Okay, so, a little backstory first. I first was hired at Kroger in July 2010 as a bagger making $7.35/hr starting and worked there through the summer after I graduated high school. I quit in August 2012 making $8.10/hr to go to college an hour away. I didn't want to quit, but I was told that the whole "...

Today when I was breaking down the bakery frozen food order, I came across an empty box which had not been opened. It said, "Empty box" on the side. Why?

Could someone please tell me about a energy transfer letter? What does it say and how can I request one? I am part time and signed a bid for a full time position at a different Kroger location. I've been working for Kroger for 5 years now and want to become full time. I was denied because another employe...

If you are part time, can you possibly get extra hours by helping out other departments? Of course, this would have to be after you completed your hours in your own. How would this work?

Hi, Does anyone know how long it takes to receive your final email that you have been On-Boarded? I had my "Group Interview" last Wednesday. I did the background check (filled online the previous week, after setting up interview time) and drug test (the day of the interview). How long did...

I have worked for Kroger at Dillons for six years, never been written up for anything. I transferred to another store last year and recently I got trained as an FES. Sometimes when we get really busy I open a register and call management to help watch the front. The other FES's do this too and it doesn't se...

This is kind of a silly rant, but i wanted to know if this happens to anyone else. Sometimes a customer will stand right by me as i'm bagging their groceries. I find it it silly and annoying at the same time. I could understand if they were helping me bag but they aren't even monitoring my bagging, just lo...

Wht can we do about the flies at my store? Whenever I go on lunch I usually would buy my lunch from the deli. I went back to the deli and there were so many flies buzzing around the food. Some would land on the food but the employees dont care, they would just fan the flies away and keep serving. Same with baker...

TODAY I had a fun experience. It went like this: 1. I see cashier has no bagger. 2. I go to assist cashier as a bagger. 3. Customer wants to use the 3 for $10 deal on Coca-Cola products. Trouble is, she wants a Dr. Pepper. 4. Cashier asks me to go bring a Dr. Pepper (these are the 12-packs). I do. 5. Pause. Cashi...

I began receiving full time benefits 6/1 after 12 consecutive weeks at 30+ hrs. I got a letter today stating I have been reduced to part time coverage 8/1. My hours haven't changed. I went to a dentist to get a treatment plan for restorative treatment. Is that why my insurance was changed?

I think this unusually; however, I haven't worked an hourly paid position in some time. I applied and accepted a part time position with Kroger as a Cashier. During the interview, the administrative manager told me that due to my experience I would not start at min wage, which is $7.25 where we live. Co...

One of those red electric carts has been ' dead ' for about a month now. Since our carts have numbers, we 'courtesy clerks' who have to deal with the damn things know exactly which one. And since its battery is seemingly dead, we also always know where it is located. Trouble being, it's located in the sec...
