Sherry Taylor started her 39-year career working for the company on July 9, 1986, which was then named Rockingham Poultry Cooperative. She started working for the company on night shift in the Packing Bins department. She stayed on night shift for five years before transferring to day shift and worked in the KFC department until the department went to Dapec machines. She then started working in the Fillet Sizing department in Breast Debone and is currently working there.
I asked Sherry how much has changed since she started working for the company, and she said there have been several changes. She said the first time she walked in to the facility, she could see the lines going around through a big window. The departments have changed; the KFC department is now the Dapec department. There was leg deboning, marinated parts and a freezer in the past. Many of the jobs that were performed manually are now automated.
