font-size: 12pt;\">No matter what CFA does in the media, its political or religious stance or whatnot, it somehow manages to rise above all other non-food related topics, because simply, their food puts them on a class higher than that of every other fast food chain in the country.\u00a0 Frankly, I challenge all people to find a CFA that doesn\u2019t have a license to print money or really be able to recall at any point where a CFA closes down due to poor business and not renovation because their demand warrants it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Go at the wrong time of day, and you will undoubtedly get stuck in some sort of line, be it inside the restaurant, or getting into a drive-thru line that literally wraps twice around the building.\u00a0 In spite of the insane demand for CFA on a daily basis, I do give a lot of credit to the company for often times being proactive and always thinking on how to speed things up and keep customers happier, regardless of the fact that they really don\u2019t have to, because people will go there for their food, regardless of if the perky teenagers that work the restaurants say \u201cmy pleasure\u201d or not.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">But just about every CFA in Atlanta has gone down at various points due to the need to renovate, or to add a second drive-thru lane, because they can all justify the needs for them.\u00a0 They\u2019ll stick employees outside with tablets and card readers in order to help expedite the service.\u00a0 They\u2019ll stash them in little pop-up tends before the pick-up windows in order to receive cash or give receipts just 20 seconds quicker than it would be at any other restaurant\u2019s drive-thrus.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Most importantly though, they have pretty much the best app in the fast food industry, that\u2019s easy to use, easy to register, and extremely efficient when it comes to saving time and effort.\u00a0 Punch in your order and send it on, and then there\u2019s zero need to spend time in line deciding on what to order, or to even pay for it, regardless of how many options the physical lines give you in order to save time.\u00a0 The app saves even more time, and even more effort, and it basically makes it a no-brainer when it comes to deciding on which fast food joint to hit up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Unfortunately, regardless of the Jesus-ness of the CFA app, inevitably my wife and I are still the only people on the planet who use it, or so it most definitely seems.\u00a0 No matter how often or not we go to CFA, I have still yet to witness anyone other than us who have actually used the app in person.\u00a0 Even at the last Dragon*Con I went to, I was amazed at all the people who were willing to stand in line at the Peachtree Center CFA, while I literally walked up and picked up my order in five minutes; and these people are all a bunch of fucking nerds and\/or techies, who you\u2019d think would be on top of stuff like apps that would help them stuff their faces sooner rather than later.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Frankly, I\u2019m astounded that more people haven\u2019t caught onto just how Jesus-y the CFA app is.\u00a0 In the very rare instances where I don\u2019t have much of a queue in front of me at the drive-thru, I can get in and out of CFA in less than two minutes.\u00a0 I roll up, tell them my mobile order name, and then there\u2019s practically no wait while my order is filled at the window.\u00a0 Instead, most of the time, I\u2019m the one genius in a line full of morons who don\u2019t even have a clue to what they want until they\u2019ve scoured the entire physical menu, only when they get to the speaker box, and haven\u2019t been thinking about what they wanted in the other 10 minutes they\u2019ve been waiting in line.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">And they always begin their order with \u201c<em>I need<\/em>;\u201d bitch, nobody <em>needs<\/em> CFA, but it\u2019s a damn fine luxury to indulge in every now and then.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">And then they\u2019re usually the people who have to dig through wallets or fish for loose change, because they\u2019re not ready to pay when they get to the window.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">The bottom line is, CFA has done everything possible to make ordering and retrieving food as easy as possible.\u00a0 An easy and intuitive app, drive thru rules that enable them, and an employee process that rewards those who capitalize on all these tools.\u00a0 Unfortunately, 98% of the population doesn\u2019t take advantage of such easy and time and effort saving methods, and the only ones that are truly punished are the ones who really want to, and we end up in lines wrapped entirely around the building because of their obtuse stupidity.\u00a0 And this is coming from a guy who didn\u2019t sign up for Facebook until like 8 years after it was open to the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">I don\u2019t like to often think that I\u2019m really above anything, but . . . those who do not use the CFA app to get CFA, are legitimately beneath me.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don\u2019t know how much clearer I can be than that headline.\u00a0 People who do not utilize the Chick Fil-A app are a class of people that are secondary or subordinate to those who do.\u00a0 Fact.\u00a0 Mic drop.\u00a0 Walk off stage.
