My store is always cold and it seems like the air conditioning is on instead of the heat. I was sitting in our break room yesterday, and a blast of icy cold air was coming from the vents. I was told that management had no control over this, and that the temperature is actually regulated from a central loc...
I am a assistant manager, and I'd like to say a few things: Courtesy Clerks: 1. When we call you to bag, we mean now. Not when you feel like it. Yes, I know we all have jobs to do, and whe you may be busy, you need to remember CUSTOMER FIRST. Without them, you'd be unemployed. So unless you are on a break, off t...
So what is the deal with vendors? The lady that hired me was telling me about all the different brands stocked by vendors. I had no idea so many things were brought in and stocked by outside companies. Are there many things in the Drug/GM dept. that are done by vendors? I found this interesting.
Hey all. I'm a grocery head clerk, and I make a one dollar premium above the top pay rate , and am full time. I was pretty much at the bottom pay rate before I got the head clerk position, and part time. If I step down after 1 year being head clerk, will I keep my f/t and top pay rate, just lose the premium? The re...
Well, after about 2.5 years of bouncing around at different jobs, I am now back working at Kroger. I remembered this forum and how I used to waste time on the store computer reading posts back in the day. So here I am. Back once again. This job is something easy I can do while going to school, so that's my exc...
hello, I received a wow buck about a week ago lol and I'm on the great people.me website under the wow buck section, and I'm all the way to the checkout but I cannot for the life of me find out where I am supposed to enter the code on the back of my wild book so that I may complete my purchase. The only thing that i...
This company makes a little under 2 BILLION a year and yet each and every year, or in the case of District Q, every new contract, they come up with ways of getting rid of full-timers and firing people willy nilly. This is a company I've spent 15 years of my life with, and credit them to pulling me off the stre...
I was told during orientation that as a part-timer in produce I would receive 1 blue shirt and an apron. I could buy additional blue shirts if I wanted for $8 a piece. Is this true and if so does one go thru the store or have to order them from some...
I went online to check my paystub and Kroger has screwed up my paycheck. This time they paid me 1 hour too much. I worked 7 hours on Thanksgiving Day, but was scheduled 8 hours. They let us go an hour early since the store closed at 4:00 pm and they had us scheduled until 5:00 pm. I clocked in and out that d...
antone who works in MS, do they schedule you according to seniority? Or mix it up? And does the CSC have the right to schedule you on your unavailable day?
I went through my interview and then went through the orientation for Drug/GM. I'm scheduled to be at the training center for the 2 training classes tomorrow at 8 AM. I'm doing both in one day. What should I expect for tomorrow? I've never worked for Kroger so I'm totally new.
Normally, I'd often come to the defence (yeah, defence) of courtesy clerks because of how much **** is rolled down towards them. Then, there's clerks like this guy: He just stood there for more or less 15 minutes while being on his phone. How do I know it was roughly 15 minutes? B...
My Boss needs an incident report about myself and another employee not getting along. I left a message for my rep but the Mgr. need this in 24 hours. What should I do.
How does the manager select what order the names are on the schedule? Is there a way to put the manager then back-up at the top and then list everyone else by seniority?
started working for Kroger last month and have heard mixed reviews on the union. I am a produce clerk in a ft worth texas store. Any thoughts from those of you who been around for a while..Thanks
What say you? False, I say. Consider:Kroger is already the 4th-lowest-paying company in the US with no pure-grocery competitors below it.The Kroger niche isn't, "We're the dirt-cheapest thing out there in food." Charge a penny more for the processed-junk items, and compensate resp...
Alright this here is a post I actually put up on facebook back when it happened in July. I have been putting off sharing it on here simply because I didn't want to even see anything that said Kroger. That is how much I despise the place. But the more I think about it, the more I feel I should share it. Just so pe...
