Workers Reveal What It's Really Like To Work At KFC 

Col. Sanders was a member of the freemasons

KFC are probably one of the world's worst fast food companies. Why? Arrogance pure and simple. KFC are one of those type of companies that you really cannot tell them anything because they are always right, you are always wrong. They have an incredibly high turnover of staff. Our local KFC has a drive-thru as well as a walk in restaurant. But the intercom at the Drive-thru for placing your order is quite frankly not fit for purpose. It's old, has dodgy wiring and crackles so much so that the poor member of staff inside can't really make out what the customer is saying and so without wanting to appear rude ends up screwing up the orders through no real fault of their own. No doubt angry customers will complain and the company will then eventually end up sacking the poor individual concerned. A quite frankly diabolical company, which I for one can quite honestly do without.

If it's not here in Kentucky it's not kfc

@@ashleyphillips131 LOL America is still the land of fat people though

I think reddit is garbage and so is your channel.

😂🤣

Fr thats funny af im that person

😂

My manager told me I shouldn't anymore, literally behind the dumpster just like James... I think we all have a James. I am ours, where I work. I am our James.

Sounds good to eat whatever you want

The one i worked at, besides eating when ever you wanted, we would trade food with other resturant's when we worked at night. Sometime it would be with burger king, mcdonalds, long john silver or pizza hut. But we went by the amount of food we were trading not by the cost. Did the same thing when worked for little ceasar pizza so i guess all the resturant's did that.

@@ericdonner7199 wow that is so cool

@@ericdonner7199 we did that a very few times but the only place near us to easily trade with was McDonald's. The other restaurants were all across the highway.

@@LibbyBerry🦋🦋🦋 Miss what is the Salary for team member.... How much i can make money in KFC.... Any idea

Rip i just applied- I should’ve checked RU-vid videos before applying 😅 but the KFC near me is literally only across the street… so if anything Im right there

I've been working at my local kfc. Gotta say don't be worried about anything, just know that you need to be manageable under stress other then that youll do great and its lots of fun, I've been working since I sent my comment@@DefinitelyNotAFerret

@@DefinitelyNotAFerrethow is the pay ?

@@jenniferjoanis777 oh rip lol they didn’t accept me 😂 did Trader Joe’s instead and getting $16, which is much better than what I would’ve gotten at kfc by a long shot

Me too. Wendy's. They mailed me my $17 paycheck 😆

@@ericmarin6454 lmao like a 2 hour day

@@catwithavape748 One evening shift after taxes back in 90 or 91'. You're picture is hilarious! Did the cat really take a pull?! 😂

@@catwithavape748 No

I heard there fries are good

Lol good deal

Succes with the diareee

Dont throw it out

I hope you enjoyed your chicken

Mcdonalds bk and wendys does it though . The 4 biggest

Thank your politicians and lawyers for that. Restaurants and markets got sued for food poisoning by lawyers and the politicians passed all these laws about liability and freshness that Restaurants and markets rather throw away the food instead of dealing with the headaches and liability.

@@FlyingTigersKMT The same goes for grocery store meat markets. Lots of stuff to donate, but liability too high, so all (ground beef, steaks, porkchops, etc) all goes into dumpsters. So sad, w/so many hungry people. 😪😥

@@elaineewalt8137 Exactly. There's a bakery near me that throws away all their unsold pies and cakes, brand new in the box, every night in the dumpster, because they can't give it away.

Maybe this is new, but when I google KFC and waste, I now see the “Harvest” program where they donate unsold food to help feed families. I assume this must be newly implemented

that sounds absolutely disgusting reasons why I avoid cheap fast food chains

Why couldn't you wash your uniform by hand in your sink every night?

@@granjmy too much work just for it to get dirty the next day

same fellow blink! how did it go?

Imma apply this wednesday 🥲🥲

You must live near Tabor City, NC LOL!

@@themagus5906 KFC is crappy nationwide 🤮, and just outside Chicago

Sounds like our KFC, I haven't been back in 4 years cuz it was the crappiest food in town and even the floor in the lobby was slick and greasy, and the smell coming from the kitchen made me gag 🤮

Hush now lol we're not all aloud to take anything anywhere.

Nice. I deal with nat. gas., if I fk up, customer house/building go boom.

@@walterbrunswick Double-plus nice here...I work in an NIH facility - if virus gets loose, everybody go BOOM! Oh wait - it already happened.

