so here lately I've been having 3 to 4 pallets of ice in the freezer at one time because the company keeps Distributing it. This past time I barely put a dent in the one I had ordered a few weeks ago and then last week they sent another pallet of the same size bag. It already takes me about a month to get rid of on...

I thought that it was rude of the new guy to do that and I didn't say nothing, and now I caught his cold sickness, I'm taking EmergenC. He was two hours late and was supposed to come in at 10'oclock and help me unload the grocery truck for night crew, so that is what he was doing when he sneezed on me, and I was pi...

Well the deli/bakery dept. I'm in is down to only 8 people between the two with the people we had quit this week. Yet with this the department managers were forced to cut 20 hours off of next weeks schedule. Seriously WTF are they smoking? And to beat all one of the guys still there comes in hours late al...

Anybody have tips on how to throw faster? I usually do the nonfood side of grocery (pet, laundry, paper, baby). We have to go straight off the pallet, no spotting. We usually spot some stuff , but right off the.pallet for the most part. I use the big boxes of paper to hold my trash. Anybody have any words...

Does an associate have to be with Kroger a certain amount of time to get holiday pay? my official hire date is 10/18/14. I work in Produce

What say you? False, I say. Consider:Kroger is already the 4th-lowest-paying company in the US with no pure-grocery competitors below it.The Kroger niche isn't, "We're the dirt-cheapest thing out there in food." Charge a penny more for the processed-junk items, and compensate resp...

Been cold here in the South. When the sliding doors open in the main lobby the cold air rushes into the store and you can feel it freezing by uscan, self-check out and one of the registers. So the other day one of our uscan persons was apparently wearing a jacket. But since it wasn't Kroger-approved, the F...

Availability: Is Seven-Day/Night Wide Open the Only Option? One store is kind of making it seem that way by leaving submitted availability revisions pending indefinitely (ten days) or sometimes by declining them the day of schedule-writing . . . which kicks the can down the road and leaves the work...

I can't deal with being a cashier anymore. Don't really want to move up either, since it's gonna be more BS to put up with and it's not really worth minimum wage. Hated pushing in carts all day and cleaning restrooms, but now it doesn't seem all that bad after I've experienced what it feels like to literal...

Does anyone else have a department head who basically does nothing, then tries to act as if they're the only hard working one in the department? And I got bitched at today by her for texting her on her day off. It was one little text, as much as she plays with her phone while she's at work I didn't think it wou...

Today (November 15th), the store radio only played Christmas music. Usually we have a few sprinkled in at this time of year but this was the first time we heard Christmas music and it was all day. Also our radio is really annoying because it's 90% horrible country

Hello. I was very fortunate to retire in 2008 with 36 years and 55 y/o. I took the level income pension. I am now 61 and will turn 62 in May of 2015. I now work full time driving a transit bus. The question I have is by working full time I will make more than is allowed under IRS rules. That will trigger a large in...

I work in the meat department, and all of our hours got slightly reduced this week, the week before thanksgiving. How does this make sense? :/ It wasn't cut by much, but everyone lost about an hour on average.
