🍕 Pizza Hut Manager Cries Laughing At My Salad 🤣🥗

I worked at Pizza Hut at age 15.

My role was mostly at the front counter, taking and cashing out pick up orders by phone and in person. I talked my way into waiting tables every now and then, and slicing pizzas and breadsticks as they came out of the oven. And the occasional dishwashing duty.

The restaurant was usually pretty slow in the daytime, so one random summer weekday, I was part of a two-person crew with my manager, Terrell.

Though there weren’t many customers, Terrell was doing every job — making pizzas, cutting and boxing them, running the dishwasher, waiting tables — as I manned the front counter.

Pizza Hut had a weekday lunch buffet. I asked Terrell what I could do to help prepare, as he was making the buffet pizzas already.

He told me I could prepare the salad.

I had eaten plenty of salad in my life, but I had never actually made one.

So, while holding the big empty salad bowl and on my way to the walk-in refrigerator, I asked Terrell what went in the salad.

Halfway distracted as he prepared a pepperoni pizza for baking, Terrell replied, “Ah, man, you know what goes in a salad. Put some carrots, onions, cucumbers, tomatoes, and croutons on top.”

I entered the walk-in fridge and did exactly as Terrell had instructed.
