I wonder how these places can afford to keep their doors open.
In certain locales they can’t. Locations that aren’t near the source of part time workers like high school students have difficulty in attracting workers. Specific to this location a high school student would need a car to drive from the high school to Colony. No transportation, no workers. The other issue is the minimum wage requirements. Fast food franchises are the hardest hit economically and when in some areas the minimum is $17.00 per hour, they will either reduce staff or automate, or close.
