Obviously, they hire anyone in fast food, even the horribly immature.
I was scheduled to work tonight until 12am, when the pizza place closed. It hadn't been a good day, I got tipped lousy, I got wacked in the face by a door so hard it cut my lip and gum open and I was bleeding from both, and in one case I had to wait 20 minutes until the person with the money showed up at my delivery stop.
Add to that they wanted me to stay until everything was cleaned up. They wanted me to do the dishes. Now, they also wanted the other driver that night to do the dishes as well but he was nowhere to be found.
So I'm scrubbing an enormous mountain of oily dishes and it's about 1:15 and the other driver finally shows up to help, and I'm already 2/3rds of the way through.
I've already had issues with this driver before: he's incredibly bossy and orders me around even though he's not my superior, and I once snapped at him and told him to stop ordering me around. He'll shove orders in my face and demand I take them somewhere even though I haven't had time to look at mapquest, and he'll always take the best orders and give me only one or two shitty ones.
So he's rinsing with a sprayer, and I'm scrubbing in another sink nearby with a scouring sponge. I'm already soaked because I'm moving fast and I honestly don't care. He starts complaining because a little water from me is supposedly hitting him. I told him that I wasn't doing it on purpose, that I was just rushing and he may get a little wet.
Eventually he tells me that if he gets hit by water again, he'd spray me in the face with the sprayer. And then he did. And then did it again a minute later. I told him to stop and he said "Stop splashing water at me then." Finally he sprayed me for the last time and I had a tub of water in the sink I was scrubbing and I tossed it at him.
Even with two managers standing there they couldn't be heard over our arguing. He kept on bitching about being a little wet and me splashing him on purpose. I told him "Look, I'm not fucking splashing you on fucking purpose. I'm trying to get these fucking dishes done and it's already 2 fucking AM and I'm fucking tired and I'm fucking going to miss my class tomorrow morning and I'm fucking soaked here and you're fucking whining about a little fucking water, then wear a fucking smock you fucking ass, you're not wearing anything not even a fucking apron, I'm wearing a fucking apron and I'm soaked, I just want to go fucking home not listen to you bitch and act like an immature cock by spraying me in the fucking face." And he was like "All right bitch, you want to settle this, let's settle this now like men you fucking ass."
The managers tried to get us to continue to work, but then he started slapping me with a spoon because he was getting splashed a little again, and I exploded a second time and said "FUCK THIS SHIT, I'M FUCKING GOING HOME."
I wanted to smash his fucking face in but I just stormed out and left. Fuck that shit.
Whining over a little bit of fucking water. What a fucking crybaby. Fuck that pussy, he needs his fucking face rearranged. I'm sitting here still soaked, and he's whining about a little bit of fucking water splashing him. And I swear, if I were to lose my job over his immaturity, and him hosing me down with the sprayer over getting splashed a little, I'm going to hunt his ass down and fuck him up.
:mad:
-
Oh, and when I decided to leave at the end, I did so because frankly, the situation was not working. Dishes were not getting washed because he would stop to spray me or slap me with a spoon if spray water hit him. Thus, nothing was getting accomplished. Plus, obviously we were not getting along, so if I was to stay, it would get much worse, and a fist fight might (probably would have) broken out.
So I left before violence started. I said "screw this, I'm not getting anything productive done, and hell's about to begin." And I do what I almost always do if things get heated: I end the argument by leaving.
If I lose my job, what can I say? Better to lose my job than to beat the shit out of someone and end up in jail.

The second he hit you with a spoon you should have drilled him...or if you wanted to be responsible told a manager.
Because you left the only thing you have going for you is if this guy is a known cock sucker. If management thinks theres nothing wrong with him he can lie about the situation.
The managers weren't watching this whole thing and laughing were they?
-
I'm kinda wondering that, too. Jeez. But walking out of a job like that isn't the end of the world. At least in my experience. Turn-over is so high, they're just "meh, okay, are you ready to work today"? It's best to save the walking out until you've talked to management. Unless management IS the problem, which has caused me to walk out of one of my former jobs once.

