the supervisor called for 4 associates today. FOUR at one time! There's barely that many associates that could come (if they wanted to). Hours are bad enough that we don't have time to be doing our job and theirs! Is this how we put our customers first? by half assing one job to make the other look b...

is all this more work/less hours what they see as "progress"? I can't remember a time when we had less help. I'm just sick of it. We're supposed to be putting the customer first, yet store almost never gets conditioned, trucks are rolling into the next day, backstock only occasionally gets ran. We...

Hello all! i have been with the company going on 15 years now. A month ago, I went on short term disability due to having surgery. I still have another month I will be out or so. In that time frame I have found another job opportunity. This company has been nothing but good to me (for the most part) but I am rea...

I've been in a large store for a short time while doing training, that did over a million a week. Now for my next....project we'll say right now... it sounds l...

Seems like night trucks are the norm, but at my store we don't do that crap! I'd transfer out of grocery if they ever started doing that crap! KMP sits once the store closes, we run it the next morning. We don't even have a crew anymore really. It's one or two guys to run the whole thing. I should say thi...

Anyone else dislike them? For one thing I'm always having to look at a calendar to see what week (nearly 3 weeks out) I need to request days off for. I guess I could start putting them into esched as soon as I find out, but IDK about you guys, but I sometimes find out about stuff closer to its date (oh cool s...

I started working at Kroger a couple of months ago and I was originally hired to work in the deli. However, when I was doing my new hire paperwork, the HR manager told me she wanted me to be a courtesy clerk instead and then do cashier training, which I did. I've always been on the front end and never worked a...

I was trying to figure out how long you have to work to get an hour lunch. I've had to work several seven-eight hour shifts. I was thinking it's eight full hours of work, not counting lunch to get an hour.

I'm no longer seeing a section under the Personal Profile link on ExpressHR for vacation time, personal days, sick days (not that I get those, lol) etc... Is it gone for everyone else, too? It's not that big of a deal, because I know what I have left for the remainder of the year, but when it all resets in th...

My official position at Kroger is a courtesy clerk. But lately, I have been working in dairy to help them out because they haven't had anyone. Well I'll work it for a week or two then I'll get pulled back upfront. Until they need someone to help cover again..then they put me back there again. Normally I'...
