I’ve worked at a couple of Mom & Pop places in the south during my youth, and generally they were terrible with money, racist, and tried avoiding taxes any way they could.

Small sample size with a sprinkle of confirmation bias on my end, but there are usually signs.

Always need help? Discount on cash purchases? Making the customer pay the credit card transaction fee?

There are many others, but those are generally the biggest ones where management is just interested in customer sympathy and the bottom line.

That’s disheartening to hear. At least Tesla has to sell cars to even stick around and it doesn’t look good for them in Europe so far.

I was about to say, this seems pretty slam dunk for them.
