Really pissed off that I called a restaurant for delivery, placed my order and then they call me back and won’t deliver to my street.
Really?
What the fuck? Seriously, it’s a 3 minute drive. If the buses ran more frequently I wouldn’t mind getting take out and busing home, but chances are by the time I got home to eat, the food would be stone ass cold.

If it’s only a 3-minute drive, then it’s probably not that far of a walk, you lazy ass.
Bad neighbourhood? Pizza boys getting robbed?
If that’s the case, can’t says that I blame them.
Spryfield, Sackville, or Kennedy Drive? If you know it’s a 3 minute drive, get off your fat, cottage-cheese, clunky ass, get in your car and drive there.
A certain pizza place wont deliver to my street either and I live in a good neighborhood.
well the good news is… there’s PLENTY of competition if it’s pizza.
They didn’t say pizza though so I’ll have to assume it’s not.
I dunno.. you can get pretty far in 3 minutes by car…
and if it’s some place like Best Choice, you’re going to be carrying back pounds and pounds worth of food for the trek.
I’m thinking I would have called back and gave them an address a block away…
then ask how long and just to meet them there.
‘meet in the middle’ as a compromise, so to speak.
Sounds like a Seinfeld episode
This happened to me recently. No biggy. It reminds me of Seinfeld when Elaine ordered flounder.
“Your guy can’t cross to my side?”
“If we deliver to you, then what? Eighty-fifth Street, Wall Street, Mexico, Eighty-fourth Street?”
Next time ask them who their direct competitor is and if they can give you their number.
Waitaminit.
“No Take Out?”?
Take Out isn’t the issue, delivery is.
Do we have an Ombudsman here?

You don’t blame the robbers for sticking up the pizza boys?

Getting hungary…
Goulash?
An ex of mine delivered pizza for a place on Main street in Dartmouth and sometimes had to deliver to Preston. He didn’t stay there long.
If you can afford delivery, then you can afford to keep a microwavable meal in the freezer.
And what’s wrong with Preston? I’m in and out there quite often and have NEVER had a problem there. As a matter of fact I don’t have a problem with any parts of HRM. Don’t condem a neighbourhood or community because of a few assholes.
mmm lllaaarrrggghhh, i think i will try my hand at goulash soup. i have almost perfected my bagel recipe
depending on where you live o.p., it could be hazardous to their health. what with all the robberies and killings and attacks on cabbies and pizza drivers. when i did that shit, i always was armed and ready. you fuck with me, you die, plain and simple. being licensed and bonded, does have it’s advantages people.
Ob…I’m less than 5 minutes away from a pizza place as well. That’s 5 minutes at 80kms an hour =1.33 kms per minute , which is only 6.65 kilometers away.
But they don’t deliver out here !
I’m on the wrong side of the river bridge, but its cheaper to do it yourself & you always get what you want that way as well.
When I lived in Boston, the cabs would deliver take out. You’d pay the cab fare plus the take out amount.
same went with booze runs in wolfville.
cabbies certainly liked that setup.
Helped the whole place was on a huge muffukkin’ hill.
Had a drunk girl call my store the other night because she was getting a cab to pick up her and her friends some Fast Flats. So yeah, Hali does it too.
