Adam Smith, the man who videotaped himself getting free water at a Chick-Fil-A drive-thru just to berate the young woman as been fired.
Smith in his video said he was happy to feel "purposeful" in condemning the Chick-Fil-A employee over CEO Dan Cathy's same-sex-marriage remarks. The video went viral and citizen journalists tracked him down online and grabbed copies of his resume. His employer, Vante, released this statement a bit ago:
Vante of Tucson, AZ Regrets Actions of Former CFO
Employee Has Left the Company TUCSON, AZ--(Marketwire - Aug 2, 2012) - The following is a statement from Vante: Vante regrets the unfortunate events that transpired yesterday in Tucson between our former CFO/Treasurer Adam Smith and an employee at Chick-fil-A. Effective immediately, Mr. Smith is no longer an employee of our company.
The actions of Mr. Smith do not reflect our corporate values in any manner. Vante is an equal opportunity company with a diverse workforce, which holds diverse opinions. We respect the right of our employees and all Americans to hold and express their personal opinions, however, we also expect our company officers to behave in a manner commensurate with their position and in a respectful fashion that conveys these values of civility with others.
We hope that the general population does not hold Mr. Smith's actions against Vante and its employees.

I hope your daughter continues to develop a healthy and realistic world view.

This was never about “chicken”, though.
This was about one man’s stand against perverted ‘marriages’.
this was prolly his first real taste of reality, and it was a sh!t sammich!!!
Were that it was so.
My guess, however, is that he will be welcomed with open arms - as a hero/martyr - at most any lgbt/atheist-supporting org...
I've been watching the entire thing since early this morning.
His employers, location and everything else was posted on the social networks.
No one tried to dig up his info, the idiot was PROUD of what he was doing.
Then it went viral. Something like 2000+ negative comments. He couldn't get it deleted fast enough before someone had saved it.
Too bad, so sad.
He did it to himself.
you are very correct. glad the sissybitch got fired, he deserved that. but you got to give credit to the young lady.
She deserves a raise!
Blessings, bobo
I’ll bet he has an employment contract with this company that nails him for his conduct. He figures he is through.
Suspect he is not only toast with his current employer, but with a great many others.
I did not know he was still exhibiting the same tack.
No doubt here.
I said in another thread that I've seen hated executive terminations cause workers to come out of their offices and cubicles singing 'Ding Dong, The Wicked Witch Is Dead' on several occasions and it's the most rewarding thing you can be witness to in the corporate world.
When rgw aspiring young executive hopefuls at Vande learned about what this asshole did at Chick-Fil-A, I bet that even Thorazine injections couldn't have wiped the smiles off their faces. If they replace his position internally, one of them basically just won a brand new BMW.
I bet they're still laughing and recounting the story to each other, mimicing his voice and actions as he was escorted out the door.
I really strive not to relish in other people’s misfortunes, but I am savoring this moment. When this creep was sh__ canned, justice was served.
Lunch time is company time. He wasn’t an hourly worker.
He has a right to his opinion - but opinions are like a$$h0les - everyone has one. Liberals suffer diarrhea.
Who you gonna call? Smith-busters!
Finally, the table turns.
Great!
This guy was a certified AH.
Typical brainwashed leftist dweeb!
CFA ought to give the young lady at the window a raise for being calm and not spitting in this AH’s face.
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 dont need the hassle.
He’s probably been harassing normal men and women who don’t share his slutty values at work. It’s called sexual harassment or sexual dominance and it is a central aspect of the gay lifestyle. Liberal sex fascists are vindictive and abusive twerps.
The Left can make him their oppressed queer hero and he’ll get plenty of ego stroking for his “courage” in harassing that young woman at the resturant.
I want to give her a tip for putting up with that louse without cussing or poking his eyes out.
This guy is a classic modern liberal. He is a scold to anyone that doesn’t follow his liberal orthodoxy, but goes a step further to memorialize it on the web. Then he can show the world what a ‘good person’ he is. The guy is a narcissist, just like a certain former soda jerk from Hawaii now living in Washington.
Yep.
