Does your Kroger require you to comply with the city/state laws regarding food handlers permits? I know for a fact that most of the employees at my Kroger work without one. Heck, we don't even have a sign in the restroom reminding employees who are too lazy or stupid to wash their hands. I've seen employees not wash their hands and go out and serve the customers! Ewww!
Just wondering. I really hate Kroger so much that I might call the city health department and report them. That way Kroger will have to get 100's of employees in this area alone to comply and what will they do until they all get their cards? LOL! I mean I do feel sorry for the one person who has a card and gets holding the bag but think about it. $24 per employee for the course and test.
In our city, you can't even serve drinks without a permit. So all those days they hand out free coffee samples, food samples, etc. will come to a halt until everyone gets a card! Oh, and management or whoever can't go behind the counter in the bakery and start packing up cupcakes etc. for customers after the bakery is closed can they?

Who pissed in your Cheerios? As far as management or anyone else packing up cupcakes etc. after the bakery closes goes, what are they suppose to do if a customer has an order to pick up at that time and there's nobody there to give it to the customer? You certainly don't want the customer walking behind the counter, do you? If it's a customer who simply wants something like a certain arrangement of cupcakes like half chocolate and half yellow instead of all one flavor, then any employee who knows what they're doing can go behind the counter and do what the customer wants as long as they have on some type of hair restraint (hairnet, cap) and they're wearing disposable gloves.

My last sentence was a question that ended with can they? So you are the one eating piss Cheerios, not me. My managers never wear gloves or a hairnet, neither do the employees who go back there after hours so there! I guess you did answer my question though, it's ok to be dumb and do whatever whether it's the law or not and it's ok. You will go far with Kroger, you should be a manager lol!

The City of XXX requires Food Handler Permits for all personnel handling/serving food and/or beverages in the City of XXX. The cost of a Food Handler Permit is $16.00 and must be paid before the permit can be received. (Before you start in on me, there is more information on the website that ups the fee to $24.00)
This is from my city website, can you explain to me where it says it's ok if you wear gloves and a hairnet? Where it say all personnel handling/serving food it doesn't state that managers or employees who know what they are doing are exempt. Enjoy your Cheerios!
How do you know the store doesn't have a permit? That might fall into the same category as things like zoning laws, etc. It might already be all under control.
The OP sounds like a very vindictive, bitter person. I agree, I think someone pissed in their Cheerios. It does make me wonder why the OP is so insistant that every employee take a certification course that costs $24.00 per employee, and how do they know how much it costs? Perhaps they're getting some sort of percentage kickback from it. The OP obviously has no idea how certification works. The store is certified, not each individual employee. Requiring each employee to be certified would be like requiring every employee to have a liquor license to sell alcohol.

I know how much it cost per person because I've had a permit for two previous jobs, and it's stated on their website. The idea that I get a kickback is just so outrageous and stupid on your part. I'm really not the one INSISTING everyone get a permit, it's the CITY that insists they do. You obviously have no idea how certification works. I've lived in this city for 45 years so I'm pretty sure I know more about this than you think you do. You are not speaking from any knowledge of this, you are just making stuff up acting like you know everything. About every law. In every city or state. Trust me, you aren't that smart.
And NO, you can't just get one permit for the store only. There is a class online and you have to read, study, and take a test. How would just one permit cover every single employees' knowledge of safe food handling procedures? And why would the city on their own website have these courses for each individual employee to take? It's like saying oh, the manager took all the CBT's so the employees don't have to. Same thing. I'm not vindictive. Kroger just needs to play by the rules/law if they expect everyone else too.
Sigh. I guess some people don't care if employees have any sense of hygiene or proper food safety. This particular Kroger store I'm speaking of was almost shut down because the deli was so nasty. I know this because I had to be a witness to the write up of the deli MANAGER who should know better if she had a food handlers permit. Or maybe she just doesn't care. Guess I'm vindictive if I don't like my chicken out all day at the wrong temperature or know of all the violations and won't ever eat their deli food again. Oh, wait. Just a simple STORE permit would have fixed that, right? LOL! Permits in the office. But what does it say? I don't know. I've never read it. Nobody told me. These are the things you would hear if you asked any Kroger employee at this store.
I had to have a permit for one job, in this same city, when I was a Promotions Director doing local sales marketing. I wasn't responsible for the day to day store operations or making/serving food. BUT, on occasion I would have to take food samples that were already prepared and packaged and pack them up and take them out of the store to give away for local events. Had to have a permit according to law. I didn't get a kickback on that one either.
Next thing you know you know you will be saying all union contracts are the same. LOL!

From the city website: The City of XXX requires Food Handler Permits for all personnel handling/serving food and/or beverages in the City of XXX. It doesn't say all stores/businesses have to have one (I'm not sure of what permits/certifications stores have to have). It specifically states ALL PERSONNEL HANDLING/SERVING FOOD/BEVERAGES. I read that and to me it means each and every single person who handles/serves food needs a permit. I'm sorry, I just can see it any other way. It is what it is.
I've worked at Kroger and the 4 years I''ve been there they have NEVER ONCE mentioned ANYTHING about me getting a permit. Nor have the said anything to any other employee. I know this for a fact. (I had a permit when I first started at Kroger, but didn't need it for the job I was doing.)
And for those who can't quite read and comprehend simple basic written English, I'm not, nor is the city, requiring employees such as cashiers or baggers etc. get a permit to handle groceries lol!.
OP must've stubbed his toe or some **** like that.
Anyway, as far as my local jurisdiction is concerned, only the establishment needs a permit, not the individual. So when the local stores would set up a table to make [insert item here] at the front of the store during the summer, they only need a permit for that specific table.
What's this "city" you keep talking about? It's funny how you never mention the actual city so no one can check your facts. Or maybe you're afraid someone might find out who you are and beat the crap out of you for being such a douche bag.

Yea, make a smart remark because you know so much about it. I keep forgetting how every single time you post you think you are so much smarter than everyone here, you are the only one that knows anything. Well, as long as you think so (nobody else does.)
