Earlier this week all of the paper towel and toilet paper dispensers in my store was replaced and today they replaced all the markdown printers with new wireless ones. Nothing was wrong with the paper dispensers and the old printers were in good shape. Last week the store finally fixed a drain probl...

So after being wrongfully terminated my union rep has issued me four weeks of back pay for time missed. He called my manager this morning and set it up, so I'm thinking it should go through on this coming weeks paycheck, so hopefully I'll get it Friday. I'd love to get it before Christmas. Anyone know how...

So here's the basics: I'm on the overnight grocery crew. My dept manager was stepped down from the position two years ago before regaining the position a few months ago. She orders more than we can put up in an 8 hour shift. Her solution to that is to try and get everyone to stay longer. My problem is that m...

So I'm a deli clerk. The last hired in my store. Wevw since lost 3 pt and 1 ft person. The reason given for no new hires is the low starting pay. I believe that completely. If we can't hire ppl doesn't this make the next year pure hell for workers? Without the union pay scale we could actually hire the p...

Krogers is so concerned about quevision, how about a problem they've been having for years, the customer service line? There are four cash registers up there but generally there's only one person ever working at a time. Maybe on a good day two. If someone in front of you starts a western union order or s...

I'm a front end supervisor, and was told by management that only men are allowed to push carts after sunset (which is like 5pm now), for "safety" reasons. This sounds ridiculously sexist and inefficient, do y'all know if this is Kroger policy or just the usual management dumbness?

We've had a peppermint overload in the bakery. We have 5 buckets of peppermint icing. We have peppermint brownies, peppermint cupcakes, peppermint bark, several varieties of peppermint cookies. We even have peppermint donuts. The only peppermint thing we don't have is peppermint bread.

Last month as I was getting about halfway through my probationary period, I was called and asked to change department from overnight grocery to produce, being told it was because "there weren't enough hours to give me in that department" a few days later, the manager told me that the rea...

Cut our hours but hire new people? Blow smoke up my ass constantly. I love my fellow department associates, and my department manager, but all upper management creep me out. When a manager can't spell clearance or management correctly I have mini break downs. When I'm told with my HR degree and work et...

So, I was curious about the high volume stores with multiple department heads for each department and how they work. Take grocery for example, how do they divvy up grocery manager responsibilities? It seems like it'd be a debacle. Having multiple people ordering, seems like conflicting opinio...

They were just concerned that about it being lost and I'm like nope, I know where it is. In the shredder. (s...

So we voted on the new contract a couple months ago. When we went to vote there was nothing in there about having a set day off.

So I get a call and was asked if I can stay later. Okay, that's not too bad because there would be one other person closing with me right? Except this one person called out. And no one else can work (or willing to work until 10pm). So guess who is going to have to make sure everything is clean...ALONE fo...

Can someone tell me why we're not allowed to decorate? I remember in the past Kroger would have tinsel all around the store and on every aisle. Each year we have done less than the year before and now we're not even allowed to put up stockings or a tree. We have a box for employees to put Christmas cards f...
