Yeah for sure call them up..I wouldn't beg but just say you've finished your studies and were wondering if there was a possibility of you coming back to work. I doubt they'd say no because you already know how to do most things so I'm sure it would be fine.
A cook at my work just came back after like 2 years lol cos he was looking for work over christmas and couldn't find anything but we really needed staff so it worked out well.

Hey pretty sure some of the stores do it differently but first shift you're basically a shadow to a staff member. Will he be cooking or serving?
If it's cooking he will be put on a shift with an experienced cook who will show him all the procedures for breading, cleaning, putting chicken in and taking it out of the fryer, all the different buttons etc.
If he's serving the server(s) will most probably show him how to pack all the meals. Then once customers come in they will serve and he will pack for them. We normally show new people how to pack first so they become comfortable with that so when they move onto registers they are already familiar with the items.
He will be with someone else on his shifts for two weeks, then after that they roster you on by yourself. You can always ask the managers or other staff members if you have any dramas though they will be more than happy to help (if you ask nicely and they're in a good mood
)However if hes rostered on for a 3 hour shift (and hasn't already done this) he will probably be doing 'Restaurant Basics' where you go through modules with a manager...basically just filling out paperwork. They will also give him a tour of the restaurant and he will receive his uniform.
And yep the uniform they give you is pants, shirt, hat and name badge. Shoes are not included...and I recommend he gets 'tough' shoes especially if he's a cook because they get wrecked so easily and become really gross from all the oil...even servers shoes get really gross cos you're constantly walking through the kitchen/greasy areas.
If he has any other questions let me know...I clearly know way too much =\

Thanks heaps. He went for his interview today, they basically hired him on the spot. He's doing 4-9 on Friday, and something else tomorrow to put bank details in etc, so that might be the restaurant basics thing.Hey pretty sure some of the stores do it differently but first shift you're basically a shadow to a staff member.

I will let him know about the shoes - so just plain black shoes right?

His very first shift should actually be sitting down for orientation and filling out modules, learning everything from the paper work first. Unless he has done these first, he is not meant to start cooking or serving/packing...
I wish him well. I've been working at my KFC for just over 2 years now. It's not an easy job a lot of the time - but with good workmates and an excellent manager... he should like his job. I wish him well
P.S. What store?

Yep just plain black like school shoes is fine but I'd recomend getting a different pair if hes still at school
Yeah the thing tomorrow will be RB and friday will be an actual shift. Yeah he has to do orientation as well but it normally depends when they run it...some staff at my store have a few shifts first then go to orientation

Ahhhhh fark I'm cooking on friday lol. I've only done one cook shift by myself and that was like 3 months ago. And before that I hadn't cooked for 3 months haha i'm fucked =\ oh well the manager who rostered me on to cook is on that shift so she'll have to help me.
This is more a KFC related question/rant.
Why have prices for a Large Twister Combo increased again, now $11.40?
KFC prices over the last few years have seemed to increase more so then other fast food places.

That doesn't sound right...should be $8.45 + $1.80 = $10.25. At least at my store thats what it is.
Yeah they have gone up though. Pretty sure they went up to compensate for the grillers. But yeah head offices fault not the stores
