Am I the only one that thinks about this? Sometimes the back of our store is so nasty, with garbage and assorted debris and trash that has lain on the ground for weeks, if not months. Every manager of every Kroger store should (at least once a week or more) either assign someone, or go themselves (!!!) and pick up trash and "tidy up" the back alley part of the store. Anyone in the general public, if they are observant, can drive behind most any Kroger store and get a rough idea of the real "character" of the company. Just my opinion!
At our store, Dillon's at South Seneca and 31st street in Wichita, KS, they have an employee that daily picks up the trash in the parking lot and walks completely around the block picking up any and all trash. The regular lady has been doing this now for 20 yrs at this location.
who has hours to do that!? Our store has a lot of junk piled in the back (old racks, broken hand jacks, etc). DSD or grocery probably should take care of it, but we honestly don't have the hours to spare. We're already short handed and have more work to do than ever! I have to do my own job (receiving) and run bread, sort the grocery truck (there's nobody coming in to do that anymore, so many times it's up to me). Difficult to come in and check in vendors, unload a truck, and try to do a bread order in 2 hours. Certainly don't have time to beautify the back lot. I'd love to, that's my bag! This place is on a downward spiral

(Original poster here) I do feel your pain, and completely agree, we need MORE hours allotted for tasks like this! But, this is just a reflection of the UPPER UPPER management ......... "Kroger Corporate". If they were truly concerned about "minor' issues like this, they could allot more hours for all stores.
WOW I am usually the one who cleans around the compactor washes it down with a hosepipe. I cleaned it really good last week. This week I am on vacation. I had to go to the store for something I drove behind the store it's easier because so much traffic in front. I saw a huge box and other trash on the ground. It really angers me I had it clean and then other people don't care. I bet next week I will have to be the one to get it up. My manager drives around behind the store because he parks on the side when he is in his truck. Maybe he will notice it and have someone else get it before I get back.
