I work for Jay C's but we still get our trucks from the same warehouses. The other night my manager and I almost got crushed by a pallet of cans because the truck wasn't backed up right. And because they wont fork out the cash to give us an electric jack. These pallets are outrageous, a lot of times I cant eve...

Mid South zone mangers and coordinators actually taking a load of dumpster garbage and seeing what was not marked down. Wow, how much longer does this company have?

Good morning all, I'm thinking about pursuing a career with Kroger as a Co manager. I'm trying to find out the cost for health benefits for non union management, as well as the paid time off schedule ( how much time after how many years, any floating holidays, etc.) Also, are there any stock options...

I posted awhile back about certain cell phone stories. Here is a new one going on at my store: We got a new manager about three months ago. Very nice older man, but an absolute idiot. I noticed a couple days after he started that his wife would call on his cell phone and he would answer it on the floor, obli...

So here's the deal...I've been with Kroger for about a year now. Right now I am a courtesy clerk and have been trying for the past 4 months to move up to register. I have done all the training and have my cashier numbers. About 3 weeks ago, my manager told me she would be putting me on the cashier schedule......

Too late for this year, but keep in mind for next August Employee Tracking Survey.... When you take the next survey, why not mark all the boxes "Don't know/Doesn't apply"? Or maybe mark more than one box for each question? Or, save yourself some time and not mark in any of the boxes. No d...

I walked past a co-manager's desk and noticed my Enterprise ID scribbled on a Post-It next to his keyboard. This is the same guy who sneaked into my department a few weeks ago to take photographs of "filthy" equipment to rat me out to corporate instead of talking to me directly about it. Yest...
