One of the chefs at our deli keeps making these pizzas that are kinda burnt. Like every single time. Just has this idgaf attitude about it. I'm surprised no one has taught him better. Or that any customer has complained. Thankfully though, there's the other two more experienced chefs who make nice and...
I have a couple of 4-hour paid personal days, but my supervisor wanted to know if I could come in after my doctor's appointment. In the greatpeople website, I've used one of my old personal days from when I was a cashier. In the site, it says it counts as 4 hours. I wouldn't mind getting another 4 hours but I...
I was recently moved from a large store to a smaller store, taking a pay cut after I addressed massive weights and measure concerns along with food safety (chicken leaking onto produce that they proceed to sell anyway). What are my options. I have 100 pictures+ over a year or two with evidence of my mer...
Apparently it just changed here in Georgia several months ago-now cashiers must have the customer show ID for a purchases of cigarettes (including vape products, but we sell very few of those.)
Learning about the general bull****tery of my district/store, and reading about the same sorts of things going on on this forum has made me lose any respect I once had for this company. However, I'm wondering if there is any chance that this is due to confirmation bias. Does anyone have anything pos...
Has anyone else in Cincy/Dayton had their "Our Promise" meeting yet? What did everyone think of it? It was a 2 hour propaganda piece that isn't "uplifting" at all when it can't even start at the management level...
For the moment I just do third shift U-Scan on weekends (so you know Saturday night is lovely every stoner and drunk comes for miles to get their pizza rolls and ice cream) and try to do anything I can to make time fly by and move quickly as possible when customers aren't around. When my journey started it w...
A month ago I had requested my vacation week to be scheduled for this coming week. The CSM said, oh sure, I've got ya. I mean, this is my first time requesting a vacation, so I assumed everything's good when they say it's good. Two weeks ago, I see (on the eSchedule/greatpeople site) that I was scheduled t...
So I got transferred to another store. Once I got there I noticed a few things are different. I've worked for Kroger for almost 2 years. So I know Kroger Policies. When I show that I know how to do the job, the others are intimidated by me and talk. If I ask questions, they roll their eyes, make ignorant comm...
Hello Rodney...just imagine...if each and every person at corporate spent two days actually shadowing and really working (complete with uniform and time clocking) with hourly employees in every department, on each shift, for every task, to enable a better understanding of what really goes on in...
People need to stop complaining about each other. They need to stop finding faults in others. They need to accept their part in the problem and resolve it. Blaming others gets you nowhere. It doesn't solve the problem. Confront me face-to-face. Tell me what I'm doing wrong and I will change it.When y...

She was stopped and question and she said she bought the food at walmart but forgot the drinks. so she stopped here to get some. The camera of c...
Two things:Being the Einstein that I am, I somehow logged off of "my eschedule portal" and can't seem to log back on. I can go on my eschedule, but if I click on the portal it just takes me to a screen that re directs me back to the greatpeople.me homepage.The reason why I was poking around on my schedule in t...
...put down your damn cellphone. Woman this morning kept hanging around the bakery counter with her phone glued to her ear. I ignored her and went about my business. She left and came back with her phone still up to her ear. I kept ignoring her. Finally she said, "Are you just going to stare at me and...

The area really smelt bad and some customers were questioning the smell.. I asked him to please stop and he looked at me farted and said when they give me a raise Ill s...
