2nd June National Rotisserie Chicken Day rotisserie chicken supermarket rotisserie


Every year on 2nd June, the United States celebrates National Rotisserie Chicken Day — a food holiday honouring the convenience, flavour, and versatility of rotisserie chicken. Found in nearly every supermarket (Costco, Sam's Club, Walmart, Kroger), rotisserie chicken is the ultimate weeknight dinner shortcut: affordable, already cooked, and delicious.

The origins of this unofficial holiday are unclear (likely a supermarket or poultry industry promotion from the 2010s). But the love for rotisserie chicken is real — Americans buy hundreds of millions of them annually.

Rejected by KFC, Remembered by the World: The Jack Ma Story

THE CRA PERSPECTIVE • SUCCESS & LEADERSHIP Rejected by KFC, Remembered by the World: The Jack Ma Story How rejection, persistence, curiosity and an unconventional vision helped shape the journey behind Alibaba. RESILIENCE • ENTREPRENEURSHIP • POSSIBILITY Sometimes, the door that closes in your face becomes the beginning of a journey you never imagined. Imagine applying for a simple job, standing among 24 candidates, and discovering that you are the only person who has not been selected. For many people, that moment could become a lasting source of embarrassment, self-doubt or resentment. For Jack Ma , the Chinese entrepreneur associated with Alibaba, this rejection became one of the most widely repeated episodes in his personal story. He has publicly recalled that 24 people applied for a KFC job in his city, 23 were accepted, and he was the one who was rejected. But the real story is not about a fast-food job. It is about wh...

Same Tree, Different Eyes: The Psychology of Perspective

THE CRA PERSPECTIVE • HUMAN PSYCHOLOGY Same Tree, Different Eyes Why we see the world differently—and how perspective shapes our decisions, relationships and lives. We do not always see things exactly as they are. We often see them through the lens of who we are. Imagine a large, beautiful tree standing beside a quiet road. Its branches stretch towards the sky, its leaves dance in the breeze, and its shade offers relief from the afternoon sun. A child might see a place to discover birds and nests. A carpenter might see the possibility of creating a table or a chair. A woodworker might think about timber. A businessperson might calculate its commercial value. An environmentalist might see biodiversity, ecological balance and the importance of conservation. The tree has not changed. Its physical presence remains the same. Yet the thoughts, emotions and possibilities it evokes are remarkably different. This simple observation ope...
