I am still trying to understand how Chick Fil A can afford to hire nothing but young white people who speak English and have enough of them that they can put 300 outside standing in the drive thru lane to make sure shit runs smoothly plus another handful of 18 year old attractive white chicks inside to serve your food with a smile and be friendly as shit bending over backwards to yell "My Pleasure" at every turn. You would think with the growth of Chick Fil A the other fast food chains would take notice and stop hiring these people. I am not kidding my local McDonlads has a mix of black and Spanish people and honestly I would rather take the black guy who think's I am the white devil who hates his job over Santiago simply because I can at least understand ebonics better than spanish.

Pretty typical Chick Fil A staff

It's simply black vs. white, goto a black chik fil a, and you'll have just as bad service (they exist).

I don't think I've ever had an expense denied. I've even gone to Morimoto and shit and racked up fat bills.

But I'm in sales and the rules are generally a bit more carefree for us.

The one Chick-fil-A we have here is mostly black folks, but it’s still the same deal: young, friendly and slathering your asshole with “my pleasure.” I dunno where the fuck they find all these nice people, either that or each Chick-fil-A gets some secret machine that zaps employees into being friendly.

Could it be the interview process? It'd be pretty easy to tell the difference between a happy person that was going to be good for chik fil a vs some dumb ass that was not happy about working there? Plus, the wages are higher, yea?

I don’t know the wages could be higher, they seem to always have a surplus of staff, and they all get Sundays off yet they are still making fat stacks of cash and growing faster than the others. You would think the other fast food places would then mimic their style.

This is just copying what In 'n Out has been doing for decades. They just are not looking to expand as much.

My sister worked at one for about a year while she finished school. They paid like 2 bucks over what any other fast food place offered and said they were really nice and they helped work around any issues employees might have. She said they are very selective with their hires, because they can afford to be. They were easily getting over a hundred apps a week at her store. They are also trained to be courteous as part of the job and those that didn't have the social skills not up to snuff were usually hired for the kitchen.

It's almost like if you have great customer service, quality food, and take a little bit off the top.of the profits and reward employees it's a better overall experience. With what McDonald's makes a year it could easily pay everyone a bit more..or selectively hire. Or literally do anything.

Chik fil a has a great business model. Only two fast food restaurants here have a line in the drive through all day here And it's McDonald's and chik fil a. I'd much rather eat at chik fil a. At least they put on the facade that they care.

Pay minimum wage, expect minimum work.

Crushed out a bag of these bad boys today while slaying the Emperor of Ssraaeshza, it was a good night.

The talk reminds me of Costco. You know (at least here) that when you interact with a Costco employ that they are paid decently and treated well. Go over to wally-world and you know real fucking quick that not a single employee gives a flying fuck, because why would they?

Are these hipster Swedish Fish that cost $5 more than the same size of Fish? Because that's what they look like!

Nah, it's Trader Joe's its 2.99 for 14oz so about the same as swedish fish except these are different flavors, they are closer to juju fish except way better.

Anyone here use the BK app? Wondering how often the coupons cycle for you other folks. Takes forever here and I'm getting sick of the double Steakhouse combo.
