According to Fox News, A researcher from the Netherlands says he expects to grow the first-ever hamburger in a lab by this fall. The beef will made from bovine stem cells grown in...
Got a question i work at krogers in michigan and i accumulated 2 no call no shows in a 90 day period , then i was suspended for 3 days . then a week later i did another no call no show . is this grounds for termination?
If you suddenly aren't scheduled at all anymore? I've only been working for Kroger for a few months, and I only average about 12 hours a week. Last week I worked 20 hours due to Valentine's Day and this week someone was sick so I worked 14 hours (went in early one day) I called today, and I was told that I wasn...

Hello All, I'm promoting a website that provide corporate Logo Design services at cheaper prices. I need your feedback so that I can forward them to concern department to provide better services and improve its overall appearance. Thanks
I'm under the impression that this is just a way to make morning shift easier. Evening shift sorting pallets, having no help, and expecting to get their normal work done? All the while being called to the front? Something is going to break.
In my times i can remember many times that I was always given advice to remember. But not all stuck with me. #1 When i was new and learning the trade, I was told that if i stuck with kroger about a year then i would know enough to be able to go to other places and make real money. If not then I could stick around a...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WibmcsEGLKo I figured i'd post up this video simply for the meaning of it. This video can cover many issues, but remember you the people have the power to make things right. There are things you can do to empower your union to become stronger. The more we are united th...
Does anyone know where Kroger orders their cleaning supplies from? I would really like to have one of those stand-up dustpans that they use in the store, and no one at my store seems to be able to help me out.
We just had 2 cashiers moved at our store over low ELMS scores. Has anyone else had this happen at your store? Is it even legal to punish someone over a measurement that wasn't in place when they first started, or is it just considered as low job performance?

I was told in our contract it states that there is a 40 hours locked in for people hired before a certain year. I do not fall in this bracket. I'm concerned because the company doesn't want to up it a few years ahead. I was told they could virtually work me 28 hours a week even though i'm full time status. Do yo...
I got switched to another department earlier last year, I was at Kroger for 6 years, they would not schedule me for 2 months, the Union took their time for me of course, I finally got 32-37 hours for 3 months thanstarted working 2 jobs, they than took me off the schedule, I called the union and they never p...
I've always wondered this. I dont think it should be required, hell no job at Kroger should require a degree. Any trained monkey could do every job Kroger has to offer.
So basically, I used to be a lead nutrition clerk, right? I was averaging close to 18k a week in sales, working by myself. Finally, it got to the point where the extra .60 cents/hr wasn't worth it, so I stepped down. I switched with a fellow co worker, and all was well. Or so I thought. I noticed I was st...
is this happening at other stores or just mine? We get something almost everyday that the mexicans have helped themselves to. This is clearly shrink under the "warehouse damage" that they don't like us to use. One day they'd all eaten slim jims and left the empty wrappers all over the pa...
since I am constantly pissed off at something, so Im gonna keep the ball rolling What are pay rates for associates in your division/district? Here at central in IL: New Clerks start at 8.25 top out at 9.75 this includes Grocery GM and Cashiers. Baggers/UT's are stuck at 8.25 (min wage in IL) permanent...
Just curious, but do department heads recieve bonuses for meeting goals ie Key Retailing, Shrink, Sales etc. or just a little more pay and lots more headaches? Looking at trying to move up and I tell you it doesnt look like a lot of incentive here in Central div. Thanks for any replies =)
