Hey all. Just curious if anyone knows anything about the music I've been hearing lately over the loudspeakers in Kroger. What's the deal with all the TV theme songs (Green Acres is the place to be...) and songs about chicken (Chicken Dance, Chicken Soup With Rice, Funky Chicken). I hear that the same p...

Been thru one of these days yesterday. Seems that they have one of these at least once a year or sometimes twice. Day where the store director sets down all day to make himself/herself available any and all day for employees to come in and talk about any concerns, complaints gripes or issues dealing wit...

or something of the like? i'm kind of confused as to how i accrue vacation time (been there 2 years) and i've asked a few of the managers around the store and gotten different answers, so i was hoping it would be in print somewhere.
Hi, I was wondering if anyone else out there has the same thing happening at their store. Here, they're hiring a lot of new people in the front end (cashiers, but mostly lots of baggers). They do this and then spread all the hours out so everyone, including those with lots of seniority, are getting no hou...
been 10 days should of took 3 according to upstairs told then yesterday they quickly shrugged me away still no discount. has anyone had the same problem with getting your employee discount.
Do not know if this is new to all areas or just in District 7 of the SWKMA. But it does seem that when something breaks down on the weekend that it stays that way until Monday at the earliest. As I was told , by our Co, that unless it is a case going down or serious refrigeration problem that things not called in...

Is this more of the key retailing program that they invested too much money in? Why is it so important to grind their employee into the ground? a...
i work for a kroger store that has a store director who can be nice one second and just in one split second change to a crazy demon. I do many things in this store and can be scheduled in one day three different departments in one day. I am frankly sick of being over used and over worked. I have to be a back up boo...
those traing lessons are slow and mundane i completly felt like shooting myself in the head especially after a mindraping flash video that was made with early 90s tech. they where so simple and mundane. according to the training video most people they hire dont know how to use a boxcutter or have any co...

At my store in Michigan, when the grinder log stuff started, we were told not to grind ANYTHING for customers any more... no steak.. no roasts, especially not pork..EVER. We have one meatcutter that wants to do whatever peop...
