And people wonder why I’m excited for the Chick-fil-A opening this summer in my city.
It will be interesting to see if they get a flood of homeless now.
Nice story.
Hey, I see you’re in Washington. Can you tell me where the new outlet will be opening? Have heard nothing about new locations on my side of the state :(.
Classy people. We have a cruise nite every Tues at the Chick-Fil-A in Brooksville, FL, the people that work there are very polite and seem to truly enjoy working there.
Looks like Bellevue opens in March. Not enough to get me to cross over into liberal territory, though.
Classy business. Great food.
Had lunch there today, long line as usual.
There used to be one on campus at WWU in Bellingham, WA. It was awesome. Which of course meant that liberals hated it. And they threatened to boycott and make a fuss.
Needless to say Chick-fil-A is no longer there.
Icy interstates and highways soon became clogged with cars and trucks. Thousands of motorists soon found themselves stranded with nowhere to go including many stuck on Highway 280
Some of the drivers had been stuck in their cars for nearly seven hours without any food or water. So the staff of the Chick-fil-A decided to lend a helping hand.
We cooked several hundred sandwiches and stood out on both sides of 280 and handed out the sandwiches to anyone we could get to as long as we had food to give out.
The staffers braved the falling snow and ice, slipping and sliding, as they offered hot juicy chicken breasts tucked between two buttered buns. And Chick-fil-A refused to take a single penny for their sandwiches.
I support Chick fil-A and admire this manager, but I too thought about that. I didn’t want to be a wet blanket, but its’ human nature. If the other homeless see a place opening their doors and heating up their kitchens for the free benefit of a homeless man, then of course, they will be checking out the situation.
No one wants a homeless guy off the street making their food.
“If the other homeless see a place opening their doors and heating up their kitchens for the free benefit of a homeless man, then of course, they will be checking out the situation.”
I don’t think that’s a problem... Nobody’s going to be hurt doing the work prescribed by God. They will be rewarded a hundredfold.
Raytheon ran Chick-fil-A out of their facilities about two years ago.
I broke down and tried Chick-Fil A a couple weeks ago.
Honestly their chicken sandwich is nothing special. The bun is like a McDonalds crappy bun. I don’t know why people go crazy about the food.
I do appreciate their Christian bent, but I wasn’t impressed with the sandwich.
It was the same franchise, during the “Snowzilla” event.
What part of Florida is Brooksville in.
I see nothing "Christian" about what Meadows did. Nothing.
The homeless man wanted to work for his meal, he wasn't asking for a handout. The man did not receive what he asked for.
Was that chicken sandwich worth an hour's pay? nope.
The homeless man is the one who did the Christian thing. Meadows acted like the government giving a handout.
Would it make you feel better if he made the young man break rocks for an hour?
And why is the owner obligated to provide everyone who needs a job a job?
You’re simple wrong in your accusation the owner was not being charitable — and charitable on his own nickel nonetheless — not the taxpayers’ nickel as you implied.
They are opening one just a few miles down the road from me next month.
