Mikes Drive In killing local jobs!

Don't tell me you don't notice the pattern. Wendy's gone. Jack in the Box gone. Artic Circle gone. Not to mention Quizinos, Arby's, KFC, Little Caesar's, Hometown Buffet and Round Table! Hundreds of jobs gone! Just because of a bunch of Garlic Fries and people buying Local!

Yes, and they probably had something to do with the demise of King's Table, too!

All kidding aside, I find it scary as hell, all these places closing down. One thing that's always given me comfort is I figured if everything went to hell in a handbasket with my life, I could still get a job working at a fast food place. Not so, anymore.

The rumor is that Wendy's closed because of inability or unwillingness to adopt ADA accessibility standards. Anyone know what really happened?

You'd think if it was another Jason Singleton scam that would have made the news.

Wouldn't it suck if a whole new strip of franchise retail/restaurantwere built all at once in downtown eureka? Ball's boy, Bohn, backs Big Box on the Bay!

Rex is all about big box on the bay\. If Mike's went out of business he'd use it as an example of why we need his sponser's big boxes. Moron.
