    Very few local restaurants can produce a lot of “food” on short notice. Even fewer that you’ll have a corporate/expense account already open with that makes billing nice and easy for your admin/accounts payable team.

      They probably have an employee that is security cleared as well, and gets paid a little more for it.

        Not in my experience, clearances are really expensive (last I saw it was in the $5-6k range per initial clearance package, and about 2/3s that each reinvestigation). Most secure workplaces will have a lobby for receiving things like this where they will call either a central mailroom to deliver it or whomever ordered it to come grab it (especially if it still needs paid for).

          You’d be surprised, I had a $13 an hour job for the government previously that required security clearance up to and including an investigator asking me questions about what I put on my application and 32 page long security form.

            Yeah, I am very familiar with the clearance process. Not saying lower wage jobs don’t exist with clearances (I mean buildings need custodians and janitors, cafeteria workers, repro office workers, etc), just that I can’t imagine Dominos requesting, getting sponsored, and then paying for a delivery driver to be cleared, it just isn’t needed.