**ponders as to why D seems to find trouble around every corner**

damn you really should have drilled that guy...it would have earned you major points with your wigger chick.

There was a management dude there, and he was cool with me leaving, and apparently the guy's a known asshole.
I wouldn't have minded drilling him, but then I'd end up in LOL JAIL BUTTSECKS.
-
No way! By crom he hit you with a spoon! Self defense baby!
-
You know what would probably help you, D?
Not being such a gigantic butt-ranch all the time.
-
The one thing I've taken away from this thread is a want of Pizza.
-
That I could only deliver to... :raiseeyebrow: God, where the fuck does your ginger ass live?
Some where dumb, I bet.
-
He lives in a shed filled with possums in Podunk, MO.
**ponders as to why D seems to find trouble around every corner**
I know, right. I mean, is he like he is on the board in real life? Because if so, then I understand. I mean, cause I always want to hit him with a spoon.
-
Spoon nothing. Sometimes I'm thinking a truck or the backhoe.
-
I'd think a backhoe would be pretty easy to dodge. Unless you're swinging the boom around to hit him, that might work.
-
A large metal spoon with spikes does it for me. Perhaps with a chain attached so I can swing it around.
-
All this spoon talk make me want to watch some Tick episodes. :-\
-
And your Tick talk makes me want to slap Doug with Chairface Chippendale.

im gonna DL some tick eps right now

Very clever, my friend, but I have deciphered your coded message!

............ :P
-

I am so tired of your degrating sterotypes. And they are Coons, not possums.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have to tend to the still.
-
Heh. Anybody remember Freddy Krueger's coonskin cap?
-
NO.
-
Opossums are just Irish possums, you know.
-
I found out that everyone on the job knows this guy's an asshole. So I'm in the clear.
He came in grouchy today and threw his pizza bag rather violently in the pile of pizza bags, so I turn to one of other drivers once he leaves and ask "Does he seem like an asshole to you?"
"Well yea, that's because he is an asshole. He hates his life and the world so he takes it out on everyone and acts like a dick."
And then I saw him arguing with the same manager who witnessed our fight, about people stealing his deliveries. Dude, if you hate yourself so much cut your fucking wrists in a hot bathtub or something!
-
:-\That is um.
That is quite the interesting personality yer sportin there, little dipper. :blink:
-
The real question is: Can you kick his ass? Get him to throw the first punch and you're as good as laid. How do I know this? Because right along side all the bullshit today's modern society female spouts about violence being bad is an urge to see their male counterparts in glorious battle that sends a hot white blast of sexual signal searing through their eyeballs all the way down to their berginas. This response has been with them since they stepped out of the jungle and as much as they'd like to belie it IT IS THERE! RISE UP! SEIZE YOUR DESTINY!
-
Or skip all that fucking shit by following him home and raping him.
-
Or you can mess with his mind and bring him down until he offs himself.
-
Or skip all that fucking shit by following him home and raping him.
Christ on a cracker. :lol:
-
Eeesh.
-
If he's such a pain in the ass, why they don't just fire him?? I mean, if NO ONE likes him, then he should go
-
I heard a rumor, he may have been fired.
Details at 11.
-
Likely not. Those sorts of places just rather you quit on your own.
-
Yeah, it an be hard as hell to fire people.
-
You're fired!
Easy as pie.
-
It must be easy since Burger King dumped my ass rather quickly (back when I was 15). I mean... not that I care or anything.
I'm not bitter. Stupid jerks.
-
Fast food work is scary. Put salt on a burger and you're in jail. ???
-

