I have a couple of 4-hour paid personal days, but my supervisor wanted to know if I could come in after my doctor's appointment. In the greatpeople website, I've used one of my old personal days from when I was a cashier. In the site, it says it counts as 4 hours. I wouldn't mind getting another 4 hours but I...

I was recently moved from a large store to a smaller store, taking a pay cut after I addressed massive weights and measure concerns along with food safety (chicken leaking onto produce that they proceed to sell anyway). What are my options. I have 100 pictures+ over a year or two with evidence of my mer...

Apparently it just changed here in Georgia several months ago-now cashiers must have the customer show ID for a purchases of cigarettes (including vape products, but we sell very few of those.)

Learning about the general bull****tery of my district/store, and reading about the same sorts of things going on on this forum has made me lose any respect I once had for this company. However, I'm wondering if there is any chance that this is due to confirmation bias. Does anyone have anything pos...

Has anyone else in Cincy/Dayton had their "Our Promise" meeting yet? What did everyone think of it? It was a 2 hour propaganda piece that isn't "uplifting" at all when it can't even start at the management level...

For the moment I just do third shift U-Scan on weekends (so you know Saturday night is lovely every stoner and drunk comes for miles to get their pizza rolls and ice cream) and try to do anything I can to make time fly by and move quickly as possible when customers aren't around. When my journey started it w...

A month ago I had requested my vacation week to be scheduled for this coming week. The CSM said, oh sure, I've got ya. I mean, this is my first time requesting a vacation, so I assumed everything's good when they say it's good. Two weeks ago, I see (on the eSchedule/greatpeople site) that I was scheduled t...

So I got transferred to another store. Once I got there I noticed a few things are different. I've worked for Kroger for almost 2 years. So I know Kroger Policies. When I show that I know how to do the job, the others are intimidated by me and talk. If I ask questions, they roll their eyes, make ignorant comm...

People need to stop complaining about each other. They need to stop finding faults in others. They need to accept their part in the problem and resolve it. Blaming others gets you nowhere. It doesn't solve the problem. Confront me face-to-face. Tell me what I'm doing wrong and I will change it. When y...

Was talking to someone the other night and said in the 5 years I have been with Kroger that we only once had to hustle people/customers to the back of the store due to an impending tornado/severe weather alert. Most of us ended up in the back warehouse. Someone said that was NOT the safest place that we sho...

You know those idiots who think you're watching them to see if they're stealing? Well I had one the other day taunt me in the lobby area when I was putting some carts back. Every time I'd come out to put some baskets or carts back, he'd be there, running his mouth at me. Throwing insults.

So I had to get the bills and check off each item one by one and re-stack the stuff that wasn't ours on to a pallet so it could be picked up. It's...
