Flauros 02/11/22 11:52:11 PM #14:	Most subways i have seen have 2-3 people tops during peak hours. Some have just one guy and his wife running the place. They sacrifice service speed to cut down on spending while jacking up prices. A turkey, ham and cheese sub was 10 bucks a few days ago. No chips no drink just that.
