I got hired at a Food 4 Less store back in October, and things haven't been going too well. I have no major problems with my co workers or mangement, its the customers and the enviroment of the store that I do not like. Since Food 4 Less caters to lower income people that can't afford the higher prices of oth...
I am currently looking into, "who" I need to get in contact with about this issue, I'm still not sure who. I was hired around Feb, 2013 Being hired at my local Kroger store, I was asked "Do you have any experience working in a grocery store?"I did not. I also did not have ANY understa...
It seems that who does our replenisment just grabs something next to the hole and fills it with that. It seems like every night at least 6 or 7 times i will try to stock something and find the wrong item where I need to stock something. Does this happen at any other stores. I have talked to the department he...
How many night stockers (non-department heads) write orders? Out of the seven grocery orders that are transmitted at my store the department writes only two. Just wondering if is normal throughout the company. We don't have a qualified backup position in our contract jurisdiction. It seems like...
Either I've been suspended for three weeks, or I've been terminated without notice. The Union is (theoretically) investigating things, as termination shouldn't be an option as this is my first suspension in four years. Still, I'm looking for a new job, but I don't know if I still have mine or not. I...
I'm so sick of my coworkers walking out of the deli and not coming back for long periods of time. I don't generally like to make waves, but I don't like being taken advantage of either. Today a girl went off for break at around 8:30 (if not earlier) and didn't come back til 9:15, and she insists she clocke...
I was reading up on the wage increases in my union hand book and I see that after you hit 12.20 as a grocery clerk the next increase is 13.95 starting in june. but it doesn't give a time frame as to how long that jump takes, it just says there after. What exactly does that mean?
OK! I Brought this issue up a few days ago, SWEEPS! Some of you claimed you did not know what I was talking about. So my question, Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Is this not a Kroger policy?
Anyone here represent what might be called the "3rd in charge" in your department? Your not the dept head or backup, but rather the next guy on the totem pole? I work in the deli (because even if I didn't, you wouldn't know) and I am this person. I have worked for this company for quite some t...
Had my first day in the deli at our store. They basically gave me a tour of the area and showed me how to run the slicers for 10 minutes. I was told that there was a huge turnover in the department. I think I found out why.. my two "trainers" came up missing half way into my very first 8 hour shi...

I go into my store today to pick some things up for my dad after having today and yesterday off. And after what seems to be a pattern when I get cosecutive days off something interesting happens. Well as I was leaving today I saw a sign on our front door stating that starting April 14th Our store will be cl...

I got wrote up for not doingtrash. The day I got wrote up for I wasn't even on the clock. When I am on the clock I do all my work and the camera will prove it.this is not fair to be put on a year probation for not doing your coworkers trash that they left. Just because they left it for me and I left it back for them....
Did anyone else in Dayton/Cinci get a text alert for a free pepperoni or salami? I bought a pack of pepperoni today, the type by the pizza sauce, and it wasn't free. :( Is it supposed to be a different type or something? I've never had problems getting the free stuff on my card before...
Just wondering how all my fellow kroger people really feel about their jobs like hate or in between. I have been with the company 16 years and some change and I can honestly say for the most part I really enjoy my job. While i may not agree with everything that goes on key retailing,loads of paperwork,...
