Just put 33 people on staff at my new Pizza place in Florida. It is in Port St John Florida. Message me if you are ever near there and I’ll set you up with a free Pizza. 😉

Hey, congratulations, **Lanzy**!

I am a job creator too, although I have just 6 employees, not 33. Welcome to the club! Feels good, doesn’t it?

Now, where are my billions. I mean I should be rich or something, shouldn’t I?

33 people isn’t a pizza place, it’s a restaurant! Congrats!

Well, he _is_ the big cheese, isn’t he? He’ll flip if anyone pans the place.

Well done **Lanzy**.

I’d love to be a job creator. I’ve had a position vacant for several months, but I haven’t been able to find the right candidate.

I grew up about a mile away, and still have gobs of family very close by, so I’ll make a point of stopping in the next time I’m down that way.

Does it involve web development, technical writing, content creation, or ebook formatting? 🙂

Sorry, then, I can’t help. Unless your actuary needs an HTML5-based front end? 🙂

Do you deliver? I’m only around three hours south of you…

Congrats on the place. And the jobs. 🙂

Years ago, I read of tiny jets that James Bond might have used. I thought they would be great for pizza delivery, and also shooting down the forces of opposing companies. These days, it would probably be drones. Do you deliver by drone? If so, do international boundaries pose a problem? My roommates eat an _awful_ lot of pizza.
