I agree, even when the line is wrapped around the building the wait rarely is ever that long.
And I know this is just pissing into the wind in this community, but CFA is amazing in my community. Yes, Popeyes sandwich is better, but the service level is next level at CFA. They pay well, treat their employees great (see photo), and they give back to the community. When the local owners were renovating their stores they went out seeking volunteer opportunities for their employees, them paid their employees for the time they spent volunteering. Plus the employees are just nice... compare that to the Popeyes employees who obviously hate being at work, are understaffed, and underpaid.
Yes, CFA has issues at the corporate level but on the local level it is an amazing employer and member of the community.
We have a local gang organization that does charity drives. Even if some of those individuals promoting a good public image weren't involved, the organization goes as far as trafficking young children. Grew up around it unfortunately. Yet ironically, I have people vehemently defend them as arbiters of good like they're vigilantes or something because they haven't seen what radical effects these people are pushing into our world.
That's much further on the scale of course, but we can ask the same question still: Is the good that this one meso-group supplies negate the evil that they're supporting?
Could all of these wonderful people be working at another facility, providing you with the same quality of service minus the bad moral after-taste? Yes, but only if they're obligated to work somewhere else. Otherwise, why change when they're getting so much support from the people they serve?
