Under a Gibbous Moon

Give up?

It’s supposed to be a deep dish pizza. Went to the local Pizza Hut with my wife tonight and instead of a large deep dish pizza we got a large hand tossed pizza. When we asked the waiter about the pizza he went back to check on it. When he came back we had what was probably one of the most awkward conversations he’d had as a server.

Apparently, they were out of large deep dish pizza dough and so, instead of saying anything, they just made a different pizza and hoped that we wouldn’t notice.

Yup, sounds like a plan to me. What makes this hilarious, is that this must be standard Pizza Hut policy because this happened to me better than a decade ago. I forget exactly what I ordered but the toppings were wrong. When asked about it, they said that they were out of the one (sausage if I remember correctly) so we just used this instead (pepperoni if I remember correctly).

Now Pizza Hut, shit happens, I understand that. You run out, things don’t go right, it happens to all of us, but please just be up front. This whole, hope we don’t notice thing turns small problem into a big mistake.

This says to me, “Road trip!”
