Where I live we have a store called Food Depot. It is a chain of stores in Georgia. Not nowhere as big as Kroger but they could do better. I know someone who works there and they will not even cash employee checks. Also this person applied for low income housing and had to have somthing faxed to Food Depot's...

But now that the hours for cut fruit has been cut back the lady doing that wants my hours in produce. She has seniority over me but I feel it unfair since...

When Kroger hired me a month ago , they said you'll get between 12 and 24 hours a week. I've been putting in 36 to 38 hour weeks and last week I even put in 40. Now I'm not complaining I do enjoy the 200$ a week checks if you we're going to do this why not just make me full time ?

Ok, what's up with this? Our store is in its fourth week of the new e-schedule thing, and it's hard to decide how I feel about it. On one hand I'm happy, because I just spent three months straight working 11-8 on Saturdays, and I have been off two Saturdays in a row. On the other hand, it's crazy. It breaks th...

The division I work for is switching from ordering with a handheld gun to the computer doing it automatically. Can anyone explain how the system works. I order a department currently. Will this cut hours?

The following is a copy of a letter sent to the international office. I have to wonder if they ever follow up on complains. towards the locals. This is a case where they never did and the local 1000 rep and president failed to do their job as they are paid to do. Just believe that a number of their reps just...

I heard from my Csc that we get hours for baggers if we have non express lines open. Is that true. And if so how does it work we are always short on baggers.

On Monday afternoon I was printing off an order guide from the copy machine when I came across a fax/email that was probably not supposed to see. (I am not a tech person but I know our copier serves as a fax machine also) Anyhow the email was from Kroger office here in Indiana and it has "high priorit...

Now this is not about me or my local union. I have not had or seen problems like this in my local. But now in ufcw local 1000 , this is becomming common. Mr Burris and his reps will take months to contact anyone if they have a problem and need a rep. Now it seems that the international office is just as guilty of...

I was talking to a fellow employee today when the store manager stopped us and asked us if we knew what the 7x7 rule is. Were supposed to within 7 ft. and 7 seconds of seeing a customer, acknowledge them, make eye contact, ask if we can help and generally engage them. Well I told the manager I knew what it w...

Kroger is ''Customer 1st'', but the chicken count always seems to outweigh the customer because, ''the numbers 'have to be 100% correct' and always 'on time' '', like we're machines or something of the sort. Just another example of kroger's 'finite wisdom'.

I'm sure it's been talked about and covered numerous times on here, but how in the hell does this company expect us to to reach 80% (or better) on a daily basis and 95% green 1/2 hours with less and less hours each week? They (my division) consistently throws "The Pillars" of 1+1 success at us...

I just saw on KTV this morning that Kroger is now starting the process of phasing out the team stocking guides. Not sure how long it will be until it trickles down to every store.
