An Indiana pizzeria gives 100% of its profits made on Christmas Day to its employees who volunteered to work.
The tradition began roughly five years ago as a way to thank employees for their hard work, Mathews said.
"Back then the business wasn't doing as well and the employees that we had, the bosses couldn't afford to pay them what they deserve, and it initially started out to show them what they were worth," he said. The store, located about 20 miles northwest of Indianapolis, was initially going to be open just a few hours from 4 to 9 p.m. on Christmas for carry-out orders but had to close early after a flood of calls came in.shortly before 6:30 p.m., the pizzeria announced that it was closing its doors because employees were swamped.Because of all the support from the local community who placed orders, this year's sales were the highest they have ever been.
"I can't properly convey the gratitude our employees, or we, feel. We are so thankful for the love & support you showed our employees," the shop posted on Facebook."We look forward to serving you next Christmas."
