1986 Hardee's Restaurant Training Video - 3/3

[@LemonTree9280]

Feb 2023 and I've been binging on 80s/90s training videos. Dont know why they bring me such joy

You know your bored when you watch all of these training vids...and you dont even work there lol

Naw I'm not bored whatsoever....I have a ps5 and plenty of weed to smoke and a load of games to play, I just find videos from this long ago to be very fascinating

[@johnroekoek12345]

Yeah. How would it be to work in one?

[@dzandbergen2]

"Show concern without admitting fault"....'My 5 year old just choked to death on your hamburger'. "We're sorry you feel that way".

[@yourpersonalsupernova3493]

I was very young in 1986 but I seem to recall cashiers in fast food joints giving the impression they wanted to shove your face into the deep fryer.

[@RetroRPM72]

"Don't refer to the customer as sir or ma'am... you may get it wrong." This video is WAY ahead of it's time in more ways than one! If they ooonly knew.

By far the most important takeaway from this video is "Try to show concern without admitting fault."

[@Cocytus127]

9:24 1986: Never address the drivethru customer as sir or m'am. You may be wrong. 2021: Never address any customer as sir or m'am. You may be wrong.

[@sydtrolls]

They think a child can't carry .73 and requires a bag to hold it? Sure some kids wore sweatpants, but that kid clearly had pockets. Also apparently my life isn't as good as I thought, since I am concerned about a child in 1986 receiving change in a bag.

[@calamaty9963]

sydtrolls I'm still wondering how I got here. I was watching the Cinema Snob and some old movie clips and now I'm ready to serve on the frontline.

[@therealxunil2]

Maybe just chill out about it. It was an example

[@LaJuera25]

Let it out

[@johnnyhotcakes5217]

It's above and beyond service, something that's lost in the 21st century

[@straightpipediesel]

The kid jumps around or he doesn't put it in all the way, some change falls out, then the parents think the cashier stiffed them. It's called covering their ass.

I worked at HARDEE'S during my college years in the mid 1990s. I was never shown any training videos. I wonder if by then they just eliminated them. It was part time and I all did was cook the fries n chicken 🐔 🍟 n wash dishes. Guess I didn't need to see training video. The uniforms were much better than whats in the video. Lol. Thanks for posting video.
