Pizza Stories 3

Well last night was a weird on.  It started with a 15 year old who had borrowed his grandfather's Mercedes convertible backed up into one of our driver's trucks.  The kid was crying.  No insurance.  He played dumb with the police not knowing and family information, but the officer tracked them down.  Surprisingly their was no damage to the Mercedes, but the trucks door was all dented in.

We had computer gremlins all night long that had us standing around doing nothing for long periods of time especially during prime time. 

A complaint I have about the area is that their was no thought on how to do a road system here.  People were just given areas and told to develop them.  Streets wiggly around like someone was dropping acid while drawing up the plans.  Streets have mysterious barriers on them to stop you so that you have to drive around entire neighborhoods to get the connection.  The worse are the street names.  I know their probably is a finite number of names, but jeez.  You can start on Holladay lane and it will become a road at some point.  Of this you will always have a Holladay court and crescent.  It is truly a pain.  Last night I found the worse of them all, Lauderdale lane.  It's a 8 block section of road.  However each block ends in a dead end.  So you have to go around the whole block to get to the next section.  Trying to find numbers at 11:30 pm really sucks although a $6 tip made it worth it.
