Ever been a manager of a store? I have. I did six years as general manager of a Papa John's. It was fucking terrible but I learned people skills while absolutely losing my mind in rage almost every day at the stupidity of the average customer and employee. This was an extremely high volume store. It was franchise though so maybe managers at a store owned directly by the corporation have more say. I had fucking zero say, just follow orders.

That company sucks balls. I worked at a franchise as a driver for a few years. Saw all the craziness. I still order from the same store I used to work at because my kids love the pizza, and the same 4 older dudes still work delivery there. Doomed to be stuck there for the rest of their lives. It's depressing

It depends on the size of the company in relation to the store. And yep, franchised means the owner has got to pay for improvements outside of the franchise contract. But still, our scales are accurate to 0.05g, which is overkill for food, and "only" around 7-10k per, if you only have to be accurate to 1g, they shouldn't be more than 1-2k.

What the fuck are you talking about?

About the example by OTP of his issue that they remove the scales next to the coffee, in relation to being the store manager, considering how little commercial scales cost, while also acknowledging that different stores (franchised or not, size of company vs size of the store) can impact the managers ability to provide such improvements to their customers.
