Why is it mostly Asians that run local donut shops?

Literally every one I've been to that isn't a chain has an oriental staff.

Out here in Philadelphia, it's mostly Khmer and a handful of Viet. No Chinese that I've ever noticed. There is one shop catering to hipsters that's owned and run by people who are so white that they likely bought televisions during the LA riots.

itt: Anecdotal evidence and stories don't actually tell a complete, accurate picture. Film at 11

>> No.5826857

Are you expecting a peer-reviewed study published by a university press on the kinds of people that own donut shops? Are you expecting said non-existent study to be posted on a Laotian children's cartoon picture webpage? Do you think there's a bureau or office that somehow would even bother to publish a study or a report on Asian people owning donut shops?

I'd argue that some arguments, some discussions, some suppositions, etc. don't need serious argumentation or discussion. I don't think anecdotal evidence damages something like this, and better yet, I don't think anyone's in danger from this sort of discussion. Asians owning donut shops have no moral, theological, philosophical, or practical impact whatsoever. In other words, Asians owning donut shops have literally zero impact on our lives.

Dubuque, IA. Dunkin Donuts is manned almost exclusively by Caucasian white folk. The manager is a sassy black lady who loves chatting with customers. I ran into her in my local grocery store and she said "Oh, so you DO eat regular food!". She makes me smile and laugh every time I see her.

actually a stats phd student was presenting his thesis to me a couple months ago. He had figured out which ethnicity's went into different businesses in Toronto.

Koreans are convenience stores, viets and thai split nails, jews have pawn shops. it is surprisingly cut and dry. Greeks run restaurants (at a certain level)

The reasons are b/c of business associations, nepotism, one starts a store, can teach the rest of them how to open up a shop in a noncompeting neighbourhood, they all hire each others' children and relatives. makes sense right? come to canada, either work shit temp job, or get uncle or friend to show you the ropes on what he already knows
