Was just reading posts on Papa John's Facebook page

You've just lost a household of customers. Good job. How dare you try to play politics. You're a fu$*ing fast food chain. Absorb the cost and deal with it. Pizza Hut is the new favorite. -dislikes the page-

you should see some of the comments under that post.

Papa screwed himself.

Big Time.

3. They are getting pounded in FB comments

and that will probably not be the best thing. I recall a certain NetFlix issue and BOA when they tried to raise their fees. Both took a shellacking on FB and both found a change of heart.

4. Thanks

I suspect there is a story in politics of fast food.

5. I like how they attempted ...

to weasel their way out of a PR blunder by saying they were merely responding to an analyst's question ... Because EVERY business person worth their salt posts market analysis to its facebook account!



However, reading through the postings, I was somewhat disappointed that no one noted that the ACA exempts employers with less than 50 full-time employees.

I suspect that would cover 99.999% of pj franchises, since pj franchisee information indicates that franchises typically employ between 15-25 employees and most of those are part-timers.

7. you missed this one

Bruce Tyrone Small ‎14,000 employees papajohn has...says if they offer healtcare to it's emplyees it would cost them 28 million dollars...big lie...Papajohn makes most of it's money thru franchising. Most of it's emplyees are parttime and don't even qualify for healthcare coverage...To the CEO of Papajohn's, sell pizza and stay out of politics...I'll be ordering my pizza from some other pizza joint from now on...
