I was brought in today for my orientation and when it came to do the online stuff I couldn't do it because I wasn't even showing up in the system as a new hire. I received my welcome letter from Kroger and prompted to goto the onboarding portal and all i had to do there was create a password, but as I said I wasn...

Meanwhile employees getting screwed harder and the public says "oh you have a union jobs, great wages, good benefits." Half of walmart is full of happy ex kroger employees. Even if their benefits suck, doesn't matter anyway if you can't afford to use them. Had a customer one time tell me &q...

A courtesy clerk that has worked with me for over a year was finally caught slacking off and hiding in the bathroom. I heard she was taken to the store manager's office for a meeting. Does this mean she's fired? She does nothing at work but flirt and maybe bags for about 20 minutes before going off and hid...

Is the meat dept suppose to grind up meat when customers request them to or not ? We have chuck roasts on sale and I recommended to a customer to ask to have it ground up, meat guy refused with several strange excuses.......

It doesn't happen often, but occasionally someone gives me a tip for helping them out to their car. I've heard that we're not supposed to take tips from customers. Usually when I try to refuse a tip though the customers will throw it into the cart and walk away. What should I do?

What do you do if you have a slightly less than optimal grocery experience? Go bitch about it like it is the end of the world. Here are some of my favorites: "Why are some Krogers still doubling - while the ones in Ohio have stopped? I thought all Krogers were going to stop doubling. It doesn't se...

Our store (Columbus Division) has had four VERY late trucks in a row, and several more in the past couple of weeks. Is this happening to all the stores in the division? How are you all dealing with it?

The other day I saw a black walking down the street while carrying a flat-screen TV. I thought, 'Oh, shoot, that looks a lot like mine.' Then I realized it can't be mine -- mine's home shining my shoes.

Just had a question regarding union dues.. this might be something I should call my rep. for but I figured asking here is worth a shot. I'm requesting the next 2 weeks off but not using any PH or vacation time. Since I'm working hours do I still need to pay the union dues for the next 2 weeks? I'm only workin...

So how many people have had customers say that they will call corporate and have had anything happen? I had to stay an extra 10-15 mins at self checkout because this lady was taking forever with her groceries, already knowing we had closed the store. When she was finished she told me "Oh don't be...

I say "supposedly" because I can't independently confirm whether this is true or not. However, a discussion I had with our store's union steward revealed that not once, but twice, the union has asked for representatives from the Kroger Company to come to the table to discuss pay rate incr...

Hello all. About a month and a half ago, I applied to Kroger. I'd seen tons of Now Hiring! signs in every window of the dozens of Krogers in my area and I figured if they were promoting that heavily, they were hungry for workers. I'm hungry for work. Hard work, too. I chose 'Overnight Stocker' on my applica...

I've heard that several stores are being threatened with write ups for department heads for out of stocks. Is this allowed? What about stores with unions?
