We're all familiar with IHOP, but one breakfast/diner chain called "Waffle House" has a pretty good footing throughout the South. And now I'd like to ask, for those that have eaten at one or both of these establishments, which do you prefer, and why? It could be anything from just the name...
I am sick of hearing how Walmart needs to make more money and the UFCW is backing them. In our town they start at $9.00 and may start up to $2.00 higher depending on experience. Many people at Kroger work for years to make what Walmart's starting salary. Our pay is joke and we are paying union dues so our uni...
I was just given my employee discount plus card (after two months of working at Kroger). Today, I used my card at another Kroger and bought a few Kroger brand items that it did not take off. We have a 10% discount in my district. My question is - does it take time for the card to get set up and loaded with the di...
If I use Kroger as a reference in a job application for work history, will the Kroger manager or who ever tell the new job that I was terminated? Or could the new job find out through background check?
So preface: It was a nine hour shift, and afterwards I had to do some light shopping. I just about passed out from heat exhaustion yesterday, and I've been dealing with the aftereffects all day. I even left my keys in the bathroom for like an hour. Anyways when I was going through self-checkout the girl o...
I am soon to start in a Order Selector position for Kroger. Is there any few tips or helpful information someone can give me regarding this jobs. I want to be more than well prepared for this job. Thx.
I just started a job as courtesy clerk. My training consists of bunch of vidoes and quiezzes. Did anyone else have to do this? How many hours did it take to watch all of them. Is it OK if I take more than one day to watch all the training videos? My boss said I had to finish them as soon as possible
I recently became the most senior employee on the front end (aside from our accountant, but he gets his 40 hours a week there so it doesn't really matter). There's 5 or 6 other full-timers in my department, the rest are part-time. How does all this factor into scheduling? There used to be an employee who...
Hi all, I'm a new employee at Fred Meyer. I received a letter from HR through another coworker about a hiring step that I need to complete. The first step is to "login to KnowMe and navigate to Onboarding under the Home menu." I've never heard of KnowMe and have failed to find it online. Is this...
Wal-Mart has born the brunt of social advocates for years, but Kroger hasn't. Why??? I really, REALLY thought that Kroger would be the better company before I joined... and was sorely disappointed. If you are looking to get out of Kroger but fear the big yellow smiley, or have just applied at Kroger an...
If I decide to work at Kroger will they meet my current pay rate (9.00/hour) or will they start me out on their base pay? I have worked there once before and was at minimum wage during my stint.

Hi all, My job apparently called up my parents, because my step father is working in the Realestate department, and was apparently going to fire me because I'm working 'too slow'. I'm not sure what goes along the lines of being a slow worker, because, despite the fact that I haven't been properly trai...
