who knew company founder Col. Harland Sanders.
olds. It’s like herding cats. They will run after that ball and
kick it as hard as they can.’ I love kids when their eyes light
up. When the kids call me coach, it makes me smile.”
In his off-time, Carr enjoys blazing Florida off-road trails on
his motocross bikes. But the businesses don’t necessarily run
themselves, he says. He says he is shopping around to comply
with the Affordable Care Act. Wages at his stores average $9.05
per hour and a manager’s salary starts at $40,000. Should the
minimum wage be raised to $10 or more, Carr says he would
have to cut costs and raise prices, but he would not want to
“let people go.”
“We have a low turnover rate, and the average tenure of our
managers is more than 14 years,” says Carr. “We are a good
company to work for. We treat people the way you would
want to be treated. Our top performers are paid well.”
District Manager Bernie Quintero began his career as an assistant
manager when he moved to the Treasure Coast in 1988
from Brooklyn, N.Y. “We started really young,” he says. “We
worked shoulder to shoulder. Jim loves to open a new store
and he knows what it’s like to scrub a floor. He is dedicated
to the belief of hard work and commitment. His family values
are second to none. He cares about the families at every store.
With Jim, what you see is what you get.” E
