I recently have been put back in the deli at my store after a stint as the dairy back-up. This hasn't been a problem since I get along really well with most of the people there. Since I came back one girl who started a couple of months before I went to the dairy, tries to tell me how to do my job likes shes a bos...
It's an absolute shame how this whole mess went down. Governor Snyder has stabbed the working people of the State of Michigan in the back. Anybody planning on joining the rally at the Capitol Building on Tuesday from 8-3? If so I'll see you there! And if you hear people in your stores talking about quitt...
Operative Faith reveals that Kroger will soon join the ranks of Darden Restaurants and slash the hours of its non-exempt (hourly) workers to avoid millions in Obamacare penalties. To give you a sense of Krogers size and importance, its sales last year were $90 billion and it employs nearly 350,000 p...
I was told that I had to contact HR to request a transfer from Indiana to Denver, but I can't find the number anywhere. Google has failed me. Who do I contact, and what do I say to them? (I've worked at Kroger for 6 months, gotten one raise.)
We bake a lot of bread. Usually I either bake or bag. For some reason, I seem to be the only one who will put bread out when it needs to go out. Everybody else just throws it on the channel cart and maybe it will get worked when it's all bagged. One woman even gets upset if the deli manager tells her to fill...
UFCW Local 700 Indianapolis Kroger Bargaining UpdateOn Tuesday, December 11, UFCW Local 700 resumed bargaining with Kroger for the Indianapolis Kroger agreement. During our last negotiations session, Kroger gave us a proposal to which we responded today, agreeing to very little as it was lit...
Ok, the majority of the cashiers at my store are good people to work with. But there are some that think that they're the sh** and they'll want you bagging the way that THEY want you to bag. I'm a bagger and I never teach you guys on how to be a cashier. Don't give me this "I've been working here 35 years...
I guess I really need to know what takes place at the meeting with HR and my union rep regarding my termination. Is this meeting to tell me why I have been terminated? The union rep says this is the meeting is where the union decides whether my case is worth going to arbitration. What? Okay so what exactl...
I don't know if this is just my store or not, but our front end always seems to be shortstaffed every day, and they're constantly calling for help from other departments. (i am a dairy mgr.) It aggravates me and it should not be happening. They have their own people assigned to that department, so they sh...
Ok so I want to work at Kroger while keeping my day job at another supermarket retailer but have been told that you cannot work at a competitor company. How would that be enforced ? Once I am off the clock, what is it their business to dictate to me where I can work and where I cannot ?
I'm a kroger employee, I'm a grocery clerk I stock half of all the shelves in the store and work in the back. So I deal with a lot of people and what not. Been at this kroger for about a 1yr and two months. I just got sick at 2am Saturday morning, nothing too terrible but with nasal allergies, getting dizzy, an...
My boyfriend is a full time employee 10+ years and I was wondering, even tho we aren't married can he still cover me with his insurance. I can't get help from the state cause we live together and he makes to much but I'm recently in between jobs and need emergency dental work. He makes way over enough in hou...
It is going to be a lot of fun the rest of this year. Start a regrand opening next week and half the help that is coming from other stores will not be there. Have no market assistant and only one that wants the job but was sent from the store because of theft and shrink problems. Got rid of one person and cannot...
yeah, silly question, but serious, there is a difference between not liking the place, and hating it. when did you start to hate it ? how bad do you hate it now ? i actually LIKED kroger the first 5 years or so. next five, went steady down hill, but it diddn;t get to hate untill my last 3 years. three years is a...
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.
Seriously, I know this isn't an impo...

They say they cannot afford for him to take vacation. He is NOT in the Union and is afraid of retaliation if he speaks out! I wa...
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...
