I've only been working in the Dairy Dept. for a month but I've been tasked with coming up with a better way to organize the stock in the cooler because we have an issue with stock going out of date. The main problem with the way it is now - the milk, OJ, etc. palette at the back of the cooler is often getting neg...

It's easy to throw 55 cph so why is management saying that my coworkers and I are only averaging 45 cph? It makes no sense to me because we all are super fast. Can their numbers be wrong?

He says he's never used Uscan before. So I say okay, let's get started. I start scanning the first item for him. He has a couple produce items, I look them up in the catalog, going as slow as possible so he can see which buttons I'm pressing. Customer besides me has a help screen. I clear it quickly. He start...

Several times our Utility people have found what seems to be drug paraphernalia in our bathrooms. The other day two women went in together into our handicapped stall. What do you do in situations like this? Call for a on duty Manager or?!? Any comments welcome.

Lady at work was checking out with a buy one get one free rain check on ribs which are on sale this week for $1.77 I believe. The cashier started accusing the employee of being a thief and stealing ribs because she had a rain check for ribs which weren't on sale last week. Lady told her to shut up or she'd kic...

Do those people have to go thru the same application process as the rest of us? Here in my area a company called Just People supplies a lot of them to local grocery stores (including Publix.)

The pharmacy that had access to the controls for the temp in our breakroom told us that they were "locked out" of it. Manager today said he went in with a thermometer and said it was OK-he said it was 78 degrees in there. Rumours are that the temps are controlled out of corporate. Is this happening to any ot...

So I worked at Kroger during the summer last year and went on a LOA for school. Now it's about to be over, so I'm wondering if I just come in when it's over to talk to them or if they'll call me/update my schedule or if I need to call them...? How does this work??

My Department Head keeps harassing and treating people like crap. It isn't just because of work we do. Everyone hits the minimum 55 cases or above. Keeps making threats about getting people moved or fired and making smarta** remarks. My supervisor knows he does this when he's not there, but let's him...

Has anyone heard if this program is moving beyond the Cincinnati division? I've heard rumors off and on about it coming to the Louisville division for a couple years now but nothing substantial. As a scanning coordinator I was curious as to how it would affect that position, undoubtedly fewer hour...
