That's my kids favorite place to eat. Here in Atlanta we have them on each have side of the interstates. Just in case you don't feel like driving on an overpass to get to the other side

As long as you don't drink Natty Light, you're cool.

That would be strike 1.

After that you better say how much you love NASCAR and the wings at Hooters.

Ok, you flunked Waffle House 101, you might be able to recover if you learn these "go to" phrases which will get you out of a jam in the ATL:

1. Hey, how's you Mom'n'em?
2. How'bout dem Dogs?
3. Hey Joe, dat you?

As a UNH grad, I had a lot of trouble understanding anyone from the ATL in my earlier years, until I married a southern girl who taught me to speak southernees.

Here's a couple training videos for you:

Now I'm bilingual.

Good thing I do like NASCAR. Bad thing is I bet I cheer for the driver most people in ATL hate. So what I am hearing is I might as well with draw my app because I am screwed if I ever have to go to ATL. Maybe I will bid to fly there the next few months so I can learn some of the lingo and waffle house "culture".

And to timbo I am stuck on the 1st phrase "1. Hey, how's you Mom'n'em?" Not sure how to say the last part. Those are great training videos. I will keep watching them and talk to my wife using those phrases in the video. (I am sure she will not mind)

After watching the second video I know know how and what phrase one is. Thank you between these video's and Lumosity I will be ready for the delta interview if they ever call me.

Yeah, like MD88 said... you're done.
Gritts are disgusting. Is there a way to get hired and just have a limitation with my seniority number. "Only North Bases"

First of all, it's "grits" not "gritts." Dude!
