      for real. reminds me of that story about some boomer coming to a Little Caesars and ordering a pizza. They told him it would be 10 minutes until it was ready, so he walked out to his car, got a gun, and came back in threatening to shoot up the place and everyone in it unless they gave him the first available pizza.

      obviously these are heinous responses under any circumstances, but like... 10 minutes? these brains are cooked.

        10 minutes is like normal pizza time. My local guy once sighed heavily before he told me it would be... 15 minutes, boss
        He was so sad about it

          Last week I went to a pizza shop to place a takeout order and they said it would be TWO HOURS. One pizza and an order of bread sticks. I was baffled.

            That's crazy. Possible reasons why:

            • Oven broke
            • New guy broke
            • Don't wanna work
            • Received order for a gazelleon pizzas
            • Need to go get ingredients
