    You want our pizza...no, don't try not to...you DO. You WANT it.

    Literally a minute's drive from where we live is a Little Caesar's Pizza. Since we moved here last Oct., the place has had this $5 medium pizza deal -- you walk in, pizza's already ready, you pay $5 plus tax and you leave in about a minute. Well the last while they've had "mascots" promoting this offer -- kids standing on the side of the road, awkwardly waving about these big signs with the offer listed on it. Normally it was 1 kid; maybe 2. Well yesterday there were 2 kids waving signs PLUS a guy wearing that Little Caesar mascot character costume (the toga-wearing guy). And on the other side of the road a little ways up -- 2 more kids with signs. So FIVE people. At the SAME time. On the SAME road. I've never seen more than 3 employees at Little Caesar's at one time and yet they are paying for FIVE people to stand on the road. I have no idea how effective it is but if having five is that much more effective than, say, 3-4 people, shouldn't they at least have more staff serving the bloody customers? Am I nuts in thinking this? C'mon dammit, get back to making pizza and get your scary kids off our sidewalks!
