I don't think Meade would leave the chicken place at this junction. He is looking at a possible Assistant Manager/Day or Full Manager/Nights if the place goes 24 hours. He has worked at the place in a desk job for at least 3 years and has accumulated a bit of seniority, able to take vacation during best times. The money would have to be very, very good for any deal. It would be a good choice though, with Meade's knowledge of food joints he'd bring some good new ideas. New blood thing.
