Just read the pizza thread. Had stuff come late before, wasn't cold, was an obvious "we got a rush of calls" delivery. Didn't even care. Chances are if I'm ordering delivery I'm just sitting on my ass waiting for food so it's not like I have something important to do.

As a city, Boston is somewhat legendary for being a progressive east coast liberal hub and racist at the same time.

I didn't even know it was apparently racist until now. o_0

Then again I might be somewhat sheltered.

There's tons of Indian, Middle Eastern, and Asian people here at least. They're all pretty cool. Dunno if that helps, lol.

Hmm yeah it is pretty segregated still. Maybe I am just sheltered.

Fuck. Sorry Himu.

Edit- Hmm their other points either seem out of date or sketchy at best, with the commenters being dissentful... I mean, all the neighborhoods kinda stick together like I said, but otherwise...

Edit 2- For the record I live in Dorchester which has historically been called one of the seedier parts of Boston but it's pretty quiet and nice here, now at least.

Himu · « **Reply #15074 on:** September 23, 2013, 01:25:00 AM »

For reference: Super Bowl night is the most busy night for pizza places. Also, Sundays during football season tend to be almost as busy as Fridays. Sometimes.

Himu · « **Reply #15076 on:** September 23, 2013, 01:34:39 AM »

Typically when you're backed up the manager has you take 3-4 orders at once. It really depends on who's driving that day. Sometimes on weekends, peoples schedules are lighter and they aren't working that day, so you'll only have like 3 drivers for hundreds of orders on a busy ass day. This lack of workers can also happen with the prep, pizza cooks, and other workers, so you lack the drivers AND the people making the actual food, so you'll have drivers making food and then driving out when there's only 2 other people in the store.

A big assumption people make is that pizza places are assembly lines: they aren't.

Himu · « **Reply #15077 on:** September 23, 2013, 01:38:07 AM »

Sometimes customers don't answer their phones. Actually, that's MOST of the time. Pizza places ask for the number first in case something happens and about 75% of the time on a drive, and I wanted to tell the customer that I'm going to be running late they didn't answer.

I think people are afraid of the pizza place calling, like it freaks them out. I've been at more than one gathering where the pizza place called back and the only time anyone ever answered was when I was the one who called.

And maybe the only reason I even do that is because one time a chinese place called back and they hadn't written our order down, just the phone number.

If you order your food for delivery please have the common decency to have your phone nearby and answer it even if you don't know who it is. My one sentence rant.

It's like Karma. They probably deserve their shitty job, so it's OK to treat them like shit. They're only helping them along on their quest to a better life.

Sometimes it can be popular and get cancelled. Or there's some other drama behind the scenes.
