My last vacation of the year has come to and end and I don't get another one for 3 months. I know some people say that if they're off for a while they can't wait to get back to work. I don't think I could ever have that problem. I still have 20 years before I can collect Social Security but I'm ready to reti...

So I've been working as a cashier and u-scan attendent for about 6 months now. It's alright. Anyway, the opportunity has arisen for me to transfer to the pharmacy (the lady that hired me is pissed, but I hate her anyway). I am a biology student and I feel that having worked in a pharmacy would look a little...

He comes back finishes sweeping and runs the scrubber. Then about 2 am he leaves for about 45 minutes comes back and buffs. Sometimes I think he thinks...

this is wrong because at kroger it's like this 7.25 an hour starting out. This "union" company pays LESS than their non-union competition They don't even tell you what the pay is until AFTER you accepted the position. So basically, if you're on unemployment and you accept the positi...

I've been with Kroger for 3 years since July, and hit full time about 3-4 months ago. I've been told by several other employees that I should have recieved a second vacation on my 3rd anniversary, but I haven't and HR can't even tell me (she's a nut). They were renegotiating the union contract not too lon...

I upset a fellow co-worker today and he said "I'm going to murder you." At the time I was too busy trying to work out the issue but after talking to some friends they think I should go to management... I'm pretty sure it was a heat of the moment thing. I apologized for my oversight that had inconv...

Do they really give health insurance? I am a 19 month employee and have been jacked around about my insurance. No one seems to know when you get it and what you have. I've been told for months that I already have it but have never received any paperwork to sign . I've spoke to the store manager, benefit...

we are having our Inventory on December 1st. Could there possibly be a worse time to have it? We still have tons of Thanksgiving backstock and we are still getting Christmas stuff

Have they made any changes to the ELMS formula? I have noticed in the past year, that it is getting harder to make ELMS, specifically with items that have a large quantities (such as someone having 40 Kool-Aid packets). These orders used to bring my ELMS sky high. Now, I am lucky to get over 100%.

Can management really tell me that i need to cut my hair. I am a male and I wanted to grow my hair out to an average 80's power metal level or axl rose level. Also can they prevent me from growing out my beard to a zach galifinakis level, not a zz top just a zach galifinakis.

So management has cut our hours across the board so they can save labor and get that big Christmas bonus, yet they want everything done as if we had a full staff ? Everything has to look fresh and stocked so the corporate big wigs are impressed and they don't look bad. Then come January 2nd, they will cut...

I work in the front end as a cashier, and recently a lot of the other cashiers also have had our hours cut down from 30ish hours to at most 17 a week.And the worst part is, we have almost no baggers scheduled. Maybe it's the quevision we just started to use? Has this happened at anyone else's store?
