Staffers at a Minnesota hospital got triggered by a free Chick-fil-A sandwich.
St. Mary’s Medical Center treated staff to complimentary chicken sandwiches the other day as a way to thank them for their hard work and dedication. It turns out some of those staff members were also perpetually-offended snowflakes.
“We have received feedback from some colleagues who were concerned or offended by this occurrence, and we value colleagues feeling comfortable expressing their reservations,” Tammy Kritzer, senior vice president for regional operations at Essentia Health wrote in an email to medical staff that was exclusively obtained by The Daily Wire.
Instead of telling the offended staffers to eat their free meal and stuff it, the hospital apologized. And it was a profuse apology. The hospital said they failed to abide by its “values of respect and justice.”
“We would like to thank our colleagues who had the courage to speak up to widen our lens of inclusivity, and we appreciate all colleagues continuing to live our values of respect and justice,” Kritzer wrote.
Daily Wire reports that staffers came down with a raging case of woke indigestion because Chick-fil-A is owned by a Christian family who follows the teachings of the Bible. They also accused the privately-owned company of donating money to “anti-gay” hate groups like the Salvation Army and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes.
“We respect all we are honored to serve and employ, and situations such as these are an important reminder to consider all viewpoints. As we strive to be thoughtful and inclusive as an organization, we will have learnings along the way,” the email read. “In the words of Maya Angelou, when we know better, we do better. Thank you for giving us grace, as we work to be better, together.”
For the record, there’s no evidence that Chick-fil-A has ever discriminated against a member of the LGBTQIA community. It is their pleasure to feed everyone chicken.
