Its clear that management of these franchises don't know how to manage what they, themselves have created. I suppose part of the problem is the Franchise itself dictating minimum wage , 'cheap' employees along with the advent of the self serve drink machines. The cheapest of employees and self serve drinks for a higher price than when served from behind the counter are meant to increase profitability, but instead cost more in the long run due to theft. Fast food franchises seemed to do well in the past, but have evolved into management nightmares yielding little profitability in today's tough environment.
