Delivery story 114

It was a normal evening and I was delivering pizza to a party. They tipped decently enough. When I left, some drunk next door said he wanted a pizza. I was polite and said, "Sir, if you will call Pizza Hut I will deliver out to you." He replied in a mean and drunken voice, "No. I want one for free and I want it now." Well, I was in a good mood and not the type of guy to be rude. So I responded, "I'm sorry, sir. You will have to order your pizza and pay for it if you want it." He got mad and threw his beer bottle and hit me in the head. Then I was mad. I was bleeding and on the ground. I got up and walked over to him. He asked me what I was going to do and said since I was working, I would get fired. At the time I didn't care. I tore him up. Fortunately, I didn't get fired.

I enjoy my job. That is why I still work there. My best experience was when I was going to a nice neighborhood. I was maybe five minutes early. It was an old guy who lived by himself so I sat and talked to him for a few. We were slow so I had about 5-10 minutes to spare. When I went to leave, he gave me a 200 dollar tip. I could not believe it, but he did. That was awesome because anybody who is a delivery driver knows we need every dime we can get because most of us live off of our tips.
