I can appreciate the hard working family taking a risk angle, but truly, it was surreal how one day the people you'd been friendly with for years suddenly disappeared and were replaced by strangers.  But that's business.  Social Darwinism.. What I didn't like was that they changed their pastry vendor. For years I bought maple bars for my weekly visit to my elderly mom. She claimed they were the best in town. Then one day I  find that they are no longer available, being replaced by a product that  can only be described as sugar coated cardboard.  Okay, replace the union people with low wage family members, its your right and your business model, but FFS don't mess with the maple bars.  I know I should be more sensitive to the  20 people that lost their jobs, the 20 families suddenly forced to cope with a lost of income, the prospect of not being able to meet rent or mortgage, but  it was the maple bars that got me.. Little foxes.
