First shift at KFC tomorrow??!?
I have my first shift at KFC tomorrow, and my manager has gone away so they will not be there. What do I do? I don't know anyone other than the other new people from orientation but they aren't rostered on the same day as me yet..I'm also going to be the youngest person working there and my mum is kind of worried about co-workers changing me because a few of them are a bit older and into drinking etc but I'm not going to do that, not now not ever. I'm working 3.5 hours and I get my uniform tomorrow then change in the bathroom. What do I say when I get there? Any tips or advice would be great, thanks.
What to expect as being a shift supervisor at Arby's?
They should hire you as a manager. I used to work at arby's and they did that frequently (of course it pissed me off cuz there were a lot of ppl already there who could've just been promoted instead of bringing in a new person). The pay for a shift manager is hourly, but it will depend on where you are located as to what it would be. The only people who get salary who work at the stores are the store managers and the assistant managers (which is why those 2 will work like 55 hr weeks). Maybe 9 an hour? Not sure on that one. And yes, you can work part time or full time as a shift manager.

What fastfood restaurant pay employees well in the UK?
Team Leaders at KFC are paid just under £ 31000 per annum according to www.indeed.co.uk Supervisors at Starbucks earn £ 56856 per year on average. Hourly rates at Starbucks range from £ 7.20 per hour for the over 25s to £ 15.49 per hour for Shift Managers. But never having worked in the Fast Food industry myself, I don't know whether it's a 35 or 40 hour working week needed for those salaries. Under EU law employers can't force employees to work more than 48 hours per week.
What do KFC stores do with leftover chicken?
I worked at KFC from 2001-2005 at 3 different stores and the policy was to throw all the food away at the end of the night. I would typically give people that ordered food near closing extra (if we had a lot of food left) as it seemed like such a waste to just throw it all away. I would also try to sneak food home for my roommates when possible, which I guess was technically stealing, but at least it wasn't thrown in the trash. Typically there wasn't much food left at the end of the night if the shift manager on duty planned well, but sometimes it was inevitable.FYI, if you're the type of person to come in right before closing and order something the store doesn't have so they have to cook it, don't be that person. If someone came in 2 minutes before closing and ordered original recipe chicken, and we were out, and they decided to wait for it, we had to cook an entire batch (20+ pieces of chicken) no matter how much they wanted. I think it had something to do with a minimum amount of chicken needed for the pressure cooker to work properly, I don't really remember. The remainder would get thrown away. All the machines would be clean by that time of night, so they'd have to be re-cleaned. Dishes would have to be re-washed. Essentially the entire kitchen would have to be re-sanitized. Not great when you're 2 minutes from going home after a long shift.
Getting Promoted in The Fast Food Industry?
Ok so, I work for a KFC franchise in Minnesota, but I kinda have a problem. I'm a shift manager at the store I work at, and I might just be putting not as much faith in myself as i should but heres the situation. Hourly pay ranges for 6.75 -about 8.00 (Team Members- Shift mangers) And the Salary Management positions range 25k per year - 50k + depending on store and labor/ food costs (assistant mangersGM's) All the stores in the district are pretty close like all the GM's talk to each other alot so word gets to our district manager fairly easy. I recently talked to our district manager about advancing to Salaried assistant manger job, expressing that i would like to go to more of the meetings, and employee improvement and training classes. In his eyes he talks highly of me to the GM's in the district and all the GM's i know speek highly of me as far as work effort, experience and skills. I'm just worried because our company is so big that other people most less qualified than me being able to move into that position, because people will gladly drive farther or move for such a big pay increase. I'm just wondering if anyone has any tips about types of things i can do to secure that im a top choice of being promoted. The DM told my boss to train me on the things i will need to learn in this new position, but sometimes the followthrough on his end can be scattered. Tips anyone?
What food do the fast food joints feed their employees?
The fast food joints don't feed their employees. The employees feed themselves. If they decide to eat there it's usually the same reason you eat there. It's convenient. It's even more convenient to not waste the 30 minute unpaid lunch period you get on walking or driving somewhere to get food. My experience comes from 10-12 years ago when I worked at Wendy's for about 2 years when I was in high school. The particular Wendy's I worked at was very lax in their policies. Probably too lax at time which is most likely why the General Manager eventually got fired. Anyways, we technically were supposed to get 50% off any food for ourselves. We were not supposed to get a family discount or any free food besides fountain drinks which we were allowed to refill as we pleased during our shift. I ate my dinner there every single shift. It was usually something that would have cost me $3.21 after tax, but instead cost $1.61. It was cheap and convenient and I didn't make much money so it worked for me. (I was only making $5.35 an hour after all!) There were some shift supervisors that would bend the rules and take entire meals home for their families at 50% off. None of us cared. That being said, I noticed a major difference between the day crew and the night crew. I shifted my hours a little and started working a little later and saw that the rules were pretty much non existent. Of course, that was a different manager too. People ate for free. They'd take entire "biggie" sized fry containers full of chicken nuggets or the more expensive chicken strips. Of course, I enjoyed getting free food too, but I was a little more modest about it since I didn't like feeling too greedy or like I was stealing. I don't think anyone would have rang me up if I asked. I also worked at a Peter Piper Pizza at the same time and that environment was totally different. We got free drinks and I don't think we got quite a large discount on our food. I never ate at Peter Piper Pizza because I lived down the street and I can't stand their pizza. In closing, I think it largely depends on the management more than the actual corporations policy. A lot of people will also eat at their job, if it's fast food, out of necessity more than choice.
