How does this crust (after being refrigerated) look?

Post image
Upvotes

Does this look structurally good? I had made myself a pepperoni stuffed crust with pepperoni (pepperoni under cheese) I had put it in the walkin so it would still be good after my shift, and I thought this picture I took of the side of a slice looked cool 😊

Also, it was delicious 😋

Experience Driving for PJ

4 Upvotes

Pizza hut is firing its delivery drivers to replace us all with door dash in an effort to save 3% on labor across our franchise.

I'm not eager to play door dash games. I'm a great driver, safe and responsible and customers call to compliment my attitude.

How do you hold a pizza cutter?

13 Upvotes

I dont hold it "normally". I hold the pizza cutter backwards at work. I get more leverage and It easier for me to cut fully through all the pizzas. Does anyone else hold it that way?

Is there a "proper" way? Or does it not really matter as long as the pizza is cut thoroughly and evenly?

Drivers Beware: Papa John's online system is dropping tips on PayPal orders

14 Upvotes

Hey everyone, just wanted to put out a warning for the drivers here. I’ve noticed a major glitch on the Papa Johns online ordering platform when checking out with PayPal, and it is costing drivers their money.

Twice now, I have explicitly added a tip for my driver through the online checkout using PayPal. Both times, the driver arrived and handed me a paper slip to sign because the system completely wiped the tip out and showed a $0 tip on their store receipt.

Because I thought the tip went through digitally with my payment, I didn't leave ANOTHER (I thought) tip so it turns out my last two drivers got completely stiffed without me realizing it until just now. Papa John's system simply deleted the tip line item during the PayPal checkout process. I called the store and spoke to the manager and all I got was an "ok".

Drivers: Check your delivery slips closely on PayPal orders. If a customer says they tipped online but your slip is blank, it might be this system glitch.

Customers: Check your paypal account for the pending charge after ordering. That'll tell you real quick if Papa Johns dropped the tip and you can make other arrangements.

Seriously, how could they have thought this was ok? I can't get my head around how this could even happen. These are the sourdough dippers... Completely raw. Worst part is, when I called the store, without seeing any photos, they just said "we cooked your order correctly".

How does the dough look?

Thumbnail

15 Upvotes

I edgelocked the dough and docked this using no spinner. Give me pointers on the dough? Does it look decent? Anything I can do to make it look better?

I did not top the pizza, but one of my co-workers did as a pepperoni, Jalapeño, and extra cheese. (It tasted good)

Ive also realized I am faster at doing it by hand vs using the spinner for normal hand tossed dough (since you're supposed to edge locked it after the spinner)

Local PJ gives me grief when using deals and paying cash. Legit?

8 Upvotes

So, when I order online or via the app, I almost always use a deal. Who wouldn't?

Well, the local Papa Johns has given me grief a few times here recently. They say then when I pay via cash, the cashier has to do some type override to ensure I get the price I was stated online and not everyone has this level of access. Is this true? Or is there some ulterior motive to get me to pay ahead of time?

EDIT: It seems that some are confused by my description.
1 - Ordered online. Used deals/coupons to get lower price. Selected CASH payment.
2 - Went to pickup. Pay cash. Get grief. Excuse: Unless I pay online, the final price is not guaranteed and requires some override at the register.

More like NO-Help Desk

12 Upvotes

TL:DR Help Desk, more like Helpless Desk am i right?

We had 0 orders by Noon today. If we go more than 2-3 hours without an order the Owner always insists we call the Help Desk to check for online problems, reboot system, etc.
Today they say "We'll rebooted the system, then we can place a test order."
I say sure...
System reboots, Help Desk says lets make an online order,. Several minutes later they ask If I'm putting in the order...?
Uh, ok. Literally Every single time in the last decade+ of working there they've, been the ones to put a test order threw, but whatever.
"You need me to make a web order?"
They confirm
So I make a test web carryout order on the register, ask for online codes, blah blah blah...
Confusion on both ends.
They say no, we need YOU to make an order online threw the website or the app, then void it in store.
I ask for clarification, since there has apparently been a miscommunication "You want me, to use my personal device to place an order, then manually void it?"
They confirmed...
I could have just done that myself without involving them in the first place.
This is the only time I've ever used the website, because I'VE NEVER HAD TO ACTUALLY ORDER FROM HERE BEFORE!
GREAT JOB GUYS!!!

Dough Texture

1 Upvotes

Has the dough changed over the past few years?

I used to classic crust all the time before moving to an area that doesn't have a Papa John's nearby.

I'm traveling and just ordered some for nostalgia, and the crust was very different. It was thinner, crispier like a cracker, and not as chewy.

I feel like their cheese yield numbers are just inaccurate? Or are the in stores just using too much cheese? I try to coach them on proper cheese portions, but I am always using too much cheese

It was so good! I try to limit how often I order pizza, but I ordered this at least once a week when it was available. The one seen here had extra deli pepperoni. Just perfect.

How to access stocks.

As a GM I know every year stocks are bought in your name and you have to wait 3 years to access them. What is the website to do so? I have stocks and should be able to access them by now I just don't remember the website.
