I don't know about other stores, but for the past couple of months, I've had customers thinking we fill the grab & go with leftovers form the day before. When I inform customers about the grab&go so they don't have to wait, they respond with " I don't want yesterday's leftovers, I want my stuf...
At my store the managment are bitching constantly about the cashiers scan rates, and how we need to get them up so there will be more hours for the front end, and how we need to get them up before that que vision stuff begins. While I don't work on the register that often, I have a few friends that do. And no...
All depts running on a skeleton crew. They never want to give us help or hire people even though they announce that they are hiring over the intercom 40 ****ing times in a 8 hour work day. Then you have someone in your Dept that gets sick or has to have surgery and your ****ed. Managers then ask why the work i...
The stress of the pharmacy is getting to me (phones, angry customers, drive-through, hot/cold conditions due to the drive through being on the west side of the building). It's gotten to the point where i dread coming in to work each day and even have ibuprofen in my car and personal storage area in the s...
Took me and another department manager from another store working several overnights to pass muster. Exactly how are you supposed to keep those standards everyday when you have to do extraordinary things to get there in the first place?
I have been working for 1 month in the GM department. The department has been short-handed for quite some time and in fact the manager started the week before I did...he had not been working in a grocery store in the past but is a very nice man and seems to be a leader kind of guy. So the department was kind o...
Hello, I have a question dealing with Kroger's disciplinary actions when it comes to call ins and walking off the job without telling management. Note - This is for a friend of mine. My friend has been employed with Kroger for almost two years now. They are in the grocery department. Started off as a co...
I am writing a paper about Kroger. Here are some questions we are going to address in the paper. What type of reward/recognition system does Kroger have in place? Describe leadership structure? How is conflict managed in store? Are there any programs to manage employee stress? How does Kroger meas...
I'm moving in August and there are no Kroger locations in that area. But I searched using the Kroger website and Payless popped up so I'm assuming Payless is owned by Kroger? So does anyone know if it's possible to transfer? Otherwise I'll just be quitting, with notice of course.
I just started working at Kroger 2 days ago and I was curious about the dress code concerning the pants. I do have a pair of black slacks and a khaki dickie pantsbut I was also wondering if it would be noticeable to wear a dark black Jean? You can't really tell it's a jean and it looks like the dickies but of c...
What is krogers policy for those that are curently employed. I think that my manger found out im a big pot head and wants to get rid of me. I know i can pass the **** saliva tests but can i still get fired
If you give up a fulltime job voluntarily, I know you have to wait 1 year to sign for that same job, but if a part time backup position became available, could you sign it before the year was up?
If I did, I could get five or seven or ten mini-breaks a day during my eight hour shift, on top of a regular break. Of course, I'd be giving up years of my life in exchange for that... but hey, it would make my life easier in the short term!! Seriously though, it irritates me to no end to see people in the deli, p...
Im a department manager who is generally considered excellent at his job. We had our management team switched mostly out and now I'm losing 30-50 hours a week to the front end. Im still getting by but cleaning and customer happiness is suffering greatly. We go hours without eggs and milk at night. Is th...
I was wondering if anyone could help me with this. I had the store manager put me in the computer to use the handheld for ordering and scanning but for some reason CAO isn't showing up on the gun for me. Is there something I can do to get it on there? Or do I need to talk to the store manager again. Please help
So today was my 3rd day and I'm already ready to never bother showing again. First of all they hired me for O.N. stocker (which I requested) then put me straight on days as a c c. and the store I'm at is balls out crazy every damned day, all day. And I mean NO help, we're on a skeleton crew. Second, third and al...
So i've been at Kroger for a little over 2 years now and recently I started working 40-48 hours pretty much every week since we are so understaffed. My past 30-40 checks were all over 32 hours so my question is how long do you have to have an average over 32 hours to get status 3?
