A couple weeks ago one of the lazy-ass baggers didn't show up for three days straight. The funny part is he showed up on payday to get his check. Its the first time he did this and no one had heard about him being sick, death in the family, meteor falling from the sky onto his car, etc. Given his less-than-st...
At our store, cashiers remain at their registers with lights turned on when they're working, if they don't have a customer, they just stand and wait. Now we got a new FE manager, and she's saying that whenever there's no customer, they have to go to the back of their register and direct traffic to their r...
I know write ups stay in your file 3-9 months after being written the lay dormant in your file (don't let anybody say they go away, they NEVER go away. EVER). But what about suspensions. For example say if a co-worker is suspended for 1-5 days, howblong does the suspension stay in your file? Is it for a sp...
So I've written in here before about how a few months back I was written up for insubordination to a Front End Supervisor. I refused to sign the paperwork at the time and manager and co-manager were in the room with me. Co-manager told me, and I paraphrase, "You can leave now and we will be okay with t...
So if you are red for the week on half green hours you are required to go to a meeting. They always send the comanagers or the store manager. Well my store manager said that she was tired of going and was going to send me. That's fine I'll go because I'll tell them the truth. I have no problem telling the hig...
I put in my availabilty about a month ago and its still pending. The schedule comes out tomorrow and my availability is supposed to go into effect the 24th. I'm worried they just aren't looking at it and I'll be scheduled for hours I can't do. (I'm starting College)
Our district manager (Ken Smith) is only allowing a $20 allowance for food at store manager meetings. lets see... with 20 people showing up that is $1 a head. So hmmm, what can we serve a crew of 20 on a twenty dollar bill.... 2 Packs of John Morrel Hot Dogs boiled in water 2 packs of marked down kroger...
Does eschedule require the schedule writers to accept or decline availability requests, or can they just overlook them and you get scheduled for hours you can't do?
Hey everybody! Okay I just starated working in the produce departnent two weeks ago. I came in & did the computer training then I trained on the floor for the rest of the week. It was around 30 hours. Then this week comes around & I have no hours scheduled. Today I looked at the schedule for NEXT we...
The Signature store I'm at is set to have two additional self check-out lanes put in, bringing the total up to six. Only in Marketplaces have I noticed more than four, so I'm assuming either all Signature stores are going to get additional self check-out lanes (probably so that they can get away with sc...
Does anyone know if e-schedule takes seniority into account when generating a schedule? I've heard at least three answers (no, it only goes by how long you've been employed, and that it gives priority to full-timers 1st), and am not sure who to believe. Or does it differ from store to store?
I work in the produce department and this new hire is so damn lazy. He can't do anything right, so we always put him on corn duty. He even does that really slow. I hate working with him because it makes my workload harder. I've talked with the produce manager and he feels the same way. I don't think he can get...
