What's going on with schedules...? So, I noticed they added Saturday the new week's schedule... I've read others mentioning about it, but does anyone know why? And aside from that, what's with this new .50 hours thing? Usually, I work 6 hours with a 15 minute break somewhere in the middle... I'm loo...

have y'all heard this? "come see what we have to offer" on hiring day (might be tomorrow, idk) ....minimum wage is what we have to offer. If you didn't have PTSD before, you will now! These folks served their country and they're going to offer them minimum wage? That goes hand in hand wit...

I heard they're building a new Country Oven plant and they're going to be baking all our cookies once they get up and running. They're going to come in already packaged.

My local Kroger store has recently changed their hiring process to a 100% online only system. I spoke with the store manager today (who knows me) and asked him what I could do to speed the process along. He told me there's a "comment section" somewhere on the application site where I can writ...

it's cool that I can go look at my schedule but it'd be better if they'd post the whole dept. schedule so I'd know who I'll be bumping in the week and what days I'll get paid for that weren't scheduled correctly. It's not like it's private information, they post it for everyone to see at the store, so why no...

Hello. I Work in Drug/GM department. I was wondering if anyone can tell me why some items are ordered in? I am talking about items that have BOH above their MIN, with little to no movement history, and no specials going on. Say like BOH was 9, and MIN was 6, and ALLOC was 6, with 1 item sold in 7 days and 3 sol...

I've been working as a courtesy clerk/ utility for about two months now at my local Kroger's. I know I was one of the many new hires during that time, due to a major competitor in our area shutting down. As such, I got hired in specifically so I could start doing utility asap and bump some of the older utilit...

Thought it would be fun to have a thread that is dedicated solely to the awful crap you receive from the warehouse. Maybe we can vote on the worst stack job on the forum! Let's see what you've got! I know you've got pictures on your cell phone, pictures you were going to send to headquarters! You proba...

So the store has recently obtained 8 U-Scan robots divided into two clusters. We now have two podiums side by side and two iPads.The problem is that there is only ever one attendant scheduled at a given time.
