KFC employee named morgan

I went to KFC @ 7228 Maynardville Pike Knoxville TN. I went through the drive through. She said can I take your order ? I said I want a 12 piece with white meat and can I have 3 breast? She said you get 3 of everything. I said ok that's good. She said is that all and I kept on ordering and everything thing I said she would say is that all? Is that all? She was really rude . Then I get up to the window and she has this mean mugging going on. I just hand her my card to pay for my order. So when I got home I was making my family's plates and there was only 8 pieces of chicken and I paid for 12 pieces! Also there were only 2 breast and the rest was thighs and wings! I get my phone and call them ... well they let it ring for like 7 times then picks the phone up and lays it off the hook. I kept on calling and it was busy then I would call back and it would ring several times then they would pick the phone up and lay it off the hook. I'm very upset at this time! I was going to go back there, but I didn't feel like going to jail, so I waited until I got off work today to look up corporate office to make a complaint! I really don't think Morgan needs to work where she has to talk to people, because she is really rude and needs to learn how to talk to people.

KFC 5$ box

Starting off they were completed ride through the drive through and when we got to the window they made us taste our drinks because they said they don't know what's what so just do a taste test and then they forgot both of our cookies and didn't realize until we got back home . It was just a unpleasant experience there today and not one anyone else should have

KFC posted hours

I frequent the Hayward, Ca store on Tennyson Road. The open hours posted day 10:00 am to 10:00pm. The first time we tried to go inside the lobby at 9:30pm. They said they are closed. I said your sign says 10:00. So I suggested that they post that the lobby closes at 9:30 and the drive through closes at 10:00. Last night I tried to go into the lobby at 9:00pm. They said that they close at 9:00. You have to use the drive through. This is very irritating that the time keeps changing. AND THE STAFF ARE VERY RUDE! I would like the posted hours to change to reflect the correct hours. Lobby closes at 9:00 and the drive through closes at 10:00. Thank you!

KFC employee complaint/ uhura feyette green [protected]

I was just hired on October 4, 2018 and was told I would be making $8.50 an hour part time which is 25 to 30 hours a week.

I was told today that it would be $8.25 and that the other manager had no authority? she is no longer there

another employee is giving me orders and sending people home the managers seem like they have no control

they send people home early when it gets slow so how do you know what you will have each week?

there are 4 managers in the store doing the jobs of employees and sending us home when it gets slow not themselves

I was hit in the back today by an employee and I do not think it was an accident

a manager told me to work on cookies and then this employee says she does not need me but he told me to be there

can you please contact the store on 3 old kings rd, palm coast fl

I was told i was to make $8.50 an hour and get 25- 30 hours a week

KFC upset

Please find below a link to a woman's story about the way her deaf parents were treated in one of your outlets. Now I live in England but the story she told was so moving and sorrowful I just had to write to you.

I think you should look and listen to what she has to say. I have shared this with so many people and I for one will NEVER go to one of your outlets here in England ever again and I hope many others don't either. It was cruel and demeaning.

I hope and pray that the women at the KFC the lady mentions are either sacked or made to make a groveling apology and to go on a mandatory customer relations course. I also expect that you as a company to also make an apology to the people concerned.

when I buy the difference was like chalk and cheese up until my last visit
after waiting in the car for who nose how long a young man taps on the window and asks what did you order after repeating our order a bag was shoved through
the window and the young man ran off to deliver other people their stuff. my companion and driver put the bag on the backseat for the 20 min drive home.
upon getting home I found both boxes of chicken completely greased to the max
and no coleslaw. the chicken was inedible the coleslaw a no show my entire nights plans for dinner was ruined for myself and my carer i did not bother to give the other pack to my daughter and grandsons(who where disappointed ).
so all up a bad experience I hope things are improved if and when I venture into any other store. ps I had been a customer of over 50 yrs and it is the only time I have been motivated to complain

KFC manager/supervisor or lack of

I'm 66 years old. I visited your Pacific Missouri location and all I can say is shame on KFC. Drugs being done on and in the establishment, really. This is the worse case of management I've ever encountered. Also the manager her name badge said Phala doesn't have any management skills what so ever her employees were so far behind that us customers asked why she's not helping out, the answer we got from her is she doesn't know how to do these jobs. Apparently she doesn't know how to manage/supervise either. Plus she smelled like weed. Really. Wish I could be the supervisor of this location. I could just sit and text like Phala does too. This would be the easiest job for me too. I like KFC but as for me and all 200 family members that live near this location we or our friends won't be returning. Thanks for your time. Hope you do something soon. Customers are the ones suffering. Thanks again for your time and help.

