Chick-fil-A cashier, deaf customer share special moment

Cynthia Walker isn't used to doing things on her own. But when she walked into a North Carolina Chick-fil-A and ordered herself a meal by signing her order, it became the first time she was able to do it on her own without feeling uncomfortable.

On Wednesday at the Fayetteville, North Carolina Chick-Fil-A, high school senior Taylor Anez was working at the cash register when Cynthia and her mother arrived. Cynthia is deaf and suffers from other medical conditions that make it difficult for her to do many things on her own. She was able to place her order with Taylor, who knows sign language.
It wasn't the first time Taylor has signed with customers. A post on the local Chick-fil-A's Facebook page from a happy customer sings Taylor's praises for what he witnessed at the restaurant.

    I took ASL in high school and was a server at Dennys during that time. Once an older man came in and he was really nervous. He sat in my section and I got everything together to bring to his table. When I walked over he had gotten out a piece of paper and a pen and wrote “I am deaf, but i need a second to look at the menu.” I nodded and signed to him what he would like to drink. I swear his eyes lit up like a 5 year old boy on Christmas Day. I took his order and everything and let him eat when I brought the food. After I did all my check ins w him and he finished. He left me a $20 on the table and a note “My wife has been in the hospital for the last 4 months fighting cancer and we would always come here when we were having a bad day. This is my first time here without her and I was scared about making your job harder, but you made this the most comfortable meal without my wife. Thank you for being so patient and compassionate.” I cried in the walk in for 25 minutes, and I still have the note. That was 6 years ago.

    Taylor, I'm 52 and I grew up with a deaf uncle and cousin. My uncle lived next door with my Grandparents and as kids we learned the alphabet so we basically just spelled everything in letters and had our own body language. Over the years I picked up a few signs here and there but mostly I just spelled everything because that is what we were taught. My 80 yo uncle was on his way to deaf church and was killed in a head-on collision in 2004. I never got to fully learn ASL and when I think back I felt so ashamed and horrible that I had the best teacher anyone could have asked for and I never learned. After seeing your video, it made me want to learn again and at least still communicate with my cousin and any other deaf community members. I've been doing well and it was amazing how many signs I remembered seeing during their chats and now what they mean. Thank you for the gift you gave this young lady and I just wanted you to know that your positive interaction made more impact than just that day.

    My mom was a sign language interpreter. I worked in fast food at a mall and there was a deaf customer who would come in and ask for a paper and pen to write their order down. So I had my mom teach me enough to be able to take orders. The customer was so happy she started telling her friends. Before long I had close to a dozen regular customers who would come so they could take their order in sign language. It doesn’t take much to do something special and make an impact in your community.

A deaf trio used to come in all the time, and one would fill out the order pad, then work with me to get everything straight, i.e., what was wanted/not wanted on their sandwich, how much ice in their drinks, and so on.

    I had a deaf friend in school so I learned to sign. I took ASL classes as a foreign language in high school. Easy A for me and she was the teachers aid. She loved having a classroom full of kids she could talk to. Later when I was in college I worked at Applebee's and had a deaf couple come in. Nobody wanted to wait on them which pissed me off so I did. When I started signing to them it blew my coworkers away and made the couple so happy. I soon had a whole bunch of deaf customers. :) good tippers too.

    Our daughter is fully hearing but is fluent in sign language. She once had a part time job at a popular furniture store and approached a couple of customers who were signing to each other after communicating with them in sign language they bought furniture. Later lots of deaf people started showing up at the store during her working hours so they could communicate with her. Stores should hire more people who can sign and hear although there may not be that many. Our daughter majored in Deaf Studies and some of her friends are deaf.

    Because it's not in high demand in reality. May not like it but most businesses that deal with direct to face customers don't really all that much deal with deaf customers. Most people aren't deaf and since most customers businesses deal with happen to not be deaf. The demand isn't high to learn sign language. A small percentage of people are deaf and most of those people don't deal with customer service personally. It's a fact.

There is not a fast food business in the USA that wants to pay to have their employees learn any second language just to have them quit and move on in a few months to a year. They want to pay them as little as they possibly can so they aren't out money when they do eventually quit. Turn over rates in that line of work are incredibly high so logistically it's not feasible.

    The gospel (good news) for lost souls: Jesus Christ is the only way to Heaven, there is no other way! You only have to believe in what Jesus Christ did for you on the cross at Calvary, He died for the sins of the whole world and that's including you, so why not live for Him? It's all about Jesus Christ's precious blood - Romans 3:25 - Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in His blood, to declare His righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; 1 Corinthians 15:1-4, saves lost souls when you truly believe from your heart. Jesus Christ paid the death penalty in our stead and nailed it to the cross. Romans 6:23 - For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Ephesians 1:13, saved and sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise. Heaven and Hell are real, literal places, there is nothing in-between. Choose your eternal destination wisely for your soul. Time is running out, tomorrow is not promised.

It came in handy at both jobs and my coworkers would be shocked when I signed. When I was at McDonald's there was a regular who was deaf and we never knew if he would go through the drive thru or walk in. If somebody spotted him they would switch spots with me. The could write to him and stuff but we became buds so they would swap with me to say hi. That gentleman made my day.

So, there are those that know different sign languages. I can not imagine how they are kept straight. I struggle simply with ASL. In fact, interestingly- just as there are different dialectics of English from different countries or even different states within the U.S. ASL has various "slang" that is used based upon where you are from. The basis is the same, but different regional nuances.

    @Peter Evans So because you personally haven't met any deaf people, learning ASL as a foreign language requirement is a dumb idea? That's like saying because you haven't met a Spanish speaking person, it's a dumb idea to learn Spanish. It's not as if they don't exist, just because you haven't met them. It would quite literally open up a new world to learn how to speak another language, let alone ASL. It''s not as if learning ASL in high school is going to put students at a disadvantage. Not understanding why you think it's such a dumb idea to learn a language.

    This is so good. I am deaf and while I cannot sign, I DO rely on lip reading and due to the current pandemic, mask wearing has made it difficult. I work in a supermarket and not every customer wants to remove their mask just to talk to me if they have a query, they will often walk away, this actually hurts me, as I love helping people and such behaviour makes me feel useless. I cannot understand what you say through your mask. I am glad that that cashier knew, more people should know/be aware.

    Fremont California...the schools in our city in the '90s and 2000's taught sign language because we have the school for the deaf and blind in our city. My son spontaneously helped a kid out shopping when he saw him getting upset with how he was being ignored but mocked. So he signed and helped him and let rip with the staff at the store. I was never so proud as a Mom and so surprised to find out he had an unknown skill to help until that moment. Going blind myself so I was thrilled to find that our city includes all kids from all families to stay in touch and live as regular a life as possible. His class has spread all over the USA and these young 20 somethings? Amazing generation. Gen z and then some. Oh yeah!

    And now the employee needs to be made top employee of the year and also be put on standby . That customer will feel comfortable coming back knowing there's someone that can communicate with her.

    Every time I see this it makes me so happy! She must have felt so good and the cashier is amazing for that! I wish I knew sign language and hope to learn. Such a pure moment for them both!

    Not ashamed to say the best customer service I’ve ever had was at this restaurant.

    Same here! Our Chic-fil- A is super organized where I’m from, and I’ve even had employees so nice that they’d open the doors for me and say something pleasant on the way in or out!
