Walk into the interview with a pizza in hand. Give it to the guy; say, "Clearly I already know what I'm doing." You'll get the job.

Flawless plan

mention how you're scared of actually driving, and show them a mockup of a map with all your public transit routes mapped out

Just be a cool guy.

The job itself doesn't matter, because it's delivering pizzas.

What matters is whether or not they like you.

(hint: you'll probably get the job no matter what)

Its things like this that make you wonder why the company that makes M&Ms don't make butter

The manager definitely seems to like me from the few times I've talked to him already, and my brother and former theatre director already work at the place, and he LOVES my brother.

So yeah.

Good luck, i doubt they are interviewing a ton of people for a position like that you should get it especially if he already likes you.

It's not like the pizza delivery industry is very selective or competitive... the interview is just a formality, show up on time to prove that you are punctual and that's it

Any time you have an interview, always have some questions ready for when they ask if you have any questions.

So... pizza delivery?

...

...er, ask what toppings they have?

What's wrong with being a pizza guy?

I was a pizza guy for 4 years in college, and it was a great job.

I saw many boobies, and got many beers and shots.

Sure sometimes it was crappy, but what job isn't?

Mer, just show up on time. If you have a clean driving record and at say you know the town pretty well (even if you don't) you should get it.

You will learn street names and stuff as you go, it's a really fun job after you know where everything is. Not having to look at the wall map is epic pizza guy form.

Haha, ok. Two stories, even though there were many more.

I delivered to some skeezy hotel at the end of town. It was about as far as we go, so I was kinda mad because I knew the tip was prob gonna be bad, and like I said it was super far. I got there, knocked on the door and this dude answers, completely naked.
I was scared. Seriously scared. I kept my eyes up, and then this dude started to bull**** with me. So I just looked at him, and said "dude your ****ing naked, can we not chat?" He started laughing, so I laughed. Then I noticed the chick in the bed with the covers over her. He called to her, told her to get the money and to come give me my tip. Pizza was I dunno, 13 bucks or something, so she gets her purse, grabs some money and then instead of handing it to the dude, just uncovers, walks over to me, hands me the money, and then jumps into my arms. She was pretty hot too. Then the dude offered me a hit from his bong, and a drink. I said no of course, but as I was walking away, I was counting my money and I got a 5 dollar tip as well. Best delivery ever.

The other story starts off after a football game at VT. It was pretty late and all the bars were letting out. I was delivering to a house right behind downtown, and there were these 3 chicks waving me down. I stop, ask them whats up and they want a ride to a place a couple miles away. Mind you, at the time, I was driving a 2 door s-10. Pretty tiny. Anyway, the chicks pile in, and I ask what I get in return for this act of kindness. They say they will all flash me. I was like that sounds fair, only if I get to take a pic. I told them I wouldn't get their face in it, so they were down. So I dropped them off, and they posed for a boobie pic all 3 of them in a row.
Great times, I did like 3 shots of Jim with them and went back to the store. They wanted me to come back, but it took me like an hour to close out, and I just didn't feel like I had to energy to please 3 chicks, so I just balled back to my place.

Funny story about that story, I hooked up with 2 outta 3 of those chicks later, and I didn't even know until she asked me if I was that pizza guy. I was like "that was you!?!?". Hilarious. Those chicks were freaks.

Hey all this is Bartz btw.

Wow, ****ed up. That reminds me that you guys should never apply at Sledgehammer Games, and that you should not purchase Modern Warfare 3. Here's a little (super long) story.

I was working a ****ty job (except it had good pay and benefits) testing military simulators for DARPA. After just over a year of working there, I got tired of it and decided that I wanted to get back into games. I send my resume out to a bunch of studios in the Bay Area, and wait.

I got a call back shortly thereafter from Sledgehammer Games for a Senior QA position in Foster City, about a 20 minute drive from where I live. The pay was undoubtedly going to be less, but I felt like it was worth it for all the other perks the job would come with. I did a phone interview that went really well, and they said they liked my resume, my previous experience, and especially that I had worked on a major Call of Duty title in the past. They said they'd get back to me.

A few days later I get a call letting me know that I'm one of the final 3 candidates, and that they'd like to schedule an interview. I take the time off from work (of course not mentioning that it's for an interview) and drive out to Foster City. The interview goes extremely well, and I'm pretty much promised the job. They start giving me a tour of the office, I shake hands, meet people. Yeah, the pay is about $5 less per hour than I was making at the time, but I felt like it was worth it.

A few days later, I get a call from the recruiter that I had been speaking with about the job. "Well, we got a call from Activision today and they said that they don't think we really even need this position at the moment, so the position is no longer being hired for. I'm really sorry." Alright, **** Activision, it's no big deal. I convinced myself that even if I didn't get the job, I still had a job that paid better, offered benefits, and was less than 5 minutes from my house. I tell them to call me back in the future if the position ever opens up again.

3 months later, and the company I was working for has shut down, and I'm working for a mobile app company making $22/hr, no benefits, and I'm way under qualified for the job. As luck would have it, the recruiter calls me back and tells me "Hey! Activision changed their mind and we're hiring for that spot again. Are you still interested?" Now at this point, a drop from $22/hr to $13-$14/hr is a lot steeper than going down from $18. I tell her that I am interested, and she tells me she'd call me the next day.

The next day is a Friday, and she calls me back. "Alright, so, how soon can you start?" I tell her that I'll have to talk to my manager, but I could probably start next week, and possibly even Monday. She says great and wants me to call her as soon as I find out. I go to talk to my manager to quit, but before I quit though, I need some lunch in my stomach. The manager is a friend of mine and I was feeling a little uneasy about quitting after only a month. While I'm eating lunch, literally 5 minutes away from quitting, the woman calls me back. "Hey, I just wanted to let you know that we just hired the other guy who was interviewing. He's unemployed and can guarantee that he can start Monday. I'm sorry and I hope you haven't spoken to your manager yet."

Ultimately, if I had quit and then gotten the phone call, there would have been hell to pay, but I still had my $22/hr job so I wasn't quite as angry. I was extremely upset though, but still polite, so I told her to take me off the list for any future hirings, because I am no longer interested in working for their company.

In conclusion, **** Sledgehammer Games, and **** Activision.
