So, I'm hobbling along near the end of my 6 mile constitutional as a drag my nearly 50 year-old carcass past a shiny new Chik-Fil-A due to open near mi casa.
What do my wondering eyes spy? Literally hundreds of high school kiddoes camping all around the parking lot, with tents and stuff, for no apparent reason.
They were all just hanging out, listening to music, practicing dance moves and what not. Some of the kids were even reading actual books.
I enquired of one kid as to what was up. According to him, the chain put out notices at Bixby and Union High Schools that any kid who is present when they open the doors in the morning for the first time gets a card worth 52 free Chik-Fil-A combos. One each week for a year.
I like Chik-Fil-A. I like their corporate culture. I like the fact they give a good value for the money and that they only hire kids who make decent grades in school. And I like the fact they're closed on the Sabbath.
That is all.
