Really have two questions. What is the standard at your store for candy replenishment on the check stands? and who is supposed to be responsible for it the most? . In my store, it is apparently the overnight sco clerk's duty to do it. I recently got moved to overnight SCO, and most of the time I come i...

So my last lead resigned and the new one got fired, so I'm pretty much the last man standing with seniority that management doesn't hate. They're probably going to ask if I will be the lead (several managers have commented on it already), is it worth it? What are the responsibilities/stresses/etc?

Does anybody else feel awkward/nervous to go into your Kroger store on your day off? I always get nervous because I'm afraid that they'll ask me to work.

Question is...where do I pick the check up at; the service desk? And am I able to pick my check up on a day when I'm not working? I want to go and p...

I work in deli and were like the "worst" dept Kroger has (this is a proven fact, just ask our co-workers, the sales figures and our store management) No matter how much work they pile on we must get it all done using one/two person crews. That means that when someone is taking a break and custom...

I'm currently trying to work my way through school. I've got my availability set for three days per week, (Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday) as it's impossible for me to work any more than that. However, my manager has been scheduling me to work on Saturdays when it's very hard for me to be available. I hav...

Me and another guy were hired weeks apart at the same pay rate. I went full time at 2 years and have been full time for 3 years, while he stayed part time for 5 years. He now makes another $1.25 more than me doing less, working less, and less availability. I was penalized for going full time, while he's been t...

I start as a back-up on Sunday. I am currently maxed out for part time pay. I understand that the back-up position gets a $0.50 raise. I was wondering if i would get max pay for full time starting Sunday, or if i would have to work the 8 weeks straight at 40 hours before getting the full time rate? Is it a possi...
