Wow you sure are some kind of racist to automatically assume race as the issue.

The only things you said that has truth to it is they don’t pay more than other fast food joints and that it’s about culture.

The other stuff you posted is hog wash. Back in high school my smashing buddy worked there and the only qualifier that she had to have was that she was respectful and well-adjusted. She didn’t know anyone there. She was a cheerleader but she didn’t do any counseling youth groups and definitely didn’t attend church.

Being that Chick-fil-A is known as the top notch quality fast food place, it’s not hard for them to find great employees and choose the ones with character. They don’t need your volunteer hours and community service history

Are McDonald's and Burger Kings in Vermont similar to Chick Fil A's?

They pay well and are selective. It’s not hard to understand. It actually aggravates me sometimes. Just be normal and give me my sandwich.

I mean, Chick-Fil-A is great if that’s your thing and all...

For me, nothing compares to the joy of waiting in line and Burger King or Popeyes and hearing a muffled “Wut U won’t?” Blasting through the speaker. I reply courteously every time and say “can I please order such-and-such?”

I hate hearing my order confirmed and my total given to me. Instead, I love it when the employee taking my order ignores that and simply says “K pull-roun” and I do so.

I love pulling up to the window to pay, seeing laughter and enjoyment in the background... employees shouting expletives at one another and just ‘joshing’ around. They’ll even throw the N word ending in A in there on occasion. It’s really silly and fun, especially for kids. They then open the window and professionally avoid giving me my total still. I give them my card and they return it without all the inefficiency of hearing a “Thank-You”

Finally, I pull to the window to receive my meal. The ambiance of grease and food that’s been sitting for hours whisks over me. I am captivated. I am in heaven. The employee opens her window. The furrowed look on her brow let’s me know how seriously she takes her occupation... so focused that she almost looks angry. The sweat on her face shows the determination she works with, and the lack of a hairnet informs me that she must be working so hard that she hardly has time to even consider that sort of stuff. Then, nostrils flaring with each breath, She confirms someone else’s order with me. Realizing it’s a difficult job, and things can often be mixed-up; I’ll normally reply with a “No ma’am, that’s not mine, I had the such-and-such”, and they’ll say nothing about the near mix-up. Lastly, I’ll receive my bag. She’s even careful enough to not scratch me with her long, beautiful, colorful nails. I manage a nervous “Thank You” and drive away with the transaction complete. I will then open the bag only to have the biggest grin imaginable on my face... Those practical jokers got me again. They’re so thoughtful, they play this same prank on me every time, and I’ll have a meal that I did not order.

I mean, can you get that kind of dedication at Chick-Fil-A?

And, at the Popeyes anywhere:

I’ll order with a polite and well spoken, “A three piece all white spicy meal, red beans as the side, and a Barq’s root beer. Thank you!” Response is the usual, “Mmmmmmhmmmmmmm, dat be $9.37 cent”.

What I can’t hear as I drive to the window to get the order is, “3 piece, all white, honkee chickens.”

I get my order, drive off, open the bag and find the driest, cool to the touch, leather hard, smallest pieces of chicken known as “honkee chickens”.

Oh well, I gnaw in it in silence while understanding all along “why”.

They seem miserable to me. Not a fan of the hate-burger-express.

The franchise owner works there, it is a requirement. They limit the quantity of stores one person can own so the owner maintains close relationships with employees. They don’t allow corporate franchising so you don’t see a regional company that owns 20 of them in an area like you see with Popeyes and BK

Also I don't believe they franchise so everything is corporate owned/run


Incorrect. They franchise and have the lowest get-in cost in the industry: $10,000. Almost all locations are franchised and most owners are only allowed one store so they will be heavily invested in it and not always trying to expand.

And they train the hell out of their employees.

No. No.

They are homophobic monsters. Or at least their old Christian company owner was or is, if you ask him pointed questions.

Stick with that. Don’t frick it up for the rest of us.
