‘TOTALLY HETEROSEXUAL’ ANTI-CHICK-FIL-A TOUGH GUY FIRED FOR BULLYING DRIVE-THRU GIRL
It appears Blaze readers weren’t the only ones who were disgusted by the actions of Adam M. Smith, the grown man who took a video of himself berating a female employee at a Chick-fil-A drive-thru in Tuscon, Ariz.
Vante regrets the unfortunate events that transpired yesterday in Tucson between our former CFO/Treasurer Adam Smith and an employee at Chick-fil-A. Effective immediately, Mr. Smith is no longer an employee of our company.The actions of Mr. Smith do not reflect our corporate values in any manner. Vante is an equal opportunity company with a diverse workforce, which holds diverse opinions. We respect the right of our employees and all Americans to hold and express their personal opinions, however, we also expect our company officers to behave in a manner commensurate with their position and in a respectful fashion that conveys these values of civility with others.We hope that the general population does not hold Mr. Smith’s actions against Vante and its employees.
Smith, as TheBlaze’s Mike Opelka reported this morning, thinks the chicken chain is, like, really hateful. So, naturally, he took a video of himself harassing a Chick-fil-A employee for having the nerve to work for such a “horrible” company.
After pulling up to the window and getting his free water, the tough guy activist proceeded to harangue the remarkably calm young woman. He even asked her how she can “live with herself” knowing that she works for such hateful people.
After enduring her almost backbreaking politeness, Smith felt it was necessary to end with these words: “I’m a nice guy, by the way… totally heterosexual. Not a gay in me, I just can’t stand the hate.”
Huh. Well, alright then:
Smith must have thought he scored a major victory because he put the video on Youtube. However, contrary to whatever was going through his mind, it turns out that lot of people don’t think bullying a woman who’s just trying to make a living is manly or cool. He tried to pull the video but — surprise! — once you put that stuff online, it’s there forever.
All is not lost for Smith, however. He still has his gig as an Adjunct Lecturer at Eller College in Arizona. As to how long that will last, time will tell.
