Is it just me, or does anyone else get tired of all the pricing "gimmicks" going on all the time at Kroger. 2 for $1.00, 3 for $5, 2 for $5, 10 for 10 dollars, etc. It gets SO annoying. Why doesn't Kroger make everything as simple and up-front as possible for the customers? Sometimes it confuses custom...

Not only do they get 50 fuel points for doing it, but I give 50 points for bag credit to each customer for doing a good survey, whether they have bags or not. This OSAT is such a bunch of crap. I get a $5 card for each shout out of my name. I used to get excited about shirts and hats and jackets, but how many can o...

our contract is expired but even if the contract is expired shouldn't the union have to fight to help you keep your job? isn't that the very reason we have a union or at least one of the reasons?

I posed this question several months ago but didn't get much response. Is "Fresh & Friendly" just another BS customer service initiative?

I work as a courtesy clerk, but I am going to school to become a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning technician. I was hoping to get some experience in the HVAC industry by becoming an apprentice somewhere. I discovered that Kroger hires HVAC technicians, so I was wondering if they hire appren...

I am sick and tired of them coming to the bakery at 6:00 in the morning looking for stuff. Don't expect everything to be full at that time, especially if it has to be baked. We come in at 5:00 AM. Don't expect any particular item to be baked and ready by 6:00 AM. If a customer wants something that early, w...

I had foot surgery three weeks, had my LOA approved by HR under FMLA, but I didn't receive a paycheck. Where is a Time Loss form (in Michigan)?

One manager tells me I cannot override the price of override because it's the law. Another says I can, just not apply a scan rite on it. So this has me confused. Who is right?

Mr Frontenac

It's my day off and I'm not wasting it by going all the way down there. Every time I have an issue and I have to call them, it is virtually impossible to get a manager on the line. They put me on hold for a long time. And if by some miracle I do get a manager, they're unable to help me fix my problem. See today I've g...

I see this option on the Uscans and on the registers. It prints out this funny looking receipt with a barcode on it. What is their purpose?

Basic question, my hr person says that if you were part time and went full time that your status date was the median of your hire date and your full time sate. Ie I started in 1/1/2005 then went full time 1/1/2011 so my status date would be 1/1/2008 is this true? And if not who do I need to talk to to make this r...

Apparently there's a mode I can set it to where the robot allows things to be scanned without any security checks. It essentially allows things to be scanned as fast as a normal register. I can see this being VERY VERY VERY useful to me in the future, like when it's busy and a customer comes through the sel...
