kevlar body armor was developed by a pizza delivery guy
Well yeah, but he was also an ex marine lol
Though he did get the idea after successfully defending himself in an armed robbery attempt while delivering pizza.
well now, how about that
It’s also really, really easy to lose your job as a pizza delivery person.
How so? I’ve never done pizza delivery, but is it due to customers who wish to pay in other ways?
Turnover is already high due to shitty work conditions and low pay, but most franchises will also look for reasons to fire so they can keep wages low.
A few minutes later than the customer wants but still within reasonable time? Oooh sorry they called to complain so we have to give you a strike.
Customer doesn’t want to pay? Tough shit, you shouldn’t have given them the pizza without getting paid and that’s two strikes.
You were 30 seconds late according to the managers watch which is 3 minutes fast as proven by everyone’s cellphones and the wall clock? Too bad, fired.
And I’m not exaggerating. I’m just giving a real-world example.
Including the manager’s watch one?
Especially that one. Seriously.
Ultimately I was just done and had already been looking for another job, so I just went ahead and dropped the shit on the floor and spent the rest of the day chilling at the park. I even had witnesses to the insane bullshit.
pizza delivery guys don’t get qualified immunity
“here is 6 months access to my onlyfans”
Know a guy whose friend murdered.a guy and didn’t get paid leave or nothing. Straight up fired.
Not to mention the risk of being frozen for a thousand years.
Pizza delivery people have to get out of their car in any weather. Cops only have to get out of their car if they feel like it. Also, cops don’t have to buy their own gas.
And it really does contribute to society
I feel like “The thin crust line” would work better than “The thin bread crust”.
I was robbed a lot when I delivered pizza.
And soon to be you will find them employed by the Mafia betting their own whole life upon the success of a 30 minute delivery.
And don’t touch the Snow Crash.
Except at that point the Mafia are somehow supposedly the good guys?
kinda hard to be worse than the police …
The best franchise!
Uncle Enzo isn’t going to let you down unless you let him down first.
No one is “good” just “good at” anyone saying otherwise is literally using religion to lie to you about being the very delusion of anyone that is “good.”
Found the morality relativist.
I am not a relativist. Though there is something specific to which I relate my development of skills towards.

Driving a car is why both are dangerous.
Edit: look up the most dangerous jobs BLS stats, and most common cause of death for almost all jobs is transportation related.
Other people driving is the dangerous part, hence garbage collection and postal delivery being near the top of the list.

You have to define danger and timeframe. Here are some calculations.
Indeed. Iirc I contributed heavily to that thread with sources and it’s simply not true almost any way you slice it.
The closest proximity is using accidental vehicle deaths but it completely discounts the fact delivery drivers mostly deliver in town where speeds are low.
Unfortunately there’s no good data tracking for gig work yet which would be the nearest parable.
E: I was not lazy and found my old comment for sauce.
Police were more likely to be killed by violence than most other positions (which are almost always accident/negligence related), although somewhat ironically their most likely cause of death in 2021 was covid
Just…WOW. In case anyone was wondering about how fucked the US police are.
Yeah I’m just exhausted tolerating you cop hating retards. You’re so far gone you’re arguing in bad faith and using literally any bottom of the barrel numbers to say the dumbest bullshit.
Me?! Check my post history
