New owners take over a thriving business and think they can just sit back and rake in the dough. Reputation will carry them for a period, but the inevitable ride is down the tubes.
Some have indicated that Barbara and Bruce still have some financial interest in WP's. I wish them well as they try to recover the fruits of their hard labor in building a fantastic reputation. To do so, the new owners will definitely have to step up to the plate and make some hard changes. It doesn't seem like they have the interest or know how to do so.
Sad situation.......
