Dealing with the public has to be one of the worst jobs ever. There are so many idiots out there. I was probably going to LC in the mid 90's. The "Pizza Pizza!" deal is what it was. You get two pizzas for the price of one. It was still better than the shitty premade ones sitting around in a hotbox all day in a cardboard box.I worked at Little Caesars around '92-'93 and 99% of customers understood the "Pizza Pizza!" gimmick meant you got two pizzas for the price of one, but every so often someone would argue they only want one pizza so they shouldn't have to pay full price for one (huh?) or order "A pepperoni and a sausage" for example, but expect two of each totaling four pizzas when they came in because they thought if you ordered two pizzas without specifying you want four you got two for free... real MENSA members those folks.
My favorite "Pizza Pizza!" interpretation was when a customer came in about 3:30 pm before the dinner rush with one of those cardboard pieces and paper sleeves folded in half with apparently one pizza inside. This bitch had the balls to claim she ordered the pizzas a freaking year ago, ate one, put the other one in the freezer, and just today a fucking year later reheated it in the oven and it tasted so badly she decided to return it in exchange for a fresh one. My manager spoke with her for a bit and the conversation stayed civil, she didn't Karen out or anything, but the dude kind of gave up after a few minutes and made her a new pie. I asked him why he gave her free food when she was clearly scamming us and he just shrugged his shoulders and said sometimes it's easier to just give people what they want to get rid of them rather than risk they raise a stink with corporate.
