I thought about posting this in the other dairy thread but wasn't sure it would be seen. im moving to dairy next week. I was told my hours would be a max of 21, which is absolutely fine with me. But I do have two questions. Someone told me grocery depts don't work on Sundays or Wednesdays In my store. Do...
I have been waiting for seven weeks for a grievance meeting and it has not happened yet. I have 27 years with Kroger and the manager suspended me seven weeks ago accusing me of a customer complaint that did not happened. everytime I contact my union rep he will not call or email me back to let me know someth...
in the Cincinnati and Dayton oh area Kroger is having a job fair for the next few weeks. supposedly they want to hire 1200 people for all departments. my question is why. they are cutting hours now. are they trying to get rid of the long time people? is it because of the affordable care health plan? anybo...
Well at work today I was looking at the schedule to find out who was closing in the deli tonight since I left at 8. Well there was supposed to be a person there until 7, me until 8 and the closer until 10. Well the girl that was supposed to be there until 7 switched with another lady but she wasn't allowed to w...
I am currently a courtesy clerk. I was told a month ago that I was getting promoted to a cashier, but it hasn't happened yet due to a lack of training hours available. Today, the dairy manager asked me if I wanted to join the dairy department. My question is what do you do if you work in the dairy departm...
so today I was try to take the black plastic bins back to where we store them, next to the bailer, but some jackass left a cart full of product in the hallway and I bumped into it with my cart. All the plastic bins (despite supposedly being able to stack neatly) went everywhere. I cut the **** out of my leg a...
So, tonight I was called by my store manager because I apparently didn't show up for a shift I was supposed to work. Tonight is Saturday night. Today (Saturday) I was scheduled to work from 8am to 2pm, and according to my e-schedule I was scheduled 10pm to 6am on Sunday. Basically the story behind this is...
ok we've got a girl in the deli who has less seniority than I do (she has roughly 5 years), but still gets all day shifts (7-330 and 8-430), never works a night, doesn't work saturdays or sundays (EVER!). Now that eschedule has rolled around, she's still got the same schedule. Still 40 hours. Seems li...
I have heard of a lot of stupid stuff happening with this company, but what I found out recently took me aback. Apparently our district manager had the bright idea to move the grocery crew, sans dairy and drug/gm, to overnights. The reason behind this is the dm doesn't want them to be in the way of the cust...
I have vacation this week, and when I went to check my schedule, it said I worked on Monday a 6:30 to 11:00, but I am on vac that week. Could I be written up if I just don't show that day? I'm considering just not showing up. I made a coy of my schedule in case they give me grief.
If 3 people within a dept all request the same day off, will eschedule automatically make the one with least seniority work that day? We've had days with 3 people off and our dept manager works it out by moving people around and having decent coverage, but will eschedule let this happen? I'm afraid th...
Is this thing a big of a disaster as I think it'll be? They just started that here and now instead of a regular service desk there's a roped off line thing for money services. So now when someone has an actual customer service problem they have to wait for the people using the store as a bank to get done? Or wh...
I woke overnight as a stocker...Recently our night groc manager transfered to another store..we now have a new groc manager and hes not walking the store..he allows CAO to order.. now our backroom is packed with backstock... ok the co manager is threatening to write the whole night crew up if we dont g...
This new Esched is terrible. Everything worked before and now it is going to bring down the morale and make people quit. If you are a Lead or Dept Manager you have to work till 10pm once a week, and get later shifts? So basically if you are higher up in a dept then you are getting screwed. Its not worth the ext...
Well I've been with Kroger two years and I was finally getting 32 - 38 hours a week. Checked my schedule yesterday and I'm back at 20 hours a week. Thanks Kroger! I finally had some seniority but a girl transferred from another store, and 4 people have been transferred from other departments to the fr...
Title says it all, I'm just wondering, cause there's all this Express HR stuff and HR info and all that, I'm wondering if there's a way to check when we're next needed for work, especially those of us who's schedules tend to be a bit fluctuating.
