After leaving, several of his employees returned to the store saying that the roads were nearly impassable and many other motorists were already stranded on the side of the road, some for seven and eight hours already.This is a prime example why this company should be one of the companies admired for their corperate policies. Not vilified because the owner does not have the "right" beliefs.
"Our store is about a mile and a half from the interstate and it took me two hours to get there," manager Audrey Pitt told Fox News' Todd Starnes. "It was a parking lot as far as I could see."
Some of the stranded drivers just abandoned their cars and ended up at the Chick-fil-A to take shelter.
From there, Meadows and his staff decided to lend a kindness to all those stranded motorists. They jumped to their stations and cooked up some 200 sandwiches, then threw on their cold weather gear, trudged out to the highway, and began to hand out food and water to the stranded motorists.

The store also refused to sell anything that day. Everything they did that day was for public service.
"We're not open for business," Pitt said. "We're just feeding people who are hungry."
Chick-fil-A came under the national spotlight in 2012 as millions of Americans supported the company when same-sex marriage advocates attacked COO Dan Cathy for his publicly-stated Christian views. The controversy helped push the restaurant chain's sales to $4.6 billion in 2012.
