Finally, I am out of the hell hole that is Kroger. I was a courtesy clerk and it was the most miserable job I've ever had. When I was 16, I worked at McDonald's and they treated me better. I am so happy to be out of that place and ready to start my new job. Kroger was, hands down, the worst job I ever had. If I worked an 8 hr shift, I had carts for 5-6 hrs. How fair is that?
I'm guessing you aren't a bagger? Go out and get carts in -35 degree weather for 5 hrs and then talk to me.
I send out tag teams for short runs when it's cold or there's a heavy downpour though it hasn't been that cold here, not much below freezing. That's crazy hours in crazy temps...
I'm ready to quit because, at this point, getting carts sounds like a dream compared to running a hopelessly dysfunctional front end. I'm not the schedule writer so I'm screwed every week and I'm tired of it.

Unless you work at a store that only "has enough hours for 2 baggers" per day. It sucks :(

I am close to quitting as well. All this company does is reward lazy people if they have years with Kroger. Not all of the employees with years of working there but a very large majority. They always cut hours from newer employees and expect twice as much work done. All best of all a pathetic hourly pay.
It is actually funny that instead of rewarding a fast and constant worker the rest of the co workers fear for their job. I will go as far as to say I carried my department. After I was moved around to other departments to help, my old department fell behind and lost sales due to no products being stocked.
