"Well, guilty as charged. We are very much supportive of the family -- the biblical definition of the family unit. We are a family-owned business, a family-led business, and we are married to our first wives. We give God thanks for that. We intend to stay the course. We know that it might not be popular with everyone, but thank the Lord, we live in a country where we can share our values and operate on biblical principles." - Dan Cathy, CEO of Chick-Fil-A, when asked about the millions his company has donated to "family ministries."

The "biblical definition" of family also included incest and polygamy, so I guess that's cool too.

I work in a an outpatient office which is part of a large medical system, which is private, non-profit.

Their nondiscrimination policies for staff and patients includes seuxal orientation.

However, until now, we had a receptionist who accepted chick-fil-a sandwiches and coupons for free sandwiches from the chick-fil-a representatives who made the rounds of the outpatient services. Well, two weeks ago a new receptionist asked me about the coupon that she got from a rep, saying that she didn't know what to do with it. I grabbed it out of her hand, and tore it in half in short order. I launched into how we don't accept their coupons/sandwiches b/c they are an anti-gay organization and after all we have non discrimination policies at our company for sexual orientation.

I put the poor woman into a tizzy who said that she didn't know that about chick-fil-a and that she doesn't like chicken anyway. She also said she would make sure she didn't accept them.

I was pretty rabid about it. She was fine with it though and actually wasn't a new employee to our health system, just a new employee too our department. I will have to email our old receptionist (who is still a part of our health system, just left our department), to how if she is enjoying the sandwiches guilt free since I am not bitching at her for accepting them.

ETA: I think I am going to contact our HR department what I can do about this, company wide. They recently added gender identity to their non-discrimination company, so perhaps they will listen (or just don't want an irritated employee on this issue).

It might be a good idea to ask that any chic-fil-a representatives be banned from the medical system's properties.
