I've seen them hire for front end, produce, hell, I saw a couple of newbies in meat and seafood. But they are making strides to get at least one person into the deli to fix any "call out issues". If someone calls out, especially a closer, the second closer gets the shaft if no one else can com...
I've been working for Kroger for about 4 years now, been a Drug clerk for about 2. I have an excellent Drug Manager, he's taught me a lot and is grooming me for when he steps down within the next year or 2. I know pretty much all day-to-day operations, company objectives, and how to lead a team. The only thin...
Well, at least the people who make the "lot duty" schedule in the morning need to double-check things. I work from 3-9. Arrive at 3. The 'lot schedule has our main entrance working by Employee A. But Employee A is on PAL and can not bring in carts. I volunteer (stupidly) to do the job, which i...
I was told that I accumulated overtime and it has confused me. I came in on Tuesday at 4pm-8pm and then came in Wednesday at 3:30am-12pm. I was told that since there wasn't a 8hr gap between shifts that I should get overtime. This was told to me by coworkers and my dept manager. They told me to watch for it on...
Today one the guys I work with was taken upstairs and told by management he would have to change his availability or he wouldn't be getting any hours. Management is saying now that all the part timers in the deli were going to have to work 2 nights a week. Well this guy has custody of his kids and can only g...
I am a part-time courtesy clerk/bagger. Last week was more decent than usual initially, 19 hours, but then I was asked to stay longer on Friday and Saturday leading up to the Superbowl. In the chaos, I wound up with 31 hours and my store's work week ends after Saturday. But...after doing 6 hours on Sunda...
This weekend we had a "major snowstorm" predicted to hit us. We were so busy our manager made everyone stay over a minimum of 1 hour. To make things better, she didnt tell half of the employees. I only found out because the FEM was telling the cashier I was bagging for. I ended up with a 9 hour shi...
So my Kroger has been notorious for not paying me for the right amount of hours. This has been in the form of shortchanging me. Usually they fix this a couple paychecks later. However, this week I am not sure if they gave me more or less than I'm supposed to get. So here's the deal. Last week I think I...
So next week's schedule was posted. I have a wonderful 12 hours. Yay. But at least four of our courtesy clerks have PAL labeled into the boxes of the days that they work. One of them works four days next week and is "PAL" each day. What the hell is my store up to this time? I don't have "PAL&q...

When do we get a pay raise that's in our contract for Februar? Will it be on the next paycheck? and yes I am topped out on my pay. I work in Columbus ohio if that helps
I was scheduled from 2-10:30 tonight. We were so slow that the closing CSM let me leave a 1/2 hour early. I really had no complaints about it. I clocked out, grabbed my stuff, and left. I wasn't gonna stick around for another 1/2 hour when I was told that I could leave. There was really no point of even havin...
Lately our store hasn't been ordering cigarettes. We are always out. I went to get some coffee and cigarettes this morning and of course they were out again. I took the customer survey so I could get my 50 bonus fuel points. I said as long as I was going to have to go to another store for cigs I might as wel...
I used to buy my snacks and desserts from Kroger. The 24-count cookies, pie, angel food cake, and even the bollilo rolls. Unfortunately, I'll have to take my business to Tom Thumb instead. Everything got more expensive. The 24-count cookies had been reduced to 16, yet still costs $3.99 when I used t...
Why don't i have an option for this under express hr anymore? I wanted to see what my benefits were (I have an x under retirement plan on my w-2 also) and i don't have the Total Compensation link available anymore. All the others are there.
How is the healthcare changes going on your health insurance the union passed last year? How is the now spouse coverage going? What is it costing you for spouse coverage now plus yours? I must say mine is not going worth a crap.
I've just been told that I'm next in line to become a floor supervisor. One of the other supervisors said that they were just thrown into the mix, and had to learn a lot of the stuff by themselves, due to our store being busy and there being little time to do actual training. So does anyone on here know how to...
