    Just 4 hours ?

    Well done on the progress, what did you have to do at work to get to where you are now ?

    I just get on with my work & I am always looking for ways to improve myself

    My attitude to work helps too as I don't take any days off sick, I would have to be bedridden to have a day off, lol

    I keep my head down & do my job to the best of my ability & I always look for ways to improve myself at work

    I love this thread, it's very inspiring. Your work ethic is second to none. I'd hire you in a heartbeat.
  • Thanks I just wish other people could have the same attitude as me then the world would be a better place

    I am just a normal guy just doing my best to get by

    OK just to give you an update

    I have now been at KFC for nearly a year, the store I am working at has been closed down so I am being moved to another store in the area

    I will hopefully be doing my front of house training & drive-thru training at the new store

    In March/April next year I will be moving to a brand new store in the area, so its not all bad news

    I have for the last 3 months or so been working upwards of 36 hours a week (one week I worked 49 hours), on a 4 hour contract

    I am still enjoying my job although it can sometimes be stressful, my coworkers make it a lot more enjoyable for me

    I am still using the bus at the moment & will continue to as the new store is about 10 miles away (so a 20 mile round trip)

    I can't think of anything else I need to say

    Any questions please do not hesitate to ask me

    Thanks

    TT

    I always think your colleagues normally make or break the job. I've made many friends through working as we all spend that much time at work.

    Good news about the new store though as there might be new roles for being a team leader etc

    I spoke to a woman from head office & told her that I wanted to go as far in the company as I could, she told me that they are always looking for Shift Managers (Team Leaders), and the opportunities are there for the right people & that they are recruiting for SM's for the new store now, so lets see how thing go at my temporary store shall we
