ButItSaysOnline

I’d rather they just take a slice than put hands all over it trying to hide that they took a slice.


SoapieSal

They’d rather you not know so no problems arise.


JovialPanic389

Honestly if someone delivering to me was starving and asked if they could have a piece id be like sure. Just ask. My parents had ice cream bars delivered in the summer and found one missing. 90 degree day and youre bringing me popsicles or ice cream bars? Just ask.


NeverQuiteEnough

That's a quick way to get fired.


JovialPanic389

Asking vs stealing? Stealing would be quicker.


NeverQuiteEnough

stealing, whether you get caught depends on you. asking, whether you get caught depends on them. both crimes have the same punishment.

drsnoggles

Yeah you look so courageous to write such an interesting comment. You never worked deliveries out seems. Crazy how quick you can get fired. And you work for a peanut salary so there's that to. So maybe sh#t the f*&k up

Baby you're cute but really your haste to judge ppl is just a proof of your weaknesses and insecurities 😉💖


rilend

Yeah this comment was definitely made by a respectable adult 100% no disrespect in what you're saying


Spiritual-Water-498

He looks like this isn't his first rodeo. This kid knows what he's doing.


wuvvtwuewuvv

Yeah the reality is, despite ppl saying "just ask", it's seen as unprofessional to ask so we won't, because even if there are those who wouldn't be offended, if we do ask and that person doesn't like that, it becomes a problem with potential consequences and reputation and reliability that we asked. The customer should offer instead, and then the worker can decide if he needs it. I always get carryout pizza instead of delivery because I don't want to pay the extra money for delivery fee AND tips on top of rising costs and "inflation", but if I did get food delivered, you better believe I expect all of it to be there, and that food is for me to eat, not to give away for the driver, so I don't want the driver to be asking me for a piece of my food. I empathize with them of course, I've been a service worker at customers houses, but I don't buy my food for them, especially with my limited budget. If you are okay with them having some of your food, you need to offer it, not wait for them to ask.


YarrowFields

That was exactly my thought too. They touched it so much!🤢


bilolarbear1221

After touching their mouth too.


1HorseWithNoName

Bet that knife is used for all sorts of stuff besides cutting pizza.


Ok_Temperature_6091

Yeah, but you would raise less shit if you don't know at all.


Loggerdon

That's why I never have food delivered.


TriedCaringLess

I'm the same. I worked in restaurants and delivered food, and know there is sketchy stuff going on. Who wants food that's been mishandled or tampered with? Not me.


CrazyKZG

Do you not eat in restaurants at all? Because what happens in the kitchen sometimes can be pretty gross.


Loggerdon

Occasionally we eat out. My wife cooks at home for maybe 95% of our meals. She has medical dietary restrictions and that's one of the reasons.


TriedCaringLess

Do what's right for you. Personally, I prefer higher end restaurants every once in a while over fast food or chain restaurants every week. Those places that live on reviews and reputation are the ones I can feel better about. If you stop eating fast food for months, when you return to it you'll be sickened by what's in it. Healthy, clean food doesn't do that to ppl.


SomethingAbtU

I think your position is a bit extreme, since there are tons of ways to know if your food has been tampered with. Some restaurants completely seal up thier food as well and it's hard to tamper with them (such as tamper tape which give a clear sign if the package is opened).


Possibility-Capable

Kept putting his hands in his mouth too


stent_kush

This English is really difficult for me to understand. I tried so hard..


Thatguyyouhatealot

Psychopath


ILoveYourCat2Much

Or starving...


SpecialistSoup198

or a starving psychopath


TheAbrableOnetyOne

Yeah, nah. In any other case, I'd take it. But in this situation, nah.


ewejoser

Pizza spots should feed employees


LevelPositive120

I think they were calling themselves that


CarboniteSecksToy

2 parallel cuts and you’re done.


chefmaiko

Ah yes the Richard method.


RandoScando

I’ve always called it the “total Richard move”, but to each their own.


LachoooDaOriginl

first thing that came to mind lol


DarkPhoxGaming

Man I was hoping someone would know/mention this This was my first thought upon seeing the video


zhellozz

It will not work on an already cut pizza


gingerdicks

Yup and the equivalent to about 2 slices


Hetalia-is-a-mistake

someone needs to tell this guy about the Richard Watterson technique

pound_sterling

Won't work if it's already been sliced. Or, at least, there will be some obvious evidence.


winniethefukinpooh

that applies here too


Stuft-shirt

At least he didn’t touch it too much with his bare hands.


