I have been trying to look at recs for other stores at home. Great people keeps telling me I'm blocked and need to speak with my admin. So when I went to speak to her she told me I needed to do it on my personal time. That's right, does anyone else have this problem with great people? I need to get out of my stor...

Some days are worst than others, but it seems like nearly everyday there are multiple things that piss me off and just put me in a terrible mood and make me look mad, upset, and frustrated. I've been called out on this by coworkers and customers before, but I've just gotten to the point where I don't care....

Kroger is really pushing these for some reason. It must be somebody's pet project. I don't know about other stores, but they simply don't sell all that well here. Despite that, they sent us probably 20 or more flats of strawberries. The other day I scanned out 16 packages of 4-count chocolate dipp...

We have been counseled on getting our scan time & items % up.... It is very frustrating when most of our produce is not marked or the code is wet and cant be scanned . I am at my wits end trying to improve my %

I work in the front end, and today I was scheduled to be off at 4:00pm, but no one let me out until 4:10pm. (Managers have to send someone to come in for you or tell you to turn your light off, etc.) If the clock strikes the time you're "supposed" to leave, is it technically job abandonment if you just leave?...

I was trying to punch in the code for a red onion today "4669 ENTER", but since a customer was trying to punch in their Kroger Plus card at the same time, the register glitched, and only got "69 ENTER". I didn't realize it until it had already went through, but it rang up as "EW DON'T SCAN ME". I showed it to...

They got some panel sitting in corporate (people who have never worked in a grocery store probably) coming up with bogus ideas on how to streamline ****, when all it does it take more time and cost more money for training. I'm paid to put **** on the shelf, not to write stuff on clipboards, fill out paper...

I got a new part-time job and I'll be working part-time at Kroger as well. I'd quit completely, but I really need the extra money. I'll be working my new job more because it's the job that I've been trying to get for months. I'm hoping to be completely done with Kroger by May.

I put my vacation time in like everyone else by writing it down on the paper that's handed out. I actually knew what I wanted and I gave it to my CC head. They put it in the book for the person to enter it into the system. I check the paper schedule for the next week when one of my personal days was getting close...

With the buy outs of some of the higher ups, I have to wonder. What is going to occur in 2017? I can't help but feel that this will be a rough year for us at the stores, with something big going down.

I just purchased the buffalo chicken dip found with all the other crapload in the deli. It was marked down so a good deal. I use to get them a couple years back when made in house. They had tomatoes & green onions on top. It also used the rotisserie chicken breast meat. This one is now made off site...

We just switched over to this new cao program and was told that ordering will be much simpler as long as back stock is run and scanned every night and lows and holes are done every morning. The only thing we would have to focus on is ad items and special requests. Anybody here have any experience with the n...

I would like to start an honest and frank discussion about the challenges we face (especially in the front end!) in dealing with minority customers. In our store they are the source of the majority of our go back or they get to the register and find they don't have enough money and half the cart ends up goi...
