What makes you a Caniac?

I think what makes a Caniac has a simliarity at a base-level to a lot of concepts (love the food / experience...connect on a personal level with the brand...etc.) BUT, there's the intangible...the variable that that creates a difference for companies like Cane's - something you try to describe but can't quite...that [thing] you feel as a part of buying and enjoying - the "experience" - the little things you tell others about...the subtle way you connect with a (hate to say it) BRAND. Caniacs are "cool," "trend-setters," "quality-centered," and "brand-loyal" people who enjoy what the company has to offer - it's "One Love," It's great chicken fingers, no more, no less. A Caniac knows the difference.

It's waking up in the middle of the night, in a cold sweat, yelling "Heard That!"

I am a Caniac because I LOVE THIS COMPANY! I have worked for several concepts, but I have never connected with a company, it's Crew and it's owner like I have with Cane's. We do things to make the lives of our people easier-WOW-what a great idea. Our concept is simple and easy to manage. We work for/with caring, compassionate, and knowledgeable people who want the best for their people. What else can you ask for?

I hate it when Luke copies off my paper, that was my exact definition.
