banging on

Here's poor old Steve with a new hobby horse.. what's he on about this time? Here's a little story from the book.. Ray Kroc was the founder of Macdonald's restaurants and at a seminar in Austin after a lecture asked the students what business he was in.. easy.. fast food.. right? wrong came the answer. Ray Kroc's business is in Real Estate. Each franchise owner sells hamburgers and pays Macdonalds a fee which it uses to buy the land under each restaurant. Macdonalds is now the biggest single land owner in the world..more even than the Catholic Church! Does anyone else find that amazing? Here's another titbit.. J.O.B. is an acronym for Just Over Broke! An employee only works hard enough to not get sacked and an employer only pays enough so people don't walk off the job! I'm rethinking everything watch out!
