Girma Eshetu, TU's local Papa Johns worker

 By Olin Wright

My profile focused on TU student Girma Eshetu. He works at one of the local Papa Johns. Girma has worked here since last year. his position is delivery driver. he delivers all around midtown Tulsa and occasionally north Tulsa.

"This is my way of making extra money. I make a regular wage here and combined with tips, its not a half bad gig,"He says.

I followed him to work one day and saw firsthand how the delivery service works. There is a huge 100 -nch TV in the back and this shows where and who goes where. The deliveries are mapped out on the TV screen and show where each delivery is headed and which driver takes it there.

I went with Girma on each of his deliveries and learned how the pizza delivery business worked. Some of the delivery computer work looked relatively confusing but Girma said, "It's not very challenging once you get to know the job itself.
