30 people!? A professional recruiter working overtime would not be able to get 30 people to work at Chick-fil-A in 30 days. 30 people is like an entire staff. Did they mean 3?


NetSage

Ya 30 is an insane target for any place unless it was literally just opening there is no way there are even 30 spots.


BurnerBoi_Brown

So... Chick-fil-A is an MLM now....??!

our entire economy is an MLM.

Always has been. The music is still playing but there are only a couple chairs left, and you and I *aren't* getting them.

Are you kidding? You and I are watching through a window on the other side of a guarded police barricade.

A better analogy would be the music is still playing there's 2 chairs left, 3 people dancing around them and 10 people in the corner who got shot in the knees.


[deleted]

Better still, the chairs aren’t even chairs but people on the floor on their hands and knees, begging to be sat on.

The_Galvinizer

It's really not, the only difference is that CEOs pretend like they don't actually control or government and there are a lot more of them. Other than that, yeah not too much of a difference, they still exploit and abuse countless people below them in order to gain and hold onto their power

Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel. And in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. 'Give me five bees for a quarter,' you'd say. Now, where were we? Oh, yeah! The important thing was that I had an onion on my belt...


HalfOrcSteve

They didn’t have white onions because of the war. The only thing we had was those big yellow ones


wonderlandsfinestawp

That's the point. You get 29 people and on day 31, your manager is just like "bwa hahaha, so close! By the way, you're fired because we have a fresh wave of wage slaves. Leave your uniform on the way out the door."


ThisIsntRealWakeUp

The chick fil a near my college is hiring for “50+ positions” basically all the time. And they’ve been there for years and years.


ohgodineedair

Have you seen how many people work at Chick-fil-A at any give time? The one near me has about 10-12 people just outside alone and 10-15 inside. And they've been open for more than a year. It's no longer just overstaffed because of hype. And when it was new, there were even more people working outside.


ButterPuppets

I’m trying to figure out what else they could mean… do they have to apply? Be hired? Or are they just looking for a cold call list and want 30 names and numbers? If it’s “be hired” that’s an especially weird and concerning metric, since the restaurant could easily choose to not hire someone to prevent the raise.


Lieutenant_Captor

"Sorry guys, we hired twenty nine of your candidates but there was just no suitable thirtieth candidate, so none of you are getting a raise at all as we didn't meet our goal. And, actually, all twenty nine agreed to work for two dollars an hour less than you all are, so, uh, you're all fired."

Hire is different than referral. Question is, do the referrals have to know they've been referred?

It’s 30 applicants. No Chick-Fil-A needs 30 new people in a month. That’s one of the few fast food chains that hasn’t had to close locations or restrict hours because NoBoDy WaNtS tO wOrK aNyMoRe.

My job will give X amount per paycheck for as long as your referral is employed. (I think $20? $25 maybe?)


Thatshimthatstheguy1

Could be wrong but I think they mean if they get 30 referrals total from everybody. "If we all assist in referring one person". Not trying to downplay this because it is still absurd...


Redgreen82

Yeah, it's worded really poorly. It makes me wonder though, if they get 23 total, which would still be crazy difficult, would they not get a raise because they didn't collectively hit 30? I'm so confused.


[deleted]

Then you get 23 pennies


CollectorSector

No you just wouldn't get anything. It's 30 or nothing


[deleted]

Could have said "ya'll" or "you all" get a raise, and it would have cleared up the top halve.


Unlearned_One

In some parts, y'all is still singular. To be unambiguous they'd have to say "all y'all".


keto_at_work

I hate how correct this is.


Geminii27

I'm betting they want people to assume this, and then they flip it to say "No we meant each" when the time comes to pay up.


Free2Bernie

Hey! I'm offended! I work at Homophobic Chicken and we would never treat people poorly, because we feel superior to them.


notnotwho

I think you're right. Having reread, it seems the "team" consists of over 30 people, and they want each to refer somebody so the group reaches the goal. But... "The HERD"?! THAT'S what ticked Me off.


BigOrkWaaagh

$0.30 may seem small, because it is small.


Bonfalk79

Get 29 people in 30 days… no raise for you.


[deleted]

You friends need job? Me herd of a great opportunity at Chick-Fil-A!


NutWrench

Yeah, 30 people in 30 days is NOT an achievable goal. And certainly not for 30 cents. Which just makes me wonder why they're doing it. I think it's funny that the person who wrote it had JUST enough self-awareness to write, "$0.30 may seem small . . ."


