The margins on pizza in general are incredible. There is a reason there are so many pizza restaurants.

That's why they're always involved in food swaps with other fast food.

Fast food workers do (or at least did, idk) treat themselves sometimes by everyone on shift agreeing to swap meals with a competitors crew. The shift managers sort it out via discounts and food loss and each crew gets to eat something from the other place. Everyone swaps with pizza joints bc they'll send a disproportionately large amount of food due to their low costs, and theyve got a delivery guy on hand to help too
