Crying into my chicken

By | July 20, 2010

When was the last time a spot selling chicken with pickles (except on Sundays) tore at your heartstrings?

What do you think of the Every Life Has A Story video? Does it touch you? Does it make you think of Chick-fil-A differently?

Did you enjoy it? Or does it make you want to do this?


Did you know I can help you?


Enjoy it? Please share it.

    I'm not exactly sure that I feel any different about Chick-fil-A after watching this, but I'm now depressed. Thanks a lot Dave!

    But it is impressive to me that they would make this video. It's not really promoting their image/products/brand, but more of an overall humanitarian idea. Chick-fil-A has always been a company to stand up for issues and I think this was a clever move to go more into showing their humanity as an organization.

    Thanks for posting this.

    I liked it. Says a lot about Chick-fil-A, without even mentioning chicken.

    Thanks Joey. I love the fact that their service and food (in moderation) are always good.

    Being a dad, I also like how the play areas are fun and kept clean, even with the free hand wipes.

    I respect the fact that they close Sundays. Even though I have found myself at their doors on a Sunday, on my knees, fists shaking to the sky…

    “Noooooo!!!!!!!!!” :)

    That's a great point John. Thanks!

    I've always have respected them as a company, but not really care for their food. The closed on Sunday is just one example that says, fast-food should be a convenience, not routine we count on everyday. Kinda like, they know where they should fit into our lives.

    The video is very moving emotionally. It's a concept that people sometimes have a hard time remembering, other people live here to. They aren't just extras in our lead-role of a life. If we could all just remember this more often, I think you'd see a little more compassion in the world.

    I have a friend who is fighting a very hard battle with cancer. He loves Chick-fil-A and they let him have events to raise cancer awareness there all the time, and are even donating food to a music event he is putting on. That's good charity work on the local level.

    I can't tell you how many times I've wanted a Chik-fil-A sandwich on a Sunday :-) but I'm glad their employees can count on that day off.

    I've always been a fan & thought it was a great video.
