Dex,

Tell the powers that be, that KFC is too damned high priced as it is.  It always has been kinda pricey for what has typically been less expensive meat, but we the customer didn't mind paying a little more for something that tastes so good. 

I had some KFC a while back, and it will be some time before I go back again.  Prices are getting out of hand, when you can go to a sit down place, and get waited on for a few dollars more.

I know it's not your fault, but I have to tell someone.
The best thing you can do is call the 800 number and complain. That is the only time they take consideration about anything. If you complain at your local KFC it does absolutely NO good. Not to mention the fact that the cashier has NO control over anything. Us cashiers get the brunt of it for everything,and we have zero control over anything.  I've been screamed at, cussed at, and had money thrown at me. A friend of mine had a guy that got sooooo pissed, because we were out of something, that he drew his hand back like he was gonna hit her, and slammed his car keys to the ground. What a moron!!!! If he would have done that to me, I would have went over that counter, and beat him into the ground.  :mad: I've got an extremely bad temper. It takes me A LOT to lose it, but once I do it ain't good.  :no:

I did a house thats up for an award. Two months ago the builder and the president of the regional homebuilders association contacted me and asked for some information (pics, plans, description) to submit. I sent it all...with a note saying "if you need it digitally, let me know. if you need anything else, let me know."
Two weeks ago, having heard nothing other than "Got it, great, thanks!" I emailed both, making sure everything was hunky dory.

So today, two days before the deadline I get a call and they need a rendering and the builder has decided to have a professional photographer do a shoot, and can I be there to make sure he gets shots of significance. Um...no to both, because theres no way that can happen in two friggin days.

Does that mean that you miss out on the award because they planned poorly?

Today, our district manager remmed my boss for some reason. We all caught the brunt of whatever he reamed her about. I got singled out because I hadn't had time (we were extremely busy), to make out time tickets, for the stuff I pulled from the freezer. She made sure she got everybody's attention including the customers in the dining room, by using a very loud voice to bitch at me. This is how it went...

Karen.... "Dex... if we had a CER right now, at this very minute, would we pass, if they looked in the walk in?" You have no time tickets on anything."

Dex... "Well probably not" I've been soooo busy I haven't had time to get to it yet." "I haven't been able to get away from the counter."

Then it dropped... she moved on to ream the cook. I asked the AM if she was gonna be like that all day? The AM says" God I hope not, I have to work with her all day." We all know she was taking it out on us, because she got chewed out. Hopefully, I'll find out what it was all about tomorrow.  :biggrin:

Did you smell Pig Pen anywhere around you? Did you sit next to the little red haired girl? Does Linus still carry his blanket? Did Charlie Brown ever get invited to anything? Enquiring minds want to know. :biggrin:
