Every store I've worked at has had a handful of these individuals that just barging hunt or found ways to live off of them. I kept asking our manager on the rules of these and they said just get me involved. Me translating it as "I don't care." No, sorry barging hunters but I'm done with this group of people...
All bakers in my division are suppose to go to another store for a four hour meeting. Why? It's right in the middle of my shift. If they have something to say, just send out a memo.
We do so many things at this company for appearance only. I see it every day, in every store I'm in, and at every level; Store Walks, Processes, Observations, Equipment Inspections, Temperature Logs, Pick-up Fill Rates, you name it! We are very good at faking the funk with the appearance of integrit...
Management is the key to employee satisfaction in any work environment. When management doesn't enforce rules fairly and across the board there is resentment amongst the workers. When management enforces rules, they themselves refuse to follow, there is resentment and disrespect amongst the w...
Don't you love it when a coworker adds another week on to their vacation? This screws over your coworkers into exhaustion and you eventually get sick of it. Lead's going to be pissed but I am not working with the flu bug. I did that on my last one and it took twice as long to get over it.
My department runs a tight shift and our lead gets frustrated with people that have high call outs. No, I get this we are running a business. I understand people lack corporate loyalty respect these days and have been there my self.. However... grocery is a business like any other and you need to show up...
Our am opener kept having tardiness issues so they just changed his start time to compensate the difference instead of punishing him for it. Now, that's 100% favoritism!
Whoever thought of the idea to pull associates as side help for front end etc was/is an idiot. Front end hours have been cut or not used so executives and store mangers can fatten their bonuses. Customer complain all the time about the lack of cashiers and baggers. I tell them I don't work in the front...
Coworker quit again after going on vacation... You people suck when you ghost quit like this as it screws over your coworkers... Yes, this job sucks but at least leave on good terms. Why? Stuff like this shows up on your back ground check for future jobs. If you have a habit of just walking and someone sp...
I work as a cc and I am relatively good at bagging. My question is, when I am working on bagging and order doni HAVE to let a customer "help" bag the order? Can I just say "it's OK I got this." Because honestly, the customer slows me down and get in my way
One time I went into a Kroger bathroom and there was a poop that looked like a meatloaf in the toilet. Another time a female employee went in there and came back out almost instantly and she looked pale. She had said some one blasted one of the female stales. she said the smell was unbearable. I don't go int...
1. Sorry we are in the middle of an audit (when someone wants to buy scratch-off tickets too close to close.) 2. Sorry I am out of (quarters/nickels/dimes) when we don't want to open up another roll of change and we have to give "extras" in the other change 3. Sorry, everything is locked up for the night (e...
Saw this bodycam footage pop up the other day of an unruly customer inside a Kroger. Not sure which one, but check it out! Its wild! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmL-SZ0HGlo Any of you guys ever seen anything like that? [Admin Edit:] Cleaned up the link. Not a phishing scam. -- Edited by Admin o...
To get the customers away from me and the management team, I immediately began acting mentally retarded on the job. Best move I ever made. The person hiring me isn't around so I'm good to go
