Red Rooster letter: “I will put the ‘man’ in ‘manning the counter”
Jul 21, 2017 · 1 min read
For all of 2017, I have been hosting a segment on Melbourne sports radio station SEN. We do different ‘fan’ topics each week, from Fantiques Roadshow to the made up sporting games of your childhood.
At some point, SEN sports reporter Brett Thomas revealed that he would have been an AFL premiership footballer, alongside schoolmate Ashley Hansen, had he not had to work at Red Rooster.
This prompted a listener to send us his son’s job application letter to Red Rooster, which is so hilarious I decided to post it here.

Nicholas Berry, you are a genius. Keep writing! Thanks for sharing it with us, Craig Berry.
Fandemonium airs on SEN Afternoon with Francis Leach, every Tuesday at 2.20pm.
