why i quit at Chick-fil-a after 1 month 

to be clear, i had a good experience at chick-fil-a, the purpose of this video is not to spread negativity surrounding their franchise. thanks!

I applied and got hired for back of house because I didn’t want to talk and deal with people on the drive through headset or outside but after getting cross trained and working more front of house I realized it is much better and the stress is really less because you don’t have to worry to assemble or make food quickly in the back or clean a bunch of equipment and everything you use in the kitchen. Once you get used to taking people’s order and being generally polite it is not really that bad and I’d prefer it to mopping the grease covered floors in e kitchen

I noticed a lot of boh people quit faster than the foh people. I work in the foh and I’ve been working there for four months and I love it

Heard

Been working there for three weeks and I love it. Being 16 making $10 an hour is amazing and because I live in florida there aren’t many taxes so I get around $30-$40 taken out every pay check (every two weeks) and I have to say it is an amazing place to worn that teaches you responsibility, determination, and hard work.

I quit FOH because they wouldn’t respect my school and sports schedule. Plus my location wasn’t very positive, the manager actually screamed Thank God at the top of his lungs when i turned in my two week notice. Don’t know why, i was a hard worker and was the fastest order taker but they didn’t like i had a life outside of work

I’m about a month in and honestly I genuinely love it. It’s honestly a hobby for me now. I love solving problems that customers have.

You know it's something when you get employment some people stay and some people know that though it's a great job you know deep inside there's something better for you and this young man is a perfect example of it.

Lmao that ending was the best thing ever

More people need to watch this 😭

I wish I could quit Chick Fil A. I work BOH prep and am constantly treated like garbage. It’s really hard on my body physically (I have fibromyalgia so I have trouble performing certain physical tasks). I hate it so much but I need the money

I just got a job at chick fil a I start next week. I was assigned front of house whats it like?

This was so well made! I am glad you got a new job and hope it is working out for you

I quit less than a month actually I think it was barely a month… they had been doing mobile expo during the lunch hours (12-2) alone on a summer weekend and do expo for two more hours after mobile.. as you expected I worked four hours as a whole so I was pretty tired so I asked for my break and I got denied… I understand why but an hour later I ask again and then get denied so this is five hours in total and I was kind of confused because there wasn’t much cars… I shrug it off and ask an hour later and same answer then I lose my shit… I didn’t curse out any employee but I did tell my co-worker in front of my shift Manager that I’m gonna put my two weeks and they always do this bullshit where they never have a stall a time for workers… coworker told me to demand my break because I worked very long and I still have a long time ahead and I told them it would be useless because I already asked three times… I guess the manager overheard me and put me on break then I got my food and left and I haven’t looked back since, it’s been three days

My Chick-fil-A doesn’t treat us as good we have to work 30 or more to get a discount or having to work their for 6 months to get a discount they barely pay us and they work us to death in the heat

I also quit after one month of working at the Chick-fil-A by my house because the pay wasn’t that great the environment was friendly but I needed to focus on school and my future career. When I quit the manager that was working at the time asked who I was and then I asked why I wasn’t in uniform and when I told her I quit I asked if she wanted me to bring the uniforms that I had in my truck and her response was “no I just need you to not walk in here like you own the place.” I’m glad I left after having that encounter.

I started full time as foh worker and they started me at $14 an hour. It’s a really nice environment and my location doesn’t have a dine in so it’s nice. The only thing I don’t like about it is the amount of food they waste. It’s absolutely insane

I worked at Chic-fil-a just under 4 months! I enjoyed it as well. I have also made a few videos on it. This video is great man.

It's lucky you didn't got a job at McDonald's, you'll be more stress, and quit in 1 week. Believe me, I seen some employees get really stress over their, and I saw one employee quit even know I was a customer their.

i work in foh but my location foh and boh are both really involved with each other, personally at my location foh wash dishes too which a lot of other locations don’t do. i love working there and foh and boh have great communication together haha

I watched this video before I got hired and now I’m watching it again after I put in my two weeks notice😂. I worked there for 6 months, nice people, but worked to the bone and don’t get paid enough for the effort put in.

I'm on my second week and I've spoken to someone about leaving most of the people I work with are nice but the store is short staffed so I'm barely being trained and when they assign me a job I end up not doin the job because they always have me doing something else and there's no communication on top of that my body is so tired and ankles and feet are so sore from running out mobile orders and I'm stressed I can't go back in one more day because if I do I honestly feel like I'm goin to end up at the doctor or worse the hospital our scheduling manager hasn't givin me a schedule since I started last week so I've been guessing when to come in smh

Bro I came for the job review and stayed for your incredible production value, it’s insane you don’t have more subs keep it up

thought this was gonna start with 3 doors down and i was gonna just walk away lmfao

Just about to quit after working there for a month as well. Unfortunately I didn't have a good experience. one of the "team leaders" was basically bullying me :) for no reason :))))

If only every co-worker were as good as they are at Chick-fil-A

I take doordash orders for THIS EXACT location all the time! I used to work at the Domino's right up the street, and my ex-husband used to manage that Red Robin.

