I would like to wish everyone a happy fourth of July. I hope that those of you who had to work managed to take off early so you can spend time with your friends and loved ones. Let the fireworks begin! And to quote Lee Greenwood: God bless the USA!
Ok, my name is not Ms. White. I made it up. But at least I have a name on here. It's annoying to read these posts with anonymous after anonymous posting. Geesh, now hard could it be too make something up?
Yesterday I head into work and as I'm heading into the store I get a call asking where I'm at, I was supposed to be there at 8. Well I had written my schedule down but lost it and when I checked e-scedule it said I worked 8:30-5. Well I stayed to 5 to get my hours. My question is if e-schedule isn't going to ma...
So my questions are as followed; 1. What do you typically do within each mentioned department ? ( produce, natural foods, bakery) <--- I do understand this varies from store to store but i would like a more detailed explanation on "what" you exactly do based on personal experience 2. Do...
What is it like in the states where grocery stores carry wine? There is a petition right now to have the city vote on it and we have one in the store for people to sign but I really don't want to carry wine unless they give us a full time wine expert because you know people will be asking and we'll be like ummmmm...
If I come in as a customer, I am told by management that I have to greet and provide assistance to customers. Who do I talk to in regards to this treatment? He also quizzes me about customer service while I'm on breaks, lunch, or off the clock. I want to put an end to being singled out by Pat Coe.
So last night I was only scheduled a 4 hour shift from 5-9. I had to do breakout and clean up. Breakout took me until about 7 but the bread wasn't thawed so i went and cleaned the donut case, took back trash, etc. By the time I was done doing all that, it was 8:30. Which gave me an extra half hour to package cooki...
I work at a kroger in texas and i work two jobs. At kroger and at a security company. One day when i was suppose to be at kroger i was called in to work a new position at my security job. I forgot to tell kroger about it until the next day. Now i have not been scheduled for this whole week. I have read on other posts...
i think the way we have to condition actually makes the shelves look less full. i thought the basic idea of all shelf stocking was to make sure the product was fronted and faced to make it appear to be full. this blocking stuff looks sloppy to me
Was anyone else offended? during our last dept head meeting , the K-tv segment was about engagement. the lady addressed the fact that some of our employees may be said to be 'shy' with customers and not able to do the a$$ kissing dance with customers... she basically said that its not an excuse to be shy...
My store director at a certain Smiths store has summed up any inquiries I had about why we are so understaffed and treated like crap, these are his exact words, "The sooner you realize we don't give a **** about you and your family, the further you'll go in this company." What great words of in...
I weigh 325 lbs. and work the night stock crew, and this past week my knees were killing me and it made it so painful to do my work!!! And it is because I started walking on my days off to try and get exercise to lose the weight. Plus,I started using the kiosk in the pharmacy to check my blood pressure and it i...

This is more of a rant, I just need to get it off my chest and forget about it. I was working up at the service desk, while my coworker was doing hoppers in the back office. The phone is ringing but I'm working with a customer on lottery (he was unsure of what was drawing today and tomorrow so I had to walk him...

The thing is i was in the back washing dishes and i couldnt take it out. the next day he complained about it and now is going to th...
Alright fellow coworkers from far, far away! I'd appreciate your input. I've been working at food 4'more' for about 2 years and a half, and i'm owed 2 years of backpay. I was being paid u.c wage, even after I had been promoted to another department (meat). It took them a year to finally put my promotion th...
