Are you an Ass-kisser? Me neither.

If you are really interested in a career @ Kroger you had better pucker up.  Apparently working hard, never calling in, coming in on your days off, etc. isn't good enough.  On july 19 I would have worked @ Kroger for 3 years at J-928 in Bloomington, Indiana.  I graduated from Indiana University in August 2007.  Shortly before though I interviewed for a co-management position in Indianapolis.  The interviewer liked me and the interview seemed to go well.  I would call everyday to check on the status of interest and the woman didn't have the common courtesy to return my callls.  I get a letter in the November 2007 saying that they had just recieved my application for employment (are you fu@#ing kidding me?!).  It said that I need to be a department head first.  I foolishly went along with it and waited for something to come along.  Well a Kitchen Place was about to be built and I was asked to run it.  Again I foolishly accepted.  I was told by one co-manager that I was going to be just a lead clerk which is a far cry from department head.  Then I was told by a tech manager that I was going to be back up department head to the GM/ Non Foods Manager.  I was supposed get trained in certain areas (how to write a schedule, how to set up a promo aisle, etc.) but it never happened.  I got paid no more money to run kitchen place.  When I came to the realization that the management thing wasn't going to happen i decided to go back to school and work Kroger only part time.  Here is some advice.  If you want to get promoted to a management posltion at Kroger proceed with caution.  There is so much red tape involved that it may not be worth your time.  I learned this the hard way apparently.

Good Luck
