located near a school after I got off work about 4p.m., they were closed. A kid waiting for his parents told me they close every day from about the time school gets out until about 6, because of the kids. So, I went somewhere else.

Fast food is becoming/has become less affordable.

Better yet, make my own burgers (they are bigger and much tastier and my friends love them, just takes a lot of time).

With food costs going up, they probably took a harder look at their marginal profit stores and found they were not profitable anymore.

Reading the local news, there is now only one Arby's in the area. Trickle down effect is happening, the higher paying jobs are going bye bye, so people cut out not only skip nicer dining, but also fast food.

In other words, they're already profitable, but it's just not enough profit.

How much is enough? What's the exact percentage of profit needed to prevent one of these greedy, sh*t-selling fast food franchises not to close hundreds of stores they foolishly opened during periods of hyper-expansion and throw thousands of people out of work?

Wendy's.

More natural fries (I wish they were crispier), better fresher buns, better tasting burger (even though it seems boiled) nicer lettuce and tomato and similar pricing. I’ve recently eaten Wendy’s (once in 10 years), and I have a fish sandwich at McDonald’s every few months. I gave up on their burgers years ago.

Well... I say "now" but what I mean is "the last time I purchased one there a few years ago".

Was it one of those situations where they donated ONLY to Trump, or were they hedging their bets by donating to both the GOP and the Democrats?

Their quality has gone WAY downhill in recent years so it was no big loss (or change of routine) to avoid them. Oddly enough, Arby's quality has remained consistent... but since they too are part of the Wendy's "family"... we've scratched them off of our list of fast-food indulgences.

Fuck em all.........
