Burger King Appreciation Post

So I've been living in the same town for about 10 years. I took a break for work and then came back.

Most of the current staff has been there for about 8 years and I think the GM has been there for nearly 15. This particular location is owned by Carrolls.

The whole time I've lived here I've been going to this Burger King. The GM, AM, and SM, and some other higher ups have all known me since before my transition.

Recently, I've been going a lot (recently meaning last 3 years and a lot being 2-3 maybe 4 times a week). Most of the staff have made the effort to learn my new name, they are all super supportive and use my preferred pronouns, and honestly, if I needed a safe space to go during the day, I would go straight to this location.

A while ago, when a coupon was having trouble in the app, they took my order on the house. Today, I ordered, and then realized I had a $15 coupon from a support issue (extra egg on crossainwich was $10 by mistake per???). So I ordered again. They gave me a joking hard time and chatted a bit even though it was busy and gave me a free small fry.

I feel welcomed, appreciated, and at home.

This is what all BK restraunts should be, and this is one (of many) reasons why I will always prefer BK over McD and Wendy's.
