When I was about 20, I worked for a Domino's in the early '90s while going to school at UNC in Greeley, Colorado. The town was still pretty small, so our delivery area included some neighboring towns, including Evans. Evans is just south of Greeley.
I was making a delivery and was approaching the door, which was open, and had a screen door. As I neared the door, I could see a man inside, sitting in a chair, and it looked like he was watching a nature show. He was wearing a white t-shirt. I knocked on the door and he looked up and calmly told me to "hang on." As he got up from his chair, I realized that he had no pants on. Just a t-shirt. Nice. It was as if he thought that putting a t-shirt on for the driver was the proper thing to do, but being nude from the waist down was fine.
He then made me wait while he wrote a check, right in front of me. He crouched down. (Remember the crouching in the "Bad Naked" episode of Seinfeld? This was definitely the bad kind.) He crouched down and knelt on one knee, in front of me, to write the check. I tried not to look, but I couldn't help but notice that the guy was a natural red head to boot. I stayed an arm's length away as he handed me the check, which I quickly snatched in exchange for his pizza.
I ran back to my car, drove back to the store, and told my boss, who was a dickhead in general. His reaction was to shrug his shoulders and say, "... so?" Needless to say, I only worked there for a total of two weeks. It makes a great story to tell people whenever someone mentions the pizza delivery business to me. They always groan at the "natural redhead" remark, too. LOL.
