Re: Tubes were clogged said by Jodokast96:said by Maxo:The apples at the grocery store are practically free after the cost of the store purchasing the apples and paying someone to stock them. If they'd just let you take them they could remove that pesky cost of having cashiers.  Any idea of what how much, as a percentage, Verizon or any other DSL provider with sub-$20 service took in last year? I'm willing to bet it was more than the 1-2% the average supermarket made. And relying solely on future earnings to fund what you are doing now doesn't really seem to smart. What happened to previous years profits? Umm, excuse yourself bro. Considering the amount of people who eat in this world, and the average 2 week shopping equates to $70 ($140 a month), I doubt you can compare this industry financially. People won't starve to pay their DSL bill, and there is less DSL subscribers than people who require food on a daily basis on this planet. As a single entity, one might think a DSL provider made more than a supermarket, but again, think about it, $20 a month, versus $140 a month, average.

1 edit | I was talking about how much total profit there was at the end of the year, after every single bill and salary (including the owners) has been paid. In the supermarket industry, it is about a 1-2% profit. That being said, 8 stores in my area alone accounted for almost half a billion dollars in sales, but at the end of it all, there was between 5 and 10 mil. left over. Verizon, just as an example, might not have spent as much, or maybe more, I don't know, but I can almost guarantee they made back a lot more money than the 1-2% the supermarkets did. | |
