Do you think if I act like a self-centered college student brat who thinks they're entitled to everything and tell management I'm so distraught over the election outcome, that they'll give me another week off?

I've been working at Kroger for a year as a night time grocery clerk. I want to go to another Kroger for a daytime grocery position. Can I go to another Kroger and sign their bids?

.......Especially temperature-sensitive food items. This is a great example of the thoughtlessness, inconsideration and pure laziness of SO MANY fellow Americans. Every day I find all kinds of stuff left randomly in the produce area (where I work) and I know it happens constantly throughou...

My hours got bumped up a little more in the last few weeks so I'm pretty much okay with it. However, the short hours I was working caught up to me in other ways (stretching my gas mileage, paying bills when I could, etc). I checked e-schedule and the changes I made a month ago are still pending. Is there some...

Quick question: I was unloading the produce/meat truck and had to take a pallet with a hand jack into the meat cooler. The problem was that the pallet was leaning, and it fell over while I was in there. To be honest it was a loooong night, and was a few minutes before my shift had ended, and I figured that the...

That annoying soundbyte that's played over the "music" system about every 4 minutes , all day long. It sounds like a chorus of 4 or 5 voices singing several words/notes (of no melodic/musical interest WHATSOEVER) that are practically unintelligible. Finally figured out it's something abou...

Where should I go to report this. I tried 1-800-Kroger was no help. My Union steward in store will not be helpful.

So.... We have a customer, an elderly lady, whom has come in our store off and on for months. And when she's here, she begs other people for either money or for them to buy her food. She bugs everyone. Customers and associates alike. She would keep trying to pay with random garbage she found on the floor.....

Hey everybody, So tomorrow is D-day for our store, as we are hosting the holiday walk thru from Corporate. As a relatively new employee still, I have no clue what that means all that much. Other than that they will have techs check out our freezer and say how it is supposed to look(I'm in the bakery, and wi...

Both seem to take me an hour per aisle. Also is cleaning up trash Included or not? Just spotting, stocking, and cleaning up I do about 60-70 cases per hour. Conditioning takes about 45 minutes to an hour and backstock varies wildly depending on how much is on the cart and how much will go up.

I've been working in produce for about a year now and only called in sick one other time. I take care of my nephew and Saturday night he got really ill and I stayed up all night caring for him. He was still really i'll the next morning, so I called in at 8:00 a.m to inform the manager that I wouldn't be able to co...

Hi guys my department manager has taken like 10 personal days and has been paid for them. How the hell do they give personal days to people who call out everyday. Oh yeah and the department is in a time of need with all the holiday supplies. How many personal days are people allowed to have per year

I start as the new seafood lead tomorrow. I basically think I have it all down, except for some technical things managers should know (inventory, signs, resets, etc). I have only been seafood backup for the past four months, but have been in the meat department for a year. Seafood is a wreck now, a wreck...

What do you think will happen when negotiations start in March? My union rep says higher pay is at "the top of the list."

Is Kroger the only company that gets away with scheduling employees right below 40 hours, 39.50, 38, etc. for weeks on at a time and scheduling them 6 days a week too and not give them full time? I was just looking at our Deli schedule a few days ago and noticed that there are a lot of people scheduled right b...

I applied online for a job in early 2009 and was denied due to my background check. I actually got a letter in the mail from corporate stating this. I was unhappy with this result so I went to the store I applied at and walked up to the customer service desk and told the black hunchback of notre dame guy I want...
