I started working for Kroger while I was still in school, I dropped out a few weeks later and when time came around that I was supposed to be graduating and they just never asked. A couple years later I'm department manager. If they find out I never graduated will there be trouble?
So today I got chewed out by my CSM because a customer called and chewed her out because she forgot a bad with 2 things she paid for Apperently thats my fault she forgot those 2 things. Personal responsibility is dead I see. I say if you bought those things, after you've paid, those things are your respon...
That's not a personal insult, it's a statistical fact. Women fit into this too, but mostly, any man you see (or are ) fitting that demographic, you are either: retarded, mentally ill, an alcohoholic and/or a drug addict. Put it this way: in any metro area big enough to justify Kroger putting a store, t...
$1.50 premium/hr night shift. click list-pick up=premium. Back-ups=premium. DSD=WORST COMPENSATION !! Throw Bread in the mix. How do other DSD clerks keep their mind? no one else can do everything we do. Sorry, Bad Day
I just got back from one of the Cincinnati area Kroger stores on Friday afternoon on July 19, 2019..... On the outside of the store there's all kinds of circus flags/streamers decorating the parking lot and store roof. It was comparable to a small college homecoming football game. There's also a...
Hello to all. I am pleased to be here and I shall enjoy sharing in the insanity that this crazy retail world has to offer. I've worked for Kroger for some time and I look forward to talking about the trials and tribulations of the job. Thank you for having me here.
In fact they're doubling down on this stuff. It is going to really suck now being at the front end. If you're caught not saying hello to even one customer, you get written up or suspended, and then fired. Doesn't matter if you're just sitting by your register for a 30 second rest, you get written up for tha...
I retrieve and put away the bakery frozen order five days a week. I alsp do some of the ordering. Someone else does it the days I'm off. Because of this, we like to keep a tight inventory on everything. There's no reason to have multiple cases of something when you get an order in every day and you use le...
wtf is the point of the beeper things when you come in and out of the store. I've never seen an associate stop someone after one goes off, you know to check their receipt like wal mart does. At best , they're annoying. They confuse the customer. What's the point?
.....Mold. And, they want the berries "waterfalled" with 7 empty boxes under each full box. What is the point of all the empty boxes? I can understand 2 or 3, maybe even 4, but seven?? And basically this just means the full display table plus one box. What stupidity. Waterfalling becomes pointl...
My store's in a suburban strip mall, near a bunch of other stores and restaurants that close up around 9. At 10 PM, like clockwork, we get rushed by people with fairly large orders-- employees of those stores who went shopping after work. The FES used to schedule a cashier until 11 to cover, but ELMS came...
I work at the front end as a cashier, and for the past 2 months, the cashiers and courtesy clerks/baggers have been evaluated several times by different Front End Supervisors and Managers as well as the Store Manager . I have been at this location since 2016. Several of my co-workers have been there lon...
if you aren't angry at work at least 75% of the time, you must love your job. I'm mad just thinking about going in this weekend...it's the weekend...the good jobs are off on weekends (banks, etc). Anyway in my fits of rage I have slammed the phone on a moron employee so much that it broke the phone. The...
That's precisely what I did. I left. Kroger has too many problems that I cannot work within their problematic procedures, structures, and expectations without getting eventually ulcers. I can solve many of those problems by proposing new procedures, etc. but the mere thought gets shot down a...
