Why are you posting this as fact?

I know for a fact my local papa johns is open on thanksgiving, so this 100% isn't accurate for the whole nation, this ONLY accounts for your LOCAL stores owned by that franchisee owner.

I'll order a christmas eve pizza just for you anon

>>13263707
this was coporate memo sent to my store (Macon, GA). All staff is required to work at least 2 of the "eve's" or our position will be terminated also. this is also a nationwide rule.

>>13263686

>>13263721
ah so you're retarded and that's why you work at papa john's

>>13263761
definitely not retarded. started working here in 2016 and every year I've increased my revenue by almost $500. I work only 32 hours every work week and pull in about $22k before taxes yearly. Last month i was able to take a fully paid vacation to Arizona for mountain climbing with Gear that I own and didn't have to rent. call that retarded?

>>13263824
yes

>>13263686
Boss makes me work on Thanksgiving Eve. :( :( :( I hate America.

>>13263824
>22k before taxes

>tfw get both eve and day off (paid) because I have a real job

>>13263721
>>13263686
>you must work on days that people normally spend with their loved ones or youre fired
I remember when stores closed for thanksgiving weekend

>>13264013
The current median household income for Macon is $41,303.

so yes i make a little less than the place i live in but i also life very efficiently and savings about 40% of my yearly income whole still being able to do nice things like visit arizona one time a year. plus i dont pay for food on 3 days a week because the owner is bad ass and lets me take a free 1 topping pizza home if i work 8 hours. 22k is fine for me and I'm saving a ton. now again, call THAT retadrd?

>>13264046
>now again, call THAT retadrd?
Yes. It's *retarded that you're above the age of 17 making pizzas in a Papa John's as your career. And not only that you're even proud as if what you do is somehow a great achievement.

>>13264088
what do you do anon

>>13263686
What the fuck is "Thanksgiving Eve" and why is anybody pretending it's a thing?

>>13264088
>it is retarded im proud that i have a decent paying job with people (and a product) that i like and i can afford to go to Arizona every October
sounds to me like your the retard.

>>13263686
If you're working retail you don't have a family or any legitimate life worth living anyways, enjoy the holiday pay.

>>13264124
>decent paying job
>22k/yr before taxes
Pick one

>>13263686
>Thoughts?
eh, I don't really have any about this topic

>>13264124
>working at a place that will fire you for wanting to spend time with your family
>good

>>13264143
obviously i picked both. why is everyone shitting on this? burger king or mcdonalds doesnt even pay there employs this much? if your from a differemt part of the country where salaries are way higher you shoulnt be comparing. this thread wasn't even supposed to be about my personal life anyways. i was just trying to connect with other people who will be working during the holidays.

>>13264046
Dude 22k is nothing. Learn a trade and you'll double your income in the first year. Maybe even triple it

>>13263686
>hospital locations
OHHH SAY CAN YOU SEEEE

>tfw get all those days as paid days off of work

>>13264166
you don't get it. i LIKE my job. i would HATE being a plummer or a welder or some highly specific job like that. i get to meet new people every day and i legitamitly feel like i made other people's days just a little bit better doing what i do. i don't think a lot of people can say that. it's a perfect amount of money for me. i have zero greed and everything i really need to love comfortable and oh did i mention a beautiful vacation to Arizona that is fully paid for? not a lot of people cando that

>>13264163
>obviously i picked both

>>13264182
Why would you hate it? It's a satisfying gig that pays well. I'm a welder and enjoy it. Being able to see a physical manifestation of your hard work is incredibly satisfying

>gets one vacation per year
>goes to Arizona every time

>>13264182
>plummer
You’re a plum, anon.

>>13263824
>call that retarded?
oh.... honey....

I worked at dominos last year and had to work new years eve until 3am. Shit was depressing

Why the fuck do you guys est Papa Johns anyways? They are such a fucking rip off. $3.00 delivery fee (not a tip!).

Plus, LARGE (((14inch))) cheese pizza is $15 fucking dollars.

I can get a SMALL (14inch) from my local pizzeria for $10, and a large (16inch) for $14.

Not only that. But Papa Johns ruined the PapaRewards program.

>>13264401
I like it because I can get a large for less than a small

>>13264524
A small is only 12 inches... a large is 14 inches which would be a small at local places

>>13264230
sauce?

>>13264401
I only order when they're 50% off, which is all the time. Hell it was 50% off just yesterday.

>>13264109
>What the fuck is "Thanksgiving Eve"
the biggest drinking night of the year at bars, probably good late night business for a take out place

>>13263991
Not only did nobody mention America but nobody mentioned Thanksgiving Eve either
Literally who are you quoting

>>13264524
You can't be this stupid
The price for their small has absolutely nothing to do with their price for their large. It's a marketing trick. Take an item nobody buys and make it expensive so people think your regular items/specials are cheap
$10 for a large pizza is a mediocre price

>>13265569
have you considered reading the things that you're replying to? might make a few people think you're not retarded

>>13263686
Based Burger King closing early on Christmas Eve and New Years Eve and opening late in New Years day.
