My new meat dept. head has a thing for leaving the morning delivery to be broken down by the closing crew. Our truck comes in at 6 am so I believe it should be broken down first thing, as our last manager did. This guy leaves it for me and the other closer to do. $ of them in the morning and 2 of us at night. No reas...
So, I just want to get this out of the way. I work for one of the Kroger Sub Companies, Ralph's to be specific. Now, on to the meat of the post. I am wondering how I can have the company take 5 dollars out of my paycheck each week for the California State Tax, since I don't make enough each week to have it taken ou...
Does anyone know what the Legal Fund D is? Also, are there any repercussions of quitting the union? Like, would it be easier for them to fire you? They don't give me enough hours, and I'm tired of paying 9 dollars each check for it.
So Sunday morning I'm in the deli minding my own business when the store manager pulled the three of us there off to the side and told us that customer had just complained to him that a male and female employee were arguing loudly over "lumpy mashed potatoes". Problem is none of us knew what h...
Greetings fellow mutants! We all know how we're supposed to be customer focused, and get that almighty OSAT score up, and all that... BUT Is it just me, or doesn't it just chaffe your arse when a customer just walks up and starts asking for the location of something? No "Hi there" or "...
Thinking of switching departments (from front end) and I just wanted to know what you guys think about the departments. Please tell me what you think of yours in terms of: Pay Hours Full Time Feasibility Physical Difficulty Mental Difficulty Common Tasks Average Time Spent on a Register Your overa...
So it's come to my attention that whenever anybody works lot duty at my store, they think it is essentially a break. I'm not trying to tell anyone how to live, but I think that you should be able to get at least 6 carts in our lobby within 5 minutes. If you take 10 ****ing minutes to bring in 3 carts, put the dam...
So, my store prints out the feedback that customers give on the surveys and puts it in the break room. I was reading one the other day and I was mentioned in one of the comments. The customer commented that Kroger needs to train cashiers on how to count money or only hire those who can count money quickly an...
I'm getting sick of my job at Kroger. I don't really need the money right now and with the stress of college and working over 30 hours a week I'm constantly in a bad mood or exhausted. I'm also incredibly pissed off because I was scheduled two days off this weekend. However, my manager decided that they ne...
So I was taking a late lunch yesterday (worked a 5-2 but took my lunch at 10:45 Due to unforeseen problems with a no show. No problem... OT right?? WRONG!! Not even 15 min into my lunch I got called up front to sack. Ignored. Next it was lot duty. Ignored. So our ASM comes tearing back there like a bat out of he...
This is what they say my rate is. My 3rd shift $1.00 premium does not show up here. They have me classified as a Cashier/Clerk. I started 3rd shift Grocery Stock. I haven't been trained to be a Front End Cashier yet while my job is supposed to be listed as 3rd Shift Stock/Cashier.. Last time I worked at Krog...
I know we get 10% and everything, but on average how long does it take for new hires to get it? Its been about three weeks since start date, and it has still remained elusive. Is that standard, or do I need to go talk to someone about getting it to start working. Only asking since it will actually save some do...
I am growing very concerned.. hopefully I can sort this out. The first year I got 24 hrs of vacation, I actually just had 16 remaining and I used them for California a few weeks ago. After my 2nd anniversary working for fred meyer, I saw that I have now 72 hrs of vacation total. Is that normal to give 72 hrs o...
So, I've been scheduled as a courtesy clerk since school started on September 2nd. Most of our clerks are in high school so we're short Monday-Friday during the day. I've been on the schedule as a clerk for the last three weeks. This week will be week 4. However, they do put me on a register when we're back...
So I worked til 11 pm yesterday in the produce department. Trucks usually don't arrive til 3 or 4 in the morning and 3rd shift grocery unloads them for us. Well, at 10:30, they came over the speaker and said "Produce: Delivery at the back dock." Walked back with the other person working with m...
