Hi, I've recently inquired about getting into this position. I would like a little info about how the accounting process goes down and what things I should prepare for. If anyone has any experience please state what it's like and your likes/dislikes about the position.

Is there a way I can make a complaint about a co-worker in a more anonymous way? I'm not a higher up, he's at my level so I can't really bitch to him about not getting something done and expect it to work. This worker in particular hasn't been keeping up with his responsibilities for a while and it has crea...

About five or six years ago I saved a ferral cat in my store. It was in the store for about two weeks, I was working on the night crew stocking and the first time I saw the cat it was running around in the Deli. Nobody could catch it, and one night it ran past me and jumped under an isle end cap, so I made my move a...

In the meetings apparently the said human resources personnel representing Kroger will step outside of the meeting with one of the lead negotiations for the union and talk outside the m...

You know the display of phones at the service desk ? Somebody stole one of the phones .... No retailer is going to display a real phone .. And if they did it surely wouldn't be on Velcro .

Can someone please explain to me why the dept heads flip out if you don't take your vacation or personal days? I hardly ever use mine and sure enough I'm having my ass rode about it.

Here we are at the end of the year, and at my store they have spent a good chunk of money on trash cans bolted to the cart stalls. Seems to me that they are trying to get a tax write off or something? In 8 years I've never heard of any store having trash cans on the cart stall, nor have I heard of any demand for th...

Is it true that you're not allowed to take your break in your final hour? I'm stuck behind a bunch of people who apparently hate taking their breaks, but whine if you ask to go on break ahead of them "I was here first and I haven't had mine yet!" (they usually end up not taking them at all.) I go on...

Does anyone know how long short term disability lasts, and is it paid by the company or the union?

I can't believe the Christmas Party is now up to $25 with no couple discounts, yet serving the same food year after year. If we're paying $25 let's bring on the steak seriously!

Ok, the majority of the cashiers at my store are good people to work with. But there are some that think that they're the sh** and they'll want you bagging the way that THEY want you to bag. I'm a bagger and I never teach you guys on how to be a cashier. Don't give me this "I've been working here 35 years...
