I'd be remiss in reporting about the Sonic Conference Call if I didn't include a statement regarding the amount of time the Management Team spent talking about Employee Satisfaction and Training.

The Management Team indicated that their turn-over rate is at an all-time low, that 75% of their promotions were filled from within the company and that they've implemented a training and career-track program that will include every employee from the lot-porter to the CEO.

My favorite comment: They want to be the "Employer of Choice" for talented people in the Retail Car Business.
