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.

And what happens if the store goes against that?

How much do you guys think it would cost to buy a Kroger? I was at work today and had the thought of "How much could Krogers corporate headquarters get some poor unsuspecting sucker to pay for this store?" My store for example is I believe the largest or in the top largest for our division, So we...

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.

Went to Kroger tonight to see if any of the Valentine's Day candy was on sale -- all I found were the flowers. They've already taken down all the Valentine's and now have it set up for Easter. Within 48 hours of the end of Valentine's Day. Smooth. Gotta give them that.

Can someone please help me understand these Kroger paystubs? Why does it list regular hours, night premium hours and sunday hours as different categories? The pay rates are exactly the same, except for it shows the fifty centy night premium. Added together, the hours exceed how many hours I actuall...

HOW can Kroger's force employees to pay union dues and they dont pay a union wage? So an employee that was hired at .10 over minimum wage, forced to join a union and pay union dues, which means they would therefore make less than minimum wage and be forced to strike so the big dogs could get more money... wh...

Has anyone else been told that we aren't allowed to turn off the register light anymore? Before, we had to turn them off if our register would be unattended (like if we had to go to the restroom) or when it was time for us to clock out. Now, I'm being told I have to wait until someone relieves me, but the hug...
