They have to honor your availability, right? Our front end manager just put up a notice saying that all students will be considered to have open availability until January. We're not a Christmas destination type store, you wouldn't need all of us on demand if you'd replace the 3 people who have quit in...

You ever forget someone's coupons and/or s/he hands them to you after you already tendered him/her out and they look at you like you're a frickin criminal? Dude, it's like 80 cents savings. If you cared about your coupons so much maybe you could have mentioned them before I told you to swipe your card. Y...

Can salary employees get in trouble for time theft?

JR78665 · JR78665

Am I the only one who has issues with the time clock? I put my log in information into the machine and follow the directions to put my index finger on the spot. The machine beeps back at me ,telling me my id cannot be verified. What am I doing wrong?

My store is always cold and it seems like the air conditioning is on instead of the heat. I was sitting in our break room yesterday, and a blast of icy cold air was coming from the vents. I was told that management had no control over this, and that the temperature is actually regulated from a central loc...

I am a assistant manager, and I'd like to say a few things: Courtesy Clerks: 1. When we call you to bag, we mean now. Not when you feel like it. Yes, I know we all have jobs to do, and whe you may be busy, you need to remember CUSTOMER FIRST. Without them, you'd be unemployed. So unless you are on a break, off t...

So what is the deal with vendors? The lady that hired me was telling me about all the different brands stocked by vendors. I had no idea so many things were brought in and stocked by outside companies. Are there many things in the Drug/GM dept. that are done by vendors? I found this interesting.

Hey all. I'm a grocery head clerk, and I make a one dollar premium above the top pay rate , and am full time. I was pretty much at the bottom pay rate before I got the head clerk position, and part time. If I step down after 1 year being head clerk, will I keep my f/t and top pay rate, just lose the premium? The re...

Well, after about 2.5 years of bouncing around at different jobs, I am now back working at Kroger. I remembered this forum and how I used to waste time on the store computer reading posts back in the day. So here I am. Back once again. This job is something easy I can do while going to school, so that's my exc...

This company makes a little under 2 BILLION a year and yet each and every year, or in the case of District Q, every new contract, they come up with ways of getting rid of full-timers and firing people willy nilly. This is a company I've spent 15 years of my life with, and credit them to pulling me off the stre...

I was told during orientation that as a part-timer in produce I would receive 1 blue shirt and an apron. I could buy additional blue shirts if I wanted for $8 a piece. Is this true and if so does one go thru the store or have to order them from some...

I went online to check my paystub and Kroger has screwed up my paycheck. This time they paid me 1 hour too much. I worked 7 hours on Thanksgiving Day, but was scheduled 8 hours. They let us go an hour early since the store closed at 4:00 pm and they had us scheduled until 5:00 pm. I clocked in and out that d...

antone who works in MS, do they schedule you according to seniority? Or mix it up? And does the CSC have the right to schedule you on your unavailable day?

I went through my interview and then went through the orientation for Drug/GM. I'm scheduled to be at the training center for the 2 training classes tomorrow at 8 AM. I'm doing both in one day. What should I expect for tomorrow? I've never worked for Kroger so I'm totally new.

Normally, I'd often come to the defence (yeah, defence) of courtesy clerks because of how much **** is rolled down towards them. Then, there's clerks like this guy: He just stood there for more or less 15 minutes while being on his phone. How do I know it was roughly 15 minutes? B...

My Boss needs an incident report about myself and another employee not getting along. I left a message for my rep but the Mgr. need this in 24 hours. What should I do.

How does the manager select what order the names are on the schedule? Is there a way to put the manager then back-up at the top and then list everyone else by seniority?
