When I first lived in Chicago—late 60s/early70s—there was a mom-n-pop hotdog place in Uptown that hired only neighborhood people, treated & paid them well, and gave the neighborhood two free-hotdog days every year. Other stores in the neighborhood had theft/hold-up/burglary problems, but not that hotdog stand.
excellent piece. I live in a hypothetical world mostly. Reading about those people and my heart is not judgmental and kind. However, the fuckers who stole your converter should be stomped! Ma

I wonder if that would still work...
