How much is too much? Coworker requests shift swap every week. Generally I don't mind if the individual is reliable as I've been on the short end of the stick a few times. I don't mind to a degree. I have a few coworkers that want to change shifts almost every week. If they are reliable and I am not doing anyt...
I dont shop at Kroger because Walmart has more, better, and cheaper options for everything.. and I dont have to dive for the mute button every commercial break so I dont have to hear these annoying Kroger commercials, with these overplayed, outdated songs, with the smug looking animated stupid look...
Our store recently had a cleaning of employees with shaky work histories. Several of with I've worked along side with 8+ years. These people did their job duties very well and they eventually got them on some sort of technicality. Just because you're in the union does not mean you're 100% safe. It just...
The old system you use to be able to view them from the server and now you can't. I'm not always on a computer I wish to download my pay stubs to (ie the company computers, public computers at libraries or even on a tablet) that doesn't allow downloads. How the hell do you view paycheck stubs without downlo...
Hi Everyone, Anyone here work for Kroger back in the 1991 - 1993 timeframe? If so, do you remember listening to P.O.P. Radio/In-Store Broadcasting Network? What did you think of it? Also, do you know of any tapes that exist that your store played in P.O.P Radio's special cassette player? Regards, Kro...
Due to my time mucking up the schedule again I'm going to have to call out a couple times in April for appointments that are non-reschedulable and a few events I can not miss as well. I really, really, really don't give a f* with this company any more. Oh, if you people are not willing to work with my schedul...
The other day I had a customer scold me about one station being out of twist ties. We only get in so many and had zero in the back. Made an incredibly rude comment about it and was annoyed when I told him we didn't have any more in the back. Please don't be this person. Even though he was able bodied he refused t...
As Im pacing back and forth in the liquor dept, Im thinking of our store is so short staffed realities, but in the form of those yo mama jokes. Our store is so short staffed I gotta put post it notes on the liquor doors that say (bathroom break. Be back in 5 min).
Thanks to quadratics for giving us so many chances to say "Not Applicable", cause that's what this tihs is. How long do I plan to work here? Not saying. There is open and honest two-way communication at this company. Hell no. My workplace is a safe place to work. FU. My company conduct its business acti...
You're loosing staff left and right to being short staffed and enduring toxic environments. You can't keep staff long term because of the horrid pay. Your company is enacting fantasy environments from the office that do not work with the real world and if we don't comply you start writing us up. Your...
I've been paying attention to the shoes people wear for the past month; and most people don't even wear slip resist shoes and definitely do not wear shoes for crews shoes! Our hr rep was wearing smogs yesterday. yes those wonderful toe shoes. She is the lady haranguing me about slip resist shoes and she...
Our store manager decided to take on a position at the office district. The company sort of screwed her over with a temporary position but didn't tell her that. Shame it's rare to get a 1st manager that everyone likes, feels comfortable talking with at a personal level to a degree and willing to work wit...
I've worked for Kroger for many years and enrolled from benefits many times. However, last year I went through enrollment thinking everything was okay and that I had benefits. While at the hospital with my wife at the end of February they came to me and told me they needed another form of payment. When I...
This has always been a bit confusing: If you decide to swap shifts with another coworker. You show up for their shift but they fail to show up to yours. Who is responsible? According to my time the shifts would be completely swapped. The shift originally assigned would now be swapped with another cow...
God I was happy when this uniform bs ended. It's expensive, their employees are too poor to buy uniforms and they often wear them to shreds before replacing them. Our manager is enforcing the shoes for crews shoes and it's super frustrating not being offered an alternative. Company has always offer...
I never been treated worse in my entire life. The employees treated us poorly. I got my revenge. I became a janitoral shoplifter. 14k in 6 months . That's for my pain and suffering. Then I quit. I was the highest paid janitor in the nation.
If you are like me and refuse to agree to the "I agree" clause and have read through it and have found phrases like "we can remotely delete data on your phone." a bit of a security risk... You can do the same dribble in your phone web browser. Kronos is going away so you will be forced to use this. I can only fee...
I recently quit my job as cashier in the middle of a busy shift. A bad thing to do, I know, but I was fed up. I spoke to the person supervising that evening, the "Assistant Co-ordinator of Customer Service" or some such, the only red vest person there. I told him I was quitting, was sorry, but...
Hello fellow Kroger employees!I have a question about our company policies regarding time off requests. Does anyone know the procedure for requesting time off, especially during busy periods? I want to make sure I follow the correct steps and ensure smooth operations at our store. Any insights or...
