Worked from 10 last night until 6 this morning and now I have to pull my big girl pants up and work from 2 until 10. Just aggravated. Feeling exhausted after unsuccessfully trying my very best to go to sleep at a time which I am not accustomed. This will not be a fun day.

I have been working at Kroger for almost 9 years when suddenly I had my hours cut so much that I was reduced to part time status. I was at top pay, but now I make a little over $9 an hour now. I can barely afford to live as I am now being forced to borrow and take money from other people in order to pay my bills and li...
When you guys have food served to you in the breakroom, please take the leftovers and put them in the fridge. It's really depressing to see 6 hour old hamburgers and frenchfries go to waste. Sincerely, the hungry night crew
Listen. Your manager needs to get over himself. I came for the full time. I don't need to be talked down to, I don't need you to be a passive aggressive crybaby because of the fact you made a bad career choice and now hate everyday you have to be there. I don't need you to complain that I show up in the grace per...
this is just a little something I came up with to compare working with raising a child. When hired you spend the first two years trying to learn the company directions, issues and policies so that one can be a long term happy employee of the company. #! Then you hit the terrible twos`s where you become a te...

I know many of you have that stupid donut program in your stores: 1 dozen glazed mini donuts for $3.99. We've been doing a case a day which makes about 8 dozen. The only time we sell any is when we mark them down half price. The most any store in the division has sold in one week is three dozen. Last wee...
What is the Kroger policy on the music that is allowed to be played in our stores? We're playing Christmas music, but not allowed to tell customers "Merry Christmas." How are they allowed to play Christmas music such as "Silent Night" and "Feliz Navidad" throughou...

Hi everyone, I've worked at Kroger for about 6 years now. I'm 7 months pregnant and was just put on bed rest so I can't return to work until after the baby is born. I'm not sure what my next step needs to be as far as getting paid medical leave, and the person that deals in this stuff at my Kroger doesn't seem to...
Really!!!! My floral manager is over the top. She has a daily list and most days has extras but do I really need to dust the table and sign bottoms daily?
About five or six years ago I saved a ferral cat in my store. It was in the store for about two weeks, I was working on the night crew stocking and the first time I saw the cat it was running around in the Deli. Nobody could catch it, and one night it ran past me and jumped under an isle end cap, so I made my move a...
I was told recently about something that goes on in negotiation meetings and I thought this was very interesting.
