Tim rants about the archaic, arbitrary comedy club pay structure where the same show pays wildly different amounts night to night with no real explanation.
- Being employed in comedy is weird, especially in 2020—people have bosses, get ratted on by waitresses for bad sets, and have to conform to archaic systems.
- Tim questions the comedy club pay structure: why does a Tuesday show pay $25 but Friday shows pay $75 when both have two-drink minimums?
- Tim expresses excitement about Joe's club opening and wanting to escape the pandemic by performing somewhere new rather than falling back into old patterns.
