FC/OT: Rider University Dean of Business Administration resigns....over Chick-fil-A...

[Nittany Ziggy]

The "+" is designated to old people like me....at an age that if we didn't try it in the past, we'll give it a go now.

Thanks Step! I hope you're out there "experimenting" right now. Only you could bring such clarity to the matter.

None. But, what the owners say carry weight. They run their business based on their personal points of view, and there is nothing wrong with that. I think their 'pro-traditional family values' stance is often misinterpreted as 'anti-LGBTQ'; I think you'll find several examples of times when the company has 'done the right thing' in the face of adversity. .

I agree with the above. I think it is a shame that any individual that holds the belief that marriage is between a couple and their church is immediately labelled as anti-LGBTQ+; even if they hold the belief that domestic partners should receive the same legal rights as married spouses.

We quickly went from awesome chicken sammiches to burn the chicken shops down to the ground. I love how we work.

You are ignorant of how college & university foodservice works.

Apparently the folks at Penn State are too. First, they took the Chicken Cosmo off the menu. Then, they failed to bring it back.

If someone at Penn State were smart ( ), they would sell Chicken Cosmos on home football weekends. Slobs like me, and people who look like me, would buy them by the case.

If you are CFA, the move is to put a franchise directly across the street from the campus.

I really do not understand entities that continue to pander to the vocal minority.

A shame this person felt compelled to leave their position over a dispute like this.

That “move” would a stroke of typical corporate boardroom chest-thumping given that the area around that campus is zoned residential - would never host any business such as a quick-serve restaurant w/drive through service....

Sounds like typical boardroom fire & brimstone - a smirk-inducing tough-guy stance that ends with little more than the squeak of a fart once reality rudely enlightens them ...

Not to mention 98% of CFA’s are independently-owned and operated, so the company would not be in a position to do that w/o a franchisee anyway

This acronym continues to grow. What does the "+" designate? I just cannot fuc#ing keep up.

As I understand it from a training I went to, the + is for people who’s sexuality is not a constant. I believe pansexual is the term used.

FYI, CFA's press release:

“Chick-fil-A is a restaurant company focused on food, service and hospitality, and our restaurants and licensed locations on college campuses welcome everyone.

“We have no policy of discrimination against any group, and we do not have a political or social agenda. More than 145,000 people from different backgrounds and beliefs represent the Chick-fil-A brand.”
​

They also released a new fish sandwich in recognition of Lent.

At my age...for future reference, please refer to me as "Obliviax+". Thank you.

The other term I learned from the training was polygender meaning that people do not identify as any particular gender.

Is that kinda like some insects that can impregnate themselves?

Panbliviax?

With the + of course.

They should be the only protected class because they're the only class that matters.

Jeff Skilling agrees.

The other term I learned from the training was polygender meaning that people do not identify as any particular gender.

Things have changed since my last sensitivity training. I recall learning the term 'elevator eyes'. That was looking someone of the opposite sex up and down. I guess the "opposite sex" no longer exists.

So, if a polygender person is attracted to a white person, the line "Poly wants a cracker" takes on an entirely different meaning.
