Long time lurker first time poster, been with Kroger 10+ years now. *Vent* Been having multiple weekly store walkthroughs with leads and managers for over a month now, while more than likely it's because the store I work at is in the bottom five in the district in terms of "fresh/friendly" scores the f...

Where do you go if you want to schedule a certain day off? I only work 20hrs a week but I want to try and watch my daughter play her last 2 softball games of the season.

It is hit and miss in my store.

There is a bully in my store and she happens to be the LEAD. She behaves in typical jealous and petty ways and also gossips about me constantly. I got fed up and filed a complaint but it went nowhere. Odds are stacked against me because i have only worked for the store a year and the store director likes her i...

Why is it that no one ever stands up for others? On rare occasion people who are being treated badly at work will stand up for themselves and tell a coworker to stop. However, when you see someone else being repeatedly abused for no good reason why do people decide not to get involved? You have an opportu...

Hey guys, God among the freight throwers here (lol jk). Tell me why working for Kroger sucks, but why you're sticking around. I know I've got my reasons, but I genuinely want to hear yours. This forum gives me enjoyment because most of the posts are things that we can all relate to and seem to be company wi...

I just noticed that I gave a, 2 weeks in advance request, for a day off (for a doctors app.) over a month ago. I gave another one about 2 weeks ago (an MRI app.). Both times they cut my hours a week after that requested day off. I had to put in another request for the 21st of this month (app. with a surgeon). When...

How come Kroger hires more people when they don't have the hours to give the employees they have? My hours went from 21 -16 hours a week and I heard they're thinking of hiring someone else in the my department. How can they do that? 24 hours -32 is considered part-time and I don't even get that.

I was checking my paystub and noticed that there was a new category under "Other Deduction" called "ACH SVGS 1." Usually I just have my union dues. I would have made about $130-140$ this past week but when I checked my bank account only $75 went in. When I went back to check my paystub, I realized whatever...

Hey guys, Attached is my resignation letter from back in October. I'll tell you this: NEVER be afraid to bail on them, no 2 week notice, if they treat you like garbage. You have more leverage than you think. I left without a notice, without a warning. Guess what? The company hired me right back and I'm cur...

I have had customers asking me to sell the individual bottles and or cans of beer that you use to make your own 6 pack of beer, and when I tell them that I cannot do that, they complain. Either they tell me there are too many rules regarding that or they want to speak to a manager because they do not want to pay t...

Any tips on being a seafood lead?

I haven't had a chance to talk to anybody about this yet. I was told today that part-timers who average 25 hours/week are eligible for insirance. This sounds the same as before, but they acted as if its new. Did they shorten the waiting period or something?

Just like my subject line suggest does anybody know how to do that accurately? I've heard different things again from people at my store and I just want to verify which is correct. 1st way-You count 7 days from the date something goes out and it's that date 2nd way- Count 7 days but you subtract one, cause...
