How would you like to work for this man? At 70, Joe Lueken is ‘giving’ (yes GIVING) his 400 employees ownership of his 3 grocery stores upon his retirement (instead of accepting multiple offers to sell the stores).

“My employees are largely responsible for any success I’ve had, and they deserve to get some of the benefits of that,” Joe Lueken told the Star Tribune. “You can’t always take. You also have to give back.”
