I have worked at Kroger before. I know the mindset of a lot of employees and managment at the store. There is this whole atmosphere of filing greivences when something happens you don't like in the store, bumping schedules and times, doing your best to right any wrong Kroger does on purpose or accident...
I just got next week's schedule that was done under the e-scheduling and I was surprised and upset. It was all screwy! It has me working till midnights on a couple days when the bagger's night shift ends at 11 and gave me only 4 days to work when my availability is 5. I wasn't the only one affected by this....
If any of you recall my rantings in another post it was that I was under the impression that a lawsuit was the result of my pay being reduced. Well, I was wrong. It was a fluke on their end. I'm sorry if I wasted anyone's time with my silliness.
Today my store called in someone for sacking assistance... from a Kroger in another nearby city. They gave him a full 8 hour shift, but still. That's when I know my store seriously needs to start hiring some more help soon.
Is there a difference in pay between a bakery clerk and a cake decorator ? I would like to work in the bakery department but would be more interested in the cake decorating job versus just being a bakery clerk. Are some people in bakery specifically just cake decorators or do they do everything in the d...
i am a bagger i am in the union i still have to do onsite training(did some training already) My questions Can i quit the union? What happens if I do? I ask this because the union obviously does not do ****. 7.25/hour is not something to be proud of. So to me it is like throwing $6 a week away.
I would just like to rant for a second here. I just think it's comical that managers, acsm, supervisors etc all treat the word "overtime" like a bad word. All overtime is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN no matter what! Yet our store manager asked one of our ACSMs to come back in the middle of the day to be ma...
Today I called in to work three hours ahead of time because my dad is in the hospital after having a quadruple bypass operation. I was off the day of and the day after the surgery but today he was having some minor problems so I called in. The bitch of a co-manager I had to talk to told me I needed to try and co...
What do I have to do to get my eschedule availablility request approved faster? I'm 15 and thought school work would kill me when actuality its vise versa. When school first started I was usually working from 15 to 18 hours. The manager left for vacation and let some one else make a schedule anf I only had...
GRRR!!!!! I swear, this company sometimes.......kinda makes you wanna think of burnin the mother down. (ofcourse i wouldnt do that.) I bend over ass backwards for this place and dont even get the common courtesy of vaseline and a reach-a-round! We really need a union :(
I just started working at Dillions and I am on the Night Crew. The scheduling is kinda strange for me Is it a day behind? If my schedule says : Sunday 11pm to 7am. That means I work Sunday night to 7am Monday morning right?
How common is it for your store to break product? How often does it often involve you? I know someone in our grocery who managed to drop a few cases of spaghetti sauce in glass jars. Quite a mess. I didn't hear much about it though. One time my boxcutter slipped and it punctured three cans of cola from a six...
Ok, I can understand wanting the store fully crewed at all times if possible, but an incident happened to me a week ago. Basically what happened was, I got a mild sore throat and runny nose that progressively got worse and worse throughout the day. I work nights and called in a good 12 hours before my shif...
Seems like a lot of write-ups going on as of late at the stores to senior employees. Any dept heads on here ever get written up for something so stupid that left you scratching your head and pissed you off at the same time?
I was looking at the sheet today that has the grades 1-5 on how we did. Someone gave us a 4 and made this comment "I'm hard to please" why did they give us a 4? That is their problem that they are hard to please. I have noticed several things like this. Does the corp office read these before they sen...
-I've noticed when I'm going over the order on my aisles that sometimes a product has a balance that is below the set minimum, but CAO still isn't bringing it in, and I'll have to order it myself. Anyone got any ideas why that's happening?