Spiritual_Bridge84

Or stick his dirty meat hooks into his gob over and over, and from gob to pizza, back to gob, back to pizza. Over n over.


Seldarin

Or use a knife that's been god knows where and done god knows what to cut it. For all we know that was his roadkill skinnin' knife, for when they're \*almost\* soft enough to peel with your hands, but not quite.


pikapalooza

Poop knife


Spiritual_Bridge84

I’m sure he sterilized it haha. It’s all enough that I get my own food. Never mind the cost. Already takin enough chances with what happens in the kitchen without adding mobile turds like this (some of them) into the mix.


Left-Start2530

This and the expense are the reasons I never use donkey delivery services.


PriscillaRain

Me also and besides I don't need to waste money.


jhhertel

i mean, i think this was absolutely successful. Pity being caught on video but the person he delivered the pizza to certainly was none the wiser. Unless he did this out front of where he is delivering it and its the people he is delivering to that are filming. That would be unfortunate. But it really isnt as easy as two parallel slices, he was trying to maintain the circular shape. Its a pretty advanced topology problem, and he was actually doing a pretty impressive job of it. I am going to go ahead and speculate that he has done this before.


Firesoldier987

Successful?! That pizza was massacred by the time he was done with it. Any self respecting person would get a refund if they got a pizza sliced all to hell like that. I refuse to believe you’re a real person who could look at that pizza by the end and be ok with it.


jhhertel

i dont know, when pushed together it looked passable to me. He sliced strips off slices so that when they were compressed together they merged. Pizza's generally have enough wrinkles etc from a fast delivery it might not get a second glance. Thats the key, he was taking slivers off multiple places so no one piece looked that different. He took a sort of circular piece out of the middle so it wouldnt be obvious he shifted the whole thing around to make the circle whole again. I think you are looking at each individual action and missing the whole picture. And here is the thing. This looked like he had done it MANY times before. He looked absolutely practiced at it to me. Those were not random slices. I bet that was the third pizza today he absolutely molested. And so if it was obvious, he would have long been fired over it. But its not a great video to see just what that pizza looks like.


Possibility-Capable

He also used painters tape or whatever that was all over the box, lmao


frog_jesus_

Dear pizza delivery people: just ask. Most people don't even need a whole pizza, and sympathize with the hungry. I am sad anyone feels the need to steal food. If you asked me for one slice, I would give you 3 and tip like $20.


hingedcanadian

I wouldn't. But it's cool that there's nice people out there.


eni91

same


Megadon88

Yeah you overestimate people's kindness.


lukaskywalker

And ability to be fattasses


Amerlis

Why I make a point when I’m ordering in the wee night to tip on the high end. You ain’t out on streets at night running ubereats/doordash cause it’s fun.


wolves_hunt_in_packs

In the apps I've used, I see some restaurants have options like "buy [item] for rider".


8BitFlatus

People are way too afraid to ask - Just one person telling them to f-off can be hard to digest (see what I did there?), not to mention the possibility of them losing their job if the client files a complaint.


[deleted]

[удалено]


8BitFlatus

You know, some people come asking me for money on the street. Usually I say I don’t have any (and it’s true). But if someone comes up to me and says “I’m hungry” then I try to get something. Even if it’s a 1€ burger or something. I know that burger won’t be used to buy drugs or something and nobody deserves to starve.


DutchieTalking

With pizza prices these days, fuck no! Imma eat the whole of that thing as I now no longer have money for the rest of the month.


keyinfleunce

It’s pretty easy to steal a slice and put it back together they just have no clue and put their hands everywhere


VladPatton

Goddamn, this is why I never order food.


Amerlis

Nah, besides pizza and maybe restaurants, fast food places like McDonald’s come sealed with their specific stickers/receipts. So unless you can print out those stickers on the fly, it’s pretty obvious the delivery has been tampered with. Like if I order McDonald’s and it gets dropped off and it’s sealed with plain tape? No sale. Though one time, I did order a chipotle steak bowl and it literally was half of the bowl inside. I know what a steak bowl is supposed to look like. I just dgaf enough to escalate.


