I found a Kroger bag with an empty plastic coffee and sugar container in it hidden on one of the shelves. I figured the person dumped the product in a zip lock bag and walked out with it. I decided to open them and look. They had lint in them like someone put pocket change in them. They could have put the...

I'm not saying that the baggers weren't at fault. I know several of my coworkers that call out "sick" or hide somewhere in the store. However, if you're a veteran cashier, baggers are told to help the newer cashiers because the customers are cranky because the new cashiers are slower. Als...

My 60 day probation period was over yesterday 11/21/15, I didn't work on 11/21/15 but i did tonight 11/22/15 and when i got there the store manager called me up to his office and said "I'm gonna make this easy either you sign the 15 day extension or you're terminated." So I signed because i di...

Is there even such a thing, or is it just a myth I'm hearing? Can you actually negotiate yourself a better pay with getting a promotion to a different department, or is it all just done on a flat scale of when you start and how many hours you work in that position?

So, it's Sunday. Football shoppers, thanksgiving shoppers. At capacity all day long, doing a 9hr shift on register, rarely have a bagger. About 5 of them are MIA, and lobby is somehow empty of carts. Then I have to wait until less than 2 hours left in my shift for my second break because all the baby cashi...

It seems like almost every day I'm being asked to stay extra. I could use the extra money, but I wish they would just schedule me that way to begin with so I can actually make plans and know when I'm going to be home. It makes no sense why they're scheduling me for 4 hours and then ask me to stay 8 as soon as I get...

Hey y'all I was just wondering if you were full time or not, currently in my fuel center there are 7 of us no full time and I'm the lead. Is this a normal thing?

Well next week in the deli at my store we have very few hours to work with. Other than the one full timer we got, I'm the only one with over 34 hours. This week we have 100 less hours than the same week last year though sales are up 25%. All this after our asst. dept. manager transferred to another store fre...

So I'm guessing your black and a male? If you want promoted work for it. The company has a a lot to offer you just need to put in the work. I started as a bagger when I was 15 and now I'm in charge of my own department, and I'm only 23.

I just got hired at Ralph's as a courtesy clerk and I have my orientation soon. Can some one please explain how much money the union takes and if it's worth to join. I'm only 16 and I don't plan on working here for more then 2 years.

We have signs posted at store 928 in Bloomington that they will be seeking a 2 week in advance schedule in Jan of next year. Does this mean that bi weekly pay is inevitable? That's the current rumor mill atm.

So my gross was $346, net $251. Took a look at my paystub, saw damn near $17 in union fees? Now, the only thing I can think of for the reason is my vacation week, but I didn't work that week, and union dues came out of my vacation check. Is this odd, should I mention it to the HR person, or is there a special fee th...

One of the supervisors on Sunday asked me if I could work next Monday (I'm normally unavailable). They kind of forced me into saying yes - I said no at first a few times but they kept insisting and getting more pushy so finally I said I would. I thought that was the end of it and they would write the schedule w...

So, we have a thread stickied with all the usual ring tender tips, but I was wondering if anyone had any more unorthodox, unknown, or high skill tips to increase ring/tender. I'll start off with a few of mine. When a customer mentions at the start of an order that they need to grab an item, never start. I...
