"As a direct result of the January ransomware attack, Yum! Brands was forced to shut down around 300 restaurants in the United Kingdom.

"On January 18, 2023, we announced a ransomware attack that impacted certain IT Systems which resulted in the closure of fewer than 300 restaurants in one market for one day, temporarily disrupted certain of our affected systems and resulted in data being taken from our network," the company said in its 2022 annual report filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Friday.

"We have incurred, and may continue to incur, certain expenses related to this attack, including expenses to respond to, remediate and investigate this matter."

In a January filing with the U.S. SEC, Yum! Brands also assured investors the ransomware attack would not cause any notable negative financial impact.

"While this incident caused temporary disruption, the company is aware of no other restaurant disruptions and does not expect this event to have a material adverse impact on its business, operations or financial results," the firm's SEC report reads.

Yum! Brands and its subsidiaries operate or franchise more than 55,000 restaurants across 155 countries and territories with the help of roughly 36,000 employees worldwide."

That's less than one employee per restaurant... that's God-Tier LEAN right there
Most of the restaurants are franchised; those employees work for the franchisee, not Yum. It's damn hard to run a restaurant with one person, let alone half a person; but it's pretty easy to franchise a bunch of restaurants with one person on the brand side.

Looks like they're mostly franchised--about 50 to 1, according to the latest numbers I saw, they have about 1000 corporate-owned locations as of 2021.

I was thinking the meaning was that "Yum! Brands" corporate employs 35k people, not that those people are tied into the restaurant worker pool.
 
Its been 248 years since Pluto has been around earth, it was around 250 years America was created..
Well with that substantial causational evidence, consider me convinced! Pluto dictates all actions in the world! THE END IS NEAR!!!

Pluto has never been "around" Earth and never will. Now if you meant goes around Earth then negative on that too as Earth's movement around the Sun makes Pluto go around Earth in a little more than a year each year.

I am talking about zodiac signs and what universe has shown us from history events.

this is right now Pluto will be in Aquarius from March 23 through June 11; January 20, 2024, through September 1, 2024; and November 19, 2024 through March 8, 2043. Between those dates, Pluto will go retrograde and head back into Capricorn, tying up loose ends and addressing any unfinished business.
