I dislike windy weather as a UC when I'm on carts. I feel its nicer then snow or rain by a long shot, but I am not looking forward to summer months. (Any tips for summer?) Nights are also a little weird for me, being VI, when I do carts. I don't trust the orange vest as honestly when I tried it, traffic did not re...

So I called in two days Sunday (Daughter sick) Monday (daughter Sick) and did a NCNS on Tuesday. When I came back on Thursday management was requesting I turn in a note to return to work. I dont have a note excusing the days, what can I do?

Does anyone know if you can get copies of paystubs prior to the 18 months you can go back on Ess?

Okay, so this is going to be a bit long and I apologize for that. I'm not really sure what to do at this point. I technically work for Kroger since my store is owned by the Kroger company. I've been at my store for a years now, coming up on three. I've always had issues with the scheduling at my store but it was n...

I'm a CC. This week, I'm being cut from 40 hours down to 29 hours. I'm a full-timer. However, there's a CC who has only been there a few months and is getting 38.5 hours this week. We both have open availability. I've been working at Kroger for almost two years. On the schedule, I'm the very first person and...

we had this latino guy deliver a load to our store one day last summer, when I went to open the dsd door to let him come in I saw that he had someone with him, it was the most beautiful latina girl I'd ever seen. I started unloading the truck but took a minute to go tell some guys they might need to make a trip to b...

my coworker asked me if I had a 5lb chub. That sounds like sexual harrassment to me but only because I don't work in the dairy detarpment. Our dairy guy apparently does have a big dong so this coworker talks about his 5lb chub all the time. How should I approach this? I don't want to go to management and...

Can someone give a brief description on how Elms works? I work in Night Grocery. I know Dairy, Grocery and Frozen share hours. I am trying to figure out how I am supposed to get the work done without going past the hours scheduled. For instance, the biggest truck is Monday morning. Recently a 27.5 hou...

Whenever I hear this song on overhead, it makes me perk up a little inside and realize my job isn't so bad and that today is a good day while smiling and trucking on. Even follow along with the whistling sometimes if customers aren't around lol ...

I've been scheduled outside of my availability for over a month now. I'm growing increasingly irritated with rescheduling doctors appointments because my boss wants me to work. I've had to cancel an appointment, reschedule one twice and missed out on a family event because last minute i'm schedul...

I got an SRI or whatever and was told I had to take a Break at 2 hours even if I didn't want it and not later than that. And that it was in the handbook that it has to be every 2 hours. Is this a true statement? Just curious. They said it was in the union contract and what not and I can't find an answer.

Hey guys, So I haven't posted in quite a while, but I wanted to let everyone know that I moved away from my home town and started working with a new company that is a smaller chain in Utah with only 18 or so stores. Essentially I started as a "freight boss," but I work rotating shifts (graves for 3...

We've got several but I'll start with this family that used to come in once a week. Mom, Dad, and like 3 boys of different ages. They all looked sickly- you know the kind where you saw a ghost and turned white or you haven't eaten anything and look like you might pass out? There was just something about t...
