What exactly is procedure if I as a UC am on carts, and find an animal / child in distress in a vehicle. My belief is the following -report it to Service Desk to make an announcement for the customer to come up immediately -report to a member of management / LP immediately for their action and follow instru...

I am a seafood lead and under the local 540 union. Long story short, my coordinator has told me he's transferring me to a store further away and if I don't go I will be demoted. Currently I am a 10 minute drive from home and don't even have to take the highway. I do not have a valid driver's license, and my car i...

The new contract we were not allowed to read before being voted on, which apparently passed, adds a spousal coverage surcharge along with the insurance increase. So not only is your insurance going to double, tack on 250$ a month if you want your spouse covered. starts 1/1/19

Do your stores short staff on the weekends? My store stocks up mid week and has a skeleton crew in the check stands on sat Sun the highest grossing days. coworkers become bitter with eachother and to make it worse the Fes is allowed weekends and holidays off.

It can be anything, favoritism, worthless employees, lousy manager(s)/department heads, etc. Is it the same everywhere or is there at least 1 store that actually respects their employees?

I've been a visitor to this place for a while, but lately I've noticed two kinds of posts are suddenly appearing that are completely out of place here. 1. Threads by "employees" pretending to fart while at work to disgust people. 2. Threads by "customers" that are angry at us for some reason. I don't t...

Reign checks are supposed to be written for the exact count and price written on the reign check right? I had a customer price scam us. She wanted five items at 3 for ten but she wanted five at that price. I do my part. When she double checks her receipt she comes into another cashier and complains that t...

I fart all day long, and it really pisses the boss off! Sometimes, I fart right before somebody is scheduled to come in our office, and then I will leave which makes our guest think that it was my boss who farted. My farts are quite stinky, and linger for a long time.

One of our co-managers had her store keys taken away from her by our main co-manager. She is not allowed to open the store anymore. From what I understand it was a pattern of complaints from employees (with the most recent complaint coming from a customer.) She is apparently no longer on the store floor...

I found what turned out to be a fake $10 bill thrown into the garbage in one of the bathrooms the other night-MOD just threw it out-shouldn't there have been a report made?

Kroger about about focusing on the needs of the EMPLOYEEES?!?

Mr Frontenac

So the other day I had this experience where this man walked up to me while I was at my SCO station and started off greeting me assertively by shaking my hand and calling me by my name. Then going on to compliment how much of a great worker I am. And I think he even told me his name. Like as if I was in a business me...

Was curious if only the managers, back ups, and department heads get more a full week off for each of their vacations they have earned? If say, they have been with the company for X amount of years and have up to 4 weeks of vacay they can take. And everyone else, gets just the one standard week, but any subse...
