I was hoping some of you could fill me in on the Management Training Program... About how much does someone in the program make? How much does a Co-Manager make? Once you complete the program are you placed into a role of Co-Manager or must you apply to open positions? Will you be a Co-Manager in the s...
Read the recently expired union contract, I went full time after working 25 months, In 5 weeks I will have my 5 year anniversary. My seniority was knocked down by 1 year giving my the pay classification of 1 year full time. In the contract it states "Effective May 19, 2002 part time employees who wo...
Our schedule is posted by noon on Friday, then they give 24 hours to make changes. Eschedule has to be posted by noon on Saturday. I noticed today on the paper copy the manager took away my 8 hours on Thursday and is making me work 4 hours on one of my scheduled days off. I checked ecshedule again today wh...
Really have two questions. What is the standard at your store for candy replenishment on the check stands? and who is supposed to be responsible for it the most? . In my store, it is apparently the overnight sco clerk's duty to do it. I recently got moved to overnight SCO, and most of the time I come i...
So my last lead resigned and the new one got fired, so I'm pretty much the last man standing with seniority that management doesn't hate. They're probably going to ask if I will be the lead (several managers have commented on it already), is it worth it? What are the responsibilities/stresses/etc?
Does anybody else feel awkward/nervous to go into your Kroger store on your day off? I always get nervous because I'm afraid that they'll ask me to work.
I am a drug gm assistant department head and I have been given the task of shrinking my 13 carts of backstock, plus my new items cart and my fast movers cart, which is a total of 15 carts, down to eight carts. I wrote down on a piece of paper all of my sections including the fast movers and new items and I got a to...
So I recently checked my E-Schedule online and also seen how I had a check issued out to me this past Thursday. It didn't even cross my mind that that day was payday. Question is...where do I pick the check up at; the service desk? And am I able to pick my check up on a day when I'm not working? I want to go and p...
I work in deli and were like the "worst" dept Kroger has (this is a proven fact, just ask our co-workers, the sales figures and our store management) No matter how much work they pile on we must get it all done using one/two person crews. That means that when someone is taking a break and custom...

I'm currently trying to work my way through school. I've got my availability set for three days per week, (Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday) as it's impossible for me to work any more than that. However, my manager has been scheduling me to work on Saturdays when it's very hard for me to be available. I hav...
Me and another guy were hired weeks apart at the same pay rate. I went full time at 2 years and have been full time for 3 years, while he stayed part time for 5 years. He now makes another $1.25 more than me doing less, working less, and less availability. I was penalized for going full time, while he's been t...
I know that this sounds crazy but I have a none related to this site question for advice. I need help with my home, I live in a cluttered house and I have no idea how I can get it all cleaned up on my own. It is from over the years, and every room clutter is stacked with hardly no room to walk. Its BAD!!! I live wi...
In the past I've heard of store manager's kids being degenerates. I recently heard a demoted store manager has a son with long criminal record so I looked him up on mugshots.com and there he was. Another time a came into work and was asked did you here about Mr. ____'s daughter leaving her baby at ho...
I start as a back-up on Sunday. I am currently maxed out for part time pay. I understand that the back-up position gets a $0.50 raise. I was wondering if i would get max pay for full time starting Sunday, or if i would have to work the 8 weeks straight at 40 hours before getting the full time rate? Is it a possi...
For real, old farts need to just roll over and D I E. They apparently have nothing better to do than cruise around stores all day--Kroger, Walmart, etc.----and whine and cry and bitch abut high the prices have gotten since they were 17. Hey Gramma and Grampa Colostomy Bag: It ain't 1931 any more. Grow...
So I have a rare day off today. The windows are all open at the house because the weather has been nice. Woke up this morning to the sound of rain around 8, 8:30 a.m. Made me think about the rain at the store. A few days ago, I went to Wal-Mart, found what looked like a decent rain suit (pants and jacket) for aro...
