Senior year of high school I delivered pizza and KFC (the franchise owner had a Pizza Hut and a KFC across the street, and had both deliver so he could keep drivers busy). It was great because it meant I got to drive my car all the time to make money to buy parts for said car, but it sucked having a really bad smelling car. So having the company actually provide me with a car and gas would have really owned

Who fucking cares?

They should have consulted Neal Stephenson when they designed this.

quote:

The Deliverator's car has enough potential energy packed into its batteries to fire a pound of bacon into the Asteroid Belt. Unlike a bimbo box or a Burb beater, the Deliverator's car unloads that power through gaping, gleaming, polished sphincters... You want to talk contact patches? Your car's tires have tiny contact patches, talk to the asphalt in four places the size of your tongue. The Deliverator's car has big sticky tires with contact patches the size of a fat lady's thighs. The Deliverator is in touch with the road, starts like a bad day, stops on a peseta.
As he scrunches to a stop, the electromechanical hatch on the flank of his car is already opening to reveal his empty pizza slots, the door clicking and folding back in on itself like the wing of a beetle. The slots are waiting. Waiting for hot pizza.

Of course in Snow Crash Hiro Protagonist is delivering pizza for the Mafia, so speed is of the essence.

If they would tie in the GPS with the ordering system that would be sweet. Just enter you order numbers and it plots a route and gives directions.
That oven could probably contain the odor of anchovies, which makes me hurl. That poo poo would linger in my car for hours.

We were a test market for this awful Parmesan cheese pizza. Someone ordered it with anchovies and olives, I put the pizza box in a garbage bag, the garbage bag in a sack, and then put that sack in the extra large warming bag, then put it in the little trunk space under the hatch in my car.

A week later I got a flat tire and had to put the spare on (stored in the same spot) and I almost threw up from the lingering smell of that pizza.

Honestly it was a pretty lovely KFC and a really nice pizza hut. The fryer grease wasn't getting changed out as often as it should have and the coleslaw never smelled like it did at other locations. Plus the Pizza Hut had a lot of cute girls from the local high school as in store servers/wait staff while they got a bunch of nerds to be the "cooks" and autoshop kids to deliver.

The KFC was shut down twice in one week because of gang fights between (white) staff members over the turf between trailer parks. None of them were under 25

working as a pizza man is the easiest way to liquidate your car while doing greasy degrading minimum wage work and getting yelled at by high school dropouts with prescription painkiller addictions

i was a pizza man once and one time at a mansion a ten year old paid me in change. he loaded the change up into a garden trowel and dumped all those sweet nickels into my greasy sad palms. his dad stood behind him profusely apologizing to me

i hope people stop tipping the pizza man once he starts driving the stove car because then maybe he won't make enough money to survive and will have to quit for something a little better

holy poo poo. Why did the dad let his kid do that?

At the very least pay in quarters and no more than 2 dollars in quarters.

Worst I ever did was tip in 2 dollar bills and quarters.

I don't order pizza very often here (UK), but when I have in the last few years, they don't use branded bikes or anything anymore - the drivers use their own cars and pay for their own fuel. Fuel is NOT cheap in Europe, and most of the "deals" Dominos have encourage you to come into store to collect OR spend over £50.....on pizza.

I still don't tip them because a Large pizza is like £17. which is what, $26? They are raking it in....I could get a much nicer pizza from a local italian restaurant for like £10, but then i'd have to put clothes on and go outside.

I'm the security key fob needed to open the pizza hatch in the Dominos-mobile.

I bet the drivers can't wait to lose their fob and have to pay fifty bucks out of pocket for a replacement one.
