The department head in the department I'm in has decided to transfer to another store after being there for several years. The position was posted last week and the only person who has put in for it is from another store, has never worked in this particular department, and has been with Kroger for less t...

I work 3rds so I dont see what happens during the day. But I do see that over 100 hours are scheduled in Daytime Grocery per week (divided among several part-timers) and I see that very little to nothing is done in my dept. When pressed for answers, I am told that they spend most of the time running a regi...

The system has been installed, but not activated at the store I work at. So, I don't know much at all about it. I'm not even sure what the name of the system is.

Back in November, my store got a new manager. In this store, we never keep a manager around for more than a year or two tops, but I have been praying every single day for this man to get fired, transfered, or quit. Right off the bat, you could tell he couldn't be trusted. He is a liar to the extreme. As a Union S...

Well maybe promised is an overstatement, but anyway here's the story. We recently learned our store is closing "because the location failed to meet sales expectations," according to a local news article. I'm not sure what that means, but I DO know it means I'm out of a job. Well, maybe....

What are Kroger's rules regarding the use of smokeless tobacco by employees while on the clock and/or while on Kroger property? My store manager turns a blind eye to this problem and allows a few employees, including a dept. mgr. to chew & spit while on duty. They do this even in our tiny lunch roo...

If anyone out there has a scanner and the time, (I know we're all busy!) I'd love to see the appomatox/farmville, raleight-durham, and richmond-tidewater contracts. They aren't available online like many of the others are. It's interesting to see the many differences when you spend time diggin...

Does anyone have any opinions on the Kroger CTP program. Also any informaiton on the pay for the engineering CTP and the Operations CTP? Thank you!

Does anyone know exactly what formula they use for ELMS? I know that items per minute is a big part of it, but I also know that transation time and customers per hour have something to do with it along with some other things.

Has anyone else out there been noticing a lot of meeting going on at their stores? At mine, they had a meeting to teach the different generations of employees how to work together, and how front end supervisors can talk to the younger ones. Seem to me that since our contract is up this fall they are goin...

A woman came up to the bakery counter and wanted a cake written on. She looked at the 1/4 sheet cakes for $15.99 and said Costco has cakes twice this size for this price. I told her this isn't Costco. Another time a guy came up and wanted to know if we were going to reduce the price on a pie because the crust...
