Fuel Clerk First Day
Permalink   


I start as a Fuel Clerk sometime next week. I never had a job before and was wondering if someone is going to show how everything works on my first day. I've already had orientation and computer training but that didn't help much.Should I show up really early? From other jobs like bagger it seems no one is there to train you, is fuel clerk ddifferent

You should have three days of training out there for each shift (morning, mid,and closing).  Thankfully they don't just throw you out there and expect you to know everything.

" Thankfully they don't just throw you out there and expect you to know everything."

Are you sure about that?
This is Kroger, after all.
Maybe it is different on how Front End gets treated, like a stray dog.
Soon after I was hired I asked to re-watch the video on bagging and was told I should learn by experience.
I had to learn where everything was in the store on my own, because our training conferences went long.
Nobody even told me the different departments, or where damaged went for each, or things like how grocery is one aisle and the next aisle over is nutrition.
Or how nutrition can have items mixed on some aisles with grocery.
Things like that.

Kroger is notorious for feeling that once you have watched a freaking video you should be able to Robocop your way into the downtown Detroit that is Kroger Company.
Only problem is, OCP controls everything and wants to always change things, improve them and otherwise doesn't care about the common person on the street.

/not my favorite movie, but I'll watch it if nothing else is on
//didn't bother with the 2014 reboot - saw no reason for it in the first place

To be fair, you don't need Trining to figure out where stuff goes. If anything, customer service should have a store Mao. You learn the store by doing go backs

Kroger is terrible about training. I work in the deli and was left alone not knowing what to do multiple times my first two days. I have been shown how to do two things and that's it so far. Help slicing and to make pinwheels.

wink They'll most likely give you 3 days of training. 


(I work as Fuel Clerk) 

 

But when I was being trained it was 3 days and 2 were mid shift and one was closing. Now all I do is work closings.
