Be Cool to the Pizza Dude

"Be Cool to the Pizza Dude," by Sarah Adams, is about how everyone should be nice to the pizza delivery guy because then you'll have good luck. She discusses several things in her short story, including staying calm while driving, the need to take any job just for the money, doing honest work, and practice in equality.
The first topic Sarah Adams discusses is her ability to remain calm when the pizza delivery guy is driving. She says that delivery people will frequently cut her off, neglect to use blinkers, and change lanes. However, Adams remarks that he's on a journey and that everyone should let him pass safely to deliver the pizzas to many different types of people.
The second topic Adams gives insight into is empathy. She says that everyone has taken a job that they don't really like or respect because they need money. I think this is a very good point; many young people work at gas stations because they want to earn a little money. She says that just because he has a bad job he shouldn't be blamed for it; he should, rather, be looked at with empathy.
The third topic Adams delves into is honor. She remarks about how today there are people who are big, important businessmen who are very corrupt. Adams discusses how they ruin their companies, take away jobs, and then profit from these tragedies. The pizza delivery guy, although not the greatest job in the world, is at least doing something honorable.
The final principle that she touches on is equality. She says that she feels pride in performing her job and respecting others. Adams remarks that she is, "equal to all I meet because of the kindness in my heart." This is an honorable notion and I think it's true. You are only equal if you both give and receive respect.
The short story, "Be Cool to the Pizza Delivery Dude" by Sarah Adams, is about how the delivery guy can relate to all things in your life: patience, empathy, honor, and equality.
