I recently stepped down as a lead clerk after being one for 5 years. I expected to lose the 50 cent premium pay for being a lead clerk. I did not expect to also lose my reclassification pay I had gotten 5 years earlier. Does anyone know Krogers policy on this?

I ask the question because my managers are followers of key retailing and find absolutely no faults with it. I think if Wave 9638 asked for a human sacrifice, these management fools would call it a good idea and offer their children to fulfill the blood hunger of the Kroger gods.

I have had 20 consecutive weeks in a row of working 40 hours a week. Now they want to cut me back to 30 hours a week. Does anyone know how many weeks you have to work consecutively of 40 hours to be mandated full time?

Walmart has a choir. And apparently they paid for all the employees in the choir to go out to a hotel to record a CD, and paid for their meals. Who would want this? And more importantly when is Kroger getting one?

I worked for the company for over five years And had been harassed, called a liar, treated unfairly , and most recently written up for being a tiny bit late while others were over two hours late including a manager. I finally had enough...

2 assistant managers love to make a deal about store sweeps being 28 and 29 minutes. We at our store now have to log the sweeps and bathroom checks on the clock. So I had a few that was maybe 2 minutes under. It was just an honest mistake. They are sussposed to be 30 minutes. One was like 28 and one was 29. It was...

Hi I got kicked out of the service desk because I did no fill out our money order log ( did not know we had one) when my customer got 3000 dollars in money orders, and because I lost us 150 dollars on a lottery ticket I did not cancel in time. Do you think if I talk to my store manager and ask for forgiveness, and a...

When I was filling out the paperwork, I noticed a form that had a header indicating it was a union form, and when I asked if I had to join the union I was told by the person (co-manager I bel...

Long story short, I was fired in 2008 after 4 weeks right before my probation period was going to end. I was called to the managers office where he said that I was too slow checking out, and said it "wasn't a good fit, and honestly you easily could have slipped through the cracks and made it off probat...

1. I have training tomorrow and was wondering if the badge or employee number is what we use to sign in for shifts? 2. How and when do we sign up for the union? 3. I'm specifically a produce clerk and was wondering what the job is like from other produce clerks? (ie. hours, working environment etc.)

Just wondering if that's allowed? I'm pretty sick but I think the manager is going to give me a hard time. I don't call off a lot, but I did call off once a little under 2 months ago. I was just wondering if they could say no, you have to come in?
