About

I have known “Shea” since the early 2000’s when she worked for me at Wendy’s. She was the sweetest, kindest person I had working for me. Even though I left that job in 2005 I still remember all my rockstars! From time to time I’d see Shea working a drive thru window and I’d ask why she wasn’t working for me at Fazoli’s. Finally about 18 years later, her life situation changed as she was able to rejoin my team, this time serving up pasta instead of burgers! Shea always comes to work with a big smile even though she is in chronic pain due to several medical conditions including Multiple Sclerosis and Fibromyalgia. But that doesn’t stop her from having a great attitude.All our guests love her holiday themed earings and ask about her when she’s not here. I happily nominate Shea to to the All American team.
