I was hired as overnight stocker in 2007 and walked out in the middle of my shift, never to return. My discount card worked for six more months. There was a note by my schedule that said to see the manager for my schedule. I only worked here about a week.

Kroger has this brilliant new idea that every employee in the meat department be trained to cut. I would have no problem with this but they also said we would be given NO raises for the extra work. I'm not cutting **** unless I'm paid as a cutter. They said if I refuse to cut I can be fired. I say bring it on.

So I heard that next week in the deli very few people are getting more than 30 hours next week and some days one person will do chicken half the day and another the other half. We finally are getting were we can get the 5-6 people we need a day, yet the hours are being cut and were being spread too thin. Why hi...

There's a really nice responsible bagger at our store who goes out of his way to help us all the time. He never missed a single shift or called in. A manager caught him smoking a cigarette on his break and wants to fire him. Can they do that? He tells us that he'll be of age in 9 months and claimed family buys th...

I transferred to Drug/GM Sunday. I'm having my doubts about it. I'm back working nights again and 10 to 15 hours less a week. The workload is overwhelming. My back is killing me and I ache all over. I guess the worst that could happen is they put me back as cashier if I can't do the work. I'm so tired o...

Curious. It doesn't seem fair and surely favoritism will take place.

New employee here: One shirt? That's it? What.... I mean, are we allowed to buy extras out of our own pocket? I can't do laundry every night.

So, I have a bit of a problem (I mostly just wanna rant somewhere, and also maybe hopefully get some help, if anyone has any to offer). My unit manager offered me Assistant manager of grocery (I've only been here for 8 months). And I've only been training in grocery for five days so far. And the grocery ma...

Must be something wrong with me working in retail and hating customers. But they suck. They are lazy and stupid. Who the hell goes to a grocery store looking for a box fan? Get the whole store riled up and then, "oh, those 20 inch fans are too big. I'm going to home depot". And how about, "U...

I work at Columbus / Kroger bakery and I swear the management in place is doing their damnest to shut the place down. It all starts at CEO & COB positions.

I've been at Kroger for about a year and have recently been promoted to the position of front end supervisor. While it's not an extremely hard job, it does come with a lot of added responsibility, and apparently no compensation. I'm still making the same ****ty 7.70 I was making to ring orders and bag gr...
