Should the employees of Chick-Fil-A be ashamed of themselves for working for a bigoted company?

34. Knowing about their homophobia, I would refuse to work there.

I've actually done something like that before - actually, almost exactly like that:

During college I worked part-time. One summer, I intended to spend it working part-time and enjoying the town, which was half-empty, as it was mostly a college town. One day, I applied at a Chinese hash house, and got the job.

On my first day during my first two hours, the manager on shift went on about faggot this and faggot that (just speaking generally, I hadn't had time to give them any personal info, let alone talking about begin gay, it was just how he talked). I was deeply offended, and asked to take my lunch early - took my fried rice, finished it off, removed my uniform and snuck out the back door, never to return. Felt so good.

On edit, I realize many of them need to feed kids and such.

Now, I am not a lawyer, but I would suggest that if banter on the floor turns political, there is a possibility of harassment lawsuits, particularly if - at the first encounter with same - the employee has voiced objection to political talk, or speech they find offensive, such as "faggot".
