My wife voted this morning. When she was in line, she heard a cheer in the voting room, which she clearly thought was weird. Was someone the 100th voter or something?
Apparently, the poll workers at this location made it a thing to cheer whenever someone was a first-time voter. So thatâs nice.

Also, she ordered Chick-Fil-A breakfast on the app when she left the polls at 10:26am. She got to the restaurant at 10:34am and they said it was too late for breakfast.

Chick-Fil-Aâs apparently famous reputation for customer service is starting to seem a bit sus.

The biscuits become sentient at exactly 10:30am and continuing to serve them would anger baby Jesus.
Thatâs the best explanation I can come up with for why they only sell their best product for a few hours a day.

Ha, I asked my wife if their biscuits just disappear at 10:30. She said the employee actually explained to her that they have to have a hard cutoff, otherwise breakfast and lunch will overlap and itâs too taxing for staff to keep up. When she said she ordered the food before 10:30 (donât worry, she wasnât being a Karen, she was just curious and semi-happily ordered lunch food), the guy made the good point that she could have placed the order last night, arrived after 10:30, and it would have basically been the same thing.
I guess it makes sense. If you give 4 minutes of slack, then you have to give another couple minutes to the next person and next person and next personâŚeasier just to do the hard cutoff.
My dad and I went through the Chick-Fil-A drive through a few years ago and they celebrated us when we got to the window. I made the joke about the 100th voter earlier, but they really were keeping track of customers at this restaurant and were were the 100th customer (since what time, I donât know) and they gave us our food for free. Good thing it was for the entire family.

Yeah, what do they do in that case? Just toss the bag in the trash and give you a refund?
They donât prepare your food until you get there.
So, what is the point of even ordering in advance?
At Chick-Fil-A, itâs still a lot faster (unlike other fast food joints where it often takes LONGER). Their lines are always extremely long. At the one by me, they have a separate âexpressâ lane for online orders, which is almost always empty. You go into that lane, use the mobile app to scan a QR code on a sign (the fastest scan ever - the QR code barely gets into frame and it is done), and then pull forward to window. Have to merge with the non-express lane, so you still have to wait behind a couple cars, but itâs faster than waiting behind eight cars. By the time you get to the window, they usually have the food ready to go.
Sometimes weâll get Chick-Fil-A on the way home from picking my daughter up from practice. We get texts from the rest of the family about what to get them, she orders on my phone while I drive and we just cruise into the express lane.
Thanks. As mentioned earlier, I donât even Chick-Fil-A, so Iâve got no idea how the operation works.
It is genuinely impressive logistically. Obviously the founding family is terrible but theyâre playing on a completely different level than any other fast food operation.

Now why would they want to go and do that when theyâre about to have a great excuse to start filling empty judge seats with âcompromiseâ conservatives?
