AFAIK here in the Local 1996 area *every* store (ALDI/Publix/Whole Foods) is CLOSED tomorrow. It would not hurt Kroger's profits one bit and in fact it would create a lot of good will with employees

Leads/managers in departments are expected to have a higher level of professionalism. We've gotten sick of his haras--sment and started filing paper trails to document it all. If management won't do anything we'll file a lawsuit after a while. We're not waiting 2 yrs for them to fire our leads slimy...

A full sheet caked used to cost around $43.00. They're now $70.00. You can't tell me that the cost of those eggs in the cake went up $27.00. There are several other bakery items that are suddenly much higher.

If so what was the outcome? This would be suing the manager personally, and not the company as a whole.

I am so sick of a regular junkie doing instacart stinking up the women's restroom 5 times a week with his damn m.j. He has horrid bo when he swings through and obviously does instacart to get his $ for his next fix. And people wonder why I don't support instacart. Not all are like this but a good percentage...

We are lucky if we have 3 check lanes open. Most shifts I have worked so far have only two. Is this a deliberate action by Kroger or just good old-fashioned short staffing?

Gotta love corporate when you have issues and need to contact them. Missed call... No caller id to be able to call back. Tried calling number given only to get that wonderful blocked message phone call because it was an internal phone number on a high end line they only wanted internal calls to get to. Br...

Being a grocery day manager I have to close the store when ever the store manager or co-managers go on vacations or certain days they want off. My question is why dont we get extra pay when having to close the store? We are expected to do the managers closing of the store but also to get our own department ra...

We got a memo several weeks ago and the amounts have changed at least in the Local 1996 area regarding PSOC shortages. It used to be $20 to get a "conversation" upstairs now it is up to $50, and the only thing that has not changes is the $100 shortage that could get you terminated or suspended. Are the amoun...

I'm fed up with my current store. I'm tired of running from bad managers each time they come in and display their horridness on the store. I've been unhappy for 6-10 months and this is an ongoing issue. Union has been ignoring our plea for help and only recently gotten involved after filing an ethics rep...

why are most kroger female managers fat? is it a requirement?

I started applying for other jobs outside the kroger family. I am honestly sick of the discrimination our manager has displayed upon me in the past year. The union is utterly useless and wins just turn around to a half win later and some times right back to where the problem started. Nope, done being tre...

I use to always pick up extra hours unless it conflicted with a personal appointment. Our new manager is such a di--ck. He does not fairly distribute hours nor understands the schedule writing rules. He just goes straight to favorites first and if they say no then he goes to his secondary choices. I rec...
