    r/AITAH 6 hr. ago MannerSilly657 AITA for making my entire office jealous after they "forgot" to include me in the group lunch order again?

    I (27F) have been dealing with a petty but annoying situation at my office. Every Wednesday, someone collects orders for this amazing local pizza place that doesn't deliver. They make the best pizzas in town wood-fired, fresh ingredients, the works. The catch is they require a minimum of 5 pizzas for a takeout order.

    For the past THREE MONTHS, I keep getting "forgotten" when they take orders. It started when I had to change my lunch hour to 1 PM instead of noon because of project meetings. Every week, I put my order in their shared Excel sheet, and every week they somehow order "just before I added it" or "didn't see my entry."

    Here's the kicker - I literally sit right next to Kevin (31M), who collects the money and places the order. He has to physically turn his back to me to avoid seeing me.

    Last Wednesday was the last straw. I heard them all planning the order, watched Kevin collect money, and my name was definitely on that spreadsheet. Yet somehow, when the food arrived - no pizza for me. Kevin's response? "Oh, sorry, must have missed your name again! We already hit the minimum order though!"

    So today, I decided to be petty. I called the pizza place first thing in the morning and spoke to the owner. Explained the situation and asked if I could place a single order for pickup if I paid a little extra. He laughed and said he liked my style, and agreed.

    When everyone's pizza arrived at 12, I waited. Then at 12:55, right before my lunch, I walked in with a pizza that smelled DIVINE. The owner had made me a special off- menu item with truffle oil, prosciutto, and buffalo mozzarella. The entire office could smell it.

    Suddenly everyone was asking where I got it, since they "thought this place had a 5 pizza minimum?" I just smiled and said "Oh, I have an arrangement with the owner now. By the way, he says hi Kevin!"

    Now half the office is mad that I "went behind their backs" to get special treatment, and the other half is mad at Kevin for excluding me all this time. Kevin is especially angry because apparently some people have now asked him to be removed from the order coordinator role.

    My pizza was delicious, but there's definitely tension in the office now. Worth noting that three people have already asked for my "pizza connection" for their own orders. AITA for escalating a petty pizza situation?

    petalsandpeacocks • 5h ago • They were jealous that you got pizza from the same place as they did? A super special secret pizza that smelled simply DIVINE? How does that make sense? Calling BS.

    Jeimuz 4h ago • So is Kevin ordering from Pizza By Alfredo or Alfredo's Pizza Cafe? I hear one is really good and the other is really bad.

    NurseNess 5h ago • If your name was on the spreadsheet, did you pay Kevin before he ordered?

    agg288 8h ago So everyone had already eaten lunch but somehow reaaaally wanted more immediately after finishing?
