Kinda wonder if the workers knew the guys that ordered the pizza or something.

It's not exactly a scary offense lol.

Well, we wrote some stuff on the box while making pizza's for them isn't exactly a plot for the next Avengers movie.

It wasn't even anonymous in that the brain trust were immediately caught.

Something just doesn't add up.

Absolutely on target. I'm sure that these actions, if they were taken by employees, were against Pizza Hut policy.

Further, these customers weren't damaged except to the extent they wouldn't have wanted to eat the pie.

Give them $10 and a couple of complementary pies if they want them. Maybe agree to send out an operations memo to all of their stores re-codifying the corporations zero-tolerance policy for swastikas.

In my Area, pizza hut demographic, the average Pizza hut customer is black.


I get pizza from local pizza makes and hate corporate pizza like dominoes and pizza hut and what not.

Speaking of blacks, I want fried chicken !

Pizza Hut is a thing of the past for me. Greasy, plain, and not that cheap for what you get. I remember I used to earn personal pan during the BOOKIT campaign in elementary school.

I would rather make my own pizza, or go to another restauarant anyway

Why people think the quality of service will improve if wages are raised to $15/hour is beyond me. It might for the first pay period and then it will be business as usual.

Quality of service will most likely go down...because business owners will likely hire less people and the existing employees will be overworked.

Besides that prices HAVE been raised, quite significantly in SF Bay Area places...and this isn't even $15/hr yet...I can't imagine what prices will be then.... Los Angeles just passed to follow suit as well...despite the less than positive news out of the Bay Area.

East Bay restaurants adapt to new minimum wage | Berkeleyside

It's kind of sad since I'm pretty sure many longtime businesses will close up. Why would they stay in a city that punishes them for operating there..?
