the tale of free jimmy's
last night nate decided we should order jimmy’s pizza instead of going to red lobster (my first clue that this was going to be bad – pizza instead of lobster).
well, we ordered, and all was good for about a half an hour. the manager called and told me that he accidentally made a thin crust instead of a deep dish (bleah on the thin crust) so we would get both pizzas for the price of the deep dish. woo for a free pizza! so he said it would be out the door in 15 mintues.
45 minutes later, we were wondering where the pizza was, so nate called to find out. turns out, it had just left like 5 minutes ago (???). so, we wait another 20-25 minutes. no pizza. we call, and the manager didn’t know what was going on. the driver didn’t have a cell phone, so no contact. 10 mins later, the manager calls and says the driver couldn’t find the place. understandable, my place is kinda tricky cuz there’s 2 Washington Memorial Drives, totally not connected. so nate gives him detailed directions, and the dude tells him that he’s going to throw in a take-n-bake too. finally the driver finds our place – after starting out across the street and nate yelling out the door that we were over here, we handed him a $5 tip and ate our pizza. not too shabby! a $40 value!!
i’m going to recommend red lobster next time nate wants to order jimmy’s. 🙂
