Rude customer wouldn't walk to the other end of the table to get a twist tie. Instead was a jerk about it.
(Preview)
The other day I had a customer scold me about one station being out of twist ties. We only get in so many and had zero in the back. Made an incredibly rude comment about it and was annoyed when I told him we didn't have any more in the back. Please don't be this person. Even though he was able bodied he refused t...

Getting fed up with this company and moving on sooner than later.
(Preview)
Given this company 2 decades of my life and for what? Nothing. Just a pay-check-to-paycheck job. No good deed goes unpunished with this company. Lack of promotional advancement. Schedule requests are now all of a sudden null-and-void and not even a suggestion. Moral is so low in this company it has h...

How much is too much? Coworker requests shift swap every week.
(Preview)
How much is too much? Coworker requests shift swap every week. Generally I don't mind if the individual is reliable as I've been on the short end of the stick a few times. I don't mind to a degree. I have a few coworkers that want to change shifts almost every week. If they are reliable and I am not doing anyt...

Store manager that left to the office got screwed with a temp position. :/
(Preview)
Our store manager decided to take on a position at the office district. The company sort of screwed her over with a temporary position but didn't tell her that. Shame it's rare to get a 1st manager that everyone likes, feels comfortable talking with at a personal level to a degree and willing to work wit...

Enacting my back up plans. Store has gone down hill since management has changed.

I've lost track of how many store managers I've worked along side with at my current location. We've probably had 10+ in a six year time frame. Staff is less than pleased with where the store is going and quitting or transferring out. I'm enacting my back up plan. I've given this company almost two decad...

My time make shift swapping easier and the original assigned person no longer takes the hit for the other being no-show.
(Preview)
This has always been a bit confusing: If you decide to swap shifts with another coworker. You show up for their shift but they fail to show up to yours. Who is responsible? According to my time the shifts would be completely swapped. The shift originally assigned would now be swapped with another cow...

(Preview)

These people did their job duties very well and they eventually got them on some sort of technicality. Just because you're in the union does not mean you're 100% safe. It just...

Took 6 months but our store manager finally acknowledged the store is short staffed and pushing corporate.
(Preview)
You're loosing staff left and right to being short staffed and enduring toxic environments. You can't keep staff long term because of the horrid pay. Your company is enacting fantasy environments from the office that do not work with the real world and if we don't comply you start writing us up. Your...

You do not need to download the my time app.

If you are like me and refuse to agree to the "I agree" clause and have read through it and have found phrases like "we can remotely delete data on your phone." a bit of a security risk... You can do the same dribble in your phone web browser. Kronos is going away so you will be forced to use this. I can only fee...

Kroger: Why can't we view our paycheck stubs on the server? Why do we have to download every damn one?
(Preview)
The old system you use to be able to view them from the server and now you can't. I'm not always on a computer I wish to download my pay stubs to (ie the company computers, public computers at libraries or even on a tablet) that doesn't allow downloads. How the hell do you view paycheck stubs without downlo...

Kroger use to always offer alternatives to uniform requirement's: Now they don't.

God I was happy when this uniform bs ended. It's expensive, their employees are too poor to buy uniforms and they often wear them to shreds before replacing them. Our manager is enforcing the shoes for crews shoes and it's super frustrating not being offered an alternative. Company has always offer...
