Don’t Outsource Your Signs
Aug/092

I get a great deal of enjoyment out of goofy signs. Remember the “Disabled Viewing Area” sign? As much as I travel, I run into some pretty funny ones. Here’s one I ran into recently:
Chik-fil-a proves it’s best not to outsource your signage
Main Disconect?
I go to this Chik-fil-a on North Highway 17 in Mount Pleasant, SC way too often. As I was sitting there the other night, just before you come to the window, I saw the sign to the right. Now, I think Chik-fil-a is the best fast food restaurant around. The food is great, the service is impeccable, and it’s way better than the alternatives.
This Chik-fil-a in particular gets tons of traffic because it is so new and it’s placed in a nice section of town (where people may look down their noses at McDonalds).
So, approximately a zillion people have seen this sign. My questions are:
- Has the manager?
- Where is the District Manager?
- The owner?
- Has anyone other than me?
- Can someone buy me a better camera?
