Cellphone discount

I was thinking of trying to get the phone bill discount. How do you go on and do that? I know it says to use a kroger email but how do you get one of those? Also can I use it on my moms family plan? or has to be my own individual plan?

Can you go from one department as just a regular clerk to another department as a head? Ex: Meat clerk to head produce. I know they're different contracts and yada-yada.

What's the big deal with write ups?
(Preview)
Everyone seems to talk about getting written up as if it's doomsday, but what's the big deal? Is there a set number you can get before you get suspended or something? Or is it just some way to get you to fear them?
