It's my turn to take the next delivery, so I see there are two right now that have been placed for a campus in Oakland -- both are sitting at about 8 minutes on the timer, which means they're ready to be punched out and delivered.

But just as I'm ready to punch those two deliveries out, there are another two for the same neighborhood that just got placed. My choices are to let these other two orders sit on the timers for another 8 minutes by which time they'll be a nice red color on the screen, indicating that they're very late and then punch out all four deliveries for myself, or I can punch out the two orders now and use my "dummy account" literally a ghost driver with a different name to sign out the other two deliveries and take all four at once, delivering them in priority of time and convenience of route.

I use my dummy account to make the stats look better. Essentially, it means that the system shows us as having twice as many drivers working, while allowing us to take the deliveries we know we can make.

Shady as hell when it comes to store evaluations, but for customer satisfaction, we didn't have that many problems. My first two deliveries on my main account are finished, but I'm still making the deliveries on my dummy account, so I'm not going to be back in the amount of time that the system thinks that I should. Which one looks better for the store? You guessed it.

Option B. Now this is where things have a tendency to get a little hinky with the Tracker. Because there are a couple things going on now that aren't quite percent true -- but do show up a certain way on the Tracker. The biggest problem is that because, say, Bob just got back from delivering orders and signed back in, any online order that he was delivering as Bob is now marked by the Tracker as having been delivered.

But since Bob had five deliveries out and three of them were under his dummy account, Fred, Bob is still finishing his last two or three deliveries. So Bob may still has your order in his car and, quite possibly, another one on his route to deliver before he gets to your house , despite the fact that the Tracker has so graciously informed you that your pizza has already been delivered.

We would get a decent number of calls from people informing us that the Tracker told them that their pizza had been delivered, but that they didn't have anything on their table yet. You might get some people in-store and on the phones who tell you that the Tracker automatically does all that stuff, or that the driver should be there any minute and the Tracker just worked a little faster than your driver.

But rest assured, unless your driver really messed up, your pizza did not get delivered to someone else. Way to go Salim 3! There actually was a perfection check, and Salim 3 indeed made sure my order was perfect. Even if the tracker is bullshit, Salim 3 is the real deal. Within a minute, Salim 3 has gathered up the orders and is out the door, a prompt, efficient fellow.

I then conspicuously run outside, start my car and wait for him to exit the plaza. I struggle a bit to keep up with Salim 3, who proves to be a speedy driver, but I lose sight of him for only a second, then quickly catch up. I carefully watch Salim 3 as he gets out the order and brings it to the front door. As one of America's most prominent pizza chains, Domino's has built quite a legacy over the years.

They have their share of delightful and disappointing pizzas and irresistible desserts that are incredibly overlooked. Like any fast food juggernaut, they're also fond of experimenting with new ways to optimize your ordering and eating experience. One of their handy inventions is the Pizza Tracker. The app that follows your pizza's journey from the preparation stage to the moment your doorbell rings is an incredibly nifty piece of technology for the pizza-minded, but as The Wall Street Journal via Fox News tells us, several people have insinuated that the tracker comes with a peculiar extra topping of lies.