I honestly think each Chick-fil-A is either great to work at or horrible to work at because the one I work at is awesome and I get paid $13 an hour and I started like 3 weeks ago but I hear a lot of people say that they hate working at there Chick-fil-A

I joined Chick-Fil-A for more money vs my previous job. But what I didn’t realize was they give significantly less hours to new-hirers. People who have worked there longer take priority and I GET IT, I really do, but I applied there for more money. More money = more hours. I can’t pay rent off of 20 hour work weeks. Sadly, I think I’ll be applying somewhere else very soon.

I love working( my) at Chick-fil-A. It’s a major step up from Regal and I have amazing mangers and I get free food on my break

I worked both for 2 1/2 years i quite because I was supposed to be promoted and kept getting promises that I’d move up and I did my job but I got screwed every time

The whole time I was on the edge of my seat, and you didn't disappoint. Some shocking revelations in this vid.

Just curious but what was that new job? Are you still at that job now? I'm just cuious.

Icant lie i was expecting some sketchy shit that was gonna make me reconsider my first day 😂😂

Dang, you lasted longer than I did! I lasted 3 weeks haha

Y’all be wearing the new member solid red polos for BOH, at our cfa we wear designated red chef coats and if your a trainer or coach u wear black polo or blue polo or blue chef coat

I worked at a Chick Fil a when I was 16 years old(my first job ever). The location I worked at just didn’t have a good environment. It was total chaos when it would get busy and the pay just wasn’t worth it so that’s why I quit.

Very well put together video dude! Personally I love my job but the only the only thing that sucks about it is that my store got in the top 1% in sales last year so we like super busy and that can stress us out in the BOH but either way it’s a lot of fun!

“Sponsored by chick fil a”

I work in the back of house. I have been there for 2 years. And a team leader for 18 months. I love my job but we are short staffed. We lose a lot of people in the front Bc we’re struggling to keep our pay uo

Yea. I've been there for two weeks now and I'm pretty sure I'm not going to stay there for very long... I've worked several other much tougher jobs so that's not the issue, but the lack of structure and organization is about to drive me straight up the wall. The thing that pushes me over the edge the most is having an owner / operator and executive directors who just don't get it... very clearly have never worked a full week of 8hr days in their life, let alone a month or maybe 3 months on a consistent basis. Silly operator's wife came in the other day (on a Saturday no less) and told us to slow down and stop making mac / cheese until they got the window cleared. Aw hell no. We're not slowing down just because you can't keep up. I almost walked that day. Luckily, this is a part time job for me and I'm only using it to move to another state with and have a job when I get there and then I plan to get a better job but damnit, I don't know if I can put up with it much longer.

Bruh at the cfa I work at, we get a free meal or dessert every shift!!

Thumbnail "not my pleasure" 😆 I remember when i worked there it was like my 3rd week and i still couldn't get used to saying "my pleasure". One time a customer thanked me for service and I replied "you're welcome" And then she asked "aren't you supposed to say my pleasure?" And I replied with a smile "sometimes".

I’m BOH at the moment and I honestly can’t stand it, closing and scrubbing those raw pans at 9:30 at night after I just sweated to keep up making sandwiches all day, on the job hunt as well haha

I’ve been working back of house for six months now and the best thing I can tell you is to drink a lot of energy drinks and never put things off to do later

i got hired a month ago for BOH and obviously everyone has different exprenices I'm basically be harrassed by my manager breaking labor laws and I'm so over it and I haven't received my first check too I already plan on applying for other jobs but my cfa is honestly horrible

Do they allow nail polish

Lmao I work BOH and I work secondary point I’m thinkin ab quittin too

BOH in any business is always busy unless your restaurant is going under.

This was good! 🙌🏻

i just started yesterday & we do not get free meals ! , no earrings , no nails , im not use to saying my pleasure after every sentence! , idk how im feeling about it honestly

Jesus bro I was dying at the end 😂

Idk I personally love yellow, just because you are always moving. Secondary can get so slow lol. Our franchise is $18.5 starting out for boh

I think the pillow he was laying on gives us a hint as to where he got a new job at: Long John Silver's.

I gotta say, I really enjoyed the editing of this video

One thing I only hate about chick fil a is making the fries. It gets sooo hot in the boh and constantly making fries and being hot sucks. I like foh way better. Never complain about foh because boh people have it worst. They over work you in the boh where I’m at and they constantly quit back there.

Ok two things, this video got a lot of views and the dislike ratio is kinda bad 😂😂😂

I requested a day off for a dental appointment (on a Wednesday, of all days) 1 month in advance and it wasn't given. I asked the scheduling manager about it, and they gave some stuttering nonsense reply. Yep, I quit about one week later. CFA is too busy and has too much extra nonsense going on to deal with not having that request granted. Even compared to other fast food jobs, my experience at CFA was pretty terrible. Only worked there for 4 months.

