Tennessee Chick-Fil-A Encourages Employees To Dream Big— Using Name Tags.

Many young Americans begin their work life behind the counter of a fast food establishment.

These kinds of jobs are a great way to learn what it’s like to work in the service industry, and they can provide a much-needed stepping stone for people who hope to achieve great things during the course of their careers. At one Chick Fil-A franchise in Knoxville, Tennessee, the employers have gone a step further to encourage their workers to aspire to bigger and better jobs.
