....would you choose a retail job again? Why or why not?

Anyone have solid information on this local Kroger store closing? What day will the store actually close for good? I'm assuming it is doing this because Kroger Corp doesn't like smaller, more personalized, downhome, friendlier stores with better service. They want them HUGE, BUSY, overcr...

Does anyone else work in a store that is so hot you sweat? I shop at another Kroger and that store is nice and cold. I don't know if they don't know how to use the system or they don't care. It has been mentioned to management. It was cold one day last week, in this heat this is ridiculous. Even the vendors and c...

What I mean Is grocery and dairy pallets are on the same thing. So if dairy fail then grocery department fail as well because were down to three ppl in dairy and grocery manager hates when I or this other girl help dairy but store leader tell us to.

Department head

Being a department Head for this company has been the worst of all my experiences. The hiring process is so slow that you never really feel like your ever going to get any help. they Dont hire anybody with the slightest mark on their background so you dont get qual associates whenever you do get a new hire...

Sunday night two young (probably underage kids) tried to steal two bottles of those mini-Bota Box wines that we sell for around $7.00. They were confronted by our security guard, who dropped the items and they ran out of the store. They then got into a fight with a customer at the fuel center who witness...

Well, a few weeks ago I was in my old workplace Kroger. As always, no shopping carts in the lobby. They were all out on the lot. One of the Assistant Managers was barking orders at a few courtesy clerks. She was talking loud enough I heard her say to them "If you do it the way I am telling you it works." I gu...

This video should be part of a Kroger Commercial and Management should be watching this video during one of their meetings.

All jobs do really, but retail's at the top of the dung heap. I've read pretty much all the arguments for staying: long term union employee, can't beat the money, easy work, decent benefits, yada yada. All I can say is, if you're really hip deep into Kroger and it's working for you, then of course stay. Bu...

Customer gets upset and saying she wants to talk to a manager about how the pallet is leaning. Even the associates told the customer that the palle...

So every now and then, I make a trip to my local Kroger. Although it's been years since I worked there, I was a courtesy clerk and part of that was the dreaded cart retrieval. Sometimes when I get there and see a corral overflowing with carts not because of the employees, but clearly because customers wer...

I've worked at a couple different stores and found that they had totally different music playing at the store. I know there are different "stations" that they can play but the 2nd store I worked at had only a small array of music meaning that you heard the same handful of songs everyday. It w...

Does anyone know what the Kroger policy is on employees carrying concealed firearms? I have my CCL, so everything is legal. I just want to make sure I won't get fired for carrying at work.

Scanning customer id's starts tomorrow 9/1 fellow employees. Have fun. I'm only gloating because I got the next couple days off and won't have to deal with day one of this sh--it. You will no longer be able to manually enter the dob's for restricted items. No id, no valid id no sale. Period. Yes if your cu...

I would put it first but front end is #1. Dairy is down to 3 people and one person put in their 2 weeks. The other quit two weeks ago. I work grocery and they usually pull me to help dairy out as well as this other girl. Any other person I talked to says theyll rather lick the floor than help dairy
