Hello all... This is probably a really dumb question considering (and assuming) all of you actually got hired and are working at Kroger or have worked at Kroger. I got hired at McDonald's early December because I was desperate and they have zero standards and don't need references or work histor...

HOW IMPORTANT IS IT, TO ENTER THE EXACT BIRTHDAY OF SOMEONE PURCHASING ALCOHOL ?

For me it's gotta be a tie between 11-7 and 12-8. For me it's because these shifts feel so more longer than any other shift, especially in the winter.

Went to get my schedule this week and I only got 28 hours again! Not too many people with less senority got more hours than me. Most of the employees under me got 25 or less. When I counted the names on our schedule the other day we had 106 people and they are still hiring!

store815 · Anonymous

why do kroger ask on their application about times available to work, you fill in the blank with the numbers, some blok hire you with these availabilties and it works fine for a month, then suddenly they can longer work with it and are uncompromising about it. Can't they be forced to honor these availa...

I haven't been offered another job yet, but I'm looking and there's one i'm close to getting, I think. When I put in my notice, would I be able to also ask for my vacation week for this year before I leave? Also should I stick with two weeks plus vacation week for notice or just one due to kroger's putting out...

I hear they used to be cool, way back in the day... But everyone I've ever known who's tried to work at a Kroger has quit because they just couldn't stand working there. I tried working there myself, but I quit because I got tired of being treated like a slave, essentially. So why has Kroger turned into t...

I want a second job at nights but I know kroger has a thing in the rule book about how you can face termination for working at another grocery store , does anyone actually follow this or do they do that to scare you ?

My store is about to open a fuel center. One issue is that it's half a mile from the store down a neighborhood street where they won't get any business. I'm a cashier who is a bit tired of things. How is working the fuel center? Would you recommend it? Will the terrible location have an adverse impact on...

I've been working for Kroger on the Night Stock crew, but it's totally not what I signed up for. I was told I would be working 17-30 hours a week, but I'm averaging 45 hours. Some nights they have me work 8 hours, go home for a few hours, then come back and work another 8 hours. They hate it when I call in bec...

I hate how every other day I'm scheduled to work and the time clock won't let me in. They (the csms)are not bitchy about punching me in, it's just I hate dealing with a problem that can be easily avoided.

My deli's getting a new kind of meat and we all have to take a mandatory, 4 week training course or else we can't get certified and can't work in the deli anymore. They fall on my class times and I don't know what to do. I told the manager that and he said I have to be there for them. I'm paying thousands of doll...

A while back I was demoted from Clerk to Utility Clerk by choice to have more hours. Now i've been trying to get promoted back and I've been given a hard time about it. I read on here about someone being demoted and having to sign something to make it official but I was never asked to sign anything. So was the...
