hank213 1,823 Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Stumbled across this article, I pretty much skipped the top and went straight to the interviews with the delivery drivers. Some of the responses made me wonder if those guys post here frequently.http://citypages.com/databank/26/1264/article12991.asp Link to post Share on other sites

Dirtydutch 8 Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 Yes, use the tips to fund you poker playing.I have to be free for about four hours a day right now (sometimes I'll also need to run a weird errend or something). Other than that it's just poker and writing stupid **** on the Internet. I'm half-concidering this. Link to post Share on other sites

Dirtydutch 8 Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 and, you probably get free pizza.I kinda' know this dude who manages a place in Atlanta. I used to have a huge crush on his sister. I'll bet they'll think this is hysterical. He's not answering his phone, but I think this is happening. Link to post Share on other sites
mrdannyg 274 Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 given I know you will make it extremely entertaining, I just want to throw my hat in the ring and say that I will do whatever I can to support this.Dutch, whatever you need, whether it be fake delivery orders, ideas for hilarity, etc.I'm sure you can think of plenty of hilarious characters you can play to spice up the hilarity. I'm envisioning one where you rent a Ferrari, and drive around wearing driving goggles and a driving neckerchief, while speaking in an affected accent.You could have a character submission contest. Wang's ideas alone could keep you going for a month. Link to post Share on other sites

Dirtydutch 8 Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 I just sorta' stepped back and realized that if I do this, I'm going to be delivering pizzas. This is going to be the furthest I've even taken a joke. I guess it's too late to back out. Link to post Share on other sites

I've got something lined up in that regard, I'll let you know tomorrow night.If I was moderately clever, I'd come up with more, but I trust that you'll get some great suggestions.If only there was a way to have this be professionally filmed, but not have that affect anything, it'd be gold. Like a porno.I'm actually nearly giddy in anticipation. Link to post Share on other sites

Pokergolf 0 Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 I was a pizza hack back in the day, nice way to make easy cash, plus free food, all while being able to get stoned the entire shift. Here is the tip of the day: when you start to run across houses that regularly do not tip, make sure you do something vile to their pizza next time they order. At the low end of the spectrum, you can simply shake the pizza so the cheese gets all over the top of the box, always a nice pain in the rear for the cheap customer. At the higher end of the spectrum, well, you can use your imagination. (Let this be a lesson, always tip your pizza delivery person) Link to post Share on other sites

Two black guys came in with guns and held up the front and 2 of the customers. Everyone in the back including me jammed out the back door and as were running they both come running after us or so we thought. They had the get away car parked in the apartment lot behind us.
