My coworker is a nice person but I don't need to know half your life history about where you lived, how many times you moved and what you did over the course of your life.... No, please don't. For starters that's too much information and I have started to develop less respect for you by telling me things th...
The controversial debate to wear masks or not. By now it's a choice. Free will choice to wear one or not. Please, if you're going to chin wear one or have your nose hanging out of it; just take the damn thing off. It is 100% inefficient if your nose is hanging out of it. Or if you're chin wearing it, take the...
Today I went shopping at Kroger (do not work there) and overheared an associate say "I HATE handing out and supervising samples." To a fellow associate. He just left the cart there and walked off. Ummm....isn't it YOUR job to handle and supervise samples? EVEN IF you don't like it? in other Kroger's I...
So at my store they pulled front end associates to help with floral. Registers were busy so they pulled side help from other departments to replace front end associates in floral. In the meantime store management was laugh and having a good time in the conference room. They should have kept front e...
For some reason, they keep giving me early @ss lunches. Like 3-3˝ hourd after I start. I am NOT ready to take my lunch at that time. So with that being said, I ONLY take my lunch 4-4˝ AFTER I start my shift. I'm not a checker or a utility/courtesy clerks, I work clicklist/stocking so I'm sure they can manage...
Don't buy from big retail. Certain giant companies are off limits. Cash only. The organizers didn't mention any kroger store brands, but the kroger way of doing things seems familiar: If there is some secret way to enslave people then it is secretly legal, yes? Telling the union what will be in the co...
We're all fed up with our department and store. The lead protects his favorite. Store manager protects his favs as well. I can't tell you how many shi--ty things I've seen staff get away with. Many of us are discriminated against while the two favs get to push all the o.t. they want. Make up the shifts th...
Another communication blunder failure about how the program I Am which is essential to change your pass code was changed. Kroger failed to inform employees about this technology change yet again. So they get employees complaining about how they can't change their pass code. This bs is why I'm fed up...
The side help policy must go. Center store departments can't function properly if everyone is pulled to the front end to bag customers groceries or pick up for over half their shifts almost every day. Front end manager needs to staff and schedule the associates hired for their department the right...
I'm not qualify to baby-sit an employee on the job. I work in retail, I do not work as a nanny. Who in the world hired that employee? Anyone baby-sitting an employee in the retail industry?
Has anyone noticed this? HR representatives, at least at the Krogers I've worked at, are universally grumpy. Yet their job is dealing with people! My first experience with a Kroger HR rep was my orientation. My orientation was at a store other than the one I was hired at due to schedule conflicts. My h...
Twice now we've had our new schedule write screw people over on the schedule and the union has been involved for a while now. Due to unfair schedules. Coupled with people complaining left and right about this or that. Twice now in the past few months we've had to rely on the paper wall schedule because th...
