| - Excuse me, I didn't order this "doggie bag."
I'd always been a fan of Chick-Fil-A. That is, until my recent visit. I placed a drive thru order and waited my turn in line behind another vehicle ahead of me. That vehicle had it's windows rolled down and two (cute!) dogs were in the back seat with their snouts peering out the window. It seems the drive thru attendant couldn't resist their charms, reached out and allowed at least one of the dogs to lick the palm of her hand, undoubtedly smearing saliva. When my turn at the window arrived, I was certain the drive thru attendant would first wash her hands before serving me, but that never occurred.
Please don't misunderstand. I, myself, am a pet owner and love my furry friend. In my own home I am always sure to wash my hands before touching food, utensils, kitchen surfaces, etc. I was dumbfounded when I was expected to pay someone else for something I would not allow myself to do.
In the interest of full disclosure, the drive thru attendant did not prepare my food, but she did handle the packaging it came in which, in turn, I also needed to handle to have access to the food. All I could think about was cross contamination. Had I not been in a hurry, I would have brought this to the manager's attention instead of throwing away food which may have been very good under other circumstances.
