Today, they chose me to be "door monitor." This means I have to count customers as they leave and enter our store. We have a 75-80 limit count allowed. Once it hits its max, you are supposed to have tur customers stand in line and wait until the next customer(s) leave the store for them to go in. It's suppos...
is an embarrassment. what a terrible, backwards policy. while other stores including walmart are limiting numbers to 50 at a time, Kroger is allowing only 475 customers in to my store at once. because they value our health. lol. this company is a joke, everything they do is weeks behind and i feel lik...
The new district 2 manager is literally making people quit left and right. This week alone half a dozen department heads have stepped down. He claims we are all easily replaceable and all lazy pieces of ****. Meanwhile no one is replaceable because every department is upwards to 200 hours short with...
I don't know about you guys, but I would definitely advise you to take the mask-wearing, handwashing and social distancing SERIOUSLY, especially over the next couple of weeks, if not more! I'm saying this because our store just lost it's first casualty to COVID-19...One of our baggers, an older gen...
Here in the Local 1996 Atlanta GA are we will be open from 8-5. We were talking today about how this is the FIRST time Kroger in this area has closed early for a holiday!
It's so freaking busy at my store because of the pandemic that a lot of us are doing well over eight hours a day either in our own departments or a combination of being in our own departments and helping out other departments that are drowning. Something I've noticed and others have too is if we try and clo...
Got locked out of my account for entering the password wrong too many times. Now I cant check my schedule. Spoke to some guy on the phone who gave me a temporary password and said use this to login to cam and then change your password asked what cam was and he said its what kroger uses to change the password l...
Ralphs San Diego employee here. When my schedule was posted I had zero hours on it. The new week was posted but no work at all that week. Has anyone else seen this? I wasn't fired and I still am an employee for sure, but they didn't put me on the schedule at all. went from 37 hours to hours the next work week sc...
Hey all! Anyone else having several employees just quit in your department recently!? I work in produce at a larger Kroger and we had 12 people in our department. But in the last week 6 of our people quit in produce!! Our store has 3 confirmed cases of corona and all the workers are legit worried, and our...
The Mist: Story takes place in a grocery store... Military intervention is on the horizon... Worker volunteers to open the warehouse door and is grab by some octopus monster tentacle and dies... Approximately 2-3 attractive women in the...
I was recently under a doctors order to quarantine for 14 days yesterday was my first day back and I was told by store management that my LOA finally was approved on yesterday. Question is how do I find out if I am getting paid for my time loss?? And if any one has gotten paid during this time does it come like...
This one isn't "bad" per se, but I'd still like to know why they think this **** is okay. This pic is old but I don't believe I've ever posted it here before. As you can see, the pallet is on the ground yet just a tiny bit away from the opened door. I.e. there's no way for us at the store level to get this palle...
So, we were told corporate said that it's time to start getting back to normal in our area. This means higher ups will start doing walks again like "normal" to point out what's wrong, etc. WTF are these people drinking or what drugs are they high on? It isn't "normal" and won't be normal for quite some tim...
I'm a pickup employee. Yesterday i took an order outside and set the brake on the palley. The load must have been too heavy and the brake failed and the palley ran into the car next to it. I doubt it did much damage from being hit by plastic totes and the car looked fine to me. If they call and complain how much...
My store manager is requiring employees to come in sick. I tried to call out yesterday and he told me to call him back in two hours "when you might feel better." Is this even legal? I am in the Local 1996 Atlanta GA area. I ended up coming in because the hassle of calling out wasn't worth it
All stores in my area are getting click list and I'm sick of the front end and am who knows how far away from having a mental blow out with the next @$$ hole customer. Right now customer @$$ holiness is at an all time high and I don't know how much more of it I can take... Long story short I want out. My question:...
We should not have to touch the timeclock that 200 other people touch every day. Not safe at all! Please don't shrug it off and tell me to wash my hands(I do) or wipe down the clock(I do), or use sanitizer,(I do), so our union should protect us and have an alternate way to track our working time. Thanks!...
