Where is The Noid? What happened to The Noid? Will The Noid return? These are questions! We want answers! In this section I have interviews! Instead of just sitting at my computer making up theories, I actually went out and investigated! I have interviewed several people! Some of them affiliated with Domino's! Who knows, maybe they have answered one of your questions!
Oh yeah, and before anyone asks--yes, the interviews really did take place!!!
This is an actual interview that took place at my local Domino's affiliate!
Domino's Manager: Can I help you?
Me: Yeah, hi, I was wondering if I could interview the manager here? Just for a few minutes...
Manager: For...
Me: Oh, I’m running a pizza-related website. And I’d just like to ask the manager a few questions, to get his input on a few things.
Manager: Shoot. [Note: he meant shoot as in "Go ahead and ask me the questions"! Not shoot as in "Aw, shoot! This jerk is asking me questions!"]
Me: You're the manager?
Manager: (Nods head) [Note: He did not say this! The parentheses are indicative of a description of a non-verbal action!]
Me: Ok...can you describe the feeling you get when you deliver a fresh, quality pizza to your customer? [Note: I didn't want to start off with a question about The Noid! I decided it would be wiser to ease into it!]
Manager: (laughs) I don't deliver the pizzas.
Me: ...ok.
Manager: (here he says something about quality, but to be honest I can't make it out, because the sound quality on my tape recorder is really really bad!)
Me: Alright...but quality is good, right?
Manager: Yeah.
Me: Alright, let's cut the small talk--what do you think of The Noid?
Manager: The what?
Me: The Noid.
Manager: The Noid?
Me: Yeah...do you remember him?
Manager: Yeah.
Me: What do you think of him?
Manager: He's aight.
Me: Alright...is there any chance of him returning?
Manager: (sounding unsure) It's possible.
Me: Can you give me a percentage? Like how likely is it?
Manager: Don't know.
Me: Thank you for your time.
Right after interviewing the local Domino's manager, I was so mad I decided to go to Little Caesar's! That is where this interview took place!
Me: Hi, I just came back from Domino's...it was sad!
LC Guy: Can I help you?
Me: I just wanted to say that this place is better...at least you pick one mascot and stick with him. [Harsh, I know, but I was really frustrated]
LC Guy: Thanks a lot.
Me: Do you remember The Noid? From the Domino's commercials?
LC Guy: Yeah.
Me: They aren't gonna be making any new commercials...I asked them!
LC Guy: (Here he says something which I can't decipher! Sorry guys, but my tape recorder stinks!)
Me:If you ask me, Domino’s just doesn’t care about quality, and delivering quality to it’s customers...would you agree with that?
LC Guy: I haven't been to Domino's in ten years. [Note: Ten years? Why, ten years ago is right around the time Domino's quit airing The Noid's commercials! This man must be one of thousands who defected to Little Caesar's when they canned The Noid]
Me: You're a good man! See you next week!
LC Guy: Ok...next week.[Note: Sadly, I never saw him the following week. I'm sorry, but as mad as I am at Domino's, I would still feel bad if I ate at another pizza restraunt]
