    I've been Money Tipped!
    Did a pizza for GAP on Saturday. We requested the BBQ chicken, but asked if they could hold the onions and toms on one side (as the other guest doesn't like them).

    Got my reciept and guess what. It's a half and half pizza. Looked and thought great, not getting paid for this one.

    I explained at the end of the report that i would not classify it as half and half. In my opinion half and half would be pepperoni one side and bbq chicken the other.

    Got an email saying i would not be paid but have written back saying please explain what a half and half pizza is. I do not feel my pizza was a half and half and if there isn't a definition of it i think it's unfair to hold payment based on that.

    Anybody had this problem?

    Haven't done a pizza job for a while, but last time I read the notes, just asking to hold the onions and toms was enough to change the brief you were given.

    I seem to recall that you have a standard list to choose from and no deviations were allowed from it as it meant extra work for the kitchen, so a not a fair representation of the time to make the food.

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news....

    The breif just say:

    Starter - Pizza
    Pizza - Dessert

    Etc

    No pineapple, no half and half

    There would be no extra work. I doubt that this change would affect the timings and if they did would be by seconds.

    It doesn't clearly explain what a half and half pizza is, which is the point i'm making. And therefor without a definition left to people's perceptions. I perception is that i was not ordering a half and half pizza.

    Thanks for your reply :-)
    I get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!

    Although I do tend to agree with you, you know what Gap are like - any excuse not to pay you. From their point of view, you ordered half BBQ chicken and half something else, so I can sort of see their point of view as well. Don't hold out much hope for you unfortunately.
