"I was told to do this, I was told to do that, this manager doesn't like me"... Etc, etc. Your career is what you make of it. If you complain and question everything that your superiors tell you to do then you will get nowhere in the real world. I don't care if what my boss tells me to do is retard...

So we recently had to take the associate OSAT survey. Last year my store got dead last in our zone. So when our managers their butt chewing over this, they told the zone manager we didn't understand the definitions. Such as we didn't understand what was mean by direct supervisor, management team, e...

Hi all- I have been out of the work force for about 20 years raising my kids. I am thinking of going to work at Kroger for some extra spending money. I can only work days - preferrably early mornings beginning at 7:15ish after my son leaves for school. I cannot work nights or weekends because he plays at a hi...

So I stumbled across this website, and frankly, I'm baffled. I work for Kroger's, and I love it. I used to work at McDonald's, it was hell. You're complaining because you start out at entry level wages and then, oh no, you have to work there for 5 years or so to top out? How horrible! Except not really. At Mc...

The company was great and in demand back in 1890 to 1995. Now it is saturated, and ran by money hungry douche bags. if you get hired, you will not make much to live on until you have been there over 5 years. There is no great benefits anymore, and as time progresses it will get worse. No one wants to work at a...

I was doing the REQUIRED store sweeps when assigned when the FE supervisor called ME, NOT the other two courtesies on duty to put away 2 OVERFLOWING carts. Many were perishables. So I called them on it. Their response "is there a problem? Shall we take it to management?" We did, and I was sent...

I went in today and gave the assistant FES my two weeks' notice. Classes are about to start so I'd rather be studying than saying the same lines over and over. It's been quite a year with Kroger, and there's been plenty of great and awesome people I'd love to work with, as well as idiots and asses who I'd r...

Im new to kroger, but have worked hard and impressed quite a few people. I believe I'm being considered to become a checker, but I honestly have no clue who the checkers are in the store or what they do. Can someone tell me what checkers do, and what the pay usually is. I assume it's more than a bagger.

Anyone with the health insurance know what this means? The last two pay periods, they have been deducting $5.60, listed as "HEALTH COPAY" in addition to the $10.00 for family coverage and the $12.75 union dues. I can't find any other threads on this and have no idea why the additional $5.60...

I called the assistant manager th...

I was recently hired for overnight stocking. I filled out a bunch of paperwork after the drug test came back with the front end manager, and she enrolled me into a new hire orientation class. I never knew when it was though. I've already done 2 days of computer training, some training with the grocer...

The current kroger employee shirt is black, due to some refresh program? do we need to place the name tag under the logo? or on the opposite side? where the name tag would appear to be placed on the left side of the shirt that people would see? thank you [img]http://s30.postimg.org/oqvxt9n1t/kmkm.pn...

it feels like a lost cause. inevitably we'll have one lane that goes red for 3 minutes and that half hour is lost even if everything else is green. makes no sense. why judge the entire front end's half hour pass/fail performance on 5 minutes in one lane? it's pissing us off. management doesn't even...

Am I the only one waiting for the day kroger realizes the damage this system does to other departments and does away with it all together.

Well if it's not obvious by now I am a courtesy clerk and thus work Front End. So I am a glorified bagger at $7.25 an hour (whee) lately making $80 a week with 13 hours. Sucks. To get my mind off of that, was wondering how much those on Front End -- or any department for that matter -- have seen go through a check...

So, as you all know, I was asked to work today even though it's my day off. This morning at about 11:30, I got a call from Kroger. I didn't answer it because I wasn't near my phone, but they left me a voicemail asking if I could come in at 12:30 or any time before 5 (The time that I chose to take). No. Just no. It's...
