I agree…while my mom knows what a debit card/check card is, she’s 71 and refuses to get one. She’d rather someone forge a check than to have access to her cash flow immediately, and you know, I don’t blame her thinking there.

I am going to be honest, and a bit blunt. PLEASE do not take anything directed as personal, because it is not intended to be such, and under this new pain medicine I have…well, I will try to make this as to the point as possible. I am learning a LOT while I am sitting here at home nursing this...

If you didn’t know you’ve missed a payment, I strongly urge you to review your payment account’s ledger and make sure you really DID miss a payment. It seems suspect that they knew where to find you via certified mail, which should have been done within MONTHS of the payment not being there…not...

Well, I just do the apron washing out of gratitude. I mean, previously mentioned quirks aside…I do enjoy my job, and my employer…so if I can wash the aprons and save him some money that can be used on marketing or other equipment…why not? Right now, I’m not able to do my shift manager job...

Unforeseen circumstances aside…my husband’s teeth are bad…BAD, and he’s broken a tooth eating pizza. It can happen…but I suspect it’s more “bad teeth” or a mis-bite than it is your food.

After the apron strings are dry (yes, I hand wash those seperately being the aprons get the machine), take one end of the apron string and put it underneath the shirt clip of a ball point pen. Put the pen in the hole and bunch the “canal” of the apron to where the pen top comes out the other...

You can also go buy some cheesecloth and moisten it, and lay it on the dough to help retain the moisture until ready to use.

I remove the apron strings and hand-wash them and drip dry.

All kitchen help wears aprons in our store. They are given to the employees to wear and take home, then there is a “surplus” of them at the store as well. I wash the aprons and hang them up weekly, even still, even though I’m not able to work…it’s the least I can do to still feel “useful”...

Another way to get the shot you want is to invite as many friends and family over and take pictures of them for your website that way…or even all of your off duty employees (take it after hours maybe???) for the “background noise” while focusing on a certain few that aren’t employees for the...

Another thing I want to add… If you’ve never done this before and never worked in pizza (making an assumption because I don’t know you yet, I mean no offense by this), let your employees know up front that their ending time varies each day due to business demands. That goes both ways…they may...

I could see that at a gas station or somewhere else that wanted a lot of sauce (the demo video looked like way more than we ever put on a pie) and wanted the line perfect, but I agree…I could have at least 5 large pies sauced according to PJ standards in the time it takes that machine to do...

Papa John’s sells whole wheat crust in addition to the normal line. But, our area isn’t really that “health conscious”…in the next town over, they sell really well…but the next town over is a really large town with more “trendy” of consumers than our small town. It is good, but it tends to be...

I completely agree. I have no problem politely telling the customer when they ordered according to our POS, and most often, the pies are already on the road when they call, and that’s well within the time frame. I ask them to call me back in 10 minutes if the order hasn’t arrived so I can...

Hey, another Scion wrap 🙂 I will tell you this…our franchise has a wrapped Scion, and he has started taking slices to car shows in it, and it really gets attention!

I hate to say I agree. In my area, “all”, and I mean “all” the pizzerias I’ve been to (including our PJ), a veggie consists of the following: Onions, Green Peppers, Mushrooms, Black Olives. 2 places do not have tomatoes standard, the rest do have tomatoes standard. NO ONE has any sort of...

IMO, I cannot stand meat on a “Greek” pizza. I love the combination of the veggies and cheeses. But, of course, society is more carnivore…so they want meat. I always wonder why the meat almost always is chicken? How about some steak strips…at Greek restaurants, you see lamb or steak strips and...

We sell a square pan at Papa John’s. It’s only successful at our location when we have a sale. It’s got a great flavor, but the way it’s cut, people think they’re getting cheated over a traditional round pie.

Next closest one is 30 miles round trip. Just can’t see the reasoning in traveling for a pizza job, unless I was the GM or AM.

Thanks all. The only problem is, that nutty woman who shouted at me in the past is now the ‘marketing’ person…so I know that they will probably say we have enough people in marketing…even though I KNOW that I would do a much better job than she ever would. I mean, I had to tell her what the...
