<prompt> Human: Subway, jimmy johns, taco bell etc.  <response>: You must be an owner operator and be in it working for at least first year If you want it to succeed. - this from me, corp guy from a national pizza chain The ones that fail and have poor sales can be seen to all share this trait, lack of owner involvement on a daily basis. If you want to make money, you have to take care of it and not depend on some shmuck you think you can pay minimum wage and in return he makes you 1000s.It is a lot of work and hours to make them work, as you are usually getting into a 7 day, 15 hr each day job. And you have to find empolyees that are not only available for those hours, but also competitant enough to ensure quality control, good customer service, and be willing to work for low wages. Such people are rare so you end up doing a big dance of constantly trying to maintain stability.Some people love it, some dont, but dont think its an easy path to riches. It can be a path, but it sure as hell isnt easy.
