How has it affected you? Do you ever feel like going off on the inspector about how no one follows the stupid rules when they're not around? I've often felt the need to tell them how the managers don't even follow them. Guess I'm just a tattle tale at heart.

I just stumbled across this forum...I have been a Kroger employee for over 15yrs. I started out as a bagger and have made my way to a Meat Mgr. I have been going over this forum and notice that most of the posts on here are from employees from Texas. Are there any employees on here from Mi? There is so much abo...

Recently my fellow coworkers recieved Kroger gift cards for $100 and some employees received $200 checks from the union. They say is has something to do with raises we never received, but the problem is that I didn't get a gift card. I have been working at this Kroger longer than some of the people that h...

I have been working in the seafood/meat dept. for three years. The seafood manager, who thinks she owns me, is a power tripping bitch from hell. She got suspended a month ago for stealing hours and they only suspended her for a week. Everyone else I have known to do less than that has gotten fired on the sp...

Any one out there about to see a contract expire or working without one? What are you hoping to get or want? What is being offered? What are the good pionts and bad pionts about the one you are under? Local540, in Dallas, Is up in about 3 weeks and hoping that we get some definition on Elms hours and being und...

I was thinking of moving out of state and wondering if it is possible to transfer to another store in that state? It's in another division.

Grumpy 1 in 488 s.w.k.m.a. local 540 member It does seem to be a little ironic that so many people come here to bitch and complain about both kroger and the union. That is fine and do not have a problem with that. But then when it comes down to it, there are so many Chicken%$#& s there that will only pos...

Has any one heard of any stores doing this? I heard from a co worker that they do anual drug tests for anyone who has been employed for a year or longer. It this true?

know who you are. You're almost invariably male, Caucasian, middle-class. Your parents were normal, vanilla folks. Maybe you had a sibling or two. You went to a public school, pulling high or middlish grades with ease and relative disinterest. You didn't really gel with most of the other kids; you f...

I've been a bagger for over 5 months when do I get a raise?

Silver5646 · Silver5646

Ok at the store I work at they have told me that because I have restricted my scheduling giving me 3 days off a week that basically they can schedule me however they see fit. I have worked there for 3+ years and there is a full page of people below me in seniority There are people who have also restricted sche...

I wish they would recognize the positions such as wall deli manager, dairy manager, seafood manager, and frozen manager as actual management. If you are one of these, you are not considered a department head and are stuck in a rut. No bonus or chance of advancement into upper management. Any position...
