I know your answer is likely "I've worked for kroger for 20 years and nobody is going to give me 6 vacations..." true, but do you realize that if you go to school and get a degree, you can easily make more in 1 year at another job than you make annually at kroger? I realize school costs money and you'll li...

I pay $12 per week regardless of how many hours I work, so why should I have to maintain 20 hours to keep insurance? I'm going to school full time and don't want to work 20 hours. I wound up declining insurance through kroger because school insurance costs about the same and I don't have to maintain a cer...

Mother ****ers. We have limited space as it is and we keep getting pallets of kroger 12 pack toilet paper. I swear at one point we had 7 of those things in house! It's not just **** paper, it's all kinds of other crap that we don't really need. If there's a sale, we'll order for it! Another problem is t...

My union contract however, states for any Utility Clerks employed after 3 years, 9.05 and we are topped then. But my con...

We've all experienced something in our time at kroger where they brought in some *new and exciting* thing or new way of doing something only to have it fade away mere months after its implementation. Often these things are just walmart retreads. "hey it didn't work for them, let's take it and improv...

I'm not really concerned with the card, I've seen the flyer and all the fees they're trying to set us up for. I thought "ok I'll get direct deposit and avoid the situation with the card" well then we get information that we can have our checks mailed to our home. How is that saving anyone time or money? M...

The associate manager at my store swears that associates with a year or more will be getting 3 weeks of vacation time. Does this have any merit or is he mistaken?

Some people misinterpret Seniority. Seniority only has to do with hours, vacations, days requested off, etc. Others think seniority means you don't have to listen to the Lead or Managers because you've worked their longer than them. This isn't true and causes conflict. They need to call it someth...

For the safety of courtesy clerks, for the safety of customers, please speak up when people block the firelane to use the Redbox. As a consumer I exit the store and if a large SUV is parked right by the store entry, it impairs the vision on other drivers. Once I was exiting, carrying several two-liters...

Within the same state, is there such a thing as store seniority? I've never heard of such a thing in 24 years until today from a fellow associate. Isn't it division seniority?

Mr Frontenac

Comes back and asks me if I saw her EBT card at the Uscan. Of course I didn't, and so I try and and apologize to her and even offer to walk her over to the service desk and search for it myself. She calls me a dumbass for not paying attention to her lost card in the first place and just walks away. So I'm the dumbas...

Why do customers still come in to shop during power outages? We had one a few days ago and people were still streaming in despite the fact that we hadn't had power for 4 hours and we told them so. In the deli department they had a tarp over the pre-sliced meats to keep the cold in and the employees were told no...

Just out of curiosity, how many people do other stores have on their overnight stock crews.

So, I printed off the pass the baton last night. We had 2365 peices which it said would take 54.25 hours to stock. Scheduled hours was 30. Now the problem in our store is that our store manager insists that we not leave until trucks are done every night. I finished my shift last night with 57 hours. Nee...

Our back room is a disaster. There is stuff piled everywhere. However, the shelves on the salesfloor are empty because the stock crew can't get the product out. So they're going to close the store from midnight one night to 7 AM the following day for a total of 31 hours in an effort to put things right...

So I found out today that soon our bakery pies will be coming in pre baked. This is NOT good at all. Sure right now so many bakery departments are understaffed I get that. This is a terrible solution. It will take hours away and make us nothing more than glorified stockers. Baking used to be a skill, we act...

People in our store are coming to work sick due to the 3 day rule that says you have to get a doctor's note to return to work if you are out 3 days or more. My manager is also sick too and went home early tonight. Why does Kroger do this? Many employees don't have the money for a doctor like me!!!
