Any business owner who wants to be respected should learn how to accept criticism. If they are unable to listen to what their customers have to say, they will probably not get far.

This is one of those rules that is so obtuse, it hurts your head to think about. Every job has some rules that make no sense.

They've come for their food, and they can't imagine leaving without it. When I worked in fast food, this happened every time I closed. As we shut the lights off ins…

When it's closed it's closed.
