If you people can't bother to show up for your shifts: Quit!
(Preview)
It's mind boggling how you people who never learned to hold onto employment get through life. Those who never developed any financial skills and the money goes out faster than it comes in. Those that just job ghost without warning and screw your coworkers over on the schedule by job abandonment. How t...

Lets be nicer on the official Kroger brand forums guys.

Ive seen some racists and mean comments lately and thats really uncool. A lot of these people we are talking about are struggling or other wise worse for wear... AND they are customers. Lets have some self reflection and think about why we are saying what we are saying. If these comments are just "jokes...

Coworker going back to calling out again.
(Preview)
We know fellow coworker(s) that you call out the day before a vacation starts and the day you are to get back. They double schedule that week fully knowing that. So stop bi''ching about how there's two people on the schedule. It's not because they're replacing you, it's because they know you will call o...

Never once... have I called off. Not once. Managers have... Floor Supervisors and other associates have... But not I. Until today. JUST got back from the dentist. Long story short, what was initially going to be a simple tooth extraction turned into a full blown oral surgery and now the pain is ju...

Stop looking at the screen as if you think we are trying to rip you off. We're not (but we are always on alert if YOU are!)2, Stop telling the cashiers to take x amount off your order. Just taking a picture of the tag doesn't do it. I just can't take whatever off just because you say so.3. If you are an Instacar...

Good Juneteenth to everyone.

This day commemorates the day Federal authorities notified the last folks known to be slaves that they were no longer legally slaves. If you don't know what is being done to you being able to pass for white won't help. You know where I'm going here, right? Kroger and it's many store brands NEVER plays st...

I swear my iq dropped when we got our new team.

I swear my iq dropped when we got our current team. Both my new coworkers behave like they never mentally evolved past middle school. They behave as such and occasionally get disciplined for middle school behavior. They lack the drive or any motivation to put them selves beyond minimum wage work desp...

Coworkers are complaining now that store manager is making them perform to standards.
(Preview)
For years I noticed our department was not performing to standards and everyone figured out a routine that just sort of worked. No one was properly trained and they just fumbled and mumbled through the job. We finally got a new store manager that is making people follow the policies, procedures and ru...

Decided to talk to my manager about my coworker tinkering with my schedule.
(Preview)
My coworker is a clerk just like us but she's been mucking with our team's schedule to better suit the day so her a$$ does not have to do any more work than she has to. She has no say in being able to modify the schedule and after months of this bs I've had enough. At first I didn't mind now she's just taking adva...

Customers asking for personal mark down bags will probably come to an end.
(Preview)
At first I didn't mind one or two customers but now it's spread to several and I think I'll ask management to end this. I have more important things to do rather than assist cheap a$$ customers who refuse to pay full price for things. You get it in the mark down area or it doesn't happen.

Store managers that are not fired but moved to a different division so they don't have contact with associates

Happened in our store last week in the Local 1996 area. Store manager was only in our store two years then last week got bounced out. Kroger presented it as a "promotion" but I did a little digging on store manager disciplinary action and many times if there is a possibility of a wrongful termination law...

Lead's throwing a tantrum after failing to fill the red bag mark down area.

I'm glad our company placed a daily limit because we should have been doing red bags since our lead came on a couple years ago. He's refused to do more than one a day if even that. Our lead is throwing a tantrum about doing this one extra duty he deems as "useless". There's a lot of bs our department isn't doi...

I knew what I was getting into when I transferred in but did not realize how bad the department really was. The latch key child of the store where they just shove various employees to where they will need a role but don't know where to put these people.

Dear customers: Stop asking us to be your personal shopper. That's not why we are there.
(Preview)
I don't like to rip on disabled's because I'm one too. However, we have a few wheel chair bound individuals that never learned to be humble and are nasty on top of that. Each time they come in they expect us to hold their hand and be their personal shopper for their entire trip. On top of that they're social...

Do you have a coworker in your store that is perpetually cheerful? We have one in our store and it is SO annoying. C/I
(Preview)
She has to greet every single customer that walks in and out-even when she was OFF THE CLOCK, she was still greeting customers when she was leaving. It is SO annoying and obnoxious.
