Pres. Trump has nothing to do with decisions made by corporate boards who make idiotic hiring choices. “What do you mean nobody surveyed our customers?!?” said after they observe their stock line heading Southeast in steep fashion.
Cracker Barrel is perennially the #1 restaurant in annual “people’s choice” surveys of RVers. But when I learned in 2014 that they were converting all their outlets into gun-free zones, they never saw another penny from our family.
Cracker Barrel used to be a favorite eating place for me. Love the chicken and dumplings, but now, off my lunch list. Why do businesses that want my money keep doing crap that stop me from spending at their places?
Idiocracy reigns supreme on some corporate boards. A loss of $90M and a 12% drop in share price would give reasonable directors pause. Reasonable people.
Here around Charleston, they haven’t changed the signs or decor, yet. Maybe the Rebel spirit will resist the Woke nonsense. I discovered Cracker Barrel 20 years ago, while stationed at Ft. Leonard Wood. I was very disappointed to find that Vermont was one of the few states that didn’t have them. The Woodchucks would have loved them, and the woke Flatlanders can go to hell!
They named it “Cracker Barrel” because country stores had a barrel that held soda crackers. There was a tendency to gather around the barrel and talk about local events, etc. It was supposed to convey a friendly atmosphere and a place where friend could meet.
When the food took continuing subtle shifts toward downhill I was done with them. Now this woke agenda? The left will destroy themselves to destroy Americana and its symbols of hard work, ingenuity, and self reliance. They despise us all that much! They are mentally twisted evil creatures who worship government and formost power over people. Sick excuses for human beings!
Buccees business model is for you to fill the tank, buy our crap and get the hell out. There is no place to sit down at a Buccees. A sit down restaurant is not on the menu. They are built on the premise of churning your wallet in as little time as possible. We have one 6 miles from my abode. I get ethanol free gas there.
She’s too caught up in the ‘woke’ to notice she’s going broke, but she does know that her bailout clause likely takes precedence over the debtors so she’ll walk away from the wreckage with a profit anyway. The ones that should really pay through the nose are the ones on the board that hired her. If they’re too dumb to see what was going to happen when they brought her in then they should be dismissed without being allowed to cash in any stock options that would make them money, only the ones they’d lose on. The shareholders are the ones that are going to get hurt the most, thankfully I don’t have ‘fast food’ or ‘entertainment’ as holdings in my RRSP.
No this is not the latest woke disaster. That would belong to the MN Vikings owner telling all the fans who don’t like trannies as cheerleaders to stay home. Well, I wish the Viqueens good luck.
Spin
And yes I was a fan of Fran T, Chuck F, Bud G and the Purple People Eaters. I think a few of those guys are amazed at what is happening and the others are just rolling in their graves.
So, you’re in the stands at a Vikings game, taking in some beauties between the mayhem, and you can count’em. Babe, babe, beauty, dude in a skirt with a bulge. Fk me. Page, Marshall, Ellers are now relegated as being too macho but not in my circle. We can eat a lot of shiite, but somehow the Saxon learned to hate. Why? Why fk with icons? Because they can and do and sheeple allow it. No más.
Saw somewhere that Blackrock put big bucks in and supports the woke and the destruction of a cultural icon…and not the first one they’ve had their evil leftist mits in…
Best suggestion I’ve heard so far about their effort to change the logo would be to swap out the wooden barrel for a large plastic drum, and to change from an old guy sitting on a chair to a young blonde girl posed at full speed and turn on her Barrel Racing horse. Giddy Up!!

They removed the “cracker” AND the barrel!
Harumph… If it ain’t WOKE, don’t “fix” it!
Now, GIT off my yard, ya damned kids!!
I thought DJT was going to put a top to all of this.
But like most things in government, it continues with a life of its own, regardless.
I’m wondering which corporate entity will go “woke” next.
Procter & Gamble?
clear ether
eon

GFZ?
I did not know that.
Then again, I haven’t been in one since 2011.
We ate at our local Cracker Barrel a week or so ago. There were no “gun-free” signs there. Of course, that’s in small-town Texas.
How the hell they can call a building in Floriduh to be a gun-free zone, I cannot comprehend.
Lessee: If I go into a Cracker Barrel to find an armed robbery in progress and shoot the robber in the forehead with my always-in-my-pocket PUG…
…Will they ban me? Hm… such a quandary,

It’s gonna be sad, seeing all of those empty buildings along the interstates

Those infected by the Woke Mind Virus cannot in any way, shape, or form be considered “Reasonable people”.
Apparently, they are counting on the increased revenues from the 13% and others that found the name offensive. Woke math doesn’t add up.
The latest ‘Bud Light’ disaster.

The new logo will likely be Timmy Tampon dressed up like the Indian girl being bent over the barrel by Hunter Biden.

IIRC, Waffle House is still taint-free. There are two here in Clarksville, TN . . .
If corporate tried to go ‘woke’ they’d get their taint kicked by the customers and they’d make their own damn pancakes.
Maybe Buc-ees will expand to a restaurant chain to fill the gap.

Between too loud music, way too much salt and head to foot tattoos… I quit ‘eating out’ some long ago. Lucky for me Buddha invented the microwave.
The DEI corporate CEO has turned this all into one big hot wet mess.
She might as well triple down and just rename the restaurant chain “Crack Barrel” and then hire Hunter Biden to do the commercials and advertising.
Sell your stock now if you own any in “Cracker Barrel” … it will be down to penny stock value in no time.

Oh … here’s a fun meme.

Just the latest DEI CEO to prove the adage “Get woke, go broke” and, so far, they all seem immune to learning the lesson.
