Chick-Fil-A responded to our request for comment, saying:

“The operator reached out to (Autumn) Williams today and had a good conversation.

In further detail, the operator explained that the policy was misinterpreted and said Williams was not terminated and she’s more than welcome to come back and work at the restaurant.”

Haha. Someone got their ass reamed by corporate HR & Legal.

I hope she told them that she requires that supervisor be moved to a different location.

She says in the article she's finding other employment and doesn't want to work there any more.
