Sometimes a girls gotta vent..

This is one of those times...

My first address I will make to the parents of Taylor in apartment 113 ... you have failed him. I deliver a Sandwich to him almost every time that I work and he has failed to tip me or even put the total charge on my reciept. He is friendly, I'll give you that, but after the 10th or 11th time that I see him smiling at me while handing me a tipless reciept, it becomes more of a sneer than a amile and Ive slowly grow to despise your son. The average tip for a delivery driver in the US is between $2.50 and $5.00 depending on the order. My average time to deliver food is 5-9 minutes from the time I recieve the call. THAT DANG GOOD! So please, tell me that you will teach dear, smiley little Taylor to tip. Even a dollar would be nice! In Rexburg I could be driving for 5 hours and only recieve 5 dollars in tips! We get paid under minimum wage and are NOT compensated for gas so the tip money that your son is neglecting to give me is infact the money that gets me to his cute little dorm every other night. Also, he eats way too much Salami, i would steer him more towards our #6 or 15 if you care about his arteries.

Whew, sorry, but it needed to be said.

Also to Josh who ordered the 16 with bacon combo meal, yes i did only drive 4 blocks, however, when I show up with your order in less than 3 minutes after you order it, all out of breath, and you give me a twenty for an order that cost 16.50, YES, I am going to ask you if you'd like your change back, this however, does not give you the right to say things like (in a punky voice)" As much as I'd like to tip you THAT much just for driving a few block, its not gunna happen" ......

"yes please"

Thats an acceptable response to the question...dont be a jerk ok, It was a question, not a request and you should have grown out of your cheapo habits when you got your real job....as a repair man. No judgeing, just bitterness and lots of suggeting.

and finally, to the pedestrians of Rexburg.... I hate you. Not really but soetimes I say that to make myself sound hardcore and opinionated. To be honest, your not so bad but you should consider the following

look both ways (kinda thought that was common sense but lets call it something else to not make you sound so dumb)

When a car is screeching to a hault after seeing you to late, the "deer in headlights" move is almost always fatal....move please.

Use the crosswalk, $75 fine for J-walking....for a REASON! Cars wont stop if your stupid

You have the right away...not the right to make the world stop turning for your sake.... when crossing the street, consider the fact that 5 to 10 cars are watching you and waiting for you to decide which side of the street you want to slow-mo walk to. Walk...at a normal humanistic rate of speed.

ok ok ok Im sorry, thats all the negativity I have in me so I think thats good justification! Dont judge me ok, I have issues.... but so does Josh, Taylor and all the pedestrians in Rexburg!

  1. hahahaha you crack me up Kayla! I wish we could really reach out to Taylor's parents and give them the low-down. I'm sure they would be concerned for his manners and arteries. Just think, pretty soon you won't have to RUN at lightning speeds for your job. Love you!

  2. OMG I agree with you on the pedestrian issue 10000000%!! Just because you have the right away, doesn't mean you're going to win when it comes down to you and my car! Seriously!!
