Special 8-Year-Old Lands Dream Job at Chick-fil-A
An 8-year-old boy with Down Syndrome landed his dream job at Chick-fil-A. It all started when Owen was required to dress up for Career Day at his school. Being a huge Chickfila fan, Owen decided he wanted to wear a uniform just like a Chickfila team member! His mom Nicole borrowed a Chickfila shirt from a friend and fashioned him a homemade Chickfila name tag. Owen was thrilled to show off his outfit at school for Career Day! Word quickly spread through the community and soon Owen received an invitation to work at the Chickfila in North Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina. Operator John Wrenn and his entire team welcomed Owen with open arms. They even gave him an official name tag. The experience solidified Owen's future career goals of working at Chickfila and the Mt. Pleasant location says they'll have a job for him when he's officially old enough.
