I'm a full time college student and have a really open availability for being in that position. I'm only unavailable two days of the week, and any other day I'm available from open to close. I was not getting enough hours in the department I was originally in, the floral dept (which is understandable),...

I've way more than read enough on here to know what I think of this so-called union...........part-to-NO-TIME-hours, fking minimum wage, open availability demands, virtually no protection from management abuse, memebership dues gouging, etc., etc. I'll say it again: I am FOR UNIONS. But I will...

So i am training to be a back up grocery mgr and then eventually a full on grocery mgr at some point. The training is mostly bookwork, several bullsh*t classes on leadership, and 4 hrs a week "on the job" training with an experienced grocery mgr. I've learned alot so far but the training doesn...

Have any of you been doing the safety pin thing? We have a safety pin with like 4 other safety pins on it and if you go past an employee and see that they don't say "hello" to a customer you are suppose to ask that employee for one of their safety pins to put on yours, and if they see you not saying &q...

Because I heard there were some people who were going to be hired at my store then got let go because they failed the background check. Then I've heard of other people who have a record and they work there no problem. Is ther...

So every week, as you may know, Kroger updates each worker's schedule for the next week. This is usually done on Saturday and I got my schedule for the next week yesterday. It showed all the days I was working and when I was of,f like it usually did. But today it doesn't show that I'm working any days at all...

A coworker of mine told me that grocery crews at several nearby stores, maybe the whole district, got their hours cut this week. We certainly did - we are now way under hours. And we could barely get trucks done before even with everyone working 40 hrs a week. Just wondering if anyone else has had this goi...

So I work for King Soopers, a Kroger subsidiary in Colorado, and our contract with the union is almost up so the company has really been stretching us thin. I'm technically just a checker/cashier but my store has me doing CC work, and maintenance around the store due to how few workers we actually have...

So I have been working at Kroger for a little over a year now as an overnight grocery clerk. Probably never would have taken this job if I'd known ahead of time just how stressful this job would be, but I guess that's another story. I started out at $8/hr and have gotten 2 $0.50 raises so that I am now making $...

It's been a pretty common belief for awhile now that Kroger is trying to limit full time status to as few positions as possible, like dept. head, assist. dept. head, and leads, and typically, overnight grocery is pretty good at hitting full time status, but when management isn't actively blocking da...

the city I live and work in is considering raising the minimum wage to anyone who's encountered this: is it probable that my pay rate won't be affected since I already make above the prospective minimum?

Am getting tired of microwavable noodles, wondering if y'all have any other quick but healthier (though, pretty much anything is healthier than sodium-in-a-box) choices. I don't have a car, so can't go to fast-food places, eat, and be back before the 30 minutes hits.
