    DS15 got his first job

    I'm so proud of my boy, he turned 15 last week and applied online for a job at KFC. He had his interview yesterday and the manager told him she was so impressed she offered him the job. He was so nervous leading up to the interview but obviously it didn't hinder him. He has a training session tomorrow night and starts working next week, he's so excited and I'm so happy for him.

    Regards,
    Dianne

    Aww that's great
    My sister worked at KFC for years, payed her way through uni. She made really good friends, and they still keep in contact. (She is now the australian marketing manager for a very well known company! Haha!)

    Great news! My first job was at KFC! They have great training program's and development schemes, and if anything like when I was there lots of food incentives. I always ended up taking home chicken and potato and gravy etc.

    Well done to your DS! And good way to make him get sick of eating fried food lol (I'm assuming if you cook/serve it all the time you wouldn't want to eat it?!?).

    Well done to your DS!
    My 15 yr old DD very recently started working for KFC too. She has had 3 shifts so far and loves it. I'm a very proud mum too It's great watching them take pride in working and becoming independent.

    He did his training orientation last night and really enjoyed it, they even got KFC for dinner. They also offer Cert 2 & 3 in retail which he would really like to do further down the track, great opportunities. Now he is eagerly awaiting a phone call to see when his first shift will be.

    Nope, if anything, the staff discount makes you eat it more often!

    I remember when I first got my first job. It's so exciting!

    he told me about the staff discount today, I'll let you know if he gets sick of it, it's his favourite takeaway too.
