I love the description for the second hard badge.
"Why do you do this to yourself? No one forces you to earn these badges." - The irony is too strong in this one.

Just so it doesn't get lost: if you name yourself "almostpapa" at the start of the game, you start the file at rank 30, with 35 customers unlocked and all but the 35th one being gold rank. Should give you the first 3 badges instantly. Then you can grind out 16-17 days for the last one, which is more than any reasonable person should do to enjoy this game.

Day 57. Accidentally clicked Erase Saved Data. World stopped turning. Heart stopped beating. Now I know what it would take for me to commit suicide. Confirmation window. Still alive.

I like how the last hard badge on this game has less people who have it than some "impossible" badges. This game's simply not fun enough to warrant the time.

The dude's face as he flips the sign to "OPEN" is an accurate picture of me grinding through this game for the badges...

For the Endurance Hard Badge, as soon as you get a gold badge for a customer, start feeding them raw unsliced cheese pizzas. You will get glared a lot, and you will not get any tips, but you will save THOUSANDS of clicks. If you use 'almostpapa' as your name you will skip straight to one day before unlocking Papa Louie. This will save you tens of thousands of clicks and hours of playing this game long beyond the point that it is fun. You will still have to spend 15 days feeding Papa Louie his absurdly complicated pizza to get the badge. Good luck, and + to keep this comment alive!

At the time of writing this comment, 115,219 people have earned the easy badge. Only 5,364 went on to get the final badge. That's 4.7%. Today, nearly 4 years after earning the easy badge myself, I have come to the end of my Pizzeria journey. Here's to adding my .000008%.
Huzzah.

For anyone thinking about going for the hard badges: it took me 58 days to get the first and 119 days to get the second. It was incredibly tedious. They are labeled endurance badges for a reason.

WHY?! Why did they badge this game?! I've gone for so long avoiding this game! I can never satisfy these people, yet they keep coming back! Are the point of these games to see who can go postal in the fastest amount of time?

me: "oh i'm sorry sir i gave you the wrong pizza let me get the right one for you"
customer: "NO i want this pizza and im not going to give you a tip"

So, I asked Kingsley if he wanted me to cut his pizza into 4 or 8 slices....he said "you better cut it into 4. I don't think I can eat 8."

So I reached day 100 and all of my costumers were gold so I got papa. Then I realized that if I just gave everyone a plain pizza with no toppings that had only been in the oven for a microsecond, then they would still be gold costumers even though they were be mad at me, so what if the were. So I hope they all like cold cheese pizza 'cause that's what their getting. I don't care about tips anymore anyways.

I love how the cheerful music comes on and they jump with joy when they get their pizza done right. Not to mention the pizza glows:)

You know, when they complain about how long the wait was, I should explain to them that I am literally the only person working in this place and I haven't had a day off for nearly 3 weeks.

The real problem lies in the fact that we have to factor how long it takes for the customer to order, and then the time it takes for them to look at the order, judge the order, and give you a tip (or lack thereof). That really makes it hard to get everything good.

don't you think the cheering is a bit patronising? 'here is your pizza sir' 'YES!!!!! YES, YOU GOT IT RIGHT! I DON'T BELIEVE IT OMG YOU MADE MY PIZZA! OH YES!' 'yeah...., goodbye'

I once worked in a pizzeria. It was a great job, but frankly way too easy. It usually took only about 10 seconds for a customer to order a pizza and I didn't have to write it down. You could pretty much just add toppings haphazardly. We cooked all the pizzas for about the same length of time, and if one was ready early, we could take it out and let it cool. Using a pizza cutter was so easy it was almost fun. Most of all, we had several people working so that the person taking orders didn't have to make the pizzas.
I used to wonder how long I would waste my life in that job.
Until I found this game, that is. This really takes thing up a notch : exact quantities of toppings, not being able to cool off pizzas or re-cook them if they weren't cooked long enough, having to be pretty exact about the orientation when cutting the pizza. If I had not moved on from my GED to a 2 year degree, I'm not sure I would have been awarded the Register Biscuit Badge.
Thanks Flipline Studios!

for quick botd, make the perfect pizza for wally and maybe 1 or 2 other customers. the rest? uncooked, uncut cheese pizzas. just skip all the menus

Would be good if you could pick up multiple of the same toppings, rather than clicking and dragging 8 individual anchovies!
