So I have been driving pizzas for two and a half months now and it really is fun. It has given me lots of time to think, since I spend most of my tine in my truck with pizzas. Yes, I do smell like pizza and my truck me feel like a pizza oven right now but he hits cold outside and i have the heater on. So it feels like an oven and smells like pipping hot pizza, but least it's not the inside of a grimy gym bag. Chauffeuring pizzas can be stressful at times, but really that is only when there are customers that complain that it took 35 minutes, when we say it will take 25-30 minutes. Come on people things change, red lights happen and when you live in a gated community and do not give me the gate code, or there is is no map and I have to just start driving around the apartment complex that takes time. This job has definitely put a positive spin on my life and is really helping me. I am more tired after driving 50-100 miles in a shift but at the same time I am sleeping better and over all just feel more alive and more energetic. There really are only a few down sides to this job, 1) lots of miles on you vehicle 2) When driving and you have to leave you vehicle to go to a house or back into the store and a good song is on the radio 3) We sell Pepsi products. Customer "and I would like a 2-liter Coke" ME: "Sorry Sir we carry Pepsi, is that okay?" I almost always get one of these answers. Customer "I'll take a Dr Pepper then" and I have to say sorry we do not carry Dr Pepper. Or they say something along the lines of "Forget the drinks." That makes me feel so bad because I cant get the customer everything they are asking for.
