Why do people watch reality TV? When you take a step back and look at it, it's actually kind os pointless. I'll admit that even I have been known to occasionally watch MTV on weekends spent bored at my homestead. The truth is, I kind of like them. Not because of the steamy kisses, emotional deaths, or the weird people. I've realized that every great reality TV show has it's fair share of drama, betrayals, and fights, and that's why I think I enjoy watching them. They make me laugh more than anything else can. This week I would like to compare Chic-Fil-A to a reality TV show.
It all started Friday night, as things were winding down. It was around 9:00, and everyone was getting things ready to close. This is always a stressful time, everyone is clamoring around with rags and water is being slung on the floors for cleaning. I think is what finally pushed this girl over the edge. I didn't see how it started, all I know is that one second I was washing dishes, and another second I was back in the break room, watching a fight between two girls develop. It began with yelling, the way only two girls can yell, then a push, then another. By this time we had a crowd of workers huddled around. The other girls kept trying to mediate things, but it wasn't working. The guys just stood around, with dumbfounded looks on their faces. I was near the front, gaining access to most of the action, and I'm not going to lie, it was hilarious. After a while, the manager came rushing back and grabbed one of the girls. She struggled and cussed in his arms as he pulled her away.
The guys and I took the rest of the night to discuss how funny the whole situation was. It was almost exactly like a reality TV show, and I loved it. Don't get me wrong though, I'm a lover, not a fighter (even though I do have large muscles.)
So with that, I say goodnight, and peace. Literally. ;)
