Chick-Fil-A Style!

It’s kind of a funny story, really…as well as a coincidence. I had heard of the Chick-Fil-A quick-service restaurants (as they say), but I had never been to any of the locations, nor had I ever eaten there before. That is, until we moved here to California. They are everywhere down here! There is also an In-N-Out restaurant next to every Chick-Fil-A that many folks seem to be raving fans of as well, but that is beside the point. I mentioned to my husband that I would like to eat at Chick-Fil-A sometime, since I have a love fetish with chicken. Well, the other day while continuing the long-enduring job search, I came across a job listing for a hostess position at one of the local Chick-Fil-A restaurants. I was excited about this, since I love anything involved with customer service. So, I decided to apply for that position, and was so graciously offered a job not only providing Second Mile Service (referring to the part as a hostess), but also the Marketing/Operations side of the business as well. So, all in all, I will play a part in every aspect of that store. The Operator of two different locations,(one of which I will be working), was also kind enough to buy me lunch, while discussing my recent job history, and whatever skills I could bring to the table. That was an added bonus that I can honestly say made my day. I can now say I have officially tasted the most original, delectable chicken sandwich ever made. By that, I mean the one they are famous for. I have worked there a little over a week now, and can honestly say, it’s quite the change from what I’m used to. It’s much different than my previous job, with a lot of running around. Although, I feel that it will do me some good. I know it will be a great strength for me, as it will help me to broaden my horizons, interact socially with others, and best of all, help people. Customer service is the most important element in any business. It is imperative that the customer has the best possible experience. And so it goes, with the mission of Chick-Fil-A, to be the best quick-service restaurant. If you have never experienced the difference, then I suggest you come join us for a tasty treat. You can bring the cows along, but make sure you also bring a sign that says “Eat Mor Chikin” (the cows motto…looks like we need to teach them how to spell). Then, try the most original, delectable chicken sandwich ever made…as it will be our pleasure to serve you!

I didn't even notice that there are no chick-Fil-A's here in Idaho. They were everywhere in Georgia.
