Has this site ever worked for anybody? Everytime I go to website to see pension estimate, it says not available at this time, please call. No problem calling, but you can only call once every 365 days for estimate. Would be nice if website worked.

Lead is being a dick about his schedule change.
(Preview)
Our department has had preferential scheduling treatment for 2 years or so. Everyone is getting pissy because of this change. This is how it's supposed to be rotating random shuffling schedules with no set schedule. I've always had this schedule and thought it was bias discrimination to have prefe...

New store manager is asking personal questions

Our new store manager is conducting interviews asking employees about their families and what they do on their off time. He's even asking so-called psychological questions such as what your favorite color is. I feel these questions are none of his business unless it is directly related to workin...

Does Kroger EVER call the police and if so what for?
(Preview)
I can count on one had the number of times cops were called to my former store (mostly for high amount shoplifting) and I only saw one customer put in the back of a police car.

Why do blacks come up to your register and ask "Are You Open" when my light is on and I am standing there?

My standard answer: "Are You Open?" "Well my light is on."

Blocked miss micromanager's number because she's calling too much
(Preview)
I usually don't mind being a team player but our miss micromanager has taken it a step further and calls us at inappropriate times. She isn't the brightest when it comes to common sense or courtesy and acts like she's in charge when she's not. I'm getting more and more uncomfortable working with her. I b...

I don’t mind uniforms but they need to offer religious accommodations and alternatives.

New uniform policy might see an ethics if they dont accept a reasonable accommodation for allergies to synthetics and polyesters coupled with a religious accommodation as well. Will present my reasonable accommodation to management but if they reject it the company gets this on them. Hr rep who is...

Coworkers who disrespect their colleagues when they call out: You are aff holes.
(Preview)
How come when your coworkers call out thry dont give a shit abt it. Yet when you your self call out their dicks abt it. Not only is this disrespectful it doesnt help support your team members when they are not well. I dont abuse the call out privilege unlike my coworkers.

Tired of druggies being kicked out every now and then. When your life has sunk this low - rethink your life.
(Preview)
Every few days we'll have to kick out drug addicts because they go into our restroom and lock them selves in. After a few hours we have to kick them out because after an hour you're pretty much loitering. Every few days this gets old. This is also not on the list of job duties I signed up for.

Saw a memo on my FES desk that said cashiers will have to stand in *front* of their check station, direct customers to the nearest register available and greet every customer that approaches them. The BS is starting to get off the wall-totally ridiculous. Is this going on in your Local area? Did you get...

Just read about another ASM lawsuit that was filed in February alleging dubious promotions to exempt to avoid paying OT
(Preview)
This sounds exactly like what happened with Office Depot in the early 2000's-they got sued out the wazoo and ended up settling with a lot of their former Assistant Managers. Does Kroger think they can get away with this?
