You owning a GAs station right now would not be smart to do with that kinda of competition. But if you get a good location with no real competitor you might just bank.

At RT you have to apply in lower management and move your way up the ranks.

Yeah, I've noticed QT's & BP Connects all Follow Racetrac Gas Prices usually.

Is a war between RT and QT.. usually is back and forth.. someone always trying to lead the market up or down. Gas prices just need to go down

Higher wages that are forced by the government mean a couple of things from a business standpoint: Layoffs or Higher prices, the market will adjust and you're back to square one, although you are making more you are also paying just as much.
