Today we have about 6 half full carts of go backs. And even though we have 2 other courtesies, they chose (UN)-lucky me to do them. My co-manager said he wanted ME to do them in one hour. (The other two courtesies were doing other tasks, lot duty and bagging). Plus I was on sweeps, doing price checks, servi...

We had a lady (in my line of course) walk out with her buggy full of items without paying. Long story short my printer ran out of receipt paper and it did that annoying thing where it refuses to let you back out or move on until you replace it, and I told the lady to just wait to finish her transaction until I co...

Okay here's the deal, I have worked for Kroger for going on 3 years and I recently transferred stores because I'm going to school in a different town. I was told that I needed to make a new availability for my new store and I was ok with that because of my new class schedule and stuff. My new availability was...

When I got the job they told me they would work with my availability however now they tell me I can only change my availability twice IN one yea...

How do you operate the salvage baler in Kroger? I was shown a step by step process on how to operate it during my WBL, but forgot! :/ Thanks.

I was hoping some of you could fill me in on the Management Training Program... About how much does someone in the program make? How much does a Co-Manager make? Once you complete the program are you placed into a role of Co-Manager or must you apply to open positions? Will you be a Co-Manager in the s...

My seniority was knocked down by 1 year giving my the pay classification of 1 year full time. In the contract it states "Effective May 19, 2002 part time employees who wo...

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...
