    Font - r/MaliciousCompliance u/Subconcious-Consumer · 1d + Join 4 3 2 1 How not to order "Extra Sauce" on your Pizza M I failed to keep this short and sweet, it involves: a 16" dough, a s t load of pizza sauce, way younger me, and an angry mid-western lady. I was working a closing shift alone at a pizza shop (minus the drivers on delivery), and I wouldn't say that I really had developed the same sense of urgency I have as an adult now to maintain employment. (Granted, I didn't get fired for this

    Font - Lady comes in, orders a regular 14" cheese pizza with extra sauce to go. At the little family owned shop I worked for, the menu item "extra sauce" operationally meant that we used a larger ladle to scoop and apply the sauce, but, I would come to find that this proportion was not sufficient for this lady. *Disclaimer: Given that I am undeniably a POS at that stage of my life, human error is a *POSSIBILITY, but I put sure did on the second one too). extra sauce on the first pizza.

    Font - Fluently in Rude American, she says "Honey, I know you work at a Pizza place, so this is probably hard for you to understand, but I ordered extra sauce on this pizza". She doesn't leave me much room to speak, and tells me I need to remake her pizza with "extra sauce this time" and have it delivered to her place. I'm 100% salty, but, I decide to take her address and arrange a comped pizza. As soon as she left, I got to work on my masterpiece. Now, the lady ordered a 14" pizza, but I instea

    Font - For emphasis, as I lift this pizza puddle off of the sauce-station, the pizza is noticeably heavy af and I have to walk slowly to avoid swishing the f ing sauce everywhere. I would guess it weighed about 4lbs and the sauce was 3-4" or so thick. *Edit: My estimate of 3-4" is way off, as pointed out by some smart folks below in the comments. I used a single no. 10 size can, which was 6lbs of pizza sauce on her pie and far less than 3" height. Undoubtedly, it was a threatening and alarming a

    Font - It finally cooks and I pack it up; but I can't cut it because obviously sauce will f ing run everywhere. I did incorrectly assume that anyone else handling this pizza would be able to make that judgement as well. In hindsight, I had the benefit of being there when the sauce was literally dumped on it, so maybe leaving a note advising the customer not to cut the pizza would have been more "holy" or whatever. I hand the soup to the driver; he doesn't think the s it is funny and has to hold

    Font - 50 minutes later or so after delivery, I get a call. It's the angry mid-western lady; and shes really mad this time. I gather from our conversation that she made an attempt to slice that pizza, and made quite the mess for herself in the process. I didn't say anything funny or witty back, I just gave her the number to use for complaints, but internally I thought it was f ing hilarious. She sent a scathing review of my masterpiece which printed at the station next to me and was promptly shr

    Font - Born-Pineapple • 1d I worked at a couple pizza places. One in the burbs, this lady would always order a large meat lovers with extra black olives. She would always always complain about not enough olives on the pizza, under tip the driver, send the pizza back, ask for a discount, etc. One night we were sick of it so I dumped a bunch of the juice from the giant olive jar on the pizza before I cooked it. Crazy woman called... saying it was theeee best pizza ever. Um. Whoops. |+ 6 Reply 1 1.

    Font - sleepingdragon80 · 1d Reminds me of a regular who came in every month and order a pizza with literally everything on it. Black olives, pineapple, pepperoni, sausage, beef, Canadian bacon, chicken, onions, green peppers, jalapenos, literally everything. It was a good 7-8 inches thick and needed cheese reinforcement between every 5 toppings or so. It was like a $50 pizza and he paid every time and loved it. G Reply 4 366 ...

    Font - Dirty_Hairy · 1d As someone who always orders extra sauce and never gets enough, I would have left a fat tip and called back to thank you. G Reply 56 3 + Subconcious-Consumer OP • 1d Should they have considered engaging the soup saucer with spoons or straws first instead of going straight for the cutter, I suspect this would have been a positive experience. 6 ↑ 29 3 ...
