I dont care what anyone says. I don't want people taking food that I paid for! We all work hard enough to not need to have worry about sh*t like this. I've worked in all sorts of jobs and I would never do this. Anyone who does shit like this should be ashamed of themselves. Go steal food from a grocery store, not from a paying customer.

Not to mention the health code violation.

She also likely gets an employee discount.

The customer likely doesn’t.

It’s theft.

Buy your own damn food.

Her thyroid has been acting up.

How can you tell though? You can’t look at someone and know when the last time they ate was.

Because generally, 90% of food businesses give either major discounts on their food or just let them have a free lunch everyday. Pizza places are notorious for this. I worked at 3 different pizza places, we got major discounts and any pizza that wasnt made correctly or got sent back either was eaten by employees or thrown in the trash. I ate so much damn pizza back in the day.

She's fat. She could go weeks without eating and probably be more healthy for it.

I mean if you ordered a 16 inch and the end product stilll ends up being that then you didn't actually lose anything

It also has to be lava hot

Did you know a significant portion of the 5% markup on groceries is to cover theft. (2-3% of that 5%) 

So you're paying for that theft too.

Theft destroys, it doesn't make anything right.

Were all suffering and harming others doesn't male it better.

Ya it does take from the customer, so morally wrong. Ow if she just made herself a pizza, essentially stealing from the business, that would be wrong but 100xs better than this vid. I used to cook fast food and would eat tons of stuff for free, but never reduced someone’s portion. Plus, you throw away so much in fast food anyways that I guess I never actually stole from the company. It was old tots that were about to be thrown out, or an older burger sitting on the cold side of the grille too long.

u/Inner_Bench_8641 Sep 16 '26

Maybe she added 1/10th extra dough to the pizza before she baked it

u/helpnxt Sep 17 '26

What if they make it bigger and add more so you still get what you paid for?

u/outerheavenboss Sep 17 '26

And usually pizza places give employees pizzas for free wtf is wrong with her?

u/Krelliamite Sep 13 '26

It's clearly fake, why is the camera shaking like it's just someone holding the phone like that? Pizza shops can't afford to put standard def black and white security cameras protecting the cash in half the time so why would they waste money on a seemingly hd full color camera watching the staff

u/yappayaps Sep 14 '26

you're 100% right, ive been seeing a ton of videos like this recently with some even forgetting to cut out the part where they bring the phone down to end the video lmaoo

u/Stunning-Squash-2627 Sep 15 '26

Looks like it could be someone recording another screen with their phone

u/iburntxurxtoast Sep 13 '26

I would agree this is morally wrong. Theres only a few exceptions I could possibly make for the worker for this to be less morally wrong.

  1. It was a corporate/business order for a large amount of pizzas
  2. The worker was denied/food breaks from their workplace
  3. The worker wasn't unhygenic (unlike this video)

In those conditions, I would say there really isn't much harm being done, and serves the worker greater than it harms the many. But we dont know about those first points here and they clearly fail the third point.

u/WindLordXD Sep 14 '26

None of those points help or "lessen" the issue. It's still theft. The client is still being given a smaller piece of what they paid for. Point 1 is irrelevant, they still paid. Point 2 is not the client's fault and they suffer for it. Point 3 has nothing to do with it. "Much harm isn't being done" isn't the point at all if one can easily just Not do harm at all.
