He called me an hour prior asking c...

Another obnoxious ad just started here a few days ago (this is a Louisville division store). It starts off with an extremely LOUD whistle of three notes.

Six hours, actually, one-fourth of one day of the year, scheduled just before the Associate Insights Survey. After the One-Fourth of One Day of "Listening" to associates, management can go back to 364 3/4 Days of Ignoring.

currently 17 working in the front end for about a year and CANNOT STAND IT. Customers are rude and management sucks. Is there any possible way to get into another dept? Management recommendations? Typing up a safety plan how you will not use certain equipment?

I was told last week that I am being trained for the Lead. I have been doing what I was trained to do so far, but have had no more training. I know there's more to the Lead position than making sure temp logs are done, outdated items, mark downs, organizing the coolers, and the weekly clean up. 3 people came t...

So on my paystub this week I have Night Prem, and Night Prem 2. Night Prem 2 looks like it's what Night Prem was for the past year or so, with the proper YTD. But Night Prem, is actually docking me money. Does anyone know what's going on with this?

I work in back of 733. Heard a loud, metallic, percussive boom this afternoon. Looked up front and saw smokey mushroom looking cloud. Belt on lane 10 was snapped and rolled up, compressor oil all over the place. Scared the hell out of the customers. Boom was heard by all in store. Lucky lane was closed at...

Joy. Get ready for more useless t-shirts! Our ASP today was going around the store asking for everyone's shirt size for the upcoming "Refresh"roll-out.

I'm thinking of getting a job somewhere else. I'm not happy here & don't think I ever will be. at the end of the d...

Okay so lets have a little story time. Flash back to about a month after I started cashiering at my Kroger Marketplace (one of the walmart sized ones). We have the register set up where the cahier unloads the cart, scans it, and sends it down the conveyor to the bagger. So customer comes through my line wi...

Ever hear once you come onto your shift or walk into your department, all the oh so 'wonderful' things you should be grateful for from your co-workers? And doesn't it always make you want to karate chop a few of em in the neck for saying it in the first place? Like for instance since I've been on closing a he...
