I loved that they were so happy after getting 81% on a pass mark of 80%
Yeah I noticed that too 
I went for a job interview/session for KFC about a year or two ago. They were building a new KFS store in my area (Small Heath). Made us design a new store and the reasons behind it and all that team building crap. Did really well but never got the job. Thinking about it now, I'm glad I didn't.
There was an awful lot of food wasted.

Bit O/T but when I've been into a KFC in Jamaica you get a better wider choice of drinks and free refills and a choice of traditional KFC flavour or BBQ. This in a 3rd world country yet not available here?
In South Africa you get a Hawaiian Burger, which is basically a tower burger with a slice of pineapple rather than a hash brown or whatever it is that gets shoved in in the UK. It's very civilized. It's fantastic.

Pulled by KFC due to declining gravy sales 
?EDIT: Wouldn't surprise me if the BBC had had complaints about running a program which was effectively a free advertisement.

I'm surprised she's still got a job after her comments and behaviour. They must think her good points outweigh the bad.I watched the show in the Chinese takeaway where I work, in company with the boss. She was horrified when she saw how they made the gravy - how the hell they could allow that to be made public is beyond me. Presumably it doesn't break any health regulations, but you wouldn't catch me eating it. (BTW our shop has a 5-star health rating).

It's on some popular thieves-of-the-high-seas websites; my interest was piqued from this thread. Quite interesting viewing, I don't think it damaged KFC's reputation, although some of the MD's comments were a little misguided/badly edited, like his 'GROWTH' mantra with no mention of quality food/service. But if his defence to an earlier point, he did say 'the most important people in the company' not 'for the company'.

Surely these sort of places should just forget the interview process, they do seem to employ pretty much anyone...
