Sam Swicegood, a Pizza Hut delivery man in Maryland fought off a group of attackers as he was attempting to deliver pizzas, and what happens? Pizza Hut gave him a demotion.
Swicegood faced five attackers and said those odds “is just not a good situation to be in.”
He said, “I thought I was about to die.”
The attackers fled without his money or his pizzas. However, Fox News Insider says that Pizza Hut cut his hours and his pay for violating their “no weapons policy.”

A college student
trying to make ends meet delivering pizza says he lost his job because
he fought back as a group of teens attacked him. Sam Swicegood,a
pizza-delivery driver, says he lost his job fighting back after he was
attacked while making a delivery.
Sam said something didn’t feel right so he grabbed a piece of a tent
pole to protect himself just in case.
Pizza Hut has a no weapon policy drivers must adhere to; in Swicegood’s
case he’s now a cook and his pay and hours have been cut.
Delivery-pizza’s has become a risky business, so much so police are
issuing flyers that describe how drivers can and should protect
themselves.
Sam told FOX45 that what he did was necessary to protect himself, and he
has since paid a hefty price for it.
For Sam the job was helping to pay for college: “I was making about 11
or 12 dollars in tips.”
It was enough to make ends meet, but that all changed a few weeks ago
after Sam was attacked making a delivery in a Glen Burnie neighborhood.
Sam said, “I’m pretty sure they called and ordered a delivery driver.”
Sam admits he began to feel a little uneasy so before he got out of his
car, he grabbed something to protect himself. It’s a decision that may
have spared him from being seriously injured.
“It’s a little fiberglass road I had up my sleeve not thinking I would
actually have to us

No Pizza Hut too!
ReplyDelete:) Have to do our own.
DeleteI hate to point this out, but delivering pizza is just selling tomorow to pay for today. If you do not belive me just do the math if your car is free and you do not buy insurance you might make money
ReplyDeleteYou might clear some at .23 cents per mile, but using it to help work his way through school makes sense considering the availability and hours. My grandfather paid my father's tuition and board at medical school and my father sold a pint of blood a week for spending money. Do what you have to do, of course today they just go on welfare. I understand that a single person, as long as he has nothing in his name, can get the equivalent of $2,500 a month and then they are probably doing something for cash.
DeleteFock Pizza Hut, No more Pizza Hut, KFC and Taco Bell, all owned by the same no-weapons-policy company from hell.

P.S. This guys ought to have carried a firearm and capped those bastards - most probably Obama's sons.

DeleteThe guy broke the policy he'd agreed to on his contract. And attempted to use a weapon on barely teenage kids, who clearly were not very brave or well organised if one fat guy with a stick can stop them.
ReplyDeletePathetic.
