But wait! There's more!“How would Artie “T” handle this”

An amazing article about how this company is following Artie T's business model.

{snip}

Talking to the protesters every day it became clear on day one that Arthur T. Demoulas put his workers and his customers first. Employees happily recounted how Artie “T” had helped them during the death of a family member, showing up at their homes with baby formula after the birth of a baby, and donating money and or food to workers who were going through tough times.
The stories were so numerous it would take all 40 pages of this newspaper to recount even half of them.

As a small business owner myself, I was in awe at the way Artie “T” treated his employees but I was even more in awe, in the selfish narcissistic culture we live in today, that the employees and customers actually recognized and appreciated what Artie “T” had done for all of them and what he truly represented to the entire community.
