Since Wed April 12, 1995 4:30 pm,

One of my stories if you want the long version..

I drove into work at Dominos like the previous 6 1/2 years. Now anyone who has ever walked thru a bar at 12:45 looking for who ordered this pizza knows how stressful this can be. I worked 5:00 pm till 2-3 am in the city.

It is not so much the public (I learned in over 30,000 deliveries, that anyone, even Charlie Manson for example (if I was delivering to Spawn Ranch hehe) could be dealt with. People, almost always treat you the way you treat them for that first impression. Yes you have to kiss lots of ass but you walk out in one piece.

But you get tired.. That is the hardest part of any job.. keeping the hours.

I used to come home so angry sometimes I would scream and yell at the walls. Yes I had a few people where things went wrong. Stress baby. (The "what went wrong" stories.. that's another thread

Anyhow I spent 30 mins taking very complicated orders. For some reason the owner was in and gave me some guff about a small mistake. (Even tho only someone of my knowledge at that point could take all these orders without making an address mistake or an ingredient mistake.

I took one run. I boiled over. I came back, through the hotbag down and said I'm out of here. No 2 week notice.

So I burned that bridge. No past employer recommendation for me.

I floated around and gambled for a year, then came the internet.

Today.. as the one guy said, failure is not an option.

The great thing is, little did I know on 4/12/95 as I was driving home thinking wtf did I just do, ( I was well liked and a top employee at a pretty kushy job at that point) I could have just went to Network Solutions and got some great domains. It showed me there is always opportunity somewhere, you just don't know about it.
