I would have disliked it more if it was the original owners, once Ms. Chan bought it the quality of the cakes suffered, especially in the Saratoga store. It went from being my 'go to' place for a delicious chocolate on chocolate cake to 'I've not been there for like 3 years now.'
Come on - your local bakery (even if it's a chain, even if you don't like it as much as you used to) is a low-margin enterprise. Getting screwed out of thousands of dollars is tough on places like that.
Plus that was just the example. If they were net-30 on the break room food, it's a safe bet a bunch of freelancers and other local businesses also had losses.
