Finding community at the neighborhood mini-mart. Kim Nicolini, photos and essay. Tuesday, in Souciant.
I'm sorry, but this blog post is ridiculous. You don't like QT because it's clean, friendly and safe? QT is generally regarded as the best convenience store chain in the country. They treat their employees incredibly well, and it shows. I could understand disliking a company like QT if their outward appearance was hiding some devious business practices, but in QT's case, they're just running a good business. The secret to their success is no secret at all -- hire great people, train them well and treat them well. The rest will fall into place. All companies should strive to be more like QT.
Just went to post this. Sorry I missed it when you posted, it's an interesting piece. Great photos that ultimately made me crave a pink donut.
