no 30 minute guarantee here

… operator … information … don’t try to tell me … what number to call …

I’m lucky enough to have a phone number that’s very similar to a Domino’s Pizza in my neighborhood. So, on a weekly basis, I get a call or two asking “is this Domino’s?” Usually, I politely let them know that, no, it’s not their pizza place, and that they have the wrong number.

Tonight, I took an order. “That’ll be $14.95. It’ll be there in 30 to 35 minutes. Have a nice night.”

I wonder if they’ll hit redial in about an hour and leave me a nasty message on my voicemail.

    Damnit, now I know why I never got my pizza…

    So you never told me if they called back. You should have asked them if they wanted any Newcastle with their order.

    Nope, no follow-up phone call. Maybe I should sell my phone number to Pizza Hut.
