I used to get paid times in a half for holidays WHICH IS NORMAL! And this past Labor Day I only got paid $1 extra.... I called the union and apparently I'm on a new contract that agreed with the settlement... I don't ever recall accepting the offer or it being brought up to me. I paid so much for the union to on...

Hi all, So I recently got my schedule, and I just shook my head. Almost every week, my availability is entirely ignored to the point where I'm just thinking of leaving 30 minutes/an hour early. They continuously schedule me during classes, and this process has gone on for at least 4-5 weeks. I've talk...

I noticed in our local Kroger ad they have "Candy Crush Cookies" on sale in the bakery department. They're just the regular candy cookies we've always had. Can't Kroger ever come up with an original idea rather than try to take advantage of someone else's?

I started my first day of training for the night shift. The first thing that I did was stood with everyone after clocking in like being directed to after orientation.

Okay, so I finished dept. head training and will be placed soon. Do I have any say as to where I get placed, will they offer the placement and I chose to accept or decline thus not promoted if I decline, or do I not even have that option and they just tell me where I'm going and if I don't like it the only option i...

Everyone in my store thinks something is going on between them. He's always talking to her and helping her out in her department and it's so obvious that if there isn't anything creepy going on between them, he's at least picking favorites. She doesn't get most of her work done but she seems to think she...