We didn’t get free meals, just half off-

Most people are simply not cut out for fast food or restaurants in general. You have a to be incredibly smart and good at multi tasking to make it in any of these places.

I’ve been working boh at chic fil a for three months now, I’m already feeling burned out. The pay is okay for a fast food place although it’s slightly harder than any other fast food place I’ve worked at, the managers act like it’s an ordinary restaurant and not fast food. I don’t know how much longer I’ll last doing 9 and 12 hour shifts five times a week but I’ll keep going until I can’t. Go to college kids lol.

This man told us that I got a another job 💀

I work in BOH (going on about 4 months) and I generally like it a lot. My pay is pretty good but most of it goes to my bills. Its a lot of stress for just barely being able to get by. My sister worked in the FOH but recently got fired for "not being a good fit". I got a promotion the same day she was fired. I'm entering into the trainer probationary period. I'm not really a people person but I'm patient and helpful so hopefully I can be a good trainer bc I'd hate to ruin anyone else's, especially a new person's working experience. I only interact with FOH but so much but to me they come across as very fake. I can't help but hold a grudge against them bc it feels like they had a part in getting my sister fired through anything they might have said about her (bc those FOH mofos like to run their mouths). Please pray for me

How much is the pay

I've been at CFA for about a year and a half. TEAM LEADER right here. I hate it, they won't promote me

but why did you leave to get a new job, more pay?

I applied at my Chick-fil-A back in March and I got out of training in August. Other than that, working at Chick-fil-A has been pretty good. Specifically my location is an awesome environment and the pay is pretty reasonable. Honestly better than my last job which was working at six flags🙄😂. What is your new job btw?

give chic fil a a sob story and theyll give you a free meal :p

i worked there for maybe 2 weeks. horrible business and awful people all around. fired me for being underage even though they knew i was when i was hired

dang i just applied for the back of the house too 😞

Yo, that was a dope video

And you finished your last day. I can when I was a teen, I typically called in my final day.

I love working at CFA I’m a front of house worker, and it’s a great job I’m 14 and I get paid 16 an hour! It’s great and I recommend if for anyone

I've always liked their chicken salad sandwich they use to have. It sux they don't have it anymore.

Bruh hahahahaha This was good But also I’m butthurt I thought you were gunna say something crazy

um I go to my second interview with them soon, now you got me nervous LMAO

My pleasure!!!

I've been working at mine for around 4 years now, and haven't experienced much of what you're saying. Not saying you're lying, may just depend on the store

So not only is it clickbait it's a pointless video

🔥

Well if it wasn’t your first choice obviously it’s not going to be the obvious best,but I’m glad you enjoyed it and followed the rules. Omg I sound so old XD, I’m in 4th grade.

worked at chick-fil-a?? bro IS chick-fila, bro looks like chicken little lmaooo

They only give you free meals at some locations frfr

Is it weird all the black people only work in the front of the house and the all the hispanics work in the back of my chick fil a?? Like it’s only blacks and hispanics and we have white bosses. Our chick fil a is really popular too

I worked for them for 15 yrs the owner operator I worked for never gave free food.

I am a college student who just got a call saying that I got the job. Yesterday during the interview, I asked the HR guy what’s his advice to someone who’s newly joining. He said that some of the girls on the team don’t get along and that they are catty. I can’t make this shit up. Y’all keep me in your prayers 😂😩

well I mean it's like, Chick-fil-A is really not hard but you have to work so fast and keep up with everything Plus everyone is always nice so they expect that Everytime. I don't mind eating there often but working there would be tough.

Chick - Fil - A!!!! At the end 😆 🤣 😂

Lmao, so many people expecting a hit piece on CFA judging by the dislikes. Well made video, keep it up, brother 👍🏻

I Quit Chick-fil-A because of management I was a hard ass worker and was never promoted for anything and I refused to let managers run all over me I know my worth

Dude you cant beat $16 a hour just making waffle fries. And not to mention you get a free lunch up to $10.50 lol im getting fat working there. I need to bring a lunch for now on but i cant resist them nuggies lol

This man looks like Logic ngl

I moved on to McDowell's.

Bro I have an interview at l 4:15 today I’m so scared

same story i worked for red robin for a month

you were in focus the whole time... ;P

Chick fil a wanted me to convince me getting an education was a waste of time. I was taught to work hard but also to work smart. Several years later own many businesses in the us and internationally making money that i can barely know what do with. Work at these jobs for a certain amount of years to understand business but dont make it the end goal if you know what you want.

Dude i can relate to your vlog 100% this is similar to why i left too but my issue is i left for a job that ended up scammin me and not paying me it was a big mistake but your location seems exactly how my location was.

So where is the part where you explain why you don’t like working there?

Fast food jobs are terrible
