Thinking about jumping ship to Wal-Mart
(Preview)
With the seasonal needs here, my local Wal-Mart may or may not need additional workers. Since I have been a courtesy clerk with Kroger for nearly ten months, and had to be on parking lot duty at least once per day on average per shift, I am thinking about seeing if they need help with Lot areas. I think they...

The stupidest thing you've done at work
(Preview)
(that didn't get you in trouble) I needed to shred a sensitive card that was white and laminated. My override card looked very similar from behind. You can see where this went, lord knows I didn't. They were just concerned that about it being lost and I'm like nope, I know where it is. In the shredder. (s...

Scheduled Shift.
(Preview)
I work 2:30-11 tomorrow. I thought nothing of it until I suddenly realized that it was an 8.5 hour shift. I know that they're not allowed to schedule you more than 8 hours a day. So, when they do something like this, do they (the scheduler) even realize that they did it?

It amazes me.....
(Preview)
......how customers go out of their way to clear off a shelve that has sale items on it, but skip over the few items that has loose labels on them. It makes you wonder. Would these same customers pass up a loose labeled item even during a national food shortage when there's a mad dash for groceries? 100% o...

First of, I want to apologize for asking this question in here, since I know this is really intended for Kroger employees. But I thought you guys might have some insight...

Busiest Sunday I have EVER SEEN

Our little friend Mr. Que-Vision said that we had 10 registers open on-and-off for nearly an hour. It was like The Walking Dead, every time you turn around it's another zombie-walker. Only no zombie-walkers, just Kroger customers. Some (like myself) would ask "What's the difference?"...

This is just something I want to get off my chest, no real solutions are required. I have been working at the service desk for almost a year now.

If you were store manager...

If you were store manager what are a few things you'd do differently? Anyone you'd fire or demote? Any under-appreciated people you would promote? Any policies you'd change? Just curious.

What's your Kroger fuel tax?
(Preview)
2x and 4x fuel rewards for gift cards are nice, but around here, it's undermined by Kroger's gas being regularly at least 20 cents higher than than the nearby warehouse fuel centers, ie Costco and Sams. How does your Kroger fuel prices generally stack up with the nearby competition?
