I worked at the Kroger in my area last summer as a bagger, and it seemed that most or all of the grocery clerks were men. I want to get into another department this summer, and I'm eying an overnight grocery clerk position. Would they be less likely to hire me in as a grocery clerk if I'm a girl?

Just wondering. I was hired as a cashier but I'm usually never actually a cashier, I work drug gm a lot and sometimes I help the scan coordinator. When I was hired they said I was guaranteed 16 hours at front end, so if I had 2 full shifts with drug gm and one half shift with the scan coordinator shouldn't I ge...

I was having a chat with a co-worker of mine and I said that I don't understand why they can't get any bodies in the deli since we're short handed. The co-worker said that he spoke to one of the store managers and he said simply put: the costs. According to this store manager, it costs ~$1,000 per new hire...

Tomorrow will mark my 16th year with Kroger. I can't believe it has been that long. I never imagined staying for a career. Only 26 more years until I have finished my sentence and can be paroled/retire.

Can you leave 15 minutes early instead?

If you have been following my drama of "As The Home Depot Turns", you know that I called out on Tuesday for my scheduled shift on Wednesday. My Front End Manager didn't like it, didn't like me telling her that it was because of my going to my other job which paid more. She said she was going to tak...

So just got my background check packet in the mail and the grade had a flag not clear for hire, so does that mean I failed? Or do I still have a chance. I've heard of people getting a flag saying do not hire so why I'm wondering if I had a chance?

I went into my local Krogers the other day to buy some chips for a party. They redid the whole store layout and I couldn't find anything! I couldn't find any employees to help me either! So I had to go to the meat department to get help. But the butcher was helping someone with steaks, so I had to WAIT FOR 3 M...

Time and time again on this forum people ask for advice and it's difficult to help without knowing your contract. If you join the union, get a copy of the contract. Learn the contract. If you have questions ask your store steward. You cannot expect Kroger to abide by the contract, it's not convenie...

I was recently interviewed and offered a job at a local Kroger, and I'm currently waiting to hear back about my drug test. They (the recruiter) said that I would get an e-mail from Verification Inc.(?) about it, but I'm not sure if my sample needs to arrive at the facility first, or if the email comes firs...

This is just a rant/rave post; There's this woman who works accounting and front end (She does mostly anything front end and accounting) and she's just a d*ck. She's the kind of person who loudly tells you that your card declined or your check didn't go through on purpose just to piss you off. Numerous...

It's in my 'Home Depot schedule conflict' thread. Basically, their take is either I find someone to work the shift, work the shift, or don't come back. Wow. Just...wow.

Just curious if other stores have changed night stock shifts from 10 to 6 to midnight to 8. Most everyone I know on 3rd works it for a reason. I've worked 10 to 6 for the past 15 years so I can be home to get my kids off to school and be available to them for whatever reason. I'm told the shift change is " ne...

My store lost power at quarter to 6 today, Eastern time. There was a transformer that blew on the grid that connects to the store's power. I've never been there when the power went out so I really had no idea what to do. Luckily, I got off at 6 so I didn't really have to deal with it long. It was just weird.
