When you're at work customers come first! Who doesn't get this? I'm standing there taking care of 5 customers, while one team member is frying chicken, another is on break and the fourth is on the floor chatting with coworkers. They look right at me seeing me serving these customers and don't budge. I h...

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 I know there's more to the Lead position than making sure temp logs are done, outdated items, mark downs, organizing the coolers, and the weekly clean up. 3 people came t...

I have a customer who is just a total a****ole to me. I can be s polite as could be to her and be professional as possible and she b***hes through every step of the conversation. Moans about every detail. Chews me out to the mangers each time she comes through about the tiniest detail. Last time I aske...

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...

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?

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?

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. We did one of these pointless "Refresh" initiatives around three and a half years ago with Kroger wasting (ahem, excuse me... spending) lots of mo...

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...

In our store....when a customer asks "can you look in the back to see if there is (name of product) we all say "everything has been put out." Besides our store doesn't really want us taking stuff out of there anyway. Messes up what night stock does. If a customer comes in with reusebale bags (most of them...

I recently found out there is someone new who does the schedule. I have been requesting weekends off , but this week it's been denied. I'm off on Sunday but they have me working from 11-7 on Saturday. There are plenty of cashiers that could have been on the schedule for Saturday. Do you think it's because...

describe your work environment today. I think we're all feeling the blow of reduced hours so I imagine we should get some good responses. I'll start. 2 people on vacation this week and 1 of those people's hours just "went away." I'm not sure where they went, but I had to replace BOTH of those people on...

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...
