If you wanted more hours as you so said you wanted -- you needed to get cashier trained for your role. Guess what dumb ass you got what you exactly signed up for. Now you're being called up left and right due to lack of staff and the practice of relying on side staff for line relief. I'm laughing my aff off bec...

We recently hired a new bagger on the front end a few months ago and they've been a constant problem ever since. First, some background on this person. They're sixteen. They're home-schooled.

At what point do you call the police to remove said customer from the store because they are being a liability to employees and other cus...

Don't you love it when corporate keeps making up policies out of their rear ends, then hras--s staff about it and enforce it to an unethical level? Well...

Why do associates smell worse in the summer time? The heat really intensifies their stench even more. Do you all not wash? Two of the cashiers were literally turning green in the face cause the baggers smelled like rotten eggs fart and BO.

First, Rodney McMullen is forced to resign. Then, they layoff around 200 corporate employees and a second batch of layoffs is coming up. Now, Dave is telling people if they can't meet Kroger's new standards, then he doesn't want them working for him. He even sent the produce manager at one store ho...
