0:00have you ever changed your name from Brittany to Bob to try to pretend to be a guy or if you are a guy, did you pretend to be a girl for some kind of benefit? 6-0-1-995-1017. This woman has changed her name from Jen to John on Door Dash and you think you know why why don't you take a guess before I play her viral clip. I would have to guess because I've done this with mobile orders at like fast food type places that they will listen to your instructions better. They'll follow directions better if they think it's for a man. Okay, interesting. It's kind of kind of along those lines but here is Jen explaining why she goes by John on Door Dash. I changed my Door Dash name to John because I saw creator on here say that after she switched her name, she started getting bigger portions so I was like okay why not we'll try it. I've always had contact list delivery and when my Door Dash name was Jen, male drivers would sometimes wait for me to come
1:00outside and pick out my food off the porch. They'd wait minutes sometimes. One time the sky was ringing the door but I'll knock down the door. He's like Door Dash, Door Dash, Door Dash and so I was like okay well maybe these people just aren't seeing the instructions. I've even tried putting on the delivery instructions. I have COVID, I can't come outside. Please leave at the door no change. Since switching my name to John, it hasn't happened once. I guess that is a little bit creepy. If the Door Dash is just gonna like hide in the bushes and wait for you to come out so you can get sneak a peek. Yeah, that is terrifyingly creepy. Um, 601-995-1017. So what other scenarios? Have you pretended to be the opposite sex? Did it work? What were you trying to go for? Like what did you think the outcome was gonna be? Call or text the show? What time did I've thought about doing it? But didn't was whenever I was doing like administration type work having to email lots of people. And the only reason I thought about doing it is because I saw something on like Twitter or whatever at the time where it was a male boss who was covering for his female secretary and so
2:07he was using her email account to follow up on stuff. And he realized that the people were not giving her the same respect as they would give him and he felt like it was because it was coming from a woman and not a man. So did he instruct her to pretend to be a man? Yeah, I think from then on he gave her like a male email address so she would get better faster responses for him. 601-995-1017. I can't think of the time that I've pretended to be a woman. I can't think of many a time at a drive-through where I was called, ma'am. But that didn't like really seem to have like I didn't get any benefit from that. No. Other than maybe being incredibly disappointing to whoever the employee was, whatever I pull her out like oh, bummer, it's guy. It's a doughy guy. 601-995-1017. Have you ever pretended to be the opposite sex because you thought it
3:09was going to benefit you in a certain way? 601-995-1017. This lady named Jen is got viral because she changed her name on DoorDash to John because she was sick of her male dashers just waiting for her to come out and get her food. She said specifically leave it on the doorstep. Contactless delivery. That is so creepy, but it does make me want to encourage some of the male A&A family members to change their door dash name to a female. So that way in case there is a creeper, you could surprise them and it's like it's Adam walking out and he thought it was going to be happy. That actually is hilarious. Right? Like you could catch the creepers and kind of get back up. Do that and videotape it. Like the next time I order DoorDash, I haven't done it in a long time but I'm going to and I'm going to answer the door in like a towel. It's up there, fella. Jesse is a former cop and apparently police work has led you to pretend to be a lady. Tell
4:15us about it, Jesse. I used to do it through text so you know when I would have cases, you know, when I was a cop stolen phone, a lot of times we have some kind of video footage and it'd be a guy. And I was like, well, two things usually work. I can text that phone and ask like a girl. Yep. And I was I would say stuff like, oh, I got in trouble at work today because they say my boobs are hanging out. My shirt was too low and they'd be like, hey, what's up, girl? And then they're they're coming right on back. And I'd be like, hey, meet me up here. And then it'd be me. They would know. Oh my god. They wouldn't know what it was. I would catch them all the time. Was that something they taught you in the academy? Or was that just the little tip of the trade that you picked up? It was just yeah, just thing I picked up. My second one was money. I would say like, hey, man, I'm leaving that money in the mailbox. They're like, what mailbox? Catch them like that too. But I mean, it was a, I used to act like the girl all the time. It worked. Money and boobs. It worked. Thank you, Jesse. Appreciate you. That is too funny. Man, that is really funny. I wonder if he shared that with his cop friends or whatever or if his like closing
5:20of cases rate was so much higher than ever. He had to keep that little trick to himself. Gotta keep it a secret.
