Life looks so easy from my easy-chair
So yes, work has indeed been an interesting place the last few days. Last evening, one of the kids at work made a pizza to share with the rest of his fellow employees, and there was no one in the dining room at that point. So, he takes plates, silverware, napkins and the pizza out to the booth nearest the door, and goes back to make an order.
Meanwhile, it starts raining, and everyone who was at Rathbun comes a-running to the Hut for damned pizza. They bitch that its cold in there, while they are wet, in swimming suits, etc, drinking cold glasses of H20 and soda. What the hell do they expect?
Well, large table (10 people)walks through the door, with this guy who is just plowed over drunk. He starts bitching about how hungry he is etc, and starts eyeing our pizza at the booth across from him.
Noticing that no one is eating off the pizza, he just goes over, grabs the whole pizza and the plates and silverware, and starts eating the pizza. So the kid steps out of the kitchen and is pissed. Goes over and asks the guy how his is, and the drunk replies 'Tastes like <strong>shit'.
So, not knowing what to do, the kid just storms back into the kitchen and asks me what to do. So, I go out and say "Well, sir, if our pizza tastes like shit, lemme just get it out of your way" and promptly remove the pizza, while he just looks dumbfounded at me.
Then tonight, the drunks were at it again. This guy orders a pizza for delivery. Standard wait time for a delivery is approximately 45 minutes. This I tell for people to allow 25-30 minutes for the pizza to cook, and an additional 20-15 minutes for the driver to find the house, take additional deliveries, etc. So, this guy calls in, for a delivery, and we take his order, fine and dandy. He waits maybe 30 minutes, and then he keeps calling in asking where his pizza is. Finally, after calling 5 times in a row, in 8 minutes, he talks to me, and was like
"Okay,babe, whats going on, where's my food? You gonna have to work it off..."
Which I promptly told him that it would be there shortly, and hung up the phone.
And this gents, is why I just love my job.
Blah.
Props to you on making it this far if you did, it was fairly long, and mostly pointless. However, I figured someone would find the man eating our pizza pretty funny. heh heh...yeah...
*sigh*
