It’s one of the worst times to find a job in history. Thank goodness mischief and Pizza Hut understand how much ppl are suffering by giving away literally 25 total pizzas in America in a “contest” so that I have a 1% chance of my lame stunty pizza box resume going to a potential employer.

This is why you always read the T&C:

“Winners will be responsible for obtaining permission from their potential employer (hiring manager) to deliver pizza to their address”

So they are supposed to cold call a business and ask if they can send a pizza? I would think someone was trying to poison me or send a bomb 😳

“Winners”

A hit and a miss there. I don’t blame them per se but i do blame people that are hyping just because it was mischief

Not angered. I just have a weird sense of humor. Yes, just advertising people clapping because it’s mischief so it’s good.

I’m a fan of their work though, but I’m not as biased to love everything they make.

I find the "ResZAmes" idea insensitive. As someone who is actively seeking employment, it feels like a mockery of my efforts to have my resume printed on a pizza box. Job searching is already a stressful and often emotional process, and reducing it to something that arrives with a pizza trivializes the significance of what I'm going through. I understand the attempt to be creative, but for many of us, it comes off as dismissive of the seriousness of unemployment.