KFC drive thru service

My parents are 55 & 56. Dad is in a wheel chair, mom has a walker. The went up to KFC 3 times. They don't go that often. The last ALL 3 Times the workers said they were out of original recipe. I don't think they were out. I think they were low life loser high school kids that didn't want to work or serve and lied. Please call me at [protected].

It is the location in Dallas. 5900 S Cooper St, Arlington, TX 76017 Please call me and let me know about this. Also feel free to call my parent that received really bad service 3 times at [protected].

KFC sexual harassment, rude manager, and drugs being allowed in the property, and money allowed to be sent out to employees from the safe.

I'm an ex employee of the Pacific Missouri location at 1922 W. Osage. Sept. 17th, 2018 was my last day worked. I was always called to work on my days off. They got rid of John and hired Phala. She doesn't know how to be a supervisor. She has know knowledge of how to do any of the jobs if she needs to fill-in or help if we are swamped with customers. On Saturday before my last day of work Phala grabs my dick and says I'd like to give you a chance to stay and then we can have sex every night upon closing the restaurant for the night. I was taken back by this and said I don't think so. She then proceeded to cry and said she won't know what to do when I leave because your the only one that knows how to run this place. Know one listens to me and since we do drugs on the property they think I'm now there friend. And if it gets to overwhelming I'll just play sick and walk out. She did this Tuesday the day after my last day worked. She call me on my cell and said she played sick because only her and 2 other people were there to work, and she didn't know what or how to help. I've never done any off the jobs before. I'm thinking you've been with KFC for over 10+ years and you can't do anything. I'm like damn must be nice. Since if left she still texts me wanting to know if I'm coming back so she can sit, do drugs and text all of her shift. I'm like I can I become a supervisor at that location. You got rid of John who was doing his damnest with what he had to work with. Machines not working right or at all. He was the best supervisor you had. Other employees text me and say Phala has lost all control. Maybe she's having a relapse of some kind, she mental health issues that she might need to get straighten out. I just think it's in your best interest since she can't handle her current job duties. Thank you for your time.

It's not John, the ex boss was Michael. She's really messed up. I guess that's why Jesse wants me to come back. She's told Jesse that I can't come back because we are going out. That's messed up considering I'm 1000 miles away. So how can we be anything. I think she's lossing reality, living in lala land. She's still doing drugs along with other employees. But I guess you don't seem to care or your not concerned. Hope something gets done before the customers or other employees get hurt. Thank you for your time and listening.

KFC wrong order and quality of food

I've just purchase a meal $30+ at KFC Helensvale Siganto Drive 13th Oct 2018 6.30pm
They got the order wrong, the chips were soggy and uneatable, the bread rolls stale and there was something forgein in the potato & gravy. ( not sure if it was a piece of coating off the chicken ? )
I've never had such a bad meal from KFC.
This is not acceptable when people are spending their hard earned money on a meal that was totally uneatable.
I tried to phone the store several times but it just rang out.

KFC store condition - dirty

First time visiting store E003003 at universal City, tx. I walked into the store and it smelled bad. The floor was really sticky as if hasn't been mopped in days. The floor and windows are really dirty. I saw an employee try to sweep, did a small piece and stopped. He didn't even try to mop. I hope this place turns around because it's right next to a militay base. I will try this place out again within a month, I hope to see it in a better shape.

KFC drive thru

Been to drive-thru at this location 2x in 2 weeks and had my order wrong 100% of the time. $5 thigh/drum Fill Up odered both times; asked for extra crispy thigh &wing with Cole slaw instead of potatoes. Told no problem. First time got thigh & drum- the rest was fine. This time got things and a small PIECE of a wing, original recipe after the girl asked me specifically if I wanted extra crispy & I said yes, extra crispy. Also got mashed potatoes slathered in gravy instead of Cole slaw after being told yes, that's fine to swap for potatoes. Very disappointed...and hungry. >:(
