That's it, I'm not buying another Dominos pizza |
|
If I eat anymore, it'll be on someone else's dime http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory?id=1671484

Can't believe I ever worked for those sexist, homophobic, right wing, Bush loving assholes :mad:
Oh yeah, and they also treat their employees like shit... yet another Rethug trait to hate them for.

3. Why would anyone want to live in a town where sex is all but banned? |
|
I mean, that would be the next logical step there. There ain't nothing dirty about the human form. It sort of makes me wonder if he wasn't sexually abused when he was younger because that is really an unhealthy way to view sexuality.

5. Just when I thought these whack jobs couldn't GET any crazier |
|
I read this! Jebby's comment about this community "brining faith and freedom" together is especially ridiculous. How is it freedom when damned near everything someone does is regulated, banned, put down, etc.?
Oy. Perhaps they should just form their own country, and leave the rest of us the hell alone!

9. "Now let me tell you my story" |
|
"I got a man-sized predicament And it's a big one, goes like this, yeah" My my!
Never had confession, never had a home Never had no worry, until I met Domino
Ain't the virgin Mary, love her I confess Got no hesitations, 'cause she kisses like the kiss of death
Loves lots of money, back's against the wall Calls me "Sugar Daddy", she knows, she's got to have it all! They call her Domino,Domino,Domino!
Yeah
Got a reputation, haven't got a hope It's a sticky situation, if she ain't old enough to vote
Loves to play with fire, loves to hurt so good Loves to keep me burnin', 'cause she's a bad habit, bad habit Bad habit that's good, good, good
They call her Domino, Domino!"
I just about live next door to a Dominoes. I almost never eat there. I just don't like their pizza or their prices.

This guy doesn't have anything to do with the business anymore...he sold out a long time ago, so he won't be getting any of your money either way. At this point, not buying pizza from Domino's because you don't like this guy's psychotic religious views is a bit like not buying gasoline from a Chevron station because you think John D Rockefeller was a bastard.

I don't know who bought Dominos, but Monaghan sold them so he could start planning things like his American Taliban town.

unless he's getting residuals or options from Dominos, boycotting would only hurt the current management and employees. I don't like what he's doing there either, but this isn't likely to impact him in the least.

23. Boycott anyway -- current CEO is running the Republican campaign.. |
|
...for Michigan Governor. The current administration may not be as flipped out as Tom Monaghan but they remain very conservative.
I was in PR at Domino's for three years in the late 80s; the peak of Monaghan's craziness. For instance, it was mandatory to dress up for Halloween. And once we all had to come to work in evening clothes, watch a fashion show, and listen to him drone about proper business attire for an hour.
Women couldn't wear pants, open toed shoes, or sleeveless blouses to work; men had to wear suits and couldn't have beards. It was crazy.

20. I've never liked Domino's pizza |
|
but frankly I don't see anything wrong with this guy wanting to build his own replica of Jonestown - maybe the people who move there will interbreed and breed themselves out of existence. As long as they don't try to impose their bigotry on anyone else, let 'em go play in their own little sandbox.
Somehow I think I'm going to be proven wrong.

|
My kid loves their pizza. Ugh, I hate it. Has no color and tastes as bland as an overcooked eggplant. Their sides aren't much better, but still taste better than their crapcake pizza.

I remember hearing in the 80s that they gave money to anti-abortion groups.
Plus, avoiding Dominos is no big loss, that's for sure. :puke:
