He’s “totally heterosexual” and he mentions that he’s doing this because they are against someone “just because (someone) wants to kiss a guy”
Yeah...right. Plus, there is that voice. Poor kids.

I believe he referred to Appreciate Chick-Fil-A Day as National Intolerance Day.

Adam does need new emplyment. Hmmm. I hear the Chic-filet is growing and may need more window servers. However, I must wonder if he can be sufficently gracious when encountering deliberately rude customers?

“Can’t imagine what good thing he possibly thought would come of this.”

I suspect very little thought went into it - he we was blinded by his leftist, self-righteous rage.

You can make pocket change pimping YouTube videos, I hear.

Oh, wait..she can sue him for publicly using her image without her express, written consent.

Hope she hires a lawyer.

Well Adam, someone with your qualifications would have no trouble finding a top-flight job in either the food service or housekeeping industries...

The confectionery industry can use him as a fudge packer.

Any competent employer has an “Employment at will” clause in their Executive contracts. This is dismissal for cause. He can file, he will get jack squat

“Some do not support Smith’s being fired as he was on his own time, not on company business.”

That might be a typical opinion for lower level employees, who never really think things through like management must.

This guy was an officer, and the company has customers, and suppliers, auditors, and other employees.

Putting himself out publicly in such a manner can attract a lot of negative attention, and his superiors decided they don’t need the hassle.

The same would have applied had the board of Chik-Fil-A decided to can the COO for his remarks.

Freedom carries consequences.

In my work, I have had dealings with gay people, client, agent, etc. And guess what? It never came up.

People who must bring it up too often, piss others off immensely, I think.

You really think this guy is a valuable asset...more than likely this was the final straw and the CEO is glad to be rid of an idiot like this!!

I bet dimes to dollars somewhere in his contract is a clause about holding up the company image even in the off hours.

Yep - he was an officer of the company, and as such had an obligation to uphold the integrity/image of the company. Had he been an hourly worker it would be much different - IMO...

Guess the moron should of read his employment contract before making a big deal out of his position to bully a defenseless teen age girl doing her job. He was fired with cause. Yhe company is well within it’s rights to expect a minimal level of professionalism from their Executives. It is one of the reason they get the big pay checks, they are always on duty, they have no “personal time”

Maybe. The far left protects their own. This guy was too obnoxious to keep his beliefs to himself. So they knew what he was and kept him there anyway. It could be that he was very good at his job or it could be all those working with him agreed with him.
