Pizza Delivery: Boss raised food prices after asking for gas compensation...?!
Gas, where I live is selling for 1!.293/L right now!. At the Pizza place where I work, our boss was paying us 1!.00 per delivery!. We've been holding out for a few months, and finally this week, we asked him for $1!.25 per delivery to cover the rise in gas costs!. He gives it to us, but then an hr later, comes back to us and says "I'm giving you all the $1!.25/per delievery raise, however, your slice and pop is NO longer $2!.00, you must pay $3!.00!."
Am I right for thinking that's kinda lame!.!.!. or should have we not bothered asking for the raise!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

As a boss, i think you were right to ask!. sometimes us managers think everything is fine because it's always worked that way before!.
sounds like he's being a little raw!. if he raises the front end price too that won't be so wrong, but if it's just the delivery drivers he's increasing the cost to- then that's kinda off!.
(my company just raised employee meals to $3 from $2 also!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

That's bull! I would have been so mad if I were you! It doesn't take a genius to figure out that since you guys are paying for your own gas, and gas is going up, your wages are going to have to go up as well!. If he wanted to raise prices, he should have raised outside prices before raising employee prices, or raised them both!. I would get all of your coworkers to start bringing lunch!. But I bet then he'll make a "No Outside Food Allowed" Rule!. What a nazi!Www@FoodAQ@Com
if you have to pay for the gas, then you should ask for the raise, but otherwise, why do need it!? and he probably would have ended up raising the prices anyway, just because everyone's doing that nowadaysWww@FoodAQ@Com
Your boss is just being bitchy!.
You shouldn't have a asked in the first place, but since you did, you might as well start bringing food to work so it's cheaper than paying $3Www@FoodAQ@Com
