Filed a harassment complaint against a co worker for repeated unwanted touching. I don't want to get into specifics as this was quite recently and someone might recognise me, but I want to know what happens next. My store management took the written complaint but I haven't heard anything back. What i...

I just noticed that I gave a, 2 weeks in advance request, for a day off (for a doctors app.) over a month ago. I gave another one about 2 weeks ago (an MRI app.). Both times they cut my hours a week after that requested day off. I had to put in another request for the 21st of this month (app. with a surgeon). When...

Hey guys, Attached is my resignation letter from back in October. I'll tell you this: NEVER be afraid to bail on them, no 2 week notice, if they treat you like garbage. You have more leverage than you think. I left without a notice, without a warning. Guess what? The company hired me right back and I'm cur...

I haven't had a chance to talk to anybody about this yet. I was told today that part-timers who average 25 hours/week are eligible for insirance. This sounds the same as before, but they acted as if its new. Did they shorten the waiting period or something?

How come Kroger hires more people when they don't have the hours to give the employees they have? My hours went from 21 -16 hours a week and I heard they're thinking of hiring someone else in the my department. How can they do that? 24 hours -32 is considered part-time and I don't even get that.

Why is there a sense of urgency for the front end cashiers when scanning customers groceries? Why does Kroger expect and want this to happen?

The front end supervisorsupervisors including the assistant customer service manager pretend like their job is so hard. Especially when it comes to giving people breaks. they're constantly scheduling cart shifts when an employee is supposed to go on their break (minors must go at a certain time....

Hey guys, God among the freight throwers here (lol jk). Tell me why working for Kroger sucks, but why you're sticking around. I know I've got my reasons, but I genuinely want to hear yours. This forum gives me enjoyment because most of the posts are things that we can all relate to and seem to be company wi...

How does it work with the union when your store closes and you bump someone out of job from another store?

I have had customers asking me to sell the individual bottles and or cans of beer that you use to make your own 6 pack of beer, and when I tell them that I cannot do that, they complain. Either they tell me there are too many rules regarding that or they want to speak to a manager because they do not want to pay t...

Someone told me working here would help me get over my public speaking and social anxiety but i swear i think its made it worse. I was ok with greeting people but now that I know about secret shoppers its made it worse. Like I feel more paranoid so it actually makes me want to avoid people. It doesn't help e...

At our store there is an EXTREMELY difficult-to-understand ad (relating to the pharmacy) that airs randomly over the intercom system............I can't be sure if it is a "local' ad just for our store, or district, or it is part of the feed from the In-Store Audio Network to all Kroger stores. It is...

Why is it that no one ever stands up for others? On rare occasion people who are being treated badly at work will stand up for themselves and tell a coworker to stop. However, when you see someone else being repeatedly abused for no good reason why do people decide not to get involved? You have an opportu...

There is a bully in my store and she happens to be the LEAD. She behaves in typical jealous and petty ways and also gossips about me constantly. I got fed up and filed a complaint but it went nowhere. Odds are stacked against me because i have only worked for the store a year and the store director likes her i...

Guys, it's been a long time since I've posted here. Being back at Kroger as, once again, a freight boss, I figured I'd stop by again and chat with you all. I went back. I needed employment, I needed good money, and I took a job as a freight crew lead. I know what you're all thinking, and I am honestly surprise...

I work at Fred Meyer (my first job). Who do I give my two weeks notice to?? My department manager? HR? Also, do I just need to tell him I'll be gone after a certain date or do I need to write a letter? Thanks

I was pushed into hanging tags almost 4 years ago, and have been trying to get off since. I work grocery overnight and hang tags twice a week. When I managed to gain the balls to demand an answer as to why im not off tags yet, the grocery manager said it was because Im not doing a good job of hanging tags, so wh...
