Bhupinder's suicide note [PDF] said, ""Quiznos has killed me. Destroyed my life. Destroyed my family life for the past seven years."

This note was found on his body after he walked into a Quiznos bathroom in LA and shot himself three times in the chest.

We, like some of the readers, wondered how the shots were physically possible.

One of our readers, a former 7-11 owner himself, IM'd us to shed some light...

clokergod: I just read that post about Quiznos. I read the suicide thing a few days back, but how the hell do you shoot yourself 3 times in the chest?
benpopken: Not very carefully
clokergod: In a business like this one, I know from owning a 7-eleven at one time, lemme tell you, you don't really make money on anything but coffee since they heightened the prices of cigarettes
clokergod: You make a pot of coffee that costs exactly 5-10 cents to make, you sell 3-4 20 oz. cups for 1.20, that's where your profit is
clokergod: Once a store does something like make you buy their coffee beans at something like 40% more than you could get off the market, for the same coffee, then they send in auditors each month at a random time, that get the counts of cigarettes wrong, time and time again, and fine you like 11 grand until you correct the count, the stress and bullshit adds up
clokergod: Thats how a poor bastard gets the strength to shoot himself in the chest 3 times, he wants to MAKE SURE it's over

How could we not? It's got manuals, laminated posters, videos, buttons, a stopwatch, and more! (Click pic to enlarge).

Now all we need to do is pay a $25,000 licensing fee, hire some staff, buy all our supplies from company mandated vendors, and we're on our way to the American Dream on a toasted bun.

We'll be going through the materials and seeing if there's anything interesting or noteworthy, like if even the managers have access to Quiznos super-secret nutritional info.

Let's hope we don't shoot ourselves in the chest three times like Bhupinder Baber, who claimed in his suicide note that owning a a Quiznos franchise ruined his life.

We particularly enjoy that Quiznos included the book, "The E Myth Revisited: Why Most Small Businesses Don't Work and What To Do About It." — BEN POPKEN
