joey and the mullet man

it was a hard day for me. maybe it was that i worked a double and i’m a wimp. maybe it was learning that the new guy dropped a pizza going through the kitchen doors and i can’t understand why someone doesn’t tell each new person specifically how to walk through those doors with food. if every new person drops a pizza going through the doors, doesn’t it seem like we should spend 5 minutes with training on going through those doors before they ever go through them with food? maybe it was that rose and joey and peet are leaving. maybe it was my lower back. anyway, i shouldn’t complain, i love my job, i made and cooked some incredible food today, but ‘m beat down tired. i should be in bed already but i wanted to show you peet’s mullet. peet’s mullet is so sweet that i took this picture with the hope of someday making a t-shirt with a drawing of this photo. if it weren’t for the 5000 t-shirts we have in stock right now i’d probably be drawing it already.
we sold 17 deep dish today. and boy were they beautiful. we used to only do 10 a day, then we went to 15, and today we sold the most ever at 17. i made one for my wife and myself and it was one of the best pizzas i ever ate.
joey is finally leaving. joey is unique at satchel’s in that he has a menu back about him AND a satchel’s t-shirt with a drawing of him and his girlfriend kissing on the back. he thinks that because of this he is special and we never wanted to break it to him that no one likes him and the only reason we didn’t fire him is because we knew he would leave on his own and then we won’t have to pay unemployment. he is chasing his girlfriend to some faraway desert and he’ll never have as good a job as we gave him. he may never even have a friend again. but we’ll miss him anyway.
i’ve got a few new pictures to show you but i’ll wait a couple days. i’m too tired to write another word.
