Help finding image of homophobic Cracker Barrel termination

I remember I've seen online (maybe through a link from someone here? tried searching but no luck) a photo of an actual Cracker Barrel employee termination slip where the 'reason for termination' basically just said "gay".

Any chance someone here remembers where that was posted?

Thanks.

Cracker Barrel changed their company policy about 10 years ago and now is a far more gay friendly company.

This is good to know. Their cake is to die for, but I couldn't eat it if it was cake with a side of bigotry, no matter how tasty.

Queer Nation was going to hold Sip-Ins on Sunday mornings at Cracker Barrel restaurants. (This was back in the 90s.) They proposed that they and their straight friends would go to Cracker Barrel on a Sunday morning and just order coffee. They'd sit there and drink coffee and talk all morning long. When they left, they'd just owe a little bit for the coffee, but they'd leave a really generous tip. I don't know if they ever went through with the Sip-Ins or not, but I thought the tactic was brilliant.

The Coca Cola cake? Word. There are a lot of recipes online that get the same result, if you're interested. :)

Glad to know their policies have changed, I prefer their unhealthy breakfast food over Bob Evans and IHOP.

I like Cracker Barrel and it's good to see they've changed their policy on gays. It's good to see that companies are getting the message that homophobia is no longer tolerated by the general public.

The Cola cake? Yes. It is. And the mac and cheese and the country chicken and the biscuits.. sigh.

Coke cake sounds gross.

I see what you did there....

but forreals, chocolate cake with a can of coke in the mix is ungodly moist and soft and rich.

I heart CB with way too much heart, and was (pardon) heartened to observe an openly gay guy manning the cash register the last time I ate there.

Glad to know the policy changed.
