KFC's ever slow service

My husband and I love KFC ever since we were dating. Every time we go to Megamall after work in the early stages of our relationship (yihee!), we would eat dinner there. Even during a typhoon, I with my then fiancé braved the knee-deep flood (swam with the dead roaches and dead rats maybe) just to eat at the flooded KFC Espana (imagine Espana during a typhoon). When preggy me was at the hospital, I craved for KFC hotshots. Even now, we splurge on KFC food especially those oh so yummy fries, even bringing our daughter along.

Alas! I am a KFC lover who has been betrayed by her favorite fastfood chain!

Okay that was a little over reacting. I currently work in an office at Cyber One Mall in Eastwood City, Libis. As you know, there‘s a KFC branch across the building. One time when my husband met up with me after work, we heard Col. Sanders calling out to us. Since it was 7pm, we both were hungry and off we went to Papa. As usual, the lines at the counter were long. ME and my husband are quite patient with long lines but this time was different. You could see how SLOOOOOOOOOOOOW the crew worked. And I’m not exaggerating! The crew who took our orders also had a really small voice I asked “HA?!?!?!” several times. Since Col. Sanders begged us to stay for his chicken (we couldn’t resist), we decided to be extra patient. Maldita me of course was ordering with a smirk on my face, wanting to shout at the crew’s face, “YOU ARE EFFIN’ SLOW! Pagong ka ba?” hahaha.

Last payday night, our empty stomachs heard Col. Sanders again. Forgive and forget was the drama. Again, the lines were long but we were patient for this was scrumptious stuff. This was a different crew member this time but hell was she as slow as the first one! We waited for more or less 20 minutes for our turn. When we got to the counter, instead of taking our orders, she the Turtle Princess (the first one was slower so she’s the Turtle Queen) took her back on us, took a tray and prepared food for God knows who. And she did this soooo slooooooooowly. Me and my husband were effin’ starving and really ticked off, we walked out on Turtle Princess.

Does the Eastwood KFC Manager know about these Turtle Crew? Many people love KFC but if this kind of service continues to happen, many of them will get turned off. Oh just to add, KFC SM San Lazaro’s crew once were really sloooooow too. So many customers had those red plastic numbers and waited for about an hour before they got their orders. And we were one of them. A gay couple even walked out on them; must have been really pissed off that they lost their appetite.

Col. Sanders, what’s happening to your crew? Tsk tsk tsk. You might want to create turtle mascots for your kiddie parties, hahaha panget. Here’s an advice, colonel. Never ever hire turtles for your branches. Who wants pissed off disciples, right?
