I have worked at kroger for 4 yrs now part time. I have a full time job in the evenings that sometimes during the summer months requires me to stay so late that I have to call in that night that I will be a sent the following morning. During the summer it's not uncommon for me to miss upwards of 10 days in 3-4 mon...

What can I do? I see other people getting moved to the bakery, Donatos, or Starbucks (which are in the deli/bakery area so they take their workers from our shared pool of workers.) But no matter what I do, they won't move me. I'm a good worker and I've been there longer than most people, but whenever I ask t...

Well as a courtesy clerk I basically made $77 this past paycheck for 13 hours. Yea. And I look at eschedule today and have another 13 coming up next week. I'm sure it is because we have high schoolers working and that if I wait a few more weeks my hours might perk back up. They were going an average of 16 befor...

I recently went full time into the freezer, and got written up there because I didn't edit the order on the computer. The main problems I have with this is: A) I did not have a login to the computer. I asked for the login three times, was given the response from my manager. "ya I'll put the order in for...

As a bagger and with the union, I am guaranteed a minimum set smoking of hours per week. But lately I have been given LESS than the minimum amount. I have talked to management and that did as much good as lighting a wet match underwater. So what I'm wondering is this; I have been scheduled way under again. W...

I was told key retailing was 5 minutes per tote in Drug/GM. Seriously? A tote full of mascara and nail polish in little boxes that have to be opened, sticker & security strip put on them, then put on the shelf. In 5 minutes? Some totes have over 50 boxes in them. I'm sure they don't even account...

My store manager called me in to his office today, giving me this whole spiel about donating part of my ($7.75/wk) paycheck to the United Way, he had a form with my name on it and everything. I told him I can't donate this year, he grudgingly accepted and I had to put a zero in the amount box and sign it. Is thi...

Kroger is constantly chasing some number on some report. Out of stocks, ring tender, green 1/2 hours, key retailing audits, food safety. There is one number I am curious about that I bet they could track. I wonder what the Kroger Suicide rates are.

An employee who works on the front end came in to buy something and talk to a department manager who was on the clock. Both of them are very good friends and she stopped in to see how shes been. A supervisor who just clocked in ran straight up to her and said "You can't talk to her if she's on the clock, yo...

When it comes to MetLife, all I will say is if you can't say anything good, don't say anything at all !!! I've been off under doctors excuse since October. I have never missed being at work during any of the time I have been off. So long Kroger !

First of all... my store's nutrition department is not given enough hours. I can assume the same thing for the majority of other stores. Our nutrition lead tries but she always seems to be overwhelmed and never finishes her trucks. There's just two people in nutrition and almost always somebody help...

I know it is a rarity, but my status has changed from PT to FT. Already re enrolled my health insurance. Is there a rate increase as well?

It's in Express HR, under the Salary/Wage information. Just curious to know what Accrued Credited Quantity means.
