I'm new and just received the days I will be training. But i applied to one store but they have me training at another Kroger that is 30 minutes away. Is this normal? Or are they trying to make me work for another store because if so I will have to turn down the job. Theres no reason I should have to drive 30...
A flyer was posted just recently at our store that E schedule is coming soon. Are there any of my fellow Kroger comrades on this forum all ready on it? If so I have a few questions for myself and or others have asked me. 1. How does it work with seniority and scheduling? is there a possibility those w/ 20+ye...
Today they had me come in at 5 am to get things cleaned. Well because no one can put things back where they were gotten from, I couldn't mop. Granted I should have looked, but I feel that I shouldn't have to look for something that should've been placed back where it was gotten from. Now they are telling me t...
Ok so you have the kroger app on your phone for e coupons and the plus card for the cashier to scan. At my store we are not allowed to scan the loyalty card off a phone? Doesn't make sense . Kroger is the one that made the app and we have to tell customers sorry I can't scan this? It doesn't make sense to me. is my s...
I wonder what you guys think of this, but I went into a Walgreen's the other day that I've been shopping at for years. There's a new manager there who has been there a couple of months, and from what I can tell, seems to have a very anti-customer attitude. He seems to be constantly on the lookout for potenti...
Just curious, has anyone been asked/told by management to come in and work a day on their vacationduring an "emergency?" I know they technically cannot have you come in if you don't want to; no matter what, but I was curious... Our management liks to "intimidate" at times. We ha...
Was offered a position as a department lead/non-salary manager. I've been working at a Kroger family store (Fry's) for 10 months in a few days and my manager just quit. The assistant store manager called me one early morning and said "We have a job position and your manager suggested you over e...
They just rolled out the new signs and crap here in Central for the "New" Lower prices and such, and I'm not exactly seeing a difference other than more crap in the aisles, more fake self praise and more unhappy employees, not to mention the god awful t-shirts. Oh, and the nail-on-chalkboar...
dept mang, told me too leave today because I said I can not work on the weekends anymore for other part time job, and said we DO NOT WORK AROUND OTHER JOB SO LEAVE NOW. the poster upstairs said flexable hours, but if your gay that does not apply. they got my e-schle. block so I can not use it on my laptop told...
So both me and my assistant meat manager have been working on our management packet. As of last week he had his second inventory, my first. He is now completely done. What will it take for them to promote him up so I can take his position? All I have left is a walkthrough with the Manager and Meat Coordin...
I was wondering how much per week you pay for health insurance. I work for a Kroger in the Central Division in Indiana. I pay $10 per week for single coverage (full time since 05). I believe Kroger employees with dependents pay around $ 23.00 per week. Our Local UFCW 700 and Kroger have been in contrac...
Hi all, I recently started working at Kroger about two weeks ago, and so far, so good. Well I am 15 and was hired as a courtesy clerk and have been there long enough to join the union. Well a thought had occurred to me, I am a student and was hired during the summer and I am kind of worried that they will let me go...
Hi all, first off let me explain that Kroger (or i should say Dillons) was the only ones hiring out of the 150+ job applications i filled out shortly after coming back from deployment in Iraq so i took the job as a night stocker. I have been working this position for the last 6 months. Ok, now my Kroger war s...
I requested the 16th of July off because I have, or I should say HAD an ear appointment. I out it in 2 weeks IN ADVANCE in VERY EASY to read lettering (I.E. I- have- an- ear- appointment July- 16th) and they STILL pencilled me in. Guess they can't read? Now I have to go through the hassle of rescheduling, and...
I'm wondering how long does it usually take to get full time? At my store we just hads some full time jobs posted and at te top of the list were people with over 24 years experience. I've only been there 6 years but work harder than most of the full timers. It ain't right that I should have to wait because o...
I'm 15 and recently started working at Kroger for about two weeks now and it its really starting to tick me off!!! Now don't get me wrong the atmosphere in the store is amazing. The employees are cool and management is really helpful. Those were the pros... Now the Cons... One thing that ticks me off is th...
So, we will all know that to take days off you let them know a certain time before they make the schedule right? Yet this fat a** co-worker of mine will just decide she has a doc's appointment and leave at like 9 in the morning (our department opens at 8) and she was schedule to work from 8-2. And it's just me a...
So I requested a day off this upcoming week. I put in the request on the escheduler two months ago. It still says pending on the e-schedule calendar. I checked the schedule at work and they scheduled me. Seriously?? We had to watch a stupid video about the escheduler and this was supposedly the kind of c...
