I was the store manager of a dairy queen, and the owner was on the payroll for a very generous wage, leaving a similar small amount per week in “profit,” which is to say money that went back into the business for repairs/upgrades/maintenance. I haven’t worked enough places to know if this is typical, but he made it seem to me that’s how those businesses worked.
perhaps their margins aren’t as ‘slim’ as you think or they claim.
