Hey, Waiter! Just How Much Extra Do You Really Expect?

[TLAM Strike]

And I do think they pay attention... maybe it's my imagination, but I think I get my food a lot quicker now that I have a "history" with these places. The two I use most frequently, whatever delivery time they indicate when I place the order, I can usually cut in half, even during their busy times.

Could be, also we have been known to shift orders around so drivers can take several on one run. If you want to pizza to arrive really quick have a couple neighbors order at the same time.


One more thing in general when you see a cheap price on the menu or on a coupon it doesn't always include tax, delivery charge or toppings. If you balk at the $1.75 it costs to get peperoni think about the impression you just made... really think the driver is going to rush over with that delivery now?

This is the kind of situation we get a lot of:

Customer: I have a coupon for a cheese large pizza for 8.99... so I would like a large with peperoni, mushrooms, peppers, olives, sausage, the blood of a virgin as sauce and I would like it delivered by autogyro...
Me: that will be $587.92...
Customer: But I have a coupon that says 8.99!
Me: Tax, toppings and delivery are extra.
Customer: Fine, I'll have a large cheese for pickup...

Customer service is the worst job you can possibly have.
