The other day I had a customer scold me about one station being out of twist ties. We only get in so many and had zero in the back. Made an incredibly rude comment about it and was annoyed when I told him we didn't have any more in the back. Please don't be this person. Even though he was able bodied he refused t...

As Im pacing back and forth in the liquor dept, Im thinking of our store is so short staffed realities, but in the form of those yo mama jokes. Our store is so short staffed I gotta put post it notes on the liquor doors that say (bathroom break. Be back in 5 min).

Thanks to quadratics for giving us so many chances to say "Not Applicable", cause that's what this tihs is. How long do I plan to work here? Not saying. There is open and honest two-way communication at this company. Hell no. My workplace is a safe place to work. FU. My company conduct its business acti...

You're loosing staff left and right to being short staffed and enduring toxic environments. You can't keep staff long term because of the horrid pay. Your company is enacting fantasy environments from the office that do not work with the real world and if we don't comply you start writing us up. Your...

Our store manager decided to take on a position at the office district. The company sort of screwed her over with a temporary position but didn't tell her that. Shame it's rare to get a 1st manager that everyone likes, feels comfortable talking with at a personal level to a degree and willing to work wit...

I've worked for Kroger for many years and enrolled from benefits many times. However, last year I went through enrollment thinking everything was okay and that I had benefits. While at the hospital with my wife at the end of February they came to me and told me they needed another form of payment. When I...

This has always been a bit confusing: If you decide to swap shifts with another coworker. You show up for their shift but they fail to show up to yours. Who is responsible? According to my time the shifts would be completely swapped. The shift originally assigned would now be swapped with another cow...

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 offer...

I never been treated worse in my entire life. The employees treated us poorly. I got my revenge. I became a janitoral shoplifter. 14k in 6 months . That's for my pain and suffering. Then I quit. I was the highest paid janitor in the nation.

I recently quit my job as cashier in the middle of a busy shift. A bad thing to do, I know, but I was fed up. I spoke to the person supervising that evening, the "Assistant Co-ordinator of Customer Service" or some such, the only red vest person there. I told him I was quitting, was sorry, but...

Hello fellow Kroger employees! I have a question about our company policies regarding time off requests. Does anyone know the procedure for requesting time off, especially during busy periods? I want to make sure I follow the correct steps and ensure smooth operations at our store. Any insights or...

Due to the esced roll out my april 2024 schedule is all mucked up and will most definitely have to utilize a couple call outs this month. I wonder with my time replacing the old system will they do away with the kronos clocking system?

I am going to retire in June 2024. I have been a full time bagger since August 1980. I will miss my coworker. I will be moving to a retirement community in Florida.

Hello, it has come to my attention lately that some stores (such as large home improvement stores) have been more and more lenient lately on allowing their customers to come in and shop with their dogs on leashes. And, just within the last month or two, I have seen several customers come into the Kroge...

15 months ago I was freed of a department I was stuck in for 12 years. Free at last. After working from a new perspective I am realizing how many of my x-coworkers are douche bags. I've lost much respect for many of my coworkers. I'm realizing how many of them could care less about their coworkers and just t...
