Well, color just go outside, butt ass naked and just like plow down and then just measure it that way.

Keller (28:46.606)
I'll just try to take my pants off and measure it that way.

Jeremy (28:51.374)
was gonna be like, how does your wife know what five inches is?

Keller (28:55.214)
Mm-mm.

Jeremy (28:57.294)
Then I remembered that time we talked to her and told her it's double what your penis is.

Rico (29:03.446)
You

Keller (29:06.062)
Accurate.

Mike (29:10.094)
Is that going to be on the weekend Keller? Yeah. man. That's the kids are going to have the kids ever had a real snow day.

Keller (29:17.614)
Yeah. Well, they had it last year when we lived in Granite, then it snowed a lot and then stuck around too. And they were out there playing in it. But I was trying to find them some sleds that go down the hills. Yeah. But I couldn't find any. So I'm just going to take them and throw them and let them slide.

Jeremy (29:40.652)
You got inner tube?

Keller (29:42.966)
Inner tubes? Yeah. Like, I got the cheap ones that go in the pool. Yeah, yeah. That'll work. Yeah, that'll work.

Rico (29:50.958)

Mike (29:53.55)
Absolutely.

Rico (29:54.318)
Those never work.

Rico (29:58.39)
I got stuck one time, like my whole butt got stuck in those and I was going down the river and it was very scary and traumatic.

Keller (30:06.071)
You need a husky tube. Husky.

Rico (30:08.102)
Who? Now I was I was pretty sure that I could fit the ones that was there. I got. At that time, was three forty, was three forty and I thought I could do.

Keller (30:15.982)
Your ass got stuck, so obviously you did.

Keller (30:22.924)
You didn't need a Husky. You needed a Mack truck to.

Rico (30:31.554)
very embarrassing and traumatic color.

Keller (30:34.158)
before you went down is you roll out.

Rico (30:37.71)
I sat on the inner tube and I thought it was gonna be nice and easy and you know, I thought getting stuck would be a good thing. So I'm to get, so I'll be moving. It wasn't a good thing.

Jeremy (30:53.058)

Yeah.

Rico (33:56.974)
I want you to know also as a podcaster, I'm a big fan of the show myself. I listened to season one and two and I loved it. There was a couple of episodes where I was kind of like, but.

Keller (34:13.293)
Jeremy (34:14.072)
Well, I mean, that's part of why we had to bring you on, man. It's because you you kept sending us dick over and over and over until we brought you on and now you've stopped. So we appreciate that.

Rico (34:27.787)
I just mainly wanted to debate with Keller.

Jeremy (34:30.146)

Keller (34:33.934)
I don't do debates.

Keller (34:40.353)

Rico (34:44.226)
You know what? I've told you that confidence, all right?

Keller (34:52.386)
