Some allow the purchase of dough balls, hopefully this location allows it too.
MR,
You are correct that some of the MM locations will sell dough balls. However, when I was trying to reverse engineer and clone the MM dough, I got conflicting information from MM employees on the dough balls weights for the different pizza sizes. So, as an employee, you might be able not only to purchase dough balls, but also ge them as gifts. And if that is the case, I would be interested in those different weights inasmuch as that is public information. In fact, I once called MM corporate on the dough balls weights and was referred to a local MM unit, which I did. Unfortunately, they gave information that later turned out to be wrong.
The above said, I would like to offer you some good advice. And that is to not disclose any proprietary MM information outside of MM. I suspect that you may have entered into a nondisclosure agreement with MM as part of the package of documents you signed as a new employee. Often, new employees just sign in the places they are told to sign and may not even know that they entered into a nondisclosure arrangement with the new employer. I recall one time giving the same advice to a new member who had disclosed very detailed trade secrets about the pizza place he worked at and how the dough was made and used. I gave him the same advice as I am giving you. As soon as he got my PM, he deleted all of his posts and closed his account with the forum and never returned.
Unfortunately, in today's climate where people leak or otherwise disclose private information without regard to the legal rights that the owners have in that information, private information often makes it into the public domain, including the Internet. I saw that in the case of MM in a couple of instances with MM company manuals. I saw the same thing with Pizza Hut, whose attorneys caught the disclosure and wrote to Steve, the owner of this forum, demanding that the documents in question be taken down from the forum, which he did. People who do these sorts of things should be fired or prosecuted, but often they are long gone after the disclosure or else the companies are unable to identify the miscreants.
