Where I work, you can setup a "food ledge" and put your food and drink on it. As the urge to eat and drink during the day, you can walk by your setup all day long and eat part of your sandwich and take a quick gulp of your drink and then get back to work. Sort of like a pit-stop in an auto race. Are the rest of you...
So, I work in the pharmacy, and we're required to wear masks. However, it's hot and some just wear their masks as chin guards or earrings or don't put one on at all. The number of confirmed cases in my state is increasing, not decreasing. The air is apparently shut off in the pharmacy due to a remodel, so pe...
DO NOT allow this company to have anything to do with your covid 19 testing. That is your personal medical business. Don't visit the web site. UNSAFE. Your physician also should be aware that this company has no right to access to any of your information.
Anyone out there seen or affected by the new floral program that basically cuts floral hours while claiming to provide a better experience for customers and associates? The whole thing is garbage. Smaller stores have a schedule of 12-4. Largest volume stores have coverage from 8-8 with a huge cut in...
If a manager gets snarky at me about something, I'm allowed to be snarky right back, correct? A manager wanted something done but it wasn't possible under the current procedures. If I reply back and explain why it wasn't possible but could be possible under a different procedure would it be appropr...
I've never had to replace the receipt paper in my register before and I'm a new hire. The other day, my trainer left on their break so the manager on floor duty had to come and help me with it. He entered in a code on the register afterwards and he said I have to put that in everytime after changing the paper. D...
Could someone please tell me about a energy transfer letter? What does it say and how can I request one? I am part time and signed a bid for a full time position at a different Kroger location. I've been working for Kroger for 5 years now and want to become full time. I was denied because another employe...
Self check out is not a cashier free zone. We still have to operate certain commands on your screen. Not all stores use the hand held. And NO You can not cashier on the checker side. This is accessing a restricted area and you can be filed for trespassing due to accessing a restricted area. Ps. My store ha...
been a long time since i've posted here! no longer a night crew zombie, but a daytime drug GM slave! been stocking hand sanitizer and hand soap like crazy (although my department head tells me to throw it up wherever in the soap section/endcaps) and the amount of customers who ask me how much tissue cost...
Any one else tired of customers being ruder than @$$ right now? I generally don't post stuff like this but three fu-c-ken months of this s-hi-it and I'm done with it. As this drags on customers are becoming snoblish little s.o.b's that are ruder than sh-i-t to the grocery clerks. Good fu-ck- after one o...

Thank you so much for letting me express my feeling about your post. You write every blog post so well. Keep the hard work going and good luck. I hope to...
Well I was not terminated but this has been a strange affair. I was called into the conference room at my store and an assistant manager with a loss prevention person said that I had been eating cookies that were left on one of the bakery tables. Now, our rule on "sample cookies" has been very lax, basical...
Did they change it? I bet it plays the same music repeats over and over. The only thing that changed it the name of the network.All stations pretty much are repeats. They play the biggest hits and classic stations play what was big hits. Nothing changed butthe name. I don't know why Kroger pays for a se...
Kroger is switching there in-store audio partner to Vibenomics from In Store Audio Network. Installation will start June 1 in stores and continue for 4-6 weeks.
Has anyone else got sick of listening to that announcement every 10 minutes yet? I know it is meant to be helpful (or to impress that customers on how CARING and up-to-date Kroger is), but I am just about at my wits end. And the constant reminders (like this is a kindergarden class) to WASH YOUR HANDS...
