    Cuz if it's thin and you don't fold it it'll flop over and spill its contents on the table / in your lap?

    I delivered pizzas for a while when I was younger as a part time job in Milwaukee. I have to admit, it was a lot of fun save for some of the seedy areas I had to go to. I made a lot of money. Met lots of chicks that way delivering on campus but I wasn't single at the time. If only I knew then what I know now I'd have taken advantage of all those opportunities. :(

    My very first delivery was to a drug house of all places. They wouldn't answer the front door and made me go to the back by gesturing through a window. The guy had a huge wad of cash and an Escalade decked out to hilt in the driveway. It was a scary start to the job, but pretty funny now looking back on it.

    What I noticed is that the more affluent the area the smaller the tips were. Not that they were stingy, but more in line with what was appropriate. The less affluent areas people were so bad with their money. It really was a small window into why they were in the positions they were in. $7-8+ tips to deliver a pizza at most 5 miles was crazy at the time. Even now.

    I always gave people back all of their change and never assumed that a tip was coming and I definitely never tried to stiff anyone. After a while you get to know who the regular customers are and in turn who the stingy people are. The smarter drivers knew which orders to take and which ones to leave for someone else.

    It's also true that drivers have a decent whack of money on them as long as they are in full swing of their shift. You start out with a bank of money and I always paid that back as soon as I could cover all the change with my tips, which on most nights happened rather quickly. I was pulling in $100+ a night easy on tips alone and being that it was a small private pizza place the owner let us report our own tips to the IRS. ;)

    Long story short is that when you have a beater car, live in a decent area and gas is cheap a pizza delivery job is a great thing to have.

    By Chicago Pizza do you mean deep dish?

    I don't really know how you can compare that to a standard pizza. It's a completely different food to me.


    christ bob are you having a tea party......chicago makes the finest thin crust in the country, the deep dish is another matter, everyone else is playing second fiddle except the chains who are not even in the band. oh, they have the best beef sandwiches as well. I got a taste last month when I was in Oshkosh, not perfect, but still damm good.

    There was a joint on the south side on 79th st., not far from Western Ave, Palamero's, damm makes my mouth water just thinking about it, see you dont have to fold chicago pizza the good stuff is held in place by an abundance of delicious cheese, besides in chicago they actually know how to cut a piece of pizza.

    Chicago also has the best sausage, so it all goes in hand to mouth, great food.

    sure hope danger doesn't choke on a bone.........salmon that is

    A tea party? I don't even know what that means in this context :)

    I personally think the "______ has the best pizza" argument is retarded. First, because people always choose the place they grew up in, so it's not exactly an objective opinion, and second because you can get good and crappy pizza anywhere. NYC may have the "best" pizza, but 90% of it is crap. Most of the pizza around me is crap, but there are some FANTASTIC places in the Boston area as well.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    bob if you moved to chicago then the pizza around you would be good, might be some other crap to deal with, but good pizza, of course if your one toke over the line even a bonus jack hits the spot during the tea party.

    I bet danger has pineapples on the salmon pizza, I have this picture of him chowing down while shaking to "tiny bubbles" on the uke.

Well I remember my great grandfather, grandfather, father, great uncles, uncles, and cousin 18 years my senior folding thier pizza. For some reason it adds to the chewyness of it and is yummie! Ya just can't do that with Chi-town or Sicilian pizza.

    Well seeing the store never called me tonight I ended up calling them again. Got the manager and he stated its been a common problem with the particular driver and that he was pretty much "on his way out" and this was probably the instance that finalized it.
    So I'm glad no one else will have to be screwed over by this kid. He also stated that if the driver doesn't have enough change or the proper change they are supposed to tell me that and then go to the store and get me the correct change if they don't have it, which this kid didn't bother to do. Oh well at least the manager was nice about the issue.

    I too delivered pizzas a few years back not on a college campus sadly, though quite a few ladies showed up in nothing but a bra and panties;). I worked in a relatively nice area so it wasn't too bad, I was asked to smoke up a few times which I thought was kinda funny.

    when I lived closer to the college (and was in college) there is a more local WI chain called Toppers whom my room and and I would commonly invite in for shots ect if we were drunk or having a party. Always fun times with the pizza guys there.
    That and we would commonly get free food for doing it too.
