A former CFO is now on food stamps after a video he posted on YouTube two and half ago criticizing Chick-Fil-A went viral and destroyed his career.

There’s layers and layers of being conservative... Chick fil A is conservative...
If you’re thinking in terms of total purity - - every ‘i’ dotted - every ‘t’ crossed - it’s not gonna happen in the real world...
>> two and half ago
I omit words all the time... and my half-baked edits are indefensible... but I’m not selling my commentary.
Food stamps no longer have a stigma to most people. They do not indicate that you are poor or hungry or needy.
They are just an easy way to rip off the taxpayers.
I recall, perhaps incorrectly, the owner establishing an “understanding” with the homosexual agenda that threatened him, his family, and his business.
It happened before the incident.
So the joke is on all of those that thought they were supporting the integrity he really didn’t have? Well, that would make the guy out to be a devious jackass.
I bet Chik Fil A would give him a job.
“ you want fries with that?”
Any company with more than 50 people needs someone focused on money management. At least if they want to survive.

Homosexuals need to acknowledge their sin just as heterosexual adulterers should acknowledge their sin.
Well that was a truly unpleasant detour.
Actions have consequences, and some aren’t reversible. Think carefully before you act, as do-overs are rare in real life...

Sorry, I resent paying for his food. Can't he drive a cab or work in a car wash? For perfect Karma, maybe he can get a job in fast food joint and experience the contempt and abuse of his brother jerks.
I really doubt he was a $200K caliber employee. He probably was full of more BS than anything else. More like he was a salesman or account manager or something, IMO.
Always think twice before speaking, three times before emailing and four times before posting.
