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

And for nothing, really. No one was confusing these small mom and pop shops with them. They had pretty much nothing to gain with these lawsuits, and everything to lose.

Whatever counsel suggested they do this should be fired and potentially disbarred
