College Observation

Have you ever met someone who hates Chick-Fil-A? Probably not, right? Chick-Fil-A’s success in this area is all thanks to it’s founder, Truett Cathy. In his autobiography, Eat Mor Chikin® Inspire More People, Cathy explains how he came from humble beginnings, but rose up to create millions and billions of dollars in the fast food industry. His business ideas are all fairly simple, but revolutionary. Values he has put in place have built the company up to be extraordinary. This book was entertaining: he described the precedent that CFA would only hire people who deserved the job and could do it well, how he ensured that the company was privately owned so the owners would care about it as much as he did, and how he ensured his company would give back to the community and to God the blessings they have received. I think this is a great book for anyone, especially for someone who adores Chick-Fil-A like me!

Looking at Chick-fil-A consumers specifically, 72 percent of consumers who visited Chick-fil-A most often come from south part of the United States. Of Chick-fil-A consumer, 73.5 percent are white and 69 percent have received at least some level of college education. Those between the ages of 18-49 are Chick-fil-A top consumers, with 30-34 year olds being the age range with the most consumption at 11.2 percent. This is largely due to the fact that this is the age range where people become parents and have children living in their household. Besides, quick food service like Chick-fil-A accommodate the need of people from age of 30-34, who are mostly employed and have a quick pace

For this paper I choose a well know fast food restaurant, which is “Chick-fil-A”. Chick-fil-A is a restaurant that they focus on all ages, and any kind of people. On March 25, I personally went to the “Chick- Fil- A” that located beside the Pasadena City College and observe. Chick- Fil- A is a company that tries to focus on every age as possible as they can, even though the price that they had marked is high than the McDonald, Jack in the box, etc... but they are giving costumer the better quality of foods. However when I site down and observe I found out there are few families with kids, old people, students, and businessman, etc…. Moreover, Chick- Fil- A had chosen a great location to locate their restaurant, beside the restaurant, which

For many previous years, Anaheim High school has had a couple lunch system changes finally settling on two lunches, both being half an hour long. With both lunches only being half an hour long, for certain, more than one thousand students being in each, imagine the lunch lines! Making line to get your lunch takes already about fifteen minutes, half of a person’s time already, which leaves little time for a student to enjoy their so called meal and free time with friends.Based on other student’s experiences dealing with school lunch, one can rightfully assume that high schoolers would much rather hold in their hunger until after school rather than have the food being provided. There is not a single day that goes by in which a high schooler does not complain about the “worst than jail” food being served to them. This proposal will go into detail about why having an hour off-campus lunch can increase healthier eating habits between the undergraduates of Anahiem High School. In this layout, you will read about the issue of why we believe off- campus lunch would be a healthier choice for Anaheim High school students, you will also encounter our plan of how we intend to carry out this idea, what exactly needs to be done, with the help of who, and so on.

S. Truett Cathy founded Chick-fil-A in 1967. Cathy is the founder, chairman, and CEO of Chick-fil-A. The first Chick-fil-A restaurant was opened in Atlanta’s Greenbriar Shopping Center. In 2005, Chick-fil-A had sales of $1.975 billion, which landed them as being the “second-largest quick-service chicken restaurant chain in the United States” (Perreault, Cannon, & McCarthy, 2012, p. 529). Throughout 37 states and Washington, D.C., there are 1,250+ Chick-fil-A restaurants.

An email invitation with survey link was sent to panel members, where they were randomly assigned to view one of five menu boards, which differed in types of labeling; and instructed to make a meal selection as if they were at fast food restaurant chain. Also, respondents had to fill out a questionnaire at the

Valerie I agree that it is wise to have faith in God even from a business standpoint. It is often hard in today’s society though to put God first in the decision making. I remember back in 2012 when Chick-fil-A was going through a hard time because one of the chief operating officers (Dan Cathy) made a remark about opposing same-sex marriage. He has his right to state an opinion but having friends that are lesbian and gay I had to side with my friends. The remarks seemed to come from a place of hate and he offended so many people by his statement. I do believe that Christians should not hide their beliefs but sometimes in a business setting one person who states an opinion could wreck the business and ultimately leave a Christian owned company

