Papa John's Training?

By Albert on August 26, 2010 10:18 PM

After several months of being a happy Papa John's customer, I will no longer buy pizza from them.

I have to wonder what type of training Papa John's employees get. The employee I spoke with seemed to think it was a better idea to lose the sale and a customer instead of lose one pizza and make another.

Let's think about this. The employee had a choice:

  1. Cancel the order, throw away the pizza, and lose the sale
  2. Cancel the order, throw away the pizza, get a new order and keep the sale

I have to question the logic of any employee who would choose option 1, but the one I spoke to did.

This is what I sent to them:

I'm shocked and disappointed with the treatment I just received from this store. I have ordered a pizza from this same store every week for the past six months. Today, when ordering a pizza online, the system put hot peppers on both halves, when I wanted them only on one half. I called immediately when I saw the receipt to have the order changed and by the time my phone call was answered by a human, the order had not even been received. I held on the line for a couple more minutes until they found my order; I asked to have the hot peppers removed from one half, but they told me the pizza was already in the oven. I asked if I could cancel that order and order a new one, and they said no. I questioned the logic behind their response, saying it was written right on the website that I could call to change or cancel my order. He said he could cancel the order, but wouldn't make me a new one, so I told him to cancel my order. You just lost a regular customer.

After canceling my Papa John's order, I ordered from Domino's instead.

Papa John's Review

I finally tried Papa John's tonight, and I have to say that I agree with the positive reviews I've heard.

A friend an I ordered one large cheese and one small pepperoni pizza to be delivered for the two of us and our two daughters. The pizza arrived in about thirty minutes and it was hot and tasty.

They also came with some garlic sauce and Pepperoncini peppers, a nice touch.
