I’m pretty sure none of the people behind this keep the sabbath, either.
It’s a little like advertising chocolate with 20% fewer insect pieces.
So Alex Jones was 👌 this close?
What about their fanatical devotion to the pope?
Maybe he’s looking for protection when he gets exiled.
I was in the 45th cleavage division back in ‘nam.
Sweet, thanks.
It may be a little niche, but I’d bet plenty of people will use it. I’m in the middle of a personal research project, and it would make things so much easier for me. I’m currently grouping my tabs by having multiple windows open…
Damn, that sucks. I haven’t watched any of their shit in several years, now I wish I had. All the best to the team in the future.
I was just trying to point out that not everyone has a computer they can “just” backup to.
You get a free computer with purchase of an iPhone? Neat!
I’m not sure she grasps sarcasm very well.
“How much does it cost to go outside today?”
“Hmm… the weather is nice and it’s a weekend, so we’re at peak rates today. Did you want to go somewhere or just stay in the yard, they’re running a special on staying within RentCo property lines.”
Tritties?
He should have to use the name he was assigned at birth!
I was trained to do this in the navy 20-odd years ago (not SEALs) and we wore an inflatable vest that wasn’t very cumbersome. I don’t know what they use today or if SEALs use something different, but I’d be willing to bet they have something beyond just their training.
It’s staggering how many people assume things without looking into them. In this case, it’s a corporation called Pac Pizza, LLC and makes over $25 million per year that’s doing the layoffs. I think they can pay their delivery drivers an extra $4 (according to the USA Today article linked above) per hour.
If they had to pay all of their less than 500 employees (according to the Zoominfo page linked above) the extra $4 per hour, and they all worked full time, 40-hour weeks all year, the company would have to pay just over $4 million in extra wages.
Assuming the franchises make the low end of the estimated revenue linked above, $4.5 million would be 16% of the total. Increasing prices by 16% to cover that cost is far less than the approximately 40% customers end up paying when using third-party delivery services.
All in all, this sure seems like the franchise corporation (probably in cahoots with Pizza Hut proper) is just using these delivery jobs as a political stunt in opposition of the mandated wage increase.
Here’s the takeaway, though. Any employer, including but not limited to mom-and-pop businesses, that can’t afford to pay its employees a living wage should not be in business.

Additionally, not covering it would allow them to grow, evolve, and plan in the dark.
