I get dispatched on a distance delivery. I roll up to the crappy apt building and enter. first off I see the apt I am supposed to deliver to slightly ajar. OK maybe they are waiting for me. I knock
No answer. I wait for 30 seconds and knock again. no answer. OK maybe they are occupied such as taking a dump or calming down the kids, etc.
Following my general rule ie. a couple of door knocks/doorbell rings + no answer = call the customer. I dial the number on the ticket and get voice mail. I leave my standard message about an order bein placed from this number and no one is answering the door. I return to my car and get in. 2 minutes later I get a call from the number. the caller askes who I am.
me - Pizza delivery person.
her - well I did not order any pizza tonight.
me - well this is the number I have on the ticket and the address is 123 moron street apt 2
her - hmmmmmm that is my number but not my address. that sounds like my daughter's address.
me - <thinking OK what is your daughter doing using your phone number when ordering pizza> well if that is your daughter's address no one is answering the door and the door is open.
her - let me call my daughter and see what is up
then I hear a tapping on my window. I look and see a woman walking past my car. I roll down my window and she says "I ordered delivery." I bid the mother goodbye and follow the woman into the building. as I enter the building she slams the apt door in my face. I stand there for a second expecting it to re-open and the delivery to take place.

I knock on said apt door and no one answers. I wait and knock again. the door opens and the transaction gets completed.
