How bad of a job do you have to do before getting demoted? I ask because my manager is constantly telling me how I'm not fast enough or work well enough in my department. How do you define "going fast" and "doing a good job" anyhow?

ConfusedEmployee?

I was hired by Kroger back in late May/early June. I completed the CBTs and the classes, but never went through cashier training because of extenuating circumstances and a broken ankle and I won't be recovered until mid October. Also I was never given any contact information and my store was not curre...

Is it because we are the lowest pieces of crap in the company and are never appreciated?

Yesterday my manager was showing me how to do something on the register and he put the register in training mode. Does anyone know how to do this? I want to know because I like knowing everything about the registers and messing around with them when I don't have a customer.

If this whole Obama care thing may not start till sometime 2015, then why are all the part timers getting their hours cut? At this point the Obama care might not even happen. Is there any other reasons why Kroger would gouge us out of hours? If this does take effect, what would be the point of a union? I thou...

Out of sheer curiosity, have any of you ever heard of a manager OF ANY COMPANY (I'm not singling out just Kroger here) that ever refused a bonus, based on the fact that there were certain things he or she just would NOT do in order to obtain it? Is that even possible? Or is that just not an option in this moder...

No one sees or cares about the 50 banners we have in the store. Our store is cluttered enough without those huge things in the way. Customers think the t-shirts are a joke and no one reads them. As if the customers have to be told by a t-shirt to ask us a question.The prices are nothing special while the qual...

To start, my store in Louisville, KY is the highest volume store in the Mid-south Division of Kroger. I thought it would be nice to do something different after the company I worked for closed due to the owner retiring and a lack of work in that field, (I did finish grading and drainage problems on new ho...
