[22:12] DaemonFC Like $1 food that they lose money on with every sale. [22:13] DaemonFC Corporate likes doing that because Franchise Fees are partially computed using gross sales and customer traffic. [22:13] DaemonFC So you essentially cause foot traffic and sales by forcing them to lose money, and then sending them a bill for causing them to lose money :) [22:14] DaemonFC Then it's up to them to try to make up the loss by pushing add-ons, like side orders and coffees and Coke.

[22:18] DaemonFC If the store in Indiana had theft levels like this, they would have just closed the store, but they can't win here because there's nowhere in the area where they'll do better on shrink. [22:18] DaemonFC So the customers just get to pay for that. [22:19] DaemonFC I think that if they're going to have armed police, they should go back to only having one set of doors that work.
