Any business lost by Jim will be picked up by other hardware stores. Other hardware stores will need more people to handle the growing business. Everyone wins but Jim. Cause Jim is a ####ty business owner.
His labor wage is set at $30/ hr that so Jim has money to donate to a different charity every month, has money to sponsor a Novice hockey team every year and Pays the refigeration on a freezer in a prime retail location that the Elementary school sells cookie dough out of. His business is not poorly run, it is a communitty staple.
