“Jimmy John’s is the perfect fit for Fernandina Beach, with our ability to get around to most of the island’s inhabitants for delivery. Plus, our friendly, fresh, fast offerings meet the lifestyle needs of the locals,” said owner Joshua Knoerle, former owner/operator of Imo’s Pizza in St. Louis. “In addition, the brand is a known quantity to most of the hundreds of thousands of tourists who visit the island each year. It really is match made in paradise.”
Knoerle says he plans to hire 25-30 employees. Anyone interested in applying can do so by visiting snagajob.com, or by coming into the store, open from 11 am – 10 pm daily, and filling out an application.

Just what we need – another fast food place that doesn’t give workers sick leave (think about it – your sandwich may have been made by someone who has a cold, the flu, or almost anything – and you can’t tell), restricts their ability to work elsewhere, and – like all carry out fast food places, adds to the proliferation of wrappers, cups, napkins, and other trash left behind.
Always excited to see something new open up hutvwas disappointed it was Jimmy Johns. They have terrible employment practices that hurt workers. I won’t be patronizing this new business.
