Good stuff !
Here's an action shot from today !
In the first booth, there's my colleague and I (English>French, French>English), and in the booth next to us, our Indian colleagues (English>Hindi, Hindi>English).
So when the Canadian Prime Minister spoke in French, we'd interpret into English, then the Indian interpreters would relay our English and interpret it into Hindi.
Then when the Indian Prime Minister spoke in Hindi, our Indian colleagues would work into English, which we then relayed into French.

I'd be inclined to agree for the UK -- but in NA it's a whole different kettle of fish.
I'd say Little Caesar's and Papa John's at top. Caesar's because I'm lazy, John's because its good.
Caesar's because I like pretzel crust (and it's the only one in my town). If I had to choose, Papa.
Domino's is the worse. I don't like it's crust (tastes like cardboard) and the pizza is almost always half assed.

The owner of ours is a real good dude. And I know several employees there, so I guess whenever they see my name, they do it correctly.
And, I dip my pizza in ranch dressing, so maybe that covers up the cardboard taste...
