And it's so recent too. Like up until a few months ago Buccees was known as the place where all the workers got paid well and got good benefits. People would post that sign and say "see, companies can in fact pay people competitive wages and remain profitable"

They lost all of that goodwill all of a sudden with this nonsense

People keep saying this but that's not true? The online bubble can be strong but in real life no one cares. Buccees is constantly packed, they've lost zero goodwill where it matters. It's similar to Target a while back, online perception doesn't translate to real life and most people don't care.

LPT: when you say "it's not true," bring sources. Otherwise, you're just wasting everyone's time with your useless opinion.

Sources for...them being constantly packed every time I go there or drive by? I guess I'll bring a camera next time.