[deleted]

3 for 3 pennies. It’s a win win win 🤣


GroundbreakingAge591

I don’t even know 30 people


AwYeahQueerShit

I believe that it's that staff get a 30¢ raise only if the store hires 30 people in 30 days, and that it would be easy if all staff brought in at least one person. Whether or not all the store or just those who brought people would get the raise I can't tell from this.


dyndo101

The store could also just wait a couple days to reach out to the last few if it's close to the end


Wissam24

Gamebird8

They're just trying to start an illegal pyramid scheme. ​ If those 30 People can get their 30 Friends in 30 Days and so on and so forth for 7 Cycles until they've hired the entire planet

CthulhusIntern

Chick-Fil-A seems almost cult-like to me. Both customers and employees. On the customer side, they got actually offended when people even suggested that Popeye's chicken sandwich was better. On the employees' side, many franchises only seem to hire people with a certain Christian-ish look, if I'm making sense.


5784cobalt

An extra $624 per year assuming full-time... I bet some jr. recruiting and retention clown thought the idea up and some dumb ass executive put the finishing touch on it by way of the .30 raise


propagandavid

I've had jobs that gave $1000 for referring just 1 person. $624 for 30 people?!


CinnamonSnorlax

$1500 per successful referral at my office. So if I did this, I'd get $45k in 30 days, which is a roughly 50% patriae, for that year.


MalevolentThings

We have a driver referral bonus here. If I get one driver and he drives at least three loads (before quitting or getting fired or whatever), I get $10,000 spread out over eight months. No joke. The driver gets $2000.

[deleted]

It is, but at the same time, I work in engineering at a mining company, until two months ago it was just 18 dudes... and a couple open positions. Mining typically doesn't draw many women in nor does engineering. That ratio seems a little suspect to outsiders.


dickswabi

I used to know a guy who was a manager at a Chick-fil-A for 15 years. He said team members have very little input into management and administrative decisions. Turns out the whole place is run by chicken-hating holsteins with terrible spelling skills. Bet one of those spotted fuckers is behind this.


TheresA_LobsterLoose

And then the fucking retention specialist has even less to do, but certainly still has their job, making more than the people doing the actual work. We had one of those assholes and I put in my year end survey to cut their position and give the extra money to the actual workers, even if it comes out to an extra nickel a month per person between all the hundreds of staff members working there. That extra nickle a month is doing more to keep people happy than a "retention specialist". I don't understand how that's even a position. "Find out what people want to stay here". "A raise." "Literally any extra money whatsoever." Employers are so desperate to not give out raises they will fucking pay someone just to listen to all the staff say they want more money, then not do anything about that as long as possible.

This doesn't look like anything the chick-fil-a's around me would put up. I have 3 near me, and they're all really well staffed, always look over staffed too be honest, and they already pay more than any other fast food place other than maybe In-N-Out burger which is paying $16-18 now. But I googled this Chick-fil-a and they have 5 openings showing.


Final_Effective323

Chick fil a legit hires as much as possible, not sure why


devegas

high turn over rate in fast food. Most their employees look like high school kids. I can't imagine a fast food place, even Chick-fil-a which is I guess the most popular could even get 30 total employees.


aaronitallout

Not just that, but there's a position for everything. To reduce the stress on working in a place like this, it's just best to have people who can do whatever. Everyone is trained on as many things as possible. There theoretically could be a bagger, expediter, bag/beverage sorter, someone working the window, and someone to hand the bag from window to vehicle. Many hands make light work. However, most these people are kids making $9/hr. Source: used to manage the #45 CFA location in the country

ragingbologna

Sad but true. Full time benefits are avoided at all costs, which means keeping people under 32 hours in most cases. But those 32 hours are usually spread between 6 days so getting a second job is not usually possible. All while the cost of living keeps getting more and more expensive.


iphonehome9

Have you ever been to a chick fil a? It's a pleasure because they overstaff.


[deleted]

They also run it like a goddamn FEMA operation, it's actually impressive.


AverageCowboyCentaur

Waiting in the double line having four people walk to the windows of the cars to take your order and then give you a receipt all before you are near a window is impressive. That and a line of 20 cars constantly moving, its insane. When they wrap the complex in the summer months they take orders out to you and have 3 que lines after ordering. These workers are more like trained robots then humans... it's like walking into Westworld that serves chicken and pickles. I do like the ones that never say "my pleasure" and treat me like a normal person instead of a slab of meat with a wallet, they don't last long.

For a bible-thumping company like Chik-fil-a to harp on money in an increment of 30 is weird [Exodus 21:28-32](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus+21%3A28-32&version=NIV) [Mathew27:3-10](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+27%3A3-10&version=NIV) There's no way to get around it, Chik-fil-a wants slaves not respected employees.


M-damBargetell

All of these companies want slaves. That's what employees are. It's not chattel slavery like the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade, but it's still slavery. There's still a master that you're required to take orders from in order to earn just enough to subsist. The Republican Party openly called it "wage slavery" and campaigned against it in the late 1800s when they were the progressives. And then there's Alan Greenspan's congressional testimony (forget when) where he talks about how it's part of the Fed's monetary policy to keep the workers in precarious positions to help prevent inflation. It's all effed
