we did that at subway as well. in fact, it helped me out one time. i was on the way home from work at about 1am and i got pulled over for going 10-15 over in a 45mph zone. the cop was handing me the ticket and about to walk away when he said, "hey...where do you work?" i told him i worked at subway. he said, "sorry. i didn't recognize you." then he tore up the ticket and told me to drive carefully.
