So here in the Atlanta market, about a month or so ago we courtesy clerks 'lost' our cooler of water by the main entrance. Yea. So we're back to paying for our own drinks (Gatorade, Kickstarter, bottled Kroger-brand water, etc.) to help keep hydrated and cool while bringing in those goddamned shoppin...

Did you know that now you can type in anyone's name and find out what store they work in? I'm not sure if that's cool or creepy. I mean, it's nice you can find out what store former employees went to, but it seems stalker-y too. lol

So one day while I was on lot duty I was informed that I was wrote up on an SI for not having a cart strap while I was on lot. The thing is I keep the strap in the lobby in case I have a large load. But instead I apparently have to carry the damn thing with me and use it if I have more than one cart per load. I am sick and t...

Ive been working my ass off as a bagger for a year, asking every manager weve had if i can be moved to another department, each one says something like "uh next time a position opens up ill see" which is obvious bull**** because they hire someone new the next day around the same age as me. What t...

This isn't the kind of question a person asks around the store, so I thought maybe I'd ask here since I thought I recalled reading a post pertaining to this at one point, and if nobody knows, that's fine... I'll probably still end up quitting anyway if I get the job offer I hope to get, but if a person gives t...

My home dryer is on the fritz. Needs a new heating coil. I had someone come over and examine it, which is how we (this person and myself) determined it was a heating coil issue. Well. If anyone working at Kroger knows Front End -- and you have my sympathy if you do -- you know that the parking lot duty is hot,...

A CSM told me today to take off my sweater. Her exact words were: "That needs to be taken off. You can't wear it inside." I've worn the same sweater all day, every day and nobody ever said a word, not even the store manager. She also told a cashier the same thing. I wore the sweater ALL day and it t...

Our co managers nickname is Hitler. I think this nickname was given to her when she worked at another store but follows her wherever she goes.

They basically encourage the customers to give feedback. The cashier whose name appears the most by a certain date gets Thanksgiving Da...