"Fired" fired or you left and didn't call back for a while so they let you go? Because if you do the latter, you've just quit on your own. In Tejas, anyway. Joy.
-
See? Even when you fire people, you still haven't fired them.
-
Can't restaurants just kill you and dump the body in the grease trap?
-
He was fired. According to the co-worker I drove home, he tries to act all gangster and says that he can kick anyone's ass and if anyone fucks with him he'll pull out a strap.
And he's asian. Horray for angry asian trying to act like a black gang member.
And if he wants to shoot me, he'll have to get in line. I think I have a whole roster of people I've pissed off over the years who have a grudge against me.
-
Vtech might kick in...
-
he's incredibly bossy and orders me around even though he's not my superior...
Given that he sprayed you in the face (a face-breaking offense) and hit you with a spoon (yet another wrong turn on the one-way street of face-fuckery) and you took it like a pet bitch instead of going caveman upside his head, I'd say that he proved to be your superior after all.
BTW, you're delivering pizza, and you don't pack heat? Are you brave, dumb, indifferent, or is there something in the small print that prohibits it?
-
angry asian guy pwns D! Wigger chick sees him as emasculated! Read all about it!
-
I knew this guy who made a shitload of money delivering pizza because he'd take all the seedy addresses. He'd knock on the door and hear, "WHADDA FUCK??!! Oh, the pizza...." The door would open enough for him to surreptiously glance in and see tables with wrapped bundles and stacks of money, which he acted like he didn't see because he was busy slipping the pizzas out of the carrier. He'd get a $50 shoved at him for a $20 order with a terse, "Keep it, man" and the door would slam. Can't remember if he packed or not, but he never got messed with. Maybe there was an unspoken agreement with the neighborhood not to fuck with the pizza guy - a hungry dealer is a cranky dealer. :rawr:
-
Makes sense to me. If they fuck up the pizza guy, then they'd have to go and pick up their own eats. That means they have to put all the crack away and close all the windows before they leave the house, and we all know what a hassle that can be.
-
Don't want Drano in your coke? Don't delay the pizza! :mad:

Vtech might kick in...
All my school needs is a shooting by an angry Korean. They've already had enough mess with strikes and budget problems and PR bullshit.
BTW, you're delivering pizza, and you don't pack heat? Are you brave, dumb, indifferent, or is there something in the small print that prohibits it?
Small print. I know some people who carry mace. I wish I could carry a gun but most of the neighborhoods I've been to aren't that bad. Although the guy I drove home said that his neighborhood has people shooting guns almost every night.
I do have a 55 watt/1 million candlepower halogen light. (http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/45390-56105-2276.html) (not that one but similar) It's bright enough to put a beam of light on the top of a 30 story building. It's bright enough to temporarily blind someone. It's so bright if you shine it at your face your face feels hot, and if you put your hand in front of the lens it's extremely hot. It uses a real halogen lightbulb like they use in car high beams, not one of those fake halogen bulbs they use in dollar store flashlights. It's also heavy and metal, so I can use it as a club as well.

I must be going to the wrong seedy neighborhoods, because in those places, they want ALL the change back. Even the coins. They're cheap as hell.

Boy you guys are really selling me on big city life here.

The entire world is a disgusting, horrible, and adventure-deprived place.

Our conflicting views of firearm ownership aside, I don't think we need to encourage someone like D to ever own a weapon.
-
I need a gun too. I'm pretty sure every grade schooler has one here.
-
A customer walked in and asked if the asian guy was still working there. when told he was fired, the guy thanked us and said he had been an asshole to him when he delivered his food. So apparently this guy was a dick to everyone, I was just the first to almost flip out and kill his ass.
Oh, and one of the managers was packing heat last night. So apparently the rule about guns does not apply to the upper eschelons.
What are the alternatives to guns? Tasers seem to be popular with cops nowadays shocking everyone that pisses them off. There's also good ol' fashioned ninja-fu.
-
I'm glad I don't order pizza. Bitches with guns don't need to be coming to my door. I don't want to be in any proximity of a firearm. The people capable of using them competently and legally are too far outnumbered.
-
I still say you should've beat the crap out of that guy. You'd have level'd up for sure.

See? I could use it right now.

