    I interpreted both messages as said by the pizza guy

    1-st one he says that Pizza’s here

    2-nd one he realises that nobody’s there and that he will be able to eat the pizza

    And the joke would be that he couldn’t afford the pizza with his normal wage so he sheds a tear of joy

      What about the “I” in “I shout to the the empty house”? This would mean that the pizza guy refers to himself in first person in the first line but in the third person in the second line which seems very unusual to me.
