I was hired as a courtesy clerk, and worked for nine months before being upgraded to cashier. During that time, I made minimum wage ($7.25/hour). On Kroger's ExpressHR website, it says my raise to $7.40/hour will not take effect until six months *after* my promotion to cashier (so, not until January...
We had gotten out produce load in and we are screwed!! Half of what we ordered got sent to the WRONG store, whomever dropped the pallet off crashed it into another pallet and it toppled over, so now we have mashed up produce mixed in with another pallet we have so my dept head asked me to clean it up while he r...
My store is starting to put the e--scheduling program in and I have noticed some comments about it. What are the pros and cons of this program? And correct me if I'm wrong but the printed version should still be done, yes?
Last Friday and Saturday were fine. We had enough people to get stuff done... with the help of all the people in other departments that were called up front to help open lanes and sack, and several supervisors and co-managers jumping on registers. That's fine. Things got taken care of. Then there's to...
I have been a cashier/ drug dept helper for the past year now. So lately they started writing people up because of our holes during primetime. I have been off for two days but I hear there's a write up waiting for me. Hypothetically speaking could I get fired for tearing that write up in two in front of my bo...
Hi, my store has started playing more variety at night and this song caught my attention. The lyrics are as follows. I believe they're accurate: "can we make it to the open sky we can reach it if we try if you're touching me tonight and our love just feels so right" The singer is female, and i...

Ok so yesterday I talked to my grocery manager and he said it was cool if I got changed to daytime hours because I've been having really bad trouble working over nights and getting up etc. I just hate it. Plus I have thyroid so it's even tougher for me to feel motivated to get up every night like that. Today I...
Just recently became a cashier and had some questions. How does one print out a receipt to see the items on there before the customer has paid or how to scroll through the items on the screen? When I get a manager's special item and it doesn't scan do I just type in the upc and hit enter? Any other things wort...
Our college is now occuping an old Kroger building that has the rock facing with half globe lighting fixtures, I need to find a contractor or supplier of these lights. I have searched many different sites with no luck, and open for suggestions. Any info would be appreciated. thanks.
Well since e-scheduling was put into my store, our deli department has been getting screwed. The help is usually scheduled many hours apart. This past Sunday there were only three of us scheduled in the deli all damn day. Since the rollout of e-schedule we've lost 4 people. And hired only one to rep...
If you are doing lot service, do any of you keep found money? When I was courtesy clerk/utility I did all the time, especially when hours were cut way back, and the lower pay scale. I've never been seen to my knowledge, and if I was seen either they don't care, or its okay. I was told however, that Kroger don...
I went in to work today and on our scales, they had posted a message saying "never under...never under...never under..." As in, never go under what the customer wants even by a little bit. Seriously? And they're encouraging us to go "just a little bit over" what the customer w...
A full time co worker in my department decided to quit and walk off the job last week after working two hours. The next day he came back and spoke to the store director wanting his job back. He is not on the schedule this week. Apparently management says he can have his job back if he wants it because he w...
I became suspicious when it was in a different container. The ounces are the same but the new stuff isn't as thick because they've added more water. They've also increased the amount of artificial flavoring to try to cover it up. They think people don't notice things like that but they do.
