I've been working for Kroger more than a year and I feel like I am always a target. First it was when I called in one day for my grandmother's funeral, my store manager said no you can't because it's a holiday weekend (Memorial Day) but when I got there I was just bagging folks **** , mind you my probation per...
I am trying to get out of working Ripper shift (Its horrible and I dont get enough sleep). My Store Director always asks for proof of school and I show him. Recently I updated my eschedule to the following: Mon-Wed (unavailable), Thursday 2pm-12am, and FridaySaturdaySunday (8am-9pm). Problem is th...
Kroger is not an equal opportunity employer they so claim to be.You will go far in the company if you are a) male b) a favorite or c) Caucasian.Kroger is gender bias to a high degree.Don't believe me?Ask my 7+ years of experience with the company where they refused to work with me because of my disabi...

It says I've used a personal holiday... Now, first thing I'm thinking is that I screwed up somewhere and accidentally put in for payed holiday...
Our store mgr got back from a meeting he and others spent the week at and one of the things they talked about was dropping the Union. Has anyone else heard about this? I know our union kinda sucks but i would be more scared not having one at all and being walked all over by managment.
How most interactions with any male over 50 go: Me: Hi how are you today? Them: *no response * Me: Did you find everything alright? Them: I can't find a damn thing in this store me: I'm sorry about that sir. Was there anything in particular you were looking for? them: *chuckles* gah I don't know. lots of t...
Not all items are appropriate for this-sometimes it is much better to fill the bag up and let it go. Why all this emphasis about "build a wall" bagging all of a sudden?!? It's really being pushed in my store-tips on how to deal with it?
This template text is all I've seen generated in the way of a "response": Thank you for your report. We will review it to determine if an investigation is necessary. Please follow up on a regular basis, in case we have additional questions as we review this matter.
I work grocery night shift, as some of you may already know from earlier posts. Can they write me up for leaving right when the schedule says at 8:30, instead of staying overtime to finish stocking/conditioning? Can I do this during the holidays when we get f**ked with a huge load?
With all of the extra crap like residual scanning and sorting off slow movers, mandatory daily back stock, and now the loss of a conditioner to make up the hours the crew lost when this system rolled out I am spending between 3-4 hours a day doing it. I work at a smaller store (300k/WK) which means I'm resp...
Has anyone heard a Barry Manilow song on the Kroger music playlist? I can't remember EVER hearing one, although I have only been working here for close to 4 years. And to any of you who have a low opinion of his music, I will just say in my opinion, he has a strong, powerful voice with great depth of emotion,...
I work in the meat departmen, a customer came to the counter & and asked is that all the shrimp that you have. I told him yes, he walks away, then comes back & say that he needs a least a pound. Weight up all the shrimp that we had it comes to .80 close to a pound that it's going to get. Hand it to cust...
OK So we get customers who call in their orders ahead of time. I Love these customers, because I can prepare what they want without them standing there waiting. We don't put the price stickers on because customers will grab the orders and walk away. We then don't know if it was the customer who ordered it...
Is there a way to tell how many hours you worked on a specific date in the past? Like how many hours you worked on September 1st for example? Does Kroger have some online system or anything?
