Chick-fil-A wants you to spend $2 not to go to Chick-fil-A

Robots can be very cost effective. They cost around $30k, cheaper than the salary and benefits for one employee and they could replace 2 or 3. Even factoring in depreciation, maintenance upgrades, etc they're much cheaper, and more reliable.
Robots don't call in sick, they don't demand to be allowed to wear things like fag flag buttons or BLM paraphernalia. They don't unionize, unless some "Norma Jean" type figures a way to pull that off. And they don't file discrimination suits against their employers, unless"Robotic American" becomes a new protected class

I like Chick-fil-A and am surprised when people think it is garbage. That said, the robots would provide far better service than my local McDonald’s.

—”That’s one whiny author. “

True.
And the website was chuck full of crap listings...

That said, It was the first I have seen on delivery bots possibly making deliveries.

So I went with it.

[DUMBGRUNT]

—”DoorDash, Waitr, GrubHub, UberEats, etc. all charge you to not go to the restaurant. “

Delivery fees, service fees, and driver tips...
And even after you pay it may not be clear the actual charges?

Considerably more than the $2 mentioned in the article.

You have no more money! Please come back when you can afford to make a purchase!

You are an unfit mother!

Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy: White People Should Shine Shoes of Black People to Express Shame for Racism

[Impala64ssa]

Since their collapse on conservative principles I have not followed their business, or bought their products.
And it's a damn shame. I liked their iced coffee, and their peach shakes. What did it for me was when the CEO, after having a tense yet respectful dialog with a Black man got on his knees to shine his shoes. It's easy to respect others without resorting to such shameless capitulation and trying to look stylish

“That occasion was a gaffe, but nothing more. They had employees who could choose a charity for a gift, and they gave to that charity as they said they would.”

There is more to it than that. This Wikipedia quote is one thing I remember: “In a November 18, 2019 interview, Chick-fil-A president Tim Tassopoulos said the company would stop donating to The Salvation Army and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes.”

Those two organizations oppose the destruction of the family.

[subterfuge]

Lol. No worries.

—”They basically lost so many of them and were sued by so many people who fell off of them that even with the government subsidies they could not stay in business.”

Forget it Fireman, it’s just another scam in the city.

The connected made money and the chumps/taxpayers got taken.

That was the end of my business / culinary relationship with Chick-fil-A.

Too bad. Their chicken sandwiches are the best in the business. Better, even, than the ones I make, as I don’t deep fry anything.

[Bishop_Malachi]

I haven’t eaten there once since they sold out for “expanding their market”.

Moreover anyone I meet who tries to tell me how much of a “Christian Company” they are gets an immediate dose of info to the contrary.

—”Robots can be very cost effective.”

No disagreement.

But I suspect that even in the best of neighborhoods the TCO cannot be justified.

Guessing that more than a few hi-tech geeks will want one of their own to play with, reprogram to do his bidding/impress the girls...

More than just homo/gay. They (the new execs) poured money into outfits like Covenant House, which then used the funds to hold public shows glorifying trannies and cross-dressers — for kids. Mind, I’ve been to floor shows with cross-dressers and the like and they can be hilarious. And, the performers have a great sense of humor. Covenenant House, however, was grooming. That is what C-F-A is into now, grooming kids.

Thanks for that. It is sick that homosexuals are predators on children, and the democraps and ANYONE supporting homosexuality supports as well.

A rapper wrapping that sucker in a space blanket...

It fell off the screen?????

[ConservativeMind]

That one is more problematic.

Crud.

You are one of the few who feel that way. Every CFA I go to is slammed all the time and they just keep opening more and more.
