Pizza Hut shops

You are allowed to order delivery if you're in their delivery area, so I would guess that's to cover the delivery fee and tip.

Pizza Hut is my choice for pizza, but only $10 pay for a shop that must be done in the evening (likely requiring a special trip at that time of day) for a pizza that can only be pepperoni, and requires five photos? They got to be joking!

It is easy to order from Pizza Hut website and then go pick up the pizza at a Hut 3 minutes from my home, but I would rather have pizza with toppings that I can actually eat. I will buy it on my own dime with no flipping half the pizza upside down, letting it cool down while I manipulate it for the photos, or filling out the report, thank you.
I scheduled one, and considering that the location is literally 5 minutes away and that we usually get pizza once/week, it seemed like a pretty good deal. I'll have to see when the time comes....

I learn something new every day, but not everyday!
I've learned to never trust spell-check or my phone's auto-fill feature.
Where I am, the fee's up to $45 plus reimbursement. And it's a town I'll be going through on my way home, so maybe I'll try it.
The shop is easy enough. The time "constraint" is what sucks the most about the job. Is the Big New Yorker pizza made different after 5PM than it would be at 1PM? There really isn't much about the timing or service, but it's more about how many pepperonis are on the pizza, if they are evenly distributed, if the pizza is sliced all the way thru, and how it was baked. If they allowed earlier times than a little window from 5-8:30, it would make it easier to do.

The pizza is fine. It's not spectacular and it's not terrible. I would never buy this on my own dime. I'll take a larger pepp pizza from costco for less money.

While I agree that the time constraint is a big negative since that requires a solo trip exclusively for one shop, you assume that everybody likes pepperoni. The ordering restriction is the biggest negative for me. Also, not everybody has or can justify paying for a Costco membership.

I have not seen chain pizza shops where I can order what I like. I do not eat pepperoni and this job clearly mentioned not to take it if you do not like or eat pepperoni. I used to do the Papa Johns shops and remember the poor choice of toppings. I seem to remember I could only get peppers if I ordered them with a specific other topping. I never could order my preference. Often you are only allowed one or two toppings from a very short list.
I did hear a rumor a few months ago that Costco is asking for membership at the food court but I have never been asked to prove I am a member. To get their best value of all with very edible pizza at costco just walk up to an outdoor Costco food court (in warmer states) or inside you can usually get inside by telling them you are going to the pharmacy even if not a member.
I’ve done a number of these so far — easy to order in the app 15-20 min earl and grab the pizza when passing through. 5 pics are super easy… They are now starting to get bonused which is nice. They seem to have them on a rolling schedule rather than dropping all the locations at once… think of the initials of a deceased judicial figure that caused drama when they were replaced in the last few years..

I lol'd at your clue. Very good, I had to think for a minute smiling smiley
Yea, I went looking... I used to like pizza hut. Nikki and Elise are the schedulers, I won't touch them with a $100 bonus..
I was talking to some one the other day and they work at a Pizza Hut about 30 minutes or so from my area and they told me that they still have a buffet
They actually prefer you to order delivery rather than take-out, according to the guidelines. We did one, had it delivered, and the shop went well. Pizza was good, although I don't care for NYC-style thin crust, it was tasty. I'd do it again next round.

Did one last week. It was very salty and greasy. Next time I will add some other toppings when I get it home. Oh, yes- you have to count the pepperonis.

I also like a pizza with everything but you can keep the mushrooms smiling smiley

Count the pepperonis? Can they tell how many there are by the pictures?

3 letter SASSIE company with a scheduler some people are not fond of

I wish more people here would give hints like "sounds like..." "rhymes with..." "first letter is..." Cryptic hints don't work for everyone.

Maybe this will help. The three letters are usually in color wheels used to test for Red Green color blindness but not in the exact order of the MSC.

And the three letters do actually stand for words.

This was the right hint for me, thanks

Its probably already been reported but if you order delivery, there is a fee for delivery and the like.

On a side note...Scheduler e-mailed me and said make an offer. I was able to negotiate a nice bonus that made it worthwhile. Had I had more time (the order window is 3.5 hours) I would have done 3 of them that night. Instead I did two and made a nice payday (3 figures without reimbursement) and shoe-horned in a USPS and a Sonic shop as well (both were also bonused/increased pay).

As the song goes..."Today was a good day"
YEA- pro tip on these. If you're going to be carting the pizza around with you for an extended period of time--put it in the trunk--preferably on top of an old bath towel. greasy!
I saw a hot & ready pizza chain on Presto 4/1. By the time I looked over the instructions it was no longer available. Maybe it was just a prank, given the date.
I miss the "hot and ready" shops. I would get $15 for them and give the pizza to some homeless people who could party it up with their homeless buddies.

LOL! Yep, that's about all those pizzas were good for.

Those shops evaporate here in South Texas. I finally snagged one last month. !

Just be cool folks.
Just grabbed one of these whoops with a $30 bonus and had the displeasure of working with E and N. Learned my lesson. Never again.
I got one and it was surprisingly easy. No complicated timings, no service evaluation to speak of, and no cutting the pizza with scissors or whatever, lol. The pizza was greasy due to all the pepperoni slices. I guess that is how some New York pizza is supposed to be.

No, real NY pizza is not supposed to be greasy. What an absurd thing to say.

Agreed — This is a pale imitation of NY Pizza — “NY Style Pizza” is even pushing it. It’s just a slightly different LTO from Pizza Hut.
Doesn't NY Style usually refer to the crust? Like Chicago Style usually means a deep dish pizza?

When I was in NY about 10 years ago, I just wanted to walk around Manhattan for a bit so I parked and walked around for a couple of hours. I couldn't tell you where I was or anything but I got a slice of pizza from this corner place. Just brilliant.

We went across the Brooklyn Bridge and we were going to visit the original Grimaldi's but were told that the place next door is actually better--and ran by the same people who founded Grimaldi's. It was incredible.
