    There used to be a pizza place down here by the beach I worked on that had thee Best Greasy thin crust New York Pizza owned by a young kid from New York.

    Ate it every other day for years. Sadly he packed up back to NY . Haven't had pizza that good since.

    My ex from Italy was a pizza nut like me too. There was a restaurant on Lake Lugano in Switzerland across the street from her parents where we always stayed.

    Beautiful lake view and best real Italian pizza and cold Peroni for 8 francs..I always got the Bismarck with a fresh cracked egg on it with fresh prosciutto than drizzled gobs of hot pepper olive oil over it.

    While I was trucking I always asked who had the best pizza in town when I was doing my 10.
    Many pizzas eaten, many not so good.

    That is why I always had a couple Paul Newman thin crust pizzas in the freezer of my semi and my broiler oven with a pizza stone.

    Could we please, i beg, STOP talking about pizza UNLESS there is a way to make money from pizza----example: Dominoes distribution driving.

    Some of us are not in as fortunate of a financial situation as others right now.

    Let's start a new thread just for pizza?

    So, what's happening is i am still (miraculously?) working long hours----the same as the recent string of checks i've been posting(60-70 hours). And what usually happens is i get home, maybe get something to eat, chill in front of the computer-----and then pretty soon i get very tired (like what's happening now). You know the feeling of getting really tired and/or sleepy. Then it's time to go to bed.....and then do the same thing over the next day.

    i don't have to right now to research for the inevitable collapse.

    So, what i'm asking is if anyone has more free time, please post useful information, links, videos etc. concerning the following in order of importance:

    1) Jobs available now. Not just driving but anything. Although the preference is towards driving.

    2) Jobs that will STILL be available in the next few weeks. And "last job standing" type jobs. Again, preference for driving, but list any job.

    3) Unemployment compensation info.

    Please list as many GOOD links, videos etc. as possible.

    The following are what i consider examples of good links:
    https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2020/04/03/unemployed-coronavirus-faq/?arc404=true



    So, one thing i got out of the wash post article was that taxes are now, not due until July 15th, not April 15 as it usual is. That's good info and good for me as i likely owe around 8K in taxes.

    i've always tried to be helpful and provide lots of useful information (like my checks etc.) If we ever do get out of this crisis, i will continue to try to be helpful.

    Pizza is my favorite topic. I find it absolutely fascinating you prefer a 7-11 pizza to a New York style. I'm so intrigued I'm stopping at the first 7-11 I can find to make sure your not full of BS. I'm all for a pizza thread.
