What Is a Chick-Fil-A Hack?
According to me and pretty much every lover of delicious chicken, Chick-Fil-A hacks are one of the highest forms of life hacks out there. Why? Because if there is a way to up the ante with an already magnificent and fast lunch, I’m in. And you should be, too. Everything from making sure you dress up like a cow on the right day to secret menu items, Chick-Fil-A hacks are my absolute pleasure.
What Happens if You Say “My Pleasure” at Chick-Fil-A?
Speaking of which, do you know why Chick-Fil-A employees say “My pleasure,” in response to customers thanking them? Chicken legend has it that the restaurant’s founder, Truett Cathy, once heard a Ritz Carlton employee say it and really felt like it set the Ritz apart from other hotel chains. So, he adopted it because it felt like a great way to show true appreciation to customers and create a more luxurious culture at his family-friendly fast food restaurants.
So what happens if you say “my pleasure” first at Chick-Fil-A? Well, according to one Quora responder we may end up facing a gash in the fabric of the space + time continuum. Or, more likely, the customer and employee would exchange a smile and move on. According to many Chick-Fil-A employees, they’re not actually trained to use the words “my pleasure,” but they are encouraged to use “elevated language” in order to really extend that additional level of service to customers.
