Hoping the board can help me. I am brand new. I just got hired in WA state in a non food area. I am wondering how benefits work? Meaning do I have to work a minimum amount of hours on a weekly basis - pt12, pt20 etc? Or is it just when I reach a certain amount of hours total that benefits begin? Is there a link or ot...

I'm a CC and I always try to do my best, but I feel like my coworkers (cashiers) sometimes get annoyed by me. What is a fast bagger to you? Usually I bag just in time when the customer finishes paying or like 30 secs after (which is like forever with everyone starting at you to finish) And I try to get custome...

Yesterday I got a text from another front-end employee asking me if I could cover for her at the last minute. That employee mentioned that she was given my cell phone number. Does your location do this?

Do you have a Kroger co-worker that swears you like them, even though you never utter a peep to them, or they think you like them when you are just nice to everybody. Or they swear that they are God's of the Kroger universe, yet they can barely do the minimum required of their job. Or they feel you must give t...

Instead of raising a stink about how passive/aggressively nasty my immediate co-workers are to me, I decided to throw in the towel and give my 2 weeks notice. Things were getting really uncomfortable and the few times I hinted that there was a problem, I was blown off. One woman in particular made no b...

We got a new girl yesterday. I will say she learns fast, but don't let her know that. She let's it get to her head. She good with customer service, but the minute you tell her she's training she gets an attitude. Uh! It's your first day. "You are in training. You are on a 90 day probation. You can be fired for a...

First person I talked to convienently took a vacation before bothering to send my paperwork. Now I'm supposedly waiting on one more signature. Literally going to run ou...

Back story/long story short: Short hours, much packaging for the cookie promos we have going on, and as usual behind as hell in bakery. Will add that our chronic complainer from the deli came down wanting a cake for her baby shower. Cool, thought she wanted to order one. Nada, she wanted to see if I could...

So I've been working as a grocery clerk for a few months now and I'm kind of known around the store as the clerk who can be spotted filling just about anything from dairy to home goods. However, my real interest lies in Click List, is it possible to somehow request a transfer to be a Click List employee or am...

A customer came through my line today and got two packs of some sort of vitamin. She was perfectly friendly for the first part of the transaction, and we had a conversation about the pretzels from the bakery. It then came time to pay and she said the vitamins were supposed to be buy one get one free. Sure en...

I finally left FM/Kroger in June due to severe lower back pain. I "trained" as many customers as possible before I left -- like asking them to kindly leave their 12-pack of Pepsi in the cart with the UPC up. Most people are oblivious to putting heavy items on the belt, thinking they are somehow helping us...

I am a former employee for Kroger. I quit on good terms 6 months ago and moved to a new city. Now I am trying to get hired at the store in my current city (have a interview lined up) and I am wondering and hoping that I will start here with the same pay scale as I left off at. Like the pay steps will be the same becau...

At first I thought our F.E.S. (Front End Supervisor) was a friendly person but his true personality quickly showed. He's bitter, snips, some what rude. He does it all professionally but goodness it's like dealing with a constant complainer. He finds a new pet peeve every week/few days to complain ab...

Hello everyone! Now, I was let go from Kroger today, on Day 19 since my orientation date (August 24, 2017.) I'm honestly quite a bit confused as to why, but seeing as Indiana is an 'at-will employment' state, and I was within my Probationary period, there's really not much I could do. I was in Click-List...

I don't know these things... I'm not a manager or stocker... So what exactly am I supposed to say to a customer that asks me such questions when I'm walking through the isles to go on my break?
