  • I hate 14 year olds

    Last delivery of the night. Thank GOD a short run

    I arrive at the address which is an apartment building. I buzz the indicated apartment. The door buzzer goes off and I proceed in. The man who answers the door appears puzzled. I ask him if he ordered red roof pizza.

    NCus = non customer
    me


    NCUS - "I did not order pizza. Are you sure you are at the correct address?"

    me - The ticket says the order is going to 1234 Able AVE apt 123 (which IS the address I am at and show him the ticket).

    NCUS - "Well I did not order pizza and yes that is my address......... I wonder if my daughter ordered...........but she is not here.........and she does not have any money."

    me - I am very sorry for bothering you. I will call the phone number on the ticket and verify the address. Again I am very sorry for bothering you.

    I head back outside to call the store to talk to the MOD who took the order. As I am dialing, the man goes outside.

    I call the store and the MOD verifies that the address was indeed the one given over the phone.

    I then call the phone number on the ticket. a young girl answers. I verify that someone at that number ordered pizza and then ask them to verify the address.

    YG - giggly 14 year old
    me - who else

    YG - my address is 1234 Able ave apt 123.
    me - I am sorry but the person who answered the door at that address says they did not order pizza.
    YG - BUT I ordered pizza and a soda and THAT IS MY ADDRESS.
    me - Again I am sorry but the person who answered the door at that address says they did not order pizza.
    YG - BUT THAT IS MY ADDRESS.........OH SHIT.........My dad was asleep and you woke him...........and we are OUTSIDE
    <in the background I can hear the man talking on his cellphone saying something to the effect of " YOU ORDERED PIZZA AND YOU ARE NOT HERE. YOU HAD BETTER GET HOME ASAP. CALL ME BACK.>

    YG - OHHHHHHHHHH we are outside. We will be right there. <click>

    3 young girls come running out of the darkness and Dad corners them. He starts asking how they could order pizza with no money. "Oh we saw Grandpa and he gave us money".

    Dad -- WELL you have made this driver wait. NOW pay the man and get inside.

    They hand over the money. One of them starts to ask for their change back but Dad shoots them a REALLY dirty look and they shut up real fast.
    I'm lost without a paddle and headed up SH*T creek.

      Teenagers are stupid, that's just the way it is. But with a father like that, I have good hope that she'll turn out okay eventually.
      You gotta polish a memory like a stone. Chip off the parts that remind you it was just a game. Work it until it's indistinguishable from any other memory.

        When I was 14 I wouldn't have dared to even order a pizza. My mom would have kicked my ass...lol.

          Wait, I'm confused. Were the kids home or not
          As a fellow delivery driver, I've had this happen a couple of times.... Someone orders pizza and then another person answers the door and says they didn't order. Kudos to the dad for chewing their butts out and making sure the driver got a decent tip.

            Good for dad! I agree, with a dad like him, I think this girl will turn out just fine.

              Sounds like they were there but outside the building somewhere...

                I always called them "My yard yipe'rs." when they misbehaved.

                  Hell, I didn't even use the telephone, let alone order a pizza at that age. I knew better than to act that stupid and silly.

                  Besides, I watched the other teenagers in the neighborhood so I would know how NOT to act. Every last one of them were dingbats.

                    A lot of 14 year old girls have marshmallow for brains. I should know; I was one a loooooooong time ago. The good news is, most of them outgrow it

                      Kinda outgrow it...specially when enough of use together can make a marshmallow brain and then it spreads and we get goofy as a group.

                        .
                        No they were not home (meaning at Dad's apt). Apparently they were at the next apt building over (a 4 flat apt building) chillin at someone else's house.
