or did they finally realize that they're throwing money down the drain. I swear they come up with some of the craziest ****. "free friday downloads" You're giving **** away! How is that a good business idea?
I really couldn't care less about this. The only people that get in trouble are managers. We as front end people cant even be disciplined. One of the mgrs. tried, the union got involved, and into arbitration. The decision is that OSAT is not definitive and easily manipulated and Quevision is based on...
Correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't one of the jobs of store management (either store mgr themselves or a co) to review all dept. heads schedules before they are posted? for example, if a dept head schedules overtime, due to lack of staffing, how can a store manager say after the week has been completed,...
And thankfully I wasn't one of the folks helping peeps decorate the cupcakes. As usual and as I knew would happen, I had a lot to package again, no time to label anything, re-filled the floor 3 times, and took care of the other key things that needed to be done. And thankfully one of the peeps working the cu...
I am a backup and have been at this store for 6 months. I came here after winning a job bid. The store itself is not that bad, but the department head is terribly lazy and it is getting me more and more frustrated that I have put in for other stores backup positions. I have not talked to management about any of...
I live in a fairly white area to be fair. But I see a lot of people come in to check on their applications and I notice more of a dismissive attitude to anyone who is really unattractive or someone of color. I don't know these people, or their work history so I'm not for certain, to be fair. I know for fact ou...
Had a little situation this morning in which an associate needed to be taken to the ER. At first I was going to call 911, but we decided it'd be much quicker to drive the person to the ER. (so we don't have to wait on the ambulance). It didn't seem to be a life or death thing and it wasn't a physical injury, b...
Things have gotten ****ty. Fortunately for those of us trying to find an exit, we know there are greener pastures out there if you're willing to take a risk. We've got a couple in school and one looking at another position elsewhere. These are all people with 3, 8, 10 years experience. If we all leav...
Hi, I'm writing a proposal on the issues with UFCW and how it affects Kroger employee's wages. I'm comparing the UFCW227's union guidelines with the other store within the Louisville district (Jay-C) and how they differ from being Union/Non-union and if it's better off at one or the other. Basicall...
Any aspects that you just can't understand. Why TF do we have to keep our back dock door sealed "Do not exit"? At our store, vendors and drivers are forced to use the roll up door. If this is an issue of security (to keep people from stealing) their logic is faulty. Instead of having them use a regula...
They seem to think it's something you can really live off of, but I hardly think it's somewhere a person could stay 20 years (I'm thinking of people who are just now getting into the workforce). People who have been here for awhile might be ok, but those who are just starting out can easily do better in ot...
In our area (Local 1996) we have about 6 or so former WalMart maangers that have started working for Kroger. Why so many-is WalMart treating their mgt like s*** because it seems so many are leaving them
