In my handbook, if it says an employee fears that they will be assaulted or immediate threat of assault to call 911, and then notify loss prevention, and thats all the employee handbook says, but this handbook is older. what do other handbooks say? , is there anywhere online where a kroger handbook can...
The other night we had a very intoxicated customer at one of our registers. We knew he was driving (had the car keys near the pin pad.) Do you call management, or your store security guard if one is on duty? We have been told to just let the customer go. What is Kroger's policy anyone know?
I applied online for a job in early 2009 and was denied due to my background check. I actually got a letter in the mail from corporate stating this. I was unhappy with this result so I went to the store I applied at and walked up to the customer service desk and told the black hunchback of notre dame guy I want...
I'm 15 and work weekends and whenever they schedule me- - I'm a utility clerk, bagger job. I've worked at Krogers for 4 months, work hard, treat customers well, take others shifts and come in usually whenever they call and im not scheduled. I was just told Tuesday by my parents we are going to Destin Flo...
I'm not in a right-to-work state and have been employed for a couple months. our steward only recently wanted me to sign paperwork. That was only a few days ago and my current pay stub shows no dues or init fees. Is there a problem or are we just not supposed to pay dues during "probation period"? I honestl...
Ive been thinking about how many people were hired after me and have since left and the number i have come up with is: 14. In 5 years. This isn't including the three department heads who either retired, or were transferred to another store. And its possible i could be forgetting someone too. So is this a n...
Can anyone help me out understanding my union contract regarding qualifying for full time? It reads: "an employee shall be classified as a full-time employee at the end of the first sixteen (16) calendar weeks in a row during which the employee's average hours worked equal or exceed thirty-six (3...
Do they ever help your dept with the monotonous tasks or are they off doing their own thing? Do the head/backup work side by side every day or do they understand that sometimes you have to do what needs to be done to make the store look good? Does it take both to do the schedule? At our store it does. 2 peo...
Donald J Trump has a 100% of winning. I know this because I've done extensive calculations and predictions by using certain algorithm that incorporate the use of the 4th law of astrology.
Does anyone know what the company loss prevention rules are for short-change? Here's the scenario: About a week ago I had a customer buy some things that came up to 10.71. I told her the amount. She dug in her pocket and pulled out a wad of cash which was a 10 and a 1 rolled up inside the 10. So I said that is 10...
for hiring people? "flexible schedules, competitive benefits, etc" that didn't last long. Right about the time those commercials went off, things went to ****.
I work in a big Kroger store, I think one, if not the biggest in the Mesquite, TX, and possibly Dallas area. Our seafood case is probably a good 15 feet long, never actually measured. The meat service case is just as big. And there are only two people working seafood. Been this way for at least a couple year...
I have a dental appointment tomorrow and I put the request in about a month ago. I'll be damned if they STILL put me on the schedule to work at the time my appointment is. what I'm thinking about doing is not showing up for work and going to my dental appointment. (They do NOT need to know what kind of work the...
Does your store get those obnoxious demo people in your store about every 3 months or so. Selling overpriced pillows, cleaning supplies, etc. Their constant announcements every 15 minutes are ridiculous-to say nothing of the customers complaining. And most of the stuff gets returned anyway-an...
Please no harassing posts responses.....I am seeking some answers. Do you have any "special needs" people who work in your store? Are they an assent or a hinderance? What are the pros and cons of working with these people? Many thanks.
It's been a little over 4 months since I was let go from Kroger. well recently I went back into my old store and I noticed they are doing Taste of Italy again. Why? It failed last time and they are doing the same crap again. Sounds like the clinical definition of insanity to me.
