Goodby to the eternally going out of Business Discount Electronics store, Wendy's and White Castle. Hello to Shake Shack, Luxury apartments, Nordstrom Rack and Gap.
Please continue to be a refuge for independent entrepreneurs and those who just need a place to sit and nod into blissful opiod oblivion. Please BK, stay on Fulton st, "DOBRO" likes it grimey!
BK bought Tim Hortons to facilitate moving their corporate headquarters to Canada to save on US taxes. There's no legal reason for BK to pay all those onerous US Corporate taxes.
BK protects shareholder value by allowing the market to determine the wages it pays instead of considering cost of living. Despite being worth about $12.5 billion, with gross 2013 profits of $951 million and having nearly $905 cash on hand, average pay hovers in the $8 per hour range.
For 2013, 33 year-old CEO Daniel Schwartz was paid $1.91 million, lots of money to me (a paltry amount compared to true financial titans), but Mr. Schwartz has higher aspirations of using his current position as a springboard to a career as a turnaround CEO king.
In conclusion, this BK is one of the last havens of what once was.
