Ok... So maybe my title is a bit extreme; which is what a ignorant (not a negative word by definition) would think if they've never experienced Quick Checks' lackluster products. Yeah I said it. I don't care how happy their jiggle is. Maybe you've never heard of the place. That percentage is plausible. Or perhaps there isn't a Quick Chek totalitarian around your area to complain about. Fair enough, innocent soul. Let me be the first to express how ultra aware I am on the variations of quality within any given business. As a rule of thumb, the lower the cost in invested commodities, the lower the risk of financial inefficiency. However there is no excuse for failure under tzar rulership. A Walmart couch would have a rough time living up to the quality of say, a Bobs Furniture regardless of the cheapen materials used on both sides. One of these example companies can be said to have preferable up sale with the potential of the product(s) maintaining longevity as oppose to a quick cash grab. To be fair, Both companies play to a certain market of buyers. But how they tie in to a Quick Chek discussion is that at least these two monarchies are trying to please.
A tyrant by Merriam-Webster definition: one resembling an oppressive ruler in the harsh use of authority or power. Quick Chek came to power in 1966 as a off branch of Durling Farms. It's success came from the result of offering goods that hadn't required long preparation time while also serving as a mini mart. It expanded it's financial reach by investing in the branding and services of their own gas stations. The convenience ploy worked. The problem is that Quick Chek is stuck on a old model of thinking.
In a new age of resourceful knowledge about nutrition, poisoning the masses with an array of foods and drinks that contain nothing but processed sugars is appalling. "Get off your high horse, everyone sells horrible products based on it's overall consumption", you might say. Fine. That doesn't change the fact that if your going to become my fast food ticket to the grave, at least let the products taste good. Scared of losing the race against healthy communal liberation, Quick Chek dissatisfies with subpar on-the-go breakfast sandwiches that can do without the 2 paper stripes of bacon or the almost cooked sausage frisbee. Wrapped sandwiches consisting of boarder line chicken meat, untrustworthy tuna, and the lightest set of bread to cold cut ratio. Boiled eggs are also sold. Cloned eggs taste like they sound. Yogurt is sold. The cheapest brand has a knock out amount of 23 grams of sugar while the market driven Dannon's fake invigorating Greek Yogurt stands out to be comparatively healthy. There is an abundance of throat-scratching muffins lying around if you like, though microwave use is optional. Made on the spot hot and cold sandwiches grade higher than the former in part because of the desperation in the moment and not the quality of the breads, foods, delicacies or sauces. "It's called Quick Chek for reason. No one is dining there", you might said. For one, you'd be wrong. There are small sections of the store where even smaller chairs and round tables are placed. I understand the "let my quality off the hook" store name but when hundreds of workers are employed there and hundreds of customers are spent for time, the continuation of treating your money maker like Durling's Farm cow feed is uncalled for. A better business model (I see your progression WAWA) is to use your profits to advance the communities health, while providing better quality food.
History has informed me that tyrants usually assassinate all those who speak out against their cause. So I may not have time to deliver this message. Quick Chek is brilliantly aware that people need goods and services, STAT. This could be why their website advertises being the first to waive a ATM service fee. It's "quick" services will stand the test of time even if the actual brand won't. CVS has took a stand to lose out on smoking customers and project more fruits and "healthier" drinks, even if just for marketing purposes. They are at least catering to a rising demographic of intelligent individuals that see the harm in buying fast and the positives on allowing a conglomerate to fall. I haven't forgotten that bodegas are essentially obsolete and you've failed to progress upward after your kingdom takeover, ol' mighty Quick Chek. To rule the land you must be flexible enough to bend with the notion that you can't ever lose if you project yourself for the people.
Doritos buying out the first two layers on the chip racks is ingenious being that they were scientifically made to be highly addictive. That doesn't place you in tune with us "peasants". It just means your willing to die knowing you negatively effect the long term health of others.Placing bananas in a wooden flower bin doesn't make it right either. Being one of the sweeter fruits, you get no bonus point for placing them by the doorway. Cut the marketing crap your highness. Allow the health in communities you build and burn through to flourish, just as you'd like your business to. The grim faces seen at each of your sites prove the dehydration of ones energy off temporary stimuli. Wake up! Like a seasoned politician, you too are out of touch with the malleability in every community that doesnt have a Whole Foods where you stand. Warning shot complete...
