The store is stupid
Permalink   


Ive been working at Kroger for quite a while now but the store I work at is horrible. I have had a MIC harass me saying you cant leave your register, you cant leave USCAN. My store manager stating to me that I cant wear a jacket but she never says anything to other employees. I have had my manager tell me I dont smile alot basically aging that they were going to fire me because I dont smile. I have had a coworker accuse me of harassment because he said something to me first and I responded. I never get my last break because they dont teach people about USCAN. My manager told me I had to come in to work and I had to miss my grandmothers funeral since it was Easter weekend.

If I have reshop I try to put it back myself because the workers at my store are so ****ing lazy. I hate asking baggers to do price checks it takes them forever. We dont have any real authority because everyone is too nice. The baggers do what they want. My manager and supervisor have such a big problem with everything I do its like damn youll be mad if the reshop didnt get put back or youll get mad if I took it back. Management gets irritated if I call ask a customers question then they lie a lot by saying no we dont have it without even checking. The cashiers have to bag their customers groceries and check out then the lines are backed up with 7+ people or more. We have people that work there who curse like sailors in front of customers its disgusting.

The store is stressing me out and Im not even a manager

 I sympathize greatly with this. Our baggers are lazy too, and I get yelled at by lifers for not giving perishables to them, yet when I give it to them they give me attitude (like who dafuq are you) and just toss it right back in the reshop cart at the front. I do Uscan, so my solution now is to just run back in between downtimes  and just put the perishables back myself. Only takes like 30 seconds. So now, if they ask me, "did you put these perishables here?" I can confidently say, that was not me and if you don't believe me go check the damn cameras.

Price checks, I don't bother with those. I just do a Make It Right. And if it's something NOF and strange, I quickly ask my ACSM and they give me an educated guess at a price.

Our baggers are useless too. Pretty much just screw around on their phones

 I would have gone to your grandmother's funeral it regardless of how busy it is. Then I'd see if the union could back you up. (Provided you joined the union.)

The only downside is that, management may "get even" by screwing up your schedule,  reducing hours, or adding more "responsibilities" on you, but making it 'legal' in the union contract. It's a loophole they can and will use given the opportunity.

I never worked in Kroger, but I can recognize what you are talking about. Might be it is the same store. Now they try to support demonstration against ownership of guns instead of reorganize and get better job done. They think that customers are idiots. From now on I try to reduce shopping there as much as possible. And to shop elsewhere on my way home. Unfortunately this Kroger store is my nearest grocery store. But I do my best from now on NOT TO SHOP THERE !!!
