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.
They recently moved me to another store as a promotion, and now my home store is severely understaffed (what a surprise) and they called me in to help today. I did go in to help but how sad is this company that they are willing to pay me sixth day pay, overtime (i'm not sure if i'm going to get manager rate for...
How do I even begin to learn how to quit Kroger? On top of being so bu out from working 6 days straight continuously (split weeks), I only make $260 a week after taxes and I am full time at $9/hr. This is oblivipisly poverty and my store manager won't even allow me to transfer at a store closer to home until my...
since grocery is a skeleton crew anymore, the DSD clerk is having to do his/her job and help with several other tasks. Aside from checking in vendors and unloading trucks, they have to run bread on bread clerk's off days, clean up the hallway, tons of markdowns from resets, assisted short dates for gr...
I work at a store that does $300k a week. The actual size of the store and volume of customers seems about average. There are 10 checklanes including sco, a fuel center. The store serves a mostly working class population so that while there is a pretty good volume of customers, the dollar amount per orde...
Even though I've only been at one store, I've heard people from other stores and truck drivers say that my store is the only one or one of very few stores that pallets have to be transported via sales floor to the designated departments. Are there really stores out there that you can take a pallet from the...
Okay I have a question. I've been getting scheduled for the past month or two 7-3 every weekend. I'm a bagger and I have to clean the bathrooms every morning and all that. The bagger who usually does it gets the weekends off now. He has more seniorty than me. Is there anyway to get out of this. Now I like gett...
Okay, Who else is dealing with some major shakeups of your department? People being moved out/in, hours being reduced overall and new hires getting more hours than seniority people? We will be in bad shape come the holidays! And, we've reduced your hours, but you still need to help Produce, Floral, F...
A couple of months ago, our manager held a meeting where she was trying to emphasize a point about not making trains of carts and only push 6 at a time(which we obviously won't do). In this meeting, she kept referring to metal areas where we hold carts but our store doesn't have these. When a bagger correc...
I'm about 5 weeks into grocery so relatively new. Beginning this week my manager showed me how to scan backstock and edit stuff like bohs, mins, and allocations in cao. This Sunday on backstock day I went through and thoroughly scanned everything that I have noticed being a problem for backstock in ho...
