While I am flexible to a degree, I will work full time if requested but it is so exhausting. I gladly welcome <30 hrs a week to tackle fall quarter. Our department keeps loosing staff and they keep haranguing us about stuff not getting done in a timely manner. Our department is 2 staff members and they...
Hi all I was just wondering if any of you guys have heard of the new attendance and tardy policy where they are lumping tardies and missed work into the same category??? Im Just confused because the union hasnt said anything and we havent received a read and sign on it. Just wondering how valid this is or i...
Good lord I hate this new time punching system. If you call out sick they do not want you to do the right thing and come in on another day off to make up the skipped shift. Due to them being on a tight hour budget. Then you have to constantly remind them to input sick pay for you. Even if you ask over the phone the...
Don't know if my coworker will see this but fmla is very strict about how long your job is protected for. If you wished for an extension you should of done it a couple months before the expiration date expired. Not after it did. Now you're just screwed. Please consider worker retraining programs throug...
I'm a cashier. I do a good job, but lately there has been a cut in hours for me and several other part-timers after a brief raise in hours (I was getting 30-35 weekly, and some were getting 38 to start). I'm wondering how to get full-time so I can be one of those guys that works from the ghostly hour of 6am to 2p...
He declared a medical flair up on a pre existing condition. Which is swell and legally they are to work with you until you get back to normal. However, you've had 16 weeks off work. If you are that disabled you want to reconsider your future employment history. If you knew you were not coming back you shou...
I'm honestly ready to leave the store I've been at the last 7 yrs and move onto a bigger store. I am so sick of being the only active employee + lead. Our department can not keep staff and has high turn over. I'm honestly about ready to can this sh---it of a store and move to a bigger store that doesn't have sta...
I am so sick of full time and this started out as a health insurance job. Unlike others I do not really need the income from the job but it is nice to have it. Work fights me for requesting so much time off be it paid or not. Knowing vacation cashes out it will supplement the difference. I tried to vocally quot...
We don't have them here in the Local 1996 Atlanta GA area. Are you referring to the Shell stations that accept the KrogerPlus card for 3 cents off the price of their gas?
Okay, so to my coworker who is accustomed to waking up at 5 am kudos to you that you can do that. Get a reality check stop reaming into your coworkers that function better on day shifts or late pm shifts. Face it if the entire world operated on the same shift nothing would get done. I my self have never been a m...
When I was in the front end (I am now at Fuel) we were told that we had to sell the booze to the customer since we "are not law enforcement and can't tell if someone is drunk or not." I always have felt uncomfortable selling to these individuals since several years ago an intox customer came in bought a bunch...
well, my environment probably isnt nearly as toxic as it can be elsewhere, but i still consider it detrimental to my mental health. i work in the pharmacy and even tho there is camaraderie i dont feel i can trust most of the people working there. i know if i say one thing it spreads from here to there. "ther...
STOP LIVING ABOVE YOUR MEANS! Yall buy these expensive ass cars, phones, watches, etc but come and complain that yall are broke or you spouse come up to the job and yells at you for being behind (3 month) on rent. Before anyone comes for me this manager has a BMW and had 4 new pairs or Jordons they come t...
I need not 40 hrs a week but will work it if requested. We only have 2 active staff in a department that would function better with 4 and are not even given 40 hrs a week. Oh, yes corporate a deli department can fully run on 2 people plus lead and you're wondering why sales are down and freshness is repeatedly...
Once you people realize that the staffing issue at kroger isn't you're problem you'll be a lot happier. Remember just show up, do the bare minimum, know your boundaries as to not get in trouble, do the bare minimum and leave. If there's still work to be done it's not your problem! It's kroger's issue. Sh...
Every once in a while there will be three or four sales representatives from a certain internet service/cable provider at our store asking people what internet service they use. I told the guy it was none of his business and kept walking. Next time I'm going to ask if they ever get tired of annoying cu...
There's an influx of customers entering the store and needing to be hand held to guide them where items are. Has your store train customers to be self sufficient? Like could the store train customers to walk within the store to shop whatever they need? I had seen an college student texting on the phone...
