Within the next few weeks, a total of 3 baggers are gonna be promoted to other departments. I'm not one of them, but I do think I'm definitely worthy of one sometime in the future. Are there certain things that store management is looking for from baggers in order to promote them?

Today they put a sign on every register that basically says "Now hiring smiling faces, up to $13.20 depending on experience." After we were all done guffawing, I realized that this really offends and embarasses me. It really makes me angry. To stick that on a register where someone is sta...

Can you be written up for not working overtime? At my store management constantly tells us that we have to work until the entire truck is run and store conditioned or we will be written up. We are very short-handed and have some very lazy full timers who will waste the night on their aisles. I have heard di...

After almost 38 years with this company, I'm retiring soon. To paraphrase an old poem, "It was the best of times. It was the worst of times." With all due concern, this company REALLY needs to train their employees the way they use to. It's said they don't have the time or the money to invest in...

Just started working at Kroger recently, No one has showed me how to use the time clock at all. All I know is what the computer training taught me, but does someone have to install you into the system or what?

Is there a user manual available for the Symbol Technologies RC9000 type 21-64436 barcode scanner that we use? It would be much easier to learn how to use the thing if there were one.

Its been three years since I have worked at Kroger and probably the same length of time since I have been here on the forums. I still have the high score in Pac-Man in the arcade section. Don't imagine anyone will be beating it anytime soon if they haven't been able to do it in 3 years. Whats up guys?

When a paper slip roll runs out in the machines is there any way that we can punch in a new slip using the numbered keypad? It seems kinda ridiculous to send them to customer service. Occasionally we'll have the slip inproperly printed because of it being out of paper. Sometimes the customer service peo...

I know the obvious ones, like keeping uncooked stuff separate from cooked things and softer items on top, but what are some of the key rules when it comes to bagging? Like what combinations (though they may seem safe) should I avoid?
