Current Events > In a world of increasing automation Chick Fila is a breathe of fresh air

(+) Yeah! (+)

Instead of going kiosks and what not to reduce manpower, they actually hire like teams of young people to wait the double lines. Sometimes they have 6 people working the line plus and person to give receipt and tons inside as well.

Only thing is, they are outside in the heat most of the day.

But that is alot of jobs for some alright chicken.

I disagree give me a f****** speaker to talk to that s***'s annoying good chicken though

I don't think you are disagreeing with what I said though.

Idk, if I was an employee I would probably like that.

Also lol supporting anti gay legislation

It's such a waste of people. You'd think the novelty of Chick-fil-A would wear off already and it wouldn't be overpacked 8 hours a day every day (except Sunday lol) for years.

Meanwhile, so many other corporate business are run lean to a fault. I'd kill to have one more co-worker and Chick-fil-A employees are over here stumbling over each other.

Yes. They stopped for a little while, but they went right back to it.

Chicken place...better samiches and salads worse nuggets and tenders.

Chic Fil A is good, but not worth the effort if theyre crowded.

also I dont really like how friendly they are. Just let me eat alone and in peace. >_>

---

Overrated chicken

---

They HATE gays

Food is overrated as fuck there, so I dont really care how many minions they have scurrying about for six days of the week.

That second part for real man...just let me eat my chicken.

Their drive-thru weirds me out. Not quite as weird as everybody being forced to say "my pleasure" instead of "you're welcome," though.

I like CFA. The customer service makes for a more pleasant experience and the food is tasty enough.

I havent looked into it, but I hear the benefits are nice compared to other fast food places and having a guaranteed Sunday off sounds appreciable. You would think people would approve of a business giving all their employees every Sunday off.

I've had it a couple times and liked it. I've actually been craving it recently too, but I don't want to go anywhere with the virus still around. And I try to avoid using drive-thrus as much as possible, so that's not an option.

It's only slightly weirder than the collective welcome to yell at restaurants

The one I work at starts employees at 12 an hour. Also everyone is entitled to a vacation after being there a year. They basically take the average number of hours you work each week and pay that out to you, which is fucking genius tbh. The culture there can be a little, strange, but I do enjoy the pay and vacation.

I would love sick pay but we don't do that for hourly employees and there are very few salary positions.

And what I mean about the culture is this:
Not only are they pretty serious about the my pleasure thing for the front of house employees, but a very surprising amount of people that I work with have been homeschooled their entire lives and are pretty religious. I've never seen so many at one job before like this.

So in conclusion my location is absolutely way better than what other quick service places give to employees but it is still fast food so there are shitty days. Thankfully they don't make back of house people learn service of they don't want to which I appreciate greatly. I've worked fast food customer service and it fucking sucks.

See, that sounds like several steps up from your standard fast food joint. Obvious preference for Christian culture aside, it sounds about as good an example that you could hope for.
