It's a Kentucky Fried Friday....
It's a Kentucky Fried Friday.... The company I work for has invested a lot of money on employee luncheons and benefits through the entirety of the virus. While I know employee retention is one of the main reasons, I feel they also realize just how emotionally and physically taxing this whole thing has been for us all... Us being the essential workers who have come into work each day during it all... Us being the essential workers who have to deal with the shit head, proving a point non-maskers who try to breeze through our doors and create a scene when asked to wear their mask.... Us being the essential workers who have to explain to customers why we don't have the products they are looking for even though "It's in the ad!!" Us being the essential workers who wake up with a headache or cold-like symptoms and are required to call into work and miss a day of pay because 'what if it's COVID'?!? It's funny, though, to see what perks and benefits garner the most attention from the employees. While the $300 bonus at Thanksgiving and $300 bonus for Christmas were amazing, it's actually some of the food days that have caused the most excitement. And, today's food day has been one of them! I had been chatting with a counterpart of mine at another store on Wednesday, finding out what food days they had done to get some ideas for my store, when she mentioned KFC. Honestly, it wasn't even a thought for me. KFC? Fast food?? She's said they had been easy to work with and it was a win because food didn't have to be individually packaged and their employees seemed to like it. So, I presented the idea to Boss #2 yesterday and we decided to go with it. I was traveling around the store putting postings up to let the employees know we would be doing a KFC food day today and it had gained attention immediately. "Really?? We're doing mashed potato bowls?? Oooh! I can't wait!" "Oh my god... I love their pot pies!" "I haven't eaten there in forever..." It made me smile to know that something as simple as a pot pie could make someone's day. Even I was one of those people who were like, OMG! I can't wait!! It's also been forever since I've eaten KFC as well! Here's to a happy Kentucky Fried Friday! - |

A Big Box Store Warehouse that I worked at , before Retirement, would periodically through the year have a Day, using the wood-fired BBQ grill they had, feed all the Employees, Grilled Burgers ( known as Burger Burn Day), other times they would grill the fixins for Breakfast Burrito's or cover top of grill with a sheet of steel and make Pancakes !! Even though I worked for an out-side Security Co., they fed those of Us On Duty at the time also !! X-mas time Catered Party, they handed each Employee a $500 Bonus Check except for 10 randomly drawn Employees that received a $1,000 Check !! They even gave Us a X-mas Card (signed by the Management Team) & Check for $100 too show Their Appreciation of Our Work !!

Happy KFC Day......me and the Mrs like to have it on Boxing Day after our hectic day before. It's nice to have someone else cook for us even if it's curbside only! That's our usual anyway!!

Every once in awhile it's a nice to eat some of Colonel Sanders chicken. Even nicer when the boss pays for it.

The bonuses were taxed at 22%.... Everybody and their brother were in my office to bitch about why their taxes were doubled on their pay checks. Mind you, I have nothing at all to do with payroll, nor do I have any control over what the tax codes are... But instead of thinking, holy crap! I've got an additional $245 coming to me! They're bitching because... Jesus Christ, they took an additional $55 out in taxes! Greedy goddamn company.... Uh, yah... Greedy goddamn government. It's called income tax.

I still can't understand why there isn't a KFC over here in the only city in Cornwall? The nearest is 15 mile away!

It's been a long time since I've had KFC. The one we had in town went out of business years ago so it's at least a 20 miles drive to the nearest one. Might have to make that drive soon for finger lickin chicken!
