Hello everyone. I've been a Kroger employee for about 2 years so I've heard a lot of the same songs over and over again. Some of them I've come to like, however, there are some I can't seem to find even if I put the lyrics in on Youtube or Google. The first song lyrics started out like (Male Vocals): "I m...

I don't know if you all have seen this making the rounds on FB but there is a multi-post of meme's explaining The World Economy with Two Cows. This is the American Corporation and it is dead on (no pun intended).

Figured we could have a topic for comments, questions, funny or crappy experiences on self checkout. Today was my first official shift (8 hours, whew!) on U-Scan, or Self-Checkout (Express!). Prior to today, I had roughly two hours or so of training (about 2-3 months ago) before my official promoti...

We get a mystery shop last Sunday. We were all informed of our manager being killed and his son being critically injured 2 days before. There's a beautiful memorial of our manager right when you walk in the door. We failed miserably. Everyone was still in shock. I understand business must go on, but how...

Some of the logic that this company is ran on makes me want to rip out my hair. My store is the worst in our district for overtime, but also has the most amount of relief cashier hours (57ish, more than a store twice our size with only 12 hours). For some reason no one can see the logic in that. Now overtime is f...

Hey guys, I just got hired as a courtesy clerk at frys in Gilbert Arizona. They mentioned a white button up shirt to me that I have to wear. I just don't know if it's for orientation or my first day at work. I already passed my interview and drug test, so I am hired. But I've looked everywhere to see if that whi...

I spent many, many years detesting how Wal-Mart was such a lousy store and bad for other businesses. I also delighted in singing Kroger's praises and trying to get Wal-Mart shoppers to convert. I spent many thousands in Kroger's stores for at least 10 years, probably more. Then I went to work for Kroge...

I have orientation tomorrow for a cashier position but have a few quick questions. 1. What does orientation entail? What should I expect to be covered at orientation? 2. What should I wear to the orientation? I know I will likely receive my uniform tomorrow but I'm debating on whether I should wear eve...

Summer vacation is nearing its end and with that, a major percentage of the Kroger workforce is about to limit/restrict their hours/days as kids return to school/college. This is going to compound and already bad situation as despite having numerous "City Wide" hiring events over the s...

Whenever I try to open Yodel networking on the Kroger onboarding website on Google, it just pops up for a second and then it dissapears. Does anybody know what's causing this and how to fix it?

I had an over the phone interview and was told to come in the following Monday. I went in on the closest Kroger store and I had to sign some forms and get a drug test. The woman who gave me all of this, told me to come in for orientation on the following Saturday and that she would give me information regarding...
