I worked at Domino's in college and one of our regulars would order online and just check off every topping available, which was 24 if you include the various cheeses. Looked like you just emptied the sink's food trap on to the pizza. We had to run the thing through the oven twice just to make sure it cooked through. He must have liked it because he ordered it at least 3 times a month.
I never minded too much, he was a nice guy and tipped well but it look disgusting.
When I worked at a deli, there was a regular that came in about 2-3 times a month; occasionally with his family. He'd order a roast beef sandwich on sliced wheat with extra everything (mayo, mustard, pickles, onions, pepperoncini, lettuce, tomato). The sandwich stacked up very tall on that tiny sliced bread, and I got really good at making his sandwich to keep it all structurally sound.
That guy always came in with the biggest smile on his face, tipped well, and it made me always happy to serve him. I'd actually have a better day knowing I made his sandwich well.
When I worked in fast food I never minded the regulars with off orders. As long as they understood we understood. Usually after a few times it's kind of like "yeah, you like some weird shit. We'll get it made."
The ones who would pretentiously explain their order though could get a bit irritating. I realize that when I wasn't on shift the people who filled in might mess up. BUT, if I've made your order one or two times every week for the past 6 months with no mistakes just trust me. Plus if me or my crew ever messed up I made sure we gave out free shit.
Ok story time. Years and years ago I worked as a baker making bagels. If we got slammed I would sometimes go to front line to help clear the line and then go back to baking. Well one Saturday it was really busy, I get called up to the line and start knocking out orders.
My system was to repeat what the customer said back to them to make sure that’s what they wanted. Well dressed lady orders a bagel with ham and cheese. I say to her ‘ Bagel with ham and cheese’ and then I make it in front of her. Hand it down the line and keep going. She’s at the register where she complains that that’s not what she wanted. She comes back, now says she wants a ham and cheese with egg on the bagel. Cool. I say back to her ‘ Ham and cheese with egg on bagel’ she confirms again. As I finish wrapping it she says, ‘ I wanted cream cheese on it too ‘
Keep in mind we are slammed and I now believe that this lady is just messing with me to mess with me. I look at her and say ‘ that’s not what you asked for, this time or last time, I’m done helping you.’ And I moved on to the next customer.
I'm a former Papa John's employee myself. I worked there back in the late '90s when it was still good. The thing most people don't understand about ordering multiple toppings, is the more toppings you order the less of each one you get. This sounds counterintuitive because you're paying more money for each one, but they actually cheat you a little bit more each time you add a topping.
A single topping has to fill up the whole pizza, two toppings has to fill up less space, three toppings has to fill up even less, and so on and so forth. Papa John's used portion cups based on how many toppings a person ordered. Now rarely did anyone use them, but I'm just explaining how these greedy corporations think.
It does make sense though. There's only so much real estate on a single pizza. If you're going to pay an extra $2-$2.50 per topping, you're going to get a lot less of each one if you order multiples (portion cups or not). I usually limit myself to 2-3 toppings, unless there is a deal on a Supreme.
Yeah, that is very true. It's definitely the way things worked at Dominos. But the portion cups that people rarely use don't account for more than about 6 toppings. They don't expect anyone to be putting on 12 or 20+.
That's why the guy I talked about had this stupid expensive medium pizza.
Bro is that my receipt!? Lmao i legit ordered this multiple occasions with subtle variations no exaggerations but pass them my compliments as it was deliciousness.
Not a chance. I worked at a pizza place years ago, it was actually when internet ordering first started at Papa John's. People went all crazy with it when it was still new, and we'd regularly have to call people to tell them that ordering every topping will make a mush with uncooked dough in the middle, or that ordering 4x pineapple with 4x ham will get you a soup rather than a pizza, and half barbecue sauce half ranch ends up mixing in the middle and not tasting great. Theoretically you could do a pizza like this right, but seriously like 3 olives, 4 slices of mushrooms, 5 pineapple chunks, etc. You have to cut down the amount of each topping by a ton, yet still get charged full price for them
At Papa John's, sure. You're using absolute shite for ingredients on frozen garbage dough that might as well be rubber.
A proper pizzaiolo using high-quality ingredients is completely different. A pie stacked high with high quality ingredients on freshly made dough cooked in a good pizza oven is fantastic.

Looks like a very expensive pizza.
Yeah, it was $27 or something for the medium, in 2009. Before tip and delivery charge.
DAAAAAAAAAMN! That's a salad. They ordered a really gross salad on bread.
'04 Domino's employee right here!

Yeah, eccentric but nice people are kinda the best! I'd have loved to see one of those sandwiches.

What we need is the Papa's Pizzeria system where you specify how many individual pepperonis you want.
I had to look it up. I guess that's a video game?
Someone picked up a triple cheese pizza when I went to pick up mine.
Thing looked like it was bending the pizza spatula
It sounds good to me but at that point it’s basically a casserole
Broccoli, seasoned potatoes, olives and Parmesan sound terrible with pineapple
55 tomatoes, 55 mozzarella, 55 cheddar, 55 feta, 55 parmesan, 100 basil, 100 mushrooms, 100 pineapple, 100 onions, 100 jalapeños, 55 olives, 55 broccoli, 55 peppers, 55 garlic, 55 artichokes, and 155 seasoned potatoes.
Are you a pregnant elephant?
Stop! He’s doing something here!
Are they done, its been about an hour. I just arrived and the math has phased me into another dimension
Screams in AI
it’s a reference
Are you ok? Need a hug?
How embarrassing for you
Lost a few make-believe points to a group of strangers. I couldn't care less.
Congratulate him, he has unlocked Pizza Casserole (Hard Mode).
There’s too much shit on
Never enough, no stuffed crust tho
Some very stoned young people ordered this. They’ll be giggling about how gross it is
Bro is that my receipt!? Lmao i legit ordered this multiple occasions with subtle variations no exaggerations but pass them my compliments as it was deliciousness.
Are you from Toronto? 😳
Lmao no but i am another dasher who orders ridiculous pizza because some places dont charge for toppings. Not my fault they threaten me with options.
Yes shame themmmmmm
<right-click> Select All.
So much clashing imo
Wife: Honey go get these groceries please
husband leaves house
Husband to self: fck it I'll just get her a pizza.
What did the Buddhist say to the pizza chef?
Make me one with everything
Please tell me these are all separate charges
r/pizzacrimes would like a word.
That’s what’s up. RIP Gothic King Cobra
Where is picture of pizza?
I don’t have a picture, I found someone else’s receipt on the floor
It looks crazy but a pie like this can actually be quite succulent.

As someone that worked in pizza for fives years, that shit is NOT gonna bake all the way through. It’s gonna be floppy and nasty. 🤢
stupid and gluttonous for sure, but id eat the heck out of it
Someone must have smoked the whole Amazon forest
This just sounds like MOd pizza. It’s delicious
That wouldn’t be stupid if it was like a 50” pizza. Might work? 🤷♂️
Could be good as a deep dish pizza
The deepest dish of them all
thats a whole grocery list
I'm just going to pretend that's on the pizza too.
Pineapple on pizza is still weird to me
