Chick-fil-A, typically popular for its chicken sandwiches, renowned customer service, and known for the fact that it’s closed on Sundays, recently faced unexpected backlash when a TikTok video by user @bearlynotional shed light on a “Chick-fil-A Summer Camp” designed for children aged 5-12. The catch? The campers attending will be learning customer service skills like those used by Chick-fil-A workers.
The video captured attention when @bearlynotional showcased details from the camp’s advertisement. Many people are astonished that such a camp is legal, citing child labor laws. However, some think it’s a fine idea for children eager to work. Find all the details below.
In the viral video, @bearlynotional reads aloud from an advertisement for a camp run by Chick-fil-A. “Want to give your kids something to do this summer? Sign them up for Chick-fil-A summer camp,” he begins. “Yes, this is real.”
He goes on to read from an ad positioned behind him: “Ideal for kids ages 5-12. $35 per child includes activities such as dining room host and customer service skills, taking a guest’s order, bagging a guest order.” Clearly skeptical, the TikToker comments, “Yeah, I’m sure kids wanna jump right at this.”
