I have a few questions regarding sick days. Are you only allowed just three instances within a 90 day period? I called in sick today because I have a cold, but I also have jury duty next week and I'm also scheduled to have dental surgery a month from now. Would jury duty count as an instance or would it be exc...

I went into my local Krogers the other day to buy some chips for a party. They redid the whole store layout and I couldn't find anything! I couldn't find any employees to help me either! So I had to go to the meat department to get help. But the butcher was helping someone with steaks, so I had to WAIT FOR 3 M...

Can you leave 15 minutes early instead?

I went to my store on my day off yesterday to pick up a prescription, but since my new doctor is closer to the store I got there before it was ready. Since I had a few minutes to spare I went over to see what was going on in the deli. Wish I hadn't. I see that the lady who opened was in a grouchy mood and the lady do...

So just got my background check packet in the mail and the grade had a flag not clear for hire, so does that mean I failed? Or do I still have a chance. I've heard of people getting a flag saying do not hire so why I'm wondering if I had a chance?

Time and time again on this forum people ask for advice and it's difficult to help without knowing your contract. If you join the union, get a copy of the contract. Learn the contract. If you have questions ask your store steward. You cannot expect Kroger to abide by the contract, it's not convenie...

Management wanted me to take a trial run on the pricing team. I currently work on the front end as a bagger in my store but I asked management if I can do both at the same time for more hours and they said yes. Any experiences on the pricing team? From what I understand the department is relatively easy.

How do u print those temporary shelf labels with the RF and the portable printer if the original tags were damaged or ripped off by a customer?

My store lost power at quarter to 6 today, Eastern time. There was a transformer that blew on the grid that connects to the store's power. I've never been there when the power went out so I really had no idea what to do. Luckily, I got off at 6 so I didn't really have to deal with it long. It was just weird.

The store that I work at was supposed to have a remodel. Now 2 weeks before the remodel we're told that it is on hold. they came and measured everything and had the plans. We were telling customers about this and was excited .Since it's on hold I know that means were not getting a remodel anymore. So how...

Hey guys, So I see on many of these posts that a lot of you work in Kroger stores that are part of the union, with pay that is lower than minimum wage or just bad. Does anybody else work at a Smith's? I don't know if it's like this everywhere, but the pay scale at our store is awesome... Baggers start at $8.25...

Just curious if other stores have changed night stock shifts from 10 to 6 to midnight to 8. Most everyone I know on 3rd works it for a reason. I've worked 10 to 6 for the past 15 years so I can be home to get my kids off to school and be available to them for whatever reason. I'm told the shift change is " ne...

I was recently interviewed and offered a job at a local Kroger, and I'm currently waiting to hear back about my drug test. They (the recruiter) said that I would get an e-mail from Verification Inc.(?) about it, but I'm not sure if my sample needs to arrive at the facility first, or if the email comes firs...