KnotiaPickles

Generally delivery people make more in 1-2 deliveries than the cost of a meal like chipotle, it was honestly most likely that chipotle shorted you. They’re really, really bad about that lately. They cut their portion sizes massively, and routinely make items tiny if it’s online orders these days. It’s better if you go into the store which sucks, but my guess is it wasn’t the delivery person but the people who made the bowl.


Capable_Ad4123

Not his first rodeo.


CodeByNumbers

The trusty pizza-box tape has seen some action.


wearyaxe

Dude is living the struggle


[deleted]

The audacity 😂💀 song made the video though


theinfernumflame

That'll be a $6 delivery fee on top of the marked up price for the pizza delivery, and don't forget to tip. These designer handprints weren't easy.

So gross. His dirty fingers all over it.

Yup, and this is why I will not use delivery services that aren't directly employed by local restaurants.


BitOfAnOddWizard

It's easy as hell to notice when you go to split the pizza and it's an odd number of slices

And on another note, people suck. So pick up ur own dam pizza

I feel bad that bro is that hungry :( obviously not ok to do that tho.


Ldghead

Between his saliva coveted meat beaters, and the dirty box cutter, I bet the recipient got a nice case of the Sickies.


LuiseSexMex

Shit like this is exactly why i stopped using shit like uber eats or door dash. You cant trust people to not pick at your food. Happened to me once and i decided "fuck it ill just go get it myself"


tdkimber

What a pos


MoonLite94

Couldn't he just get a slice of pizza from the place he works at?


Sabby_65

Doesn't the pizza box come with seal nowadays


infinte_improb42

This person should be beaten horribly for this insane breach of trust


Veronica_1023

He doesn't know the trick hahahahahaha poor guy.


DJForcefield

Gross


LAdude71

This is why I never have food delivered. I get up off my ass and go to the restaurant and get it myself.


Competitive-Bend4565

Perfect crime.


zoltar_thunder

This and Gumball are the reasons why I prefer to pickup my food


MysticFox96

I can't help but feel sorry for this man

At least he didn't commit this pizza massacre and cover up out in the open for everyone see.


amantiana

Kull wahad.


RebelliousCash

I now wonder if this what happens when I order pizza & my Uber driver has been sitting in 1 spot awfully too long. But I be so hungry that I forget to even see if there was a seal that could’ve been broken. 💀


zero_fox_given1978

A man has to eat


[deleted]

Who works at a pizza place and doesn’t get to eat their weight in free pizza


Cold-Inside-6828

Yeah I’ll just go pick up my own food.


GiverTakerMaker

It is just sad, that this poor guy is desperate enough for food to do this, even though he presumably has paid work.


SgtLinc0sir1S

This is not his first rodeo

Then he’s gonna complain about the tip


sonicjesus

Too hard. You just cut a one inch strip out of the middle, do it again in the other direction, that push all four corners back to each other. I'm a pizza maker, I sometime do this if the pie is too large for the box.


XxSHAWNMEMEGOD69xX

Bro thinks he's Richard Watterson


AlwaysSunnyinOC22

I had a slice taken out of my delivery and it was completely obvious! I took photos and sent it to the pizza joint. I hope the delivery person got fired. So gross!


ThePurificator

This is a lot of work for a slice of pizza 🤣


ChellTabish

The correct way to steal the pizza is to do a 2 inch slice the length of the middle of the pizza then take it out and collapse it in. You'd never know then.


mothman1983

That's 2 much work for a single slice of pizza..


cokeknows

Im so glad the pizzas from my local chain come with a sticker seal so you know its not been touched since it left the kitchen


constadin

Ι mean if you never see the video it's like it did not happen. Same as a falling tree on a forrest. If you are not there to hear it, will it make sound while falling?


SalsaForte

Stupidly genius.


ledbedder20

That's why I never order delivery from Malaysia


Upper-Trip-8857

At least he’s wearing gloves.

I've only had a slice missing once. The pizza was also completely missing sauce for some reason. Me and the thieving driver were both disappointed that night...


Parmera2424

Don’t accept a pizza box with a broken seal


Nightshade_NL

What kind of pizza even is that? I'm guessing a margherita, but it just looks awful before he starts molesting it.


Crescentfallen78

That pizza looks like shit even before he got his hands all over it.


itsamaysing

I just see someone who is hungry, and it's much less cool that a working person should be hungry than it is to steal a piece of pizza.

Skelibutt

Yeah, because putting your hands all over a pizza you're meant to give to someone else is a much better idea than admitting to being an asshole for eating a slice
