Thought it would be fun to have a thread that is dedicated solely to the awful crap you receive from the warehouse. Maybe we can vote on the worst stack job on the forum! Let's see what you've got! I know you've got pictures on your cell phone, pictures you were going to send to headquarters! You proba...

I'm sure we aren't the only store to get their crap stacked/wrapped like this so that it barely fits out the door. I just think it would be ironic if every store received the same "pushing the height limits" shipment with their taste of Italy crap

Ours is awful. I wish I had a picture. Every slot is filled with not one, but at least two or three u-boats filled with overstock. The u-boats with the overstock go underneath the overhead shelving. The entire space under the shelves is filled up. So they had to start a second of u-boats, and then a...

Started cashiering a couple weeks ago and I want to figure out what the best procedures are. If something rings as $10 and it is supposed to be $5 is it best to store coupon off the $5 or use Make It Right? How do you do rain checks or Make It Right by the pound? A manager was just telling me that a barcode t...

it's cool that I can go look at my schedule but it'd be better if they'd post the whole dept. schedule so I'd know who I'll be bumping in the week and what days I'll get paid for that weren't scheduled correctly. It's not like it's private information, they post it for everyone to see at the store, so why no...

What's going on with schedules...? So, I noticed they added Saturday the new week's schedule... I've read others mentioning about it, but does anyone know why? And aside from that, what's with this new .50 hours thing? Usually, I work 6 hours with a 15 minute break somewhere in the middle... I'm loo...

I work in a kroger fuel center. A few weeks ago when I closed I apparently didn't leave enough money in the till for the next day, basically from what I understand I dropped too much money. I don't know how this works exactly, but ever since then I feel like I have been under intense behind the scenes scruti...

I'm a full time college student and have a really open availability for being in that position. I'm only unavailable two days of the week, and any other day I'm available from open to close.

I've been working as a courtesy clerk/ utility for about two months now at my local Kroger's. I know I was one of the many new hires during that time, due to a major competitor in our area shutting down. As such, I got hired in specifically so I could start doing utility asap and bump some of the older utilit...

I live in Ohio. On Saturdays they tell us we can wear football shirts. One of the women in our department wore a Michigan shirt and she ended up being forced to change because the shirt was deemed "offensive to customers." What kind of weakling do you have to be to get offended over a football s...

Hello. I Work in Drug/GM department. I was wondering if anyone can tell me why some items are ordered in? I am talking about items that have BOH above their MIN, with little to no movement history, and no specials going on. Say like BOH was 9, and MIN was 6, and ALLOC was 6, with 1 item sold in 7 days and 3 sol...

Before this manager had come to our store, I had been thinking about moving up in my department. I have gotten some training, but at the time we didn't have enough people in our dept, so I had to learn the basics over the course of two months. Now this new manager comes in and takes a liking to me (I always try...
