Do you understand the concept?????

[Racket_Man]

setting the scene: you are at a hotel. you get hungry wading around in the huge waterpark all afternoon.
PIZZA you say.
you call RM's pizza place and order your cheesey goodness.
RM tells you the total and advises you how long delivery will be. he also advises yoiu that HE will need to call the room you are in because of the hotels security policy and you need to come down to the front desk to pick up your order.
you acknowledge and agree to that condition.
all is well.

now what do you do????
A - have someone (preferably an adult) sit patiently in the room with the required funds and await the call?
B - Decide to have even more fun in the waterpark whilst waiting for you cheesey goodness?
C - leave a 7 year old in the room with some funds to pay for your order?
D - decide to leave your room and wander around the hotel for more than a few minutes????
E - decide that the hotel bar is the best place to be RIGHT NOW?????

If you answered anything BUT A you are a normal guest in this hotel.

now let us break this down even further.
you call and order delivery food.
you are given an ESTIMATED delivery time.
even it the hotel DOES premit a delivery driver to go DIRECTLY to your room,
YOU NEED TO BE IN THAT ROOM SO YOU CAN RECEIVE YOUR ORDER!!!!! just in case the store was able to get your order out faster than anticipated.

When I read this one, I pictured this scene.

And this made me think of the character Fnar from the webcomic Jack
Here he is early on He's adorable

I'd choose B, C AND D. Leave the kid with a good tip, though, and hope he's not smart enough to keep the tip for himself.

yes this exactly. it has happened (I think I might have posted it some time ago) ie. Mommy and Daddy and other have meandered off to the waterpark and left the 7 YO in the roomALONE WITH THE MONEY

I kid you not. nice way to use your child as a stiff shield as the kid handed me EXACT change for the order.

There have been several reports on this forum of kids having been given enough money for a tip, but deciding to keep the tip money for themselves. One can only hope that one day they too will be stiffed while delivering pizza.

Wow, someone wanted their 7 year old to be abused, kidnapped or killed. Talk about bad parents.

I just lost about 4 hours of my life to an archive binge of that wonderfully demented comic >_< and I'm still not sure how far in I am...

Thanks!

I most likely posted a few of those type stories as I was the poor driver who was "vicitmized" by these type of little lying thieving SMILING (yes the all knowing smile of "HAHAHAHA I'm KNOWINGLY stealing your money and you can't do ANYTHING about it) little shits.

my hope is that when they get to be old enough TO get a job, that karma will teach them a good enough lesson. like let THEM deal with some screaming SC who accuses them of "stealing" and I am there to witness it in person.

otherwise

Sounds like you deliver to Tundra Lodge.
