To be fair, it’s wild that anyone still employs full time delivery drivers. Every pizza place I’ve worked at either had an employee doing double duty, or used a third party that got paid per delivery. Paying someone an hourly wage to do a job that isn’t even guaranteed to be required (depending on the night) is some franchise-only shit, and I’m not surprised to hear even they’re moving away from it.
Can’t get to the article because paywall.
But is it a $20 increase, or increase to $20?
This is an outrage.
They will continue to not get my business. But now it's on moral grounds and not just because they have the shittiest pizza I've ever had the displeasure of eating.
In 1990 NYC they started dumping pizzas in the sewers and got a huge boost from the underground ninja scene. Maybe they’re betting on guerrilla marketing again instead of respecting their employees or developing a product worth leaving the home about.
Saw this coming from a mile off. It's just common sense. . employers won't have their bottom line cut that far. Force them to pay more and they'll look for other options. You have got things like grubhub. Pizza hut can fire their people and still sell just as many pizzas. This could literally translate into more profit if you think about it.
Who's going to deliver pizza now? What about when Cali comes after them too?
Happy New Year, everyone!
