And tell my manager that if she thinks she can run this department better than all of us - good, do it by yourself. If I had something lined up, I'd do it. The only problem is that yes there are a couple people I would miss. But they also want out of here. My manager has done nothing but make our lives hell. Noth...

I called in sick yesterday and the manager said I had to bring in a doctors note. I've called in exactly one time in the three years I've worked there. Another time I went home early because I was throwing up in the trash can at the register and a customer complained lol! I know in our employee handbook s...

I am a courtesy clerk and I was assigned sweeps from 6-8 am. The front end kept calling me for orders they can bag themselves. How can I log my sweeps if they keep bugging me?!? I am very much safety/task oriented, and I just want to get my sweeps logged properly. What I been doing lately is ignoring the call...

Greetings everyone! I was told that a background check is in process. I will be in Home Goods as planed at my interview discussion. But no one has returned my calls for information about the employment progression. I have gotten calls from other locations in the local area for interview. Any ideas as t...

So here's the basics: I'm on the overnight grocery crew. My dept manager was stepped down from the position two years ago before regaining the position a few months ago. She orders more than we can put up in an 8 hour shift. Her solution to that is to try and get everyone to stay longer. My problem is that m...

Earlier this week all of the paper towel and toilet paper dispensers in my store was replaced and today they replaced all the markdown printers with new wireless ones. Nothing was wrong with the paper dispensers and the old printers were in good shape. Last week the store finally fixed a drain probl...

Hi so I am starting my first day working at Kroger as a Courtesy Clerk in Front End. I am 16 in high school, and this is my first job so I am excited. Well could someone tell me like the do's and don'ts and what to expect, and also some bagging tips. I was told to build walls in your bags, but I know that most of the...

It started with the coke machine. They filled it with dented Big K sodas. Then they took the machine away. We used to have those good paper towels in the box, the brown folded ones. Now we have those huge rolls they use in the restrooms. They are so thin and cheap you have to use twice as many. The bott...

Our cashiers are working 12 - 20 hours this week. Our FEM said it would be the same next week too. Courtesy clerks are getting 25 - 35 hours this week for some reason. I better not have to bag one single item this week LOL! Maybe they are finally going to get rid of all those gobacks in the backroom. I wor...

So after being wrongfully terminated my union rep has issued me four weeks of back pay for time missed. He called my manager this morning and set it up, so I'm thinking it should go through on this coming weeks paycheck, so hopefully I'll get it Friday. I'd love to get it before Christmas. Anyone know how...

So, I was curious about the high volume stores with multiple department heads for each department and how they work. Take grocery for example, how do they divvy up grocery manager responsibilities? It seems like it'd be a debacle. Having multiple people ordering, seems like conflicting opinio...

Today I finally reached my limit with my bi-tc-h of a boss. This is the woman who claims "20 years" with Kroger. The same woman who earlier in the year told me "You could leave now and we'd be fine with it." This woman is a terrible Front End Manager. She sucks. Plain and simple. She s...

I've been noticing in my main local store that they're calling managers for "Fast Alerts". What the hell is that? Might be a Central Div or Zone 10 thing (if the zones are still the same as when I left). I suspect it's for queueing, but who knows.