At Chick-fil-a we observed a total of 28 people at 10 different tables, and of those 10 tables, 7 tables had at least 1 person on their phone and 3 tables had no one on their phone. Of the 7 tables with people on their phone 10 out of 10 of the people at the tables were on their phones, only two of them were clearly older than 50. The 3 tables where people didn’t use their phone 8 out of the 12 people were clearly older than 50 and not on their phones. At chipotle 5 tables had at least one person on their phone and 5 tables had no one on their phone. We observed 32 people total and only 10 people were on their phones. None of those ten people were clearly older than 50, and 15 of the people without phones were clearly older than

Chick-Fil-A is an American, chicken- based fast food restaurant founded by S. Truett Cathy in 1946 Hapeville, GA. It’s considered to be one of the largest restaurant chains in the United States with over 2,000 locations in forty-three states, along with Washington, DC. Chick-Fil-A’s first restaurant ever was opened in Greenbriar Mall in Atlanta. Later in 1986, they had their own place, also in Atlanta, on North Druid Hills Road. Their logo is “Chick-Fil-A” written in bold, red, cursive letters. They incorporate a chicken into the C, which is pretty ironic because they also have a cow campaign. It shows three cows each holding a cardboard around their necks that altogether reads “EAT MOR CHIKIN.” It may be the company’s way of trying to be

Former owner Samuel Truett Cathy was well known for his Christian values and wanted to incorporate them in his restaurant. Unlike many fast-food restaurant, all Chick-fil-A locations are closed on Sundays, as well as Christmas and Thanksgiving due to his religious beliefs. In fact, his morals can be exemplified in the purpose statement for Chick-fil-A. Also, Cathy believed that Sundays are supposed to be spent in worship and time with an individual’s beloved family. According to Green, (2014), the headquarters of Chick-fil-la displays several Bible quotes and crosses and even a four feet tall statue that depicts Jesus washing the feet of a disciple, which signifies as a symbol of servant leadership.

Chick-fil-A was the last fast food restaurant I decided to grab food from. I usually do not eat at fast food places, but I was starving, it was super late, and I just got out of work. I knew that a fast food place would be the best option for me because of the time and wanting something quick. Situational influence definitely had a lot to do with me deciding to eat at a fast food place. Time being a big factor because not that many places other than fast food restaurants are open late hours. I chose to eat at Chick-fil-A opposed to a place like Taco Bell is because I believe Chick-fil-A is more on the healthier side. Our society today is all about eating healthy, so I wanted to make the best decision in the situation I was in. Our culture today definitely influenced in going with chick-fil-A rather than Taco Bell or McDonald’s.

I really enjoyed your discussion board. I knew about Chick-fil-A being a religious company but did not know about any of the others you mentioned. I really think it is important to find a job that can provide understanding about religion. Having worked at Cracker Barrel for 5 years and being unable to have Sunday mornings off work I really can’t wait to work for a company one day that honors Sunday mornings off. I feel like we give so much of our lives to our jobs but we don’t really think about who we might be working for. What is our job contributing to the community that we might not agree with? I know for a fact my job at a cable company does not go along with my personal values. We have adult movies for rent and I often get uncomfortable

We already brought you part one of this mouth watering list of facts about Chick-fil-A. There are still a few more secrets to reveal though, so here is part two.

I recently have been consuming the delicious products of the Chick-Fil-A in Sunset Hills Plaza.

The availability of fast food outlets has led to reduced fast food prices as individuals end up spending a small amount of money to get different types of fast food products. This is different from the traditional food preparation process, which take a lot of time, energy and resources to prepare a meal. Similarly, consumers, particularly students and working individuals do not have enough time to prepare food at home, which explains why they choose to go for fast food (Brindal 7). Despite these attractive characteristics, rapid availability of fast food is increasingly being linked to a major decline in healthy food choices. With millions of low-income populations relying on many several types of fast foods that are readily available in the neighborhoods, people have increasingly lacked
