    ST. LOUIS     A local Chick-fil-A ground to a halt Wednesday after an employee accidentally told another employee, "My pleasure." As a result, the pair of employees became trapped in an endless loop of "my pleasure" with no end in sight.

    The incident reportedly started at 10:30 a.m. just as breakfast hours were ending when a rookie employee identified as Ben Johnson told his supervisor, "my pleasure" when receiving instruction on switching to the lunch menu. The employee's supervisor reflexively said "my pleasure" in response and initiated an endless loop.

    Customers reportedly watched in disbelief as the pair continued to say "my pleasure" repeatedly for over an hour before giving up and going to Burger King, the gayest of fast-food restaurants.

    "This is why we can't speak to each other the same way we speak to customers," said Chick-fil-A CEO Andrew Cathy. "Unfortunately, this is not the first time this has happened. The original Chick-fil-A location once remained closed for a week because employees couldn't stop telling each other to 'have a blessed day.'"

    Chick-fil-A corporate has dispatched a team of troubleshooters to the location to break the infinite loop before the employees involved starve to death.