Oh how I love black people now. ::)
I go into what I thought was an alright neighborhood, I'd heard rumors about it but never had problems there, and it was during the day. So I get to the person's house and see that he appears to have no driveway and there's nowhere to park in front of his house, so I park in front of the next house down. A hood-looking black guy walks up as I'm starting towards the house. (Imagine him looking like one of these angry guys (http://www.mixtapetorrent.com/system/files/gangstagrillz8.jpg)).
"Move your damn car! That's where my grandmother parks"
"Look, I need to deliver the pizza, I'll be gone in two minutes"
"Apparently you didn't hear me, I told you to move the damn car"
"I'm delivering this pizza. I will move the car when I'm done"
"Move the fucking car, nigga!"
"Shut the hell up"
"What you say to me?"
it seems if you talk back to a black man, they get violent. He stalks up to me and tells me to move the car again, in which case I jump in the car, throw it in reverse doing 50, and then park in front of another house. I could have argued against him, but odds are he would have either attacked me, stabbed me, or shot me.
I WOULD have moved it a lot sooner had he said "Could you move the car for me?" instead of "Move the damn car!". These black guys need to realize that acting all angry all the fucking time gets you nowhere except in prison for life for a murder charge.
Fast forward to later in the night where some black dude gets impatient because his chicken is taking too long... chicken takes about 20 minutes to broil. He flips out and gets this loud angry attitude demanding his money back, and starts to argue with the manager who carries the gun. I expected bullets to fly any minute.
And then as I was going through another "ghettoish" neighborhood, I drive towards a large group of young black males practically filling the entire parking lot. They did separate and let me through, but they slapped my car and mocked me as I drove through.
I have no problems with cool black people, it's idiots who try to act like this (http://www.poster.net/50-cent/50-cent-50-cent-gun-1076368.jpg). The angry, cocky, invincible, fuck-everyone-else-but-me, I-got-a-gun-and-I'll-fuck-you-up-with-it, gangsta-rap-is-my-bible mother fuckers who wear bling and their pants down to their ankles that I hate. Fuck gangsta rap, fuck angry black guys. Take the black dudes in San Andreas. It's not quite as bad around here, but it can be, and there are people like that. I saw two black dudes almost kill each other because of name calling. And there's plenty of murders deeper in Detroit, we're almost as bad as Philly.
We need to toss all gangsta rap in a bonfire and throw all the self-proclaimed thugs and gangstas into a nice concentration camp... and maybe an incenerator.
-
You're a fucking pussy, no wonder he punked you.
-
You should've had fun with it. Like started yelling:
OMG OMG OMG! Don't hurt me! Take my wallet please don't hurt me! OMG OMG OMG!
Then when your customer answers the door return to your normal calm state, deliver the pizza, then after the door closed go back to:
OMG OMG! PLEASE PLEASE DON'T HURT ME! OMG PLEASE!
ran over to your car and as you're getting in/driving away yelled out LATER BOMBACLOT! BOOMFASSY BOYEEEE! POP POP POP!
-
See, this is why IDE has touched a woman without being in Chuckie Cheese.
-
that and he has large muscles. Chicks dig those for some reason... although big muscle size does not equal big penis size.
-
D's right. My penis was big long before my muscles.
-
:lol:

D. I echo Tom/Derricks statement. Grow a god-damn spine.

First, you handled it wrong. You should have either backed off or complied when he got huffy about it. You DID park in front of HIS house, after all.
Second, this is why you should have a gun...fuck some bullshit rule when your life may be at stake. If you're going into places that could be dangerous, have you something that'll instantly work from a distance against someone that's high. And that dismisses pepper spray and tasers and leaves but one option. Check your local laws on the subject and be sure what they say about it...having firearms is a right that's often relegated to a privilege and occasionally taken away.
As for Beck's caveat over pizza guys toting more than pies, that's why they call it "concealed-carry". You think Walmart would like me walking through their store if they knew I had a gun on me? Only an idiots and cops open-carry.
-

