Through the Eyes of a Delivery Goddess





Below you will find links to dates when new entries are added. The stories will not necessarily be in chronological order, but rather as I remember them. I am dating them so that you can skip to new ones you haven't read since the last time you visited, and so that you are more easily able to find something you found humorous to share with others.



My Pizza STINKS!!


This incident did not actually happen to me, but it's too good not to share. I dated a fellow in college who was delivering pizzas to help pay for his college tuition. The nice thing about working for a pizza shop that's privately owned - you're probably getting paid under the table, and the shop owner doesn't know who you are if you get into an accident. That means that all of your friends can come along and harrass you while you drive around all night. One night, with a Jeep Wagoneer (for those of you old enough to remember those) full of friends, another friend ordered a pizza. When they got to the house, everyone got out to go see this mutual friend. They were in the house, probably about fifteen minutes, and when they came back out to the Jeep, all four doors were hanging wide open, and a skunk had found his way in, looking for a good meal of junkfood. This wasn't like the time he'd found a litter of kittens in his Jeep, or the time someone's kid hid behind the back seat and suprised him a few blocks from the kids house - this was a SKUNK!!! By the time they were done trying to "shoo" it out with a broom, they all stunk like skunk. They bought every can of tomato juice on the shelf at Giant Eagle. The seats were stained but still stunk, and it was days before it started to wash out of their hair. The driver was afraid the pizzas would stink, but his dad didn't want him using his car to deliver, so, with the windows all down and the fan blowing full blast, he delivered stinky pizzas for a few weeks until the smell finally just worked it's way out of the seats and carpets.

I'm not sure if I should be sorry I missed that delivery, or not???
