re: Which side are you on- Nurse or Dominos Pizza?

Now, of course, if Dominos' policy is in fact to remain open after your hours of operation for people who order last minute, she does "deserve" the pizza. And then we can go down the path where she DID receive pizza. She is just outraged over what some part time pizza kid wrote on her box, which wasn't even rudely worded. Hardly deserving of free pizza. She received the product she ordered.

So what exactly are you arguing against what everyone on the other side is saying? You state your arbitrary, the place stops working at X:XX time due to your experiences being a server and you personally wanting to give the waitstaff a break. But the management obviously doesn't feel that way and their policy is to take orders until business hours are over and then fulfill those orders as necessary.

You are right that the wording was not really rude. I just think the intent is very wrong for a service industry. If you owned a store and knew your employees gave messages to customers that they didn't like having to work for them, that you wouldn't find that wrong? That's my whole point. A customer should not be made to feel that way for what was done. If a customer berated an employee, I'd have no issue with them throwing a drink in their face if it was warranted. Just don't feel that's the case here. Nurse doesn't deserve free stuff for the entire floor or anything, but it doesn't change that the employee was wrong for doing it. Now if I ever saw the nurses name again, I'd think it'd be okay to leave a shitty note now that she's blown this into more than it ever needed to be

You're vastly overestimating the thought process of a lot of people working in these joints. The rudest group of weekly customers we had at my old job were from a medical clinic.

Care to share your worst expierience?

but comparing a nurse's job to someone who cooks a generic pizza isn't the same to me.

Of course it isn't. Point is....everyone wants to be able to leave work on time. No matter what their job is. The nurse could have called the manager and said something about the note if she wanted, instead of blowing it up into some big unjustice she has to share with the world.


People need to calm the frick down and quit getting upset over every little thing.


Do we know what the nurse looks like?

tall, thin, pretty blonde

I can understand the frustration of the Dominoes workers but I'm on the nurses side. I'm in a line of work where at 4:45pm it looks like I'm getting ready to walk out the door at 5pm and head home, can turn into getting off at 9pm give or take in a matter of seconds. It sucks and is a huge inconvenience for my wife and kids, but it's the rules of the game. I'm not off the clock until I'm off the clock.

Same with the Dominoes workers, you're not off the clock until you're off the clock.

The nurse

I've worked in restaurants before where fat asses come waddling in the door right before closing. It sucks, but it is part of the job.

Sure, it's a dick move to order pizza 5 minutes before closing, but at the same time, the pizza chain should expect to do business during the time it is open. You can't have employees leaving passive aggressive notes on pizza boxes either

OT's resident pizza boy chiming in here.

It's frustrating as hell if there's a regular no tipping customer who orders just before closing time.

But most drivers know that someone ordering right before close is LIKELY to tip well.

Based on the specs of that delivery, the dumb arse manager and/or driver not only missed out on a good tip but were also made internet infamous.
