I started out in the deli and (this goes without saying) hated it. Because I'm a good working I quickly got transferred to the Bistro. I like the Bistro for the most part and enjoy the people I work with. But Lately I've been thinking of switching to front-end assuming I could get a guaranteed 40 hours...

How long do you have to work at Kroger before you're unionized? I've heard 30 days and 60 days. I need to know because I might get fired for something stupid.

So last night I came down with a bug, took some Advil and decided to sleep it off. This morning I woke up with a terrible sore throat and felt congested, etc. I called in two and a half hours before my shift and spoke to a store manager who was upset that I was calling in. He's not even associated with my dep...

Hi, I would like to know who usually does the scheduling. Is it the manager of the department or the HR, who hired me? I want to know because I need to request some days off,

Hello, My hubby and I moved from CA to AZ. He was told to fill out the transfer request form for food 4 less and send it to the HR guy here in AZ which he did. The man he spoke with told him to send him copies of the paper work and let him know when we got into town, so he could finish sign some other papers and start...

I'm asking this because I just called in an hour prior to my shift, however nobody sounded happy about it. I also had to call the service desk because I couldn't remember the correct number, and so was transferred twice. When I got to the final one, they just asked for my name and hung up after telling me to...

May 25th I definitely need off because its my graduation day(High School). Do they check these requests weekly, or do I need to talk to someo...

I recently started working for Kroger and enjoy the work I do, but I absolutely hate the way employees from the Deli, including the department head, gossip about and talk bad about other employees. It is sad and hurtful! You can not trust anyone in the Deli. I don't understand why people have to be so hat...

This is going to sound dumb, but I still can't figure out how to park a call so another department can pick it up. No one has time to show me, so I usually call the department and ask the question. So which button sequence parks the call?

Something suddenly came up and I won't be able to come in to work on Friday. Is it better to call off ahead of time and give them a few days to find a replacement, or should I call the day of? I would prefer to let them know ahead of time because I feel bad, I wouldn't do it if it wasn't absolutely necessary. But...

So sometimes I shop at the Kroger I work at. There are many things that bother me at this store... like rude cashiers, mispriced items (especially things I don't buy on a normal basis but would if they were on a good sale). I want to give feedback and tell the store they suck and the management things they n...

Hello, I'm so worried I might get fired. I just started working at Kroger about 2 weeks ago in the Produce Deparment. I was on my own from 10 pm to 11 pm tonight to close up, and I had to put all of the corn husks in the compost outback, so I was going to go do that, and I forgot that the alarm was activated. I set of...

If you get suspended for something (it's a long story), does it have to be for an 8 hour shift or can it be a 4 hour shift? Because supposedly i'm getting a 1 day suspension but apparently it's not all that serious because it's not even occuring this week. It'll apparently be scheduled like that the follow...

I'm a back up frozen food clerk working my way to head frozen manager. At another store the head and frozen backup employees weren't doing so good so they asked them to step down. The backup got to keep his full-time by going to nights only because our union rep fought for him. So as the backup frozen foo...
