After this employee hung up on a potential customer, their boss decided to implement new rules. Did these new rules involve common sense? Not at all. Teenagers have been making prank calls since the dawn of time; it's a right of passage to call up an establishment and ask them if their fridge is running. The OP writes that they got so many prank calls each day while working at a pizza restaurant that they got sick of hearing them. So they started hanging up on people who were asking for “bonele…

A Karen calls an arts and crafts store and demands a pizza… No, this isn't a punchline for a joke—but everyone who has worked in restaurants or retail wishes that it was. These workers have seen their fair share of wild demands and demanding wild persons—and it only takes one screaming customer meltdown in the lobby of your establishment to make you reconsider your entire line of work. But at least in person, most people have the good graces to behave politely, but phone conversations and email…

There's nothing more satisfying than proving to everyone in the office that your manager's pointless rules are... well, pointless.

Growing up, pizza was one of the best things in the world. It was more than just delicious, the presence of pizza often signaled a good time. Cheap, but tasty Little Caesar's at sleepovers, pizza day in the school cafeteria, eating a big pie with your soccer team after a win. Pizza is nostalgic, it's a core part of so many people's childhood. That's not to say pizza has no place as an adult. Ordering a pizza for delivery is a convenient and tasty experience . It's good in a pinch or when you do…

It turns out they had a choice after all…. The bounds of any authority are limited, but that doesn't stop those wielding it from consistently overestimating where those limits are. And, when you're the assistant manager of a pizza place, the bounds of your authority are probably much less than you think… Your power in that position isn't unchecked—it's not like you're the United States Secretary of Defense or anything. Still, as always, where there exists a single shred of power, there is someo…

If you thought pineapple on pizza was bad, you ain't seen nothing yet.

So romantical....

Only the most adventurous of food connoisseurs could love these outlandish dishes . Everyone has that one friend that will eat anything. They gain a reputation as a garbage disposal because they'll eat everyone's leftovers . They're the friend who doesn't think to look at expiration dates before chowing down on the food in your fridge. Maybe they even make strange food combos that you'd never dream of eating. These foods below are probably too weird even for that friend! Check out the wild dish…

This isn't how I remember that going…

A restaurant being closed has never stopped this woman from demanding pizza . I have never understood why customers will insist on being served at establishments that are closed for the day. You can say to them, “Hey we're actually closed,” and they'll cut you off mid-sentence to start the order. It's like they didn't even hear you! They've come for their food, and they can't imagine leaving without it. When I worked in fast food, this happened every time I closed. As we shut the lights off ins…

It's true that everyone needs to eat to survive. But, as many have noted before us, there are people who eat to live, and then there are the people who live to eat. People like me. In recent years it seems as though a third kind of person has popped up: someone who eats - or cooks - to watch the world burn. You see, these sorts of people are the ones making cringey food , well, a thing. Before the age of TikTok or Reddit, crimes against food were largely private. Now they're everywhere, being m…

Kids go through phases of being little menaces. Sometimes that 'phase' extends into their entire lifetime, bit it's pretty much guaranteed when they're under 10 years old. By the time they're in 2nd or 3rd grade, they think they have the world figured out. They don't need mom and dad telling them what to do anymore and they become indignant, stubborn, picky babies once again.
