You know I bust my tail to make the grand reopening go well. Then they do this ****** e-schedule ,and I get screwed over I've worked for Kroger's for over 4 yrs now. I feel cheated by the system. I have an open schedule. Now I have to make room for a second job. My load is heavy enough with trying to pay rent,and all the other bills. My partner had a heart attack before thanksgiving ,and now the load is heavy.Sorry but,e-schedule just plain sucks!!!!!!
A coworker of mine had a fit yesterday because of it. The eschedule has been giving her odd times and with seniority she shouldn't be getting these hours. When a part time person who's below me too keeps getting morning shifts for no reason. For a second there i actually thought you could be her when you mentioned grand reopening, but the amount of time you've been there doesn't fit.
I have people that have been their less time they have more hours than me. Trying to get a second jobs. But the hours they give me it's going to be hard to schedule around it. Believe me our head is more concerned with linning his pockets with bonuses than giving hours to needy workers. It's sad now i worry how i'm going to make my bills. I can't even afford to have a phone.
Meh, I find it more bemusing and unnecessary than worthy of hatred. So far.
In the context of a bumbling chimera of a department with multiple contracts and pay groups, the system definitely makes some bizarre "choices," but we've been able to jerry rig enough solutions to keep everything running smoothly and somewhat happily.
True, there has been a steady flow of dire warnings (the only things missing are the hunched backs and tattered cloaks) that in some ill-defined but not-to-distant future, store level revisions will be curtailed or eliminated, but then again, I've been told that similar promises were made about the Front End scheduling for years with no follow through.
Guess we'll see what happens. If the Council Fathers decide shoddy stores are an acceptable price to pay for centralized control, so be it. Wave of the future and all that jazz.
