How Chick-Fil-A Changed My Life

But it wasn't the chicken.

How Chick-Fil-A Changed My Life
Alyssa Decker

Everyone is always praising Chick-Fil-A for their incredible customer service and their deliciously tasting chicken.

There are memes and videos everywhere about the service of Chick-Fil-A, there are even Instagram pages about the behind the scenes of employees dropping things and falling. It all seems fun and games and no one ever seems upset. And I'm here to tell you that none of it is a mask, every single one of us is in love with our job.

When I first started working at Chick-Fil-A, I was convinced that it just wasn't the job for me. It was difficult for me to warm up to others after working at my first job for almost three years.

The work was a lot harder and the shifts were a lot longer. Building stamina is a hard thing to do, but I'm forever proud of myself for making it to where I am today.

Today I have been with Chick-Fil-A for nearly a year and have created bonds with not only co-workers but guests as well that I will never forget.

Chick-Fil-A has brought me to one of my best friends, my church home, and a person inside me that I never knew was there. I've grown more as a person in this past year than I ever imagined I would.

Every single one of my co-workers at this company is constantly there for each other, making sure they are where they need to be. Group chats full of prayer requests and praying with each other.

Christmas parties full of happiness and praising Jesus and so much more. This might only be my second job, but I've never worked for such an amazing and caring company.

Having a job that I look forward to going to every day is not something I expected to get out of a fast food restaurant. I never expected to grow so close to co-workers as I have here, and I never expected to meet a best friend that would teach me the word of God and help me through every obstacle I encounter, including getting me through my freshman year of college.

Thank you, Chick-Fil-A for your food, your staff, for your dedication to God, and everything you do in between working hard for your employees and your community.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