I hope you have found employment, God bless you

@@michelleredmond4450 Thank you and God Bless you also.

@@jameskearney4100 don't ever give up, keep a positive outlook and wait for the door to come open. You never know what's around the corner so go find it!

Have you thought about selling on eBay?

Wow,we have the colonel burger at our store,i work at a kfc in kenya.its pretty popular and i like it,though our doesnt have the cheese

That's disgusting!

Who's Joe?

Yup free chicken for lunch at my store

A KFC by me is paying 12-13

hey i know this is an old comment but i’m starting a job at kfc on tuesday next week and i’m getting trained in being host and a cook. Do you have any advice for me because i feel pretty anxious about it and is it really that bad?

@@display1235 How's it working out for you?

@@granjmy Honestly it’s going great, im on my 10 minute break atm but honestly dude if you’re planning to get a job at kfc i recommend that the first shift you go on try and make lots of friends, go up to people shake their hands and make lots of connections and that’ll make your job at kfc a lot easier and a lot more enjoyable, me personally i love it. Having friends at kfc is important because you’ll learn faster, kfc will also boost your confidence a lot like you just.. yeah talk to people and socialise, be nice to the customers, courteous and respectful and you’ll be fine! I recommend taking a host position if they ask you what thing one you wanna take, you choose from three, 1st being back of house, people that work in the back of the house are cooks and make stock, things like that. 2nd the middle, you make burgers and pack food, front of the house which is my current position, serving people put the front, packing orders, cleaning the foyer area sometimes, and you just do a mix of things, could be filling the freezers, chip freezers and stuff. Also don’t steal food or drinks because they will catch you and you will lose your job for it. But with that said i’ll put it all into little dot point thing lol. 1st thing, make friends. 2nd, make friends with the managers 3rd do not date your coworkers as most relationships lead in break ups and bringing sad vibes to the work place is unreasonable and unfair to your other coworkers. 4th listen to your managers, last but not least, the customer is always right unless he’s trying to scam you lol. Good luck and enjoy it because i love it here and i’m sure you will too.

@@granjmy Anxiety is gone as well lol, feel confident as hell (just realised i used to be anxious because of my old comment)

@@display1235 Well, thank you so much for sharing your break with me! I'm so glad you're happy! My 1st real job, at 13 yrs old, was in a Henny Penny - like KFC, but much smaller. That was many, MANY years ago, LOL! I enjoyed working the back of house- kitchen, dish, cooking. Hated filtering the fryers, and cleaning them. At 15, the owner made me start taking orders, running the register. That was the best thing that could have happened to me. I WAS SO SCARED of people back then. Facing the public helped my come out of myself. I agree with all of your points. Do not ever steal, or shirk your responsibilities. Don't cut corners. Find something to do during slow times. Don't be another one of those people who just stands around doing nothing when the rush stops, or when there's no boss around. LEAVE your phone ALONE when you are on the clock. When the bosses discover that you are one of the very few employees they have ever had who doesn't lie, steal, or slack off, they will trust you, and relax around you. They'll treat you more as an equal, because they don't have to be on guard against you, don't have to try discern whether you're lying to them. And eventually, if some backstabbing coworker tries to get you in trouble with the boss, that boss will probably be thinking, "Hmm. That doesn't sound like the Display that I know." This job probably won't be your last- unless you're my age *smile* - so you're networking as well as earning a paycheck. Employers talk to other employers. Those are valuable contacts for the future. When jobs are scarce, YOU will be the person working steadily. Do your very best to not gossip. Listen to how people talk about those who are not around. Then watch how those same people behave when the others ARE around. Believe me- that is how they talk about YOU when you are not around. That's how you know who to trust, usually. If they talked about them, they'll talk about you, too.

Nope,cooked every 2 hours or when the chicken runs out like 5 mins before in my branch

@@melisanandy Not my experience. KFC was great once. Now, It has underpaid/high-turnover employees. Whatever the internal rules are for quality, some branches must be breaking them because the chicken is horribly dry. As dumb as it may seem, I still remember the last year I got really fresh chicken at KFC...the year. That was amazing chicken. Since then, nothing close and I used to get an occasional meal because it was on the way--dry chicken again. Now I don't go anymore. Too bad. I grew up on the stuff. Something changed KFC's quality.

I'm pretty sure that it's Kraft Coleslaw dressing that tastes very much like KFC.

Nope no refrying in my brqnch
