Same here. We added Diet Coke and pan pizzas right at the end of my Domino's career, and that was a big honking deal. I can't imagine what it's like to work at one now.

Giving in to the nostalgia for a moment: there also wasn't a computer in the place. Everything was done on paper order slips and paper bookkeeping. No online ordering, so everyone paid with cash or check. No cell phones, so you couldn't call out to tell a driver he had the wrong address or the wrong pizza; you just had to wait for him to get back. And we still had the 30-minute guarantee, so we raced around like a bunch of maniacs even though the company kept telling us not to. Good times.

Yep, same. The only technology in the store was the desk calculator on the manager's desk.

And no GPS navigation of course. There was a big map of the delivery area on the wall in the back room. If you didn't recognize the address you'd look at that before you left the store and just had to remember the details.
