Fast Food Joint A Natural Antidepressant

The president of Chick-fil-A recently visited the area, brightening all with his vision of chicken, waffle fries and Jesus. (All Chick-fil-A locations are closed on Sundays to honor Our Lord. Also, the dude who founded the place didn’t like working Sundays. But that probably had something to do with God, too.)

COO and prez Dan Cathy visited the Springfield Park store, paying for his meal. “I want to know what it feels like to pay full price for the food,” Cathy said. He did not say the experience was “exhilarating,” but I think we can assume that’s how it went.

And, just why does Chick-fil-A have such a successful business model? Why, it’s… well, here:

“We just elevate the chicken sandwich by giving it good customer service,” Cathy said, adding that any particular environment has a direct influence on product.

“The term restaurant means a place of refreshment, an oasis from the tough world out there,” he said, adding that customers are invited to visit the Chick-fil-As for a relaxing atmosphere. “It actually affects the taste of food.”

An oasis of fast food among… all the other fast food places in the mall. But, hey, it’s the most relaxing part of the food court.
