The Plight of Dry Cleaners

Judge Suing Dry Cleaners $67 millions for pants

This is outrageous. People do not realize how hard and stressful owning a dry cleaner is. They wonder, how can someone loose a simple pair of pants? Well, everyday, hundreds of items of clothing have to be processed, labeled, spot treated, cleaned, pressed, and sorted. These items of clothing look very similar. The turn around is only a few days and people love their clothes a lot (maybe a little too much). I would say that the majority of dry cleaners are hard-working families who have the difficulty of daily balancing the dynamics of earning a living and helping customers out as best as possible. At least that the case with what I've experienced.
