As you have been aware of the few times I've posted here, I have had to struggle with shortened hours since the change of schedule writers. Well, our writer went on vacation and our CC head did the schedule. After a month and a half of waiting the changes were approved. Not only that, when the writer comes...

In our store there is the Dept. Head and the Backup that works days. Both work by themselves 2 days a week. We get 4 trucks a week, not including Milk trucks. Night help (I call it Night help, but really second shift 3-9pm) is constantly being called out of the Dairy to the Front or Fuel or Whatever. We have...

I've read multiple times on here that you can't be fired simply for being too slow, however I've never read anything in the contract mentioning it. Local 1996.

Things will be fine for awhile, but then it all goes to ****. Last 2 sundays we've had late trucks. The truck that normally arrives early in the morning (between 5-6am) didn't get in until 1pm. Most of our help leaves at 130!! The driver went to the wrong state...the wrong STATE!!! he saw the last tw...

I'm not---provision on Yodel is that Krorger can monitor posts and if you have to have a user name on there, they probably can trace you and your location. Not worth the risk.

It's been down a couple days for me, so I wanted to know if anyone else is having any problems too.

Well this is a new one! In my old store i was used to getting OT upon more OT and in my new store, i was asked to leave 15 minutes early today because i accidentally clocked out late one day... I was a little surprised by it to be honest. I didn't realize stores were THAT stingy about it. I guess from now on i'll m...

Every store has one-the one you DREAD see come thru the doors. Who's yours?

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...

I heard that 14 grievances were filed at my store last Friday because they brought in several co-managers from other stores to work all the backstock in the backroom to fill up all the holes out on the sales floor. I've been on vacation but when I left, the backroom was such a disaster, one aisle was comp...

Our store didn't get least year's results and this year-so far nothing. Did management ever share the results of how your store did?

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...

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.

Today is the first day of Click List at my store, and I'm nervous considering I've only received one days worth of training, where only maybe 1/2 of that day was even relating to Click List itself. Does anybody on here work it? Is it relatively easy or difficult? Also, how do you know what position you wil...

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?

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

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?

It's not my dream position at all, but I got 40 hours off the bat at a fairly livable wage, so I'll stick with it. I've gone back to my home store a few tim...
