It's the night before Thanksgiving. Who wants to cook dinner? What's easy? oh yeah! PIZZA!!! I'v currently waiting tables at a REALLY POPULAR local pizza restaurant. So, it's dinner time, we are getting slammed! The phones are ringing off the hook for pick up orders. This isn't Pizza Hut or Dominoes! The freshly made pizzas that come out of out kitchen are freshly made to order, and usually take about 20 mins. As the restaurant got busier the kitchen got further backed up, but were still able to jam out incredible pizzas. So, a couple comes in and orders a few large pizzas to go. They were told that it would be about 50 minutes. So, they came back in about 25, and at first sat patiently, but then, began to get irritable. They can clearly see that we are incredibly busy, but are beginning to ask what could possibly be taking so long. The poor cashier, who has a line of customers is trying his hardest to accomidate them, but, as the minutes tick by, this couple is asking one of the waitresses to check on their pizza and the lady is talking loudly on her phone about how it's taking an absurd amount of time for her pizza and then, when they finally get their pizza, 40 minutes after they ordered, which is what they were told would be the approximate time, they were rude and unappreciative.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME????
~next time you are in a hurry for a take out meal, either call it in ahead of time, or go to a fast food restaurant with a drive up window~
