My Division is about to roll this new system out in our booths. Anyone else have it yet? What's been the experience so far? Good? Bad? Both? Anything we should be aware of? I played with the training mode and looked over the training documents. It looks cool and seems like it'll be better overall. But m...

Does your store have those concierge people? Ours does on occasion. Apparently they're part of this special program that Kroger has. At our store, they show up wearing these red t-shirts that say "I'm here to help you" and their sole purpose is to go around the store asking customers if they need hel...

Okay, so the Kroger I work has a position in both the deli & bakery for just stockers they don't fix food, cut meat, bake or anything they just work the truck then leave. Our store manager says that they have increased our department sells by 20% but I really don't see it, he says that they are keeping...

Hi! You've seen me on here recently and in times past; I don't work in retail any more, but I did for many years, and I like to cruise these types of sites to, I dunno, vicariously re live some war stories, get some laughs---and in this case, pass on a thought. I'm not here to try convincing any one of anythin...

Right now I am an ACSM on the front end. Wondering if it would be worthwhile to keep climbing the Kroger ladder (a long journey between each rung it seems). I make $18/hr, net 560-580 per paycheck, have heard rumblings that a CSM makes $21/hr (which is $840/paycheck *before* taxes at 40 hours, unless ta...

Just wondering. I, of course, tend to be scheduled for 30 minute lunches. However most days I work as the 5:00am to 2:00pm combo clerk but I usually just take 30 minutes and leave at 1:30pm. Do any of y'all actually take an hour?

Hi. I am being hired for a courtesy clerk at my local kroger. I have to go for a store walk through tommorow and I am worried about my first day. What will it be like? Is it a bad job? What is a Store Walk through?

Whats the best department to be in?

Here's one for you. According to our contract and state labor laws, we are suppose to get two 15-minute breaks if we work over six hours. This one woman, who was scheduled to work six hours, asked if she could stay over and take another 15-minute break. The answer of course was no.

My store gets a lot of OSATs, but our scores are lousy. Customer .comments always say how great we are, friendly, clean etc. We seem to be lavished with praise but are graded as satisfied. That is just like a fail, hence, crummy scores. Our manager just got into big trouble for continuously getting low s...

Newbies in our department keep asking about holiday pay on Easter. One of the long timers said no but our assistant department head insisted that we do. Because of this, some people volunteered to work Easter and were excited to have the holiday pay. Checked my paycheck this week, I'm not a newbie but...

Have you ever had a serious crime happen at your store?

Mr Frontenac

Are these numbers like reserved UPC codes for store brands or something? Years ago when I used to be a cashier in another state in a store chain unrelated to Kroger, their store brands began with these numbers. Now here with Kroger, I see these numbers.
