Most of my neighborhood was adamant about not giving Front Street Market's new owners any business. It's not bull. It's absolutely what happened.

People get too self-righteous and indignant about this stuff. When a business changes hands, no, you are not entitled to your job. You have to interview and be hired by the new ownership, who may have different policies, different benefits, different wages...that's life. Anyone who's worked as a contractor knows this - when the contract is going to change hands, you have to interview for your own job.

I think it's disgusting how quickly the Issaquah community jumped to hate on the family who tried to keep the Front Street Market afloat. Now we've lost another local business, and the location will inevitably be sold or leased to some chain.

Well done.
