I'm not really nervous persay working on Saint Patrick's day, but I was wondering if anyone (customer or coworker) has taken tradition too literally and pinched you? Since I really hate people touching me without permission, and if people try to pinch me I'd probably cry. Especially since this one g...

Nothing irritates me more than people parking in front of the cart corrals. How the hell are we supposed to get carts when some idiot is parked in front of them? Some people are just morons.

Hi guys, Long time reader, first time poster. I wanted to introduce myself. I worked for King Soopers for 7 years. I left in mid December of 2014 and have not looked back. I was the General Merchandise Manager for a large store that did 1+ million a week. I left the company as I felt Kroger in general is head...

Is successor training required for a department head position?

FrontEndSlave · FrontEndSlave

Yep Front End is scheduling meetings this week and next. And some of those meetings will be during the courtesy clerk's and cashier's shifts. As if it is bad enough we never have enough baggers or people to bag, now we are going to be short some staff for what - at least 30 minutes, probably? All for 'Make i...

For about a year I was breaking down the grocery truck with another stocker, but it was not the same guy all of the time, because they would quit and this one guy transferred to another store. Well I had to come in 2 hours before the night crew and break it down and then stock my aisles, and I could never get i...

I was looking at the schedule in the break room and noticed that one of our full timers is working less than 40 hours a week. How can you be listed as full time and work only 24 hours a week? It wasn't only this week.

Home Depot called this morning. Need to bring my social security card and driver's license to them tomorrow morning. After that, it's orientation -- I work Saturday but if I can get it off somehow (call out?) I can attend orientation. Then it's basically a combination of being on the 'lot training w...

My store is having a remodel in a month or so. I assume we're closing down because I heard there'a a re-opening. So I'm just wondering, what happens to courtesy clerks during that time? Thanks.

Almost everybody in my department seem to be disinterested and crass with their words and humor. Also this isn't just teenagers, it's full aged adults participating in some sick humor. I don't say anything... but a "retard seizure" joke pushed me really off. How do you handle co wor...

So after being harassed by the union rep a couple months ago, I finally decided to join the union so the rep would leave me the hell alone and the rep told me it'd be a 70 dollar initiation fee and 7.45 member fee each week. Well after 7 weeks of them taking ten dollars out each week, I finally hit the seventy d...

It's a good thing I actually don't need the hours, or I'd be steamed over this. Still, this strikes me as odd. Two of my days for this week are marked as "Time Off Approved" on e-Schedule. Thing is, I never put in any such requests. In fact, looking at the "Date Submitted" column of t...

For three months, I was looking for a job intensely. Within that time period, only kroger offered me a job. I took the job even though it was in a department I barely know about. I've been at kroger for about 2 months. So far its been ok.... however I just got a new job offer at my dream job. What should I do? ...
