Guys, it's been a long time since I've posted here. Being back at Kroger as, once again, a freight boss, I figured I'd stop by again and chat with you all. I went back. I needed employment, I needed good money, and I took a job as a freight crew lead. I know what you're all thinking, and I am honestly surprise...
The front end supervisorsupervisors including the assistant customer service manager pretend like their job is so hard. Especially when it comes to giving people breaks. they're constantly scheduling cart shifts when an employee is supposed to go on their break (minors must go at a certain time....
Hello, I've been working in the frozen department of my store for about 5 months now. The other day I had a "meeting" with one of my managers saying that I'm too slow. I work hard, dont really talk to anyone, focus on my work. Not really sure what I'm doing wrong, but if I dont improve, they're gonna put me on...
Someone told me working here would help me get over my public speaking and social anxiety but i swear i think its made it worse. I was ok with greeting people but now that I know about secret shoppers its made it worse. Like I feel more paranoid so it actually makes me want to avoid people. It doesn't help e...
I work at Fred Meyer (my first job). Who do I give my two weeks notice to?? My department manager? HR? Also, do I just need to tell him I'll be gone after a certain date or do I need to write a letter? Thanks
No, In Store Audio Network, we did not in fact get a life threatening metabolic disorder to have an excuse for stabbing ourselves several times a day to obtain samples for our new fun One Touch blood glucose meter. No, a zippy xylophone tune does not lift our mood when contemplating our possible impend...
So sometimes when I'm on break or I'm doing a little shopping before I go home, customers come up to me and ask for my help. I don't know of it's obvious to them if I'm off, or they choose to ignore it. I usually have my phone in my hand , and have a few items already picked out. Anyways, they'll come up to me and a...
Well... I enjoy overtime! On my own terms. Store manager is expecting the night crew to complete putting the trucks away and then conditioning the grocery section, before we leave. I understand this, but she is known to chant about reducing overtime. So... do we stay over or leave on time? Friday we le...
At our store there is an EXTREMELY difficult-to-understand ad (relating to the pharmacy) that airs randomly over the intercom system............I can't be sure if it is a "local' ad just for our store, or district, or it is part of the feed from the In-Store Audio Network to all Kroger stores. It is...
I only ask, but I don't know what's been in the "water" lately. But it seems at my store lately it's a battle between day shift and night shift in the bakery at times. I mean I get that the bakers are the first ones to see the dept. when they come in at midnight and will formulate their opinions about stuff. An...
Boy! talk about a waste of time and product. Morning: Pull the leftover artisan bread from the bread wall and slice it. Put it in a 3-tier basket. Pull the bread that's in the basket from the day before and scan it out. Nothing gets marked down. Bake 2 loaves of each artisan bread and put them on the bread...
We had 4 people to stock and condition the entire store, one of those is the grocery manager who can only stock like half of what everyone else can because they obviously have other things that have to be done. I work in a small to medium store, so each person has to do three aisles, with the new system, that...
Why does Kroger Promote a Cashier to Supervisor the week after the get hired? Whos in Charge when two Supervisors are in Duty at one time? Its like a Pissing Contest.
