Kroger use to always offer alternatives to uniform requirement's: Now they don't.
Permalink   


God I was happy when this uniform bs ended. It's expensive, their employees are too poor to buy uniforms and they often wear them to shreds before replacing them. 

Our manager is enforcing the shoes for crews shoes and it's super frustrating not being offered an alternative. Company has always offered an alternative for those that can't afford it, don't have the means to buy it (because they have no debit/credit card) or have health issues due to the clothing (ie allergic; don't sell their size). No not this time.

If you don't buy it from shoes for crews and can prove you bought it from shoes for crews it doesn't count.

I think she has this wrong because they've always offered an alternative with the requirement of them being slip resistant (work shoes). I feel like I'm singled out because she keeps haras--sing me to prove I bought my shoes from shoes for crews. I've been wearing my same shoes for the past 4 years and they've always been "approved". They are sold by shoes for crews but I bought them locally. Apparently they do not count. God this company sucks! If she refuses my dr note I am filing a union grievance.

Good luck with the grievance. Bad companies sometimes mean bad unions. Their buddies want to sell more shoes and they want to f**k with you.

 Shoes for crews is a joke. You can buy the same shoe at Walmart cheaper. I used to get slip resistant steel toe boots from Walmart. I have purchased a couple of times from shoes for crews but the shoes at Walmart last londer.

There's something going with this shoes for crews nonsense. It hasn't been mentioned for years. Now all of a sudden it's being pushed. Why? There's more to it than they're letting on.

 First wash your ass, you smell like sh-it And second, the union cant do anything. This is the required uniform to work here. If you dont like it then you will be written up. further disobedience will result in suspension and termination, PERIOD! So just shut up and wear the shoes.

I've been wearing steel-toed work boots before shoes-for-crews were around. Nobody has ever said anything to me at all. When the shoes-for-crews first came out I took a look at a pair that a coworker was wearing and decided to stick with my boots. I could tell that the shoes-for-crews wouldn't last at all. Brahmas, Interceptors, and Herman Survivors LAST.
