And in the few meetings so far, Koger has been(according to our union rep) ugly. Anyone out there heard anything? Also if we were to go on strike, could we do any work while...

Payday is on Thursday at my store. I'm always off on Thursdays. I don't go near the store unless I'm really desperate. I wait and get mine on Friday. Never fails though there are a good 50 people who come strolling in the store to get their check. WTF is wrong with these people? It's your day off and y...

I am trying to get a part time job at a local Kroger here in Michigan. I only need to work 20 to 24 hours max per week. I do have a limited schedule where I can only work four days per week. Will Kroger just give me the 12 hour minimum or can I get at least 20 hours working Friday thru Monday ?

My boss told me I can not take off 2 days unpaid because I am FT. Is this true? I was hired in 1995.

If I work 1/2 hour to 1 1/2 hours over an 8 shift, am I supposed to be given an extra 15 min break?

My department head is getting rediculous. Yesterday he was bitching about the truck not being done. The truck was two hours late, hours were cut more than usual. Last night we were short handed as we always are on saturday night. We left an aisle and a half and blue totes unfinished. Now here is the good p...

I have been with Kroger little bit now and I recently finished my degree in IT/Networking and I remember being told when I was first hired that Kroger has an IT department and as an employee it might be easier for me to move into a position working there.

I feel like a complete newb even though I've been with kroger for a few months now. I'm reading all these topics about 'checking your contract' and 'read your union book' and I feel like I'm part of a different company because I've never received a union book and have no idea how to access my contract. Is i...
