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...
some lady today walked in our store with a walmart shopping cart. loaded it with food went to a self check out scanned only one 12 pack pepsi and proceeded to leave. 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...
so I was cashiering today and my bagger kept farting all day. He didnt even try to give it... even if a customer was there he would rip one out. 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...
Was talking to someone the other night and said in the 5 years I have been with Kroger that we only once had to hustle people/customers to the back of the store due to an impending tornado/severe weather alert. Most of us ended up in the back warehouse. Someone said that was NOT the safest place that we sho...
You know those idiots who think you're watching them to see if they're stealing? Well I had one the other day taunt me in the lobby area when I was putting some carts back. Every time I'd come out to put some baskets or carts back, he'd be there, running his mouth at me. Throwing insults.
Yesterday we got our order plus part of another store's. I didn't realize until after I had loaded several pieces on to trucks that some of the stuff wasn't ours. So I had to get the bills and check off each item one by one and re-stack the stuff that wasn't ours on to a pallet so it could be picked up. It's...
Hello, I was recently hired in the Columbus, OH division. I need to know: 1.) How much are union dues? 2.) Why do I have to wait 90 days to get my union contract? 3.) Union dues haven't been taken out of my paychecks. I've had 2 paychecks so far. Is that normal? 4.) Do union dues get taken out 90 days after empl...
I worked 40 hours the last 2 weeks, but only got paid for 32. Last week I got paid for holiday pay and 32 hours. I worked 40 hours, not 32. I had to write my schedule in because I had just transferred and they probably made the mistake there, but 2 weeks in a row is too much. I brought it up to them and all they coul...
When already carrying a title and other person hasn't gone through the training yet, taken the classes, or worked for Kroger as long as you, doesn't that mean the position is yours? Doesn't seniority play a role in this? People really play me as a fool.
I was shopping and got cash back of $20. left it in the machine (mind was elsewhere) and got home, realized i didnt have that money and went back. asked u-scan clerk if anything had been turned in, she said no. i got the manager to look at the camera with me, and i clearly saw a woman and her friend excitedly t...
Guys, I just got fired from a job for the first time ever. Okay, I take that back. This is my second time from ever being fired and I really don't consider the first one as being much since I was only making $7.25 an hour, and I know the people who got me fired. Two women from high school who are obviously st...
