i love these "What's the best Dept" posts that surface every other week.

if you've been a bagger for the last 7 years and havent transferred yet, you're probably stuck.  Take what you can get, just get out of bagging.

If you have worked for kroger for 7 years and can't name the different departments, please don't leave your current position. Also please don't vote or reproduce.

What I don't understand is why Deli/Bakery is always lumped together At least in my store, we have our own Bakery manager, and a Deli manager as well as an assistant Deli manager, but no assistant Bakery manager. Are all the stores like this or are some under the Deli manager?

 It all depends on how big the deli and bakery are and whether they're in the same part of the store.  Of course if you're like our deli manager you can just get everybody else in the department to do the work for you.

Under Front End you have Front End and File Maintenance

Under Grocery there is Grocery, Wine, Dairy and

Under Drug/GM is Drug GM and Recieving

Then there is Deli/Bakery

Then there is Produce which is composed of Produce, Nutrition and Floral

Produce is the best! It might be one of the harder departments because it's physically demanding, but it's not a bad job at all. I would say grocery is the easiest department to work in.

Grocery doesn't have half as many heavy boxes and crates than produce. You guys don't have to rotate stock, nor do you have any hard work.
