I don't know how you feel about this but I love coming in to both the kmp and grocery truck from yesterday and have some management ass hat have the nerve to act like you are to get it and today's truck done by your loneesome. If .I could do that I sure as hell would not be workin for this piss poor excuse of a company. So anyways have a nice day at your store.....Im sure its a ''family'' store
This morning my store manager shows me a picture of trolleys of cookies left out over night, and complains that we left a mess in the department.
Nevermind the fact that we had no closer, and we had to shut down the bakery at 3pm!! Because it was only me who baked, and i stayed over 2 hours already; and my cake decorator, who gets stuck doing stupid stuff like breakout now because our unreliable closer and the other one who quit with no notice.
But yes, it's unacceptable to leave a mess......
no thoughts on it being unacceptable to have a bakery department with only 2 people working in it a day.
4hourrush, anything you would say would be an excuse. Higher ups only want results with everyone following the plan, leaders are expected to figure it out at any cost (just not OT, Higher Wages, more Staffing)!!

That's it in a nut shell: modern day management style. lead not with positive reinforcement and effective strategies that work, but with fear and intimidation that creates hostility, apathy and loss of profit.

Freaking ridiculous. You know, if your deli/bakery coordinator and store manager cared enough, I bet you they could find one or two bakery employees that work at the surrounding stores that would be willing to come over to your store and help out until the staffing situation gets straightened out at your store. I know it's possible because I've seen it happen where a store will borrow help from another store when it is needed. Also too, why the heck isn't a co-manager stepping up to help out? It used to be, and it may still be this way although I'm not 100% sure, that the MD-1 training program required a co-manager in training to work EVERY single department as part of the training process so that he/she could STEP IN and help out when the situation called for it.
It just goes to show how LITTLE Kroger actually cares about taking care of the customers and how little value it places on its "great people". It's absolutely amazing such a poorly run company from the corporate level all the way down to the store level has survived as long as it has.

We were told they were giving us extra hours for baking this week. For one thing, we don't need extra hours for baking, at least not for bread. Another thing, the could give us 200 hundred extra hours and it wouldn't do any good since there's nobody to give those hours to. I'm not working any overtime. For 7 hours and 45 minutes a day, Kroger has my undivided attention. After that, I'm done. I'm not doing Kroger any favors.

Well i'm in a store basically on the outskirts of Cincy district 1 so all the "surrounding" stores are 20-30 miles away. No one around here has anyone to spare it seems because we're all in the same situation. I don't blame my coordinator at all, but i do feel like my store manager can be a little ignorant sometimes, not having a clue how the department works.
