    I agree. My 16 year old son tried one and he said it was mediocre at best and he wouldn't get another one. Too many good pizzerias around for that.

    I was part a consumer research group for their pizzas.

    They suck. out of allthe ones we tried (Papa Johns, Dominoes, Little Ceaser's, Wawa), Wawa pizza was by far the worst.

    Spent last week in Hawaii for work and below are a few of the best pics I took. Had very little time off in the evenings so it was almost all work and no play. We actually went there on vacation in August (our first vacation in at least six years) so I wasn’t excited to make the long plane ride again. Didn’t take any pics, but about every third vehicle was a Tacoma.

    none I still have a warranty ;-)
    I can say I’ve taken a 10k loss to just to get out of a job I hated!
    My wife was like I don’t care if we have to sell everything and move but I want my old Glenny back so
    I TOOK A JOB FOR 2 YEARS making 10k less just to move jobs. Best thing I did for her and myself .
    It sucked never having cash to do or buy things ( but they are just things ) and mental wealth is WAY MORE IMPORTANT .
    If it wouldn’t of been her telling me it was ok to make less I’m sure I would of pushed her away from me
    and lost the only thing that I need … my loving wife.

    Biltmore estate is super cool.

    I always get a kick out of the mcdonald’s in town. Supposed to be the worlds most expensive to build.

    Well said. Went from a 60k a year job as an IT guy to do a 15$ an hour job as an armed security guard before I was able to get into the job I wanted to work in.

    it was super tough. But in the end, I now have more good days then bad.

    ill check out the exhaust place. I really want to get this gas tank skid figured out. If the studs are the issue, I feel any skid I buy is not going to work.

    it’s not your typical mcd’s that’s for sure. I stopped in to pinch a loaf and check it out, I don’t eat that junk very often but the sign out front was very different and the stucco outside really made me wonder if it was a McDonald’s lol

    Agreed, they already do well with what they do, why the need to change things up? I wish they'd spend the resources they waste on making pizza, for keeping the Icee machines online instead.

    Isn't it time for turkey bowls?

    Haha, I worked at Wawa for almost 12 years before I got this job I'm at now. They've sold pizzas 2 other times, but they were more personal size ones. The first ones were actually frozen UNO pizzas and were pretty good, they the last ones they had were on focaccia bread and it was about an inch 1/2 thick. We had to put the sauce and everything else on. Those were ok to meh at best. I finally tried one of their new pies, it was ok. For 15 bucks though, I'd just as soon get a real pie from somewhere. At that price they're not even competing with the other 3 you mentioned and I'd take a pie from any of those over the Wawa one.

    I spent a week in Ashville in 1988. It's a beautiful place. Two strange things happened while I was there. Firstly, I ran into my best friend from high school. We had kept in touch the first 5 years or so since we had graduated but the last I heard he was in Minnesota. Yet, there he was working as a waiter at a restaurant as I walked through town. Strange to meet somebody you know hundreds of miles from home by chance. The 2nd thing that happened was, as I walked the trails, a large rattlesnake was sitting across the trail. I knew there was a family with small children behind me so I took my long walking stick and nudged it off the trail. Even though the stick was about 6 feet I was still scared, thinking the thing might strike me.
