There seems to be a wide difference from area to area about becoming full time. at my store i work with a guy who has been at kroger 30 years,but he quit for several years and returned maybe 15 years ago. He is still a Part timer,working on average fourty five to fifty hours every week. I have been there a yea...

Okay so just yesterday i was told that my manager, who already does not like me, gave away my hours this week to another bagger who has seniority. today i went and talked to my store manager. she said that even though that technically was not allowed on my manager's part, it was however allowed when the un...
during this time i was working the service desk, a customer comes up to me and say that she would like to get refunded for this gift card, and i explain to her that we can not do it because it has no vaule on it and doing so will result in a cash lost, but i asked her what the problem was, she said the cashier for go...
So as i was going into work last night i checked the schedule to see what i was working next week. 3 days.......12 hours in total for next week. We had to move one of our guys to drug gm just because there wasn't enough hours in grocery, and he only got 12 hours in drug gm. I don't know if it is just our store or if...

Management at my store takes the cake. After our deli department has lost four employees in as many weeks, and not replacing any of their shifts, they wanna tell us how to display sandwiches and salads. Were now not allowed to put our sandwiches or salads out with the pricetag facing the customer. I...
Why do we have to hear this song so much? After you go I can catch uo on my reading After you go I'll have a lot more time to sleeping And when you're gone Looks like things are gonna be a lot easier Life will be a breeze you know I really should be glad But I'm bluer than blue Sadder than sad You're the only light...
What all do you guys know about how they are calculated. Ive heard that the cubic feet of a shelf is a part of it. There is something seriously wrong with my store. My guess is the size. We have a small store with some of the best sales in the district. It's just hard to believe thats all there is to it. I know th...
Now that our vacations are over in grocery i got a total of 16 hours this week, and they had to move someone out of grocery just so he could obtain some hours. No wonder people opt for unemployment now days. I could make more money sitting at home doing nothing than i could working at this place. For the size...
Well today in the deli at my store, we only had four people plus the chicken person scheduled in the deli (the day before Memorial Day) and we were busy as hell! Of course as is the norm anymore at my store one of the two closers called in and the shift wasn't replaced. The only attempt to replace was to ca...
Hey guys I know we all work with a "WTF how did you get promoted" boss but have any of you ever worked for someone that was fired and if so, why?Just making conversation?
If Kroger as it claims, is making less than two cents on the dollar profit,How the hell can they give our CEO Dave Dillon a 1.4 million dollar raise? Something don't sound right to me.
A few weeks ago my store started where you punch the clock to do a store sweep. I was Ok with that. At my store we have 4 Utility Clerks. The Courtyesty Clerk does not do our work unless it's after 7 or no utility clerk for some reason. When we started this I was told to only do sweep and store. Today I was told we...
I have been a conditioner for the last nine months. They toss one person to condition in the mornings, the entire large store, which happens to be the district store. I can manage it to an extent if I almost kill myself, however it's not 100% perfection, but it's good enough for them to not fuss overly abo...