Yes but streets are public property, they're owned by the government. Unless it's a driveway on private property.
-
Wait...you WEREN'T in his drive way?! I thought you were in his driveway the whole time.
-
No.
I'm starting to hate this job, as much as I need it. Two reasons... one of course is having to drive into ghettos and rough neighborhoods at night. Some of these neighborhoods are places all the other delivery companies refuse to deliver to at night. I think that if they won't deliver there, there's probably a very good reason.
Two, the job's extremely stressful. Last two weeks I was scheduled for over 40 hours. Two weeks ago I was supposed to have the day I went to the Renaissance festival off. I was also supposed to have the day before (sat) off as well. So in total I was supposed to have 2 days off the one week and the next Sunday off for the fair. They called me in to work on Saturday which means that week I had to work 6 days. Then they forgot to give me Sunday off, so I told him I'd come in but around 7-8pm after the fair was over. Around 6 pm they start calling me and asking me if I can come in, but I tell them I'm an hour away at the fair. And of course I got there when I said I would, before 8pm.
The problem is, our store is the only store for our chain in the city, and we service the ENTIRE CITY. Even with 5-6 drivers working at a time, during fri and sat night, we'll be so busy some orders will be over an hour late. And that's with 6 drivers working! Every black person and their grandmother wants to order our damn pizza. It's just too damn busy and too stressful. They need to build more stores in this city to handle the extra load, Dominoes has 3-4 stores, and all the other pizza places have more than one store.
-
quit quit quit. im pretty sure there must be more places that need drivers for their delivery service.
-
Now that you know the area you can whore yourself out to a corp like Dominoes. Theres no point in eating shit on tips because you're understaffed...or do you make up for it because you get so many deliveries. Thankfully I've been out of the pie slanging business too long to know the answer.
-
There will always be jobs you fucking hate that you got to do. Every year we gotta clean out the goat pen, and that shit sucks, but we do it without a complaint. I work at a bookstore with more bosses than workers, including a control freak that chain smokes and looks like a crag faced wnech that loves to do nothing more than go nazi on people trying to study or do homework when the store isn't busy. Nevermind getting shit on by customers, nevermind putting up with stupid or slacking employee's, nevermind a bi-polar boss that keeps calling me OGRE (Mildly annoying, but tolerable), nevermind a pussy of a manager that folds like a steel chair under pressure by the other bosses and refuses to stand up for the employees, you do what you have to do to pay the god damn bills. You don't like it? Change your job. If you can't, stop whining.
Now when you quit that job, make sure you get a referral before you do what you've been DREAMING about. Myself, I plan to get my referral, then walk right up to that Frances Wench on my last day, flip her the double bird, and walk right the fuck out. I swear on my grave that is exactly what I'll do.
"Frances, this is my last day and I'm actually about to walk out, but before I go, I feel there is something I must say to you. "Flips double bird" Fuck you, you control-freak crag-faced wench. This was a great job except for you making it an utter hell with your seig heil crap and your utter incompetences when it comes to merchandise. SERIOUSLY. Can you get ANYTHING for us that isn't utter crap? The odd diamond in the rough merchandise is great, but jesus christ that doesn't excuse the 98% other bullshit you order. A FOG MACHINE. WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WILL BUY A FOG MACHINE AT THIS COLLEGE? So, to reiterate..."Double bird"."
-
My suggestion would be to stow the finger if I were you. Perhaps draw a pr0n DVDA hentai and post it online instead. Vulture-faced Frances lying there over her desk as four orcs have at her, her deep jagged wrinkles formed into a permanent frown, bored among the copious fog of the barely working machine, and irately gnawing on her crusty cigarette and wondering if the wholesale value for Earth Sciences 8th Edition is worth the time and money it would take to pack and ship them back to the company.
-
You could have the orcs boning her face wrinkles.
-
Is the inspiration for calling you an OGRE your physical appearance?
Because that doesn't sound like it would be too funny to me. :-\
-
I believe it's due to the tall nature. Either way, I can deal with that more than the nazi wench.
-
You could have the orcs boning her face wrinkles.
Why didn't I think of that!? Dammit all!

This thread has just become awesome.

He should carry an ax and use it on her so it'd finally be justified.
