[07:44]	IsambardPrince	Slime in the ice hopper, tells people to grab day old bread from the trash and make sandwiches because that shit costs money.
[07:45]	IsambardPrince	Half his stores had to be closed because they didn't draw in enough customers to be worth the leases and labor and franchise fees.
[07:45]	IsambardPrince	It's not ALL his fault that he has to do various illegal things to stay open at all.
[07:45]	IsambardPrince	Corporate targets immigrants to be franchisees.
[07:46]	IsambardPrince	It makes the entry costs manageable, but once you're in they start beating you up.
[07:46]	IsambardPrince	The ongoing expense is higher. They hit you with promos that lose you money but increase your revenue so they can take more.
[07:47]	IsambardPrince	The latest thing they made him do is invest in a meat slicer so they could be more like sandwich shops that are actually good.
[07:47]	IsambardPrince	That meat slicer cost him several hundreds of dollars and he had to put one in every store he operates.
[07:47]	IsambardPrince	Just another unfunded mandate, and it did not attract more customers.
[07:48]	IsambardPrince	They stretch you so thin there's barely any money, so you pay your employees exactly minimum wage and not a penny more, ever.
[07:48]	IsambardPrince	Then they have no loyalty, so you get turnover.

[18:48]	schestowitz[TR2]	40+ years working directly with IBM clients, with a clean yearly appraisal. Turned 65, and within a month was put in a PIP and given 60 days to "improve". Met all the requirements within the 60 day period, but at the final PIP review, I was told I failed the PIP. The reason given was total BS, and I was pushed out immediately and forced to sign a separation agreement giving me a pathetic 1 month salary. Wow, it doesn't pay to be a
