ADAMANTIUM Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Just as a point of interest. I did get a prescreen pass to see the 1st episode of Wednesday, next ironically Wednesday 😂 I've been trying to keep up with the amazing race, but I think I'll go see Wednesday!

The father was a mailman and they put almost all their savings into it. It was takeout only, and it soon developed they couldn't afford to staff the place so Mom and the three kids ended up working fulltime. While they owned the business they leased the land it was on and after a few years the landlord decided to build a small shopping center there. They pretty much lost everything and moved after the business closed. Two other nearby Carvels have expanded since then so I don't know why theirs failed but it taught me an early lesson. You can plan ahead, work hard and still fail. jimjum12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
