I recently interviewed to become an apprentice meat cutter. I was told that ?the apprenticeship program would be sixteen weeks long. Do I become a journeyman after that, because it seems a little quick? How long does it take to become a journeyman?

Well you see, ever since corporate has come management has been really strict. For example, we are no longer allowed to make trains with the carts because it is "not safe." Sunday night I decided to help this one guy out and take his hour long cart shift right before my hour long cart shift. Wh...

Kroger stock just took a split and the stock keeps climbing up and up it appears and everything just seems so peachy and perfect according to the higher ups in the company, but don't let appearances deceive you. They don't even realize what is coming to this company and within the next 20 years it will g...

why is it that the raises for pharmacists are equal to or less than that of the techs? no wonder sw division has 40% pharmacy turnover. vacation policy and bonus structure suck, too. Kroger may want to think about using some of the billion dollars it is sinking into the dallas district to keep the em...

Trying to fill around 2,000 positions at 185 stores. I wonder why they would have 2,000 positions open at 185 stores in the first place? Certainly couldn't be the low pay, lack of acknowledgement from management or the manipulation of the hours keeping part-timers part-time. Nor could it be the mass...

I know that Kroger hasn't ever been good about hiring competent people, but it's gotten way worse here recently. Here are some of the geniuses that my store has hired in the past month: - Cashier who is leaving in less than a month and can only work 12-16 hours a week for "medical reasons" - 3...

Is it mandatory that I take the Pharmacy Tech Exam and obtain my certification in Kentucky? It seems like I read somewhere online that I had one year to obtain my certification, and if I don't pass, I will be demoted to another job in the store? Is this true?

Has anyone heard of cheez-ums? They are the same type of crackers like Cheez-it, and they used to be stocked on the shelves next to them. A customer asked me if we carried them a while back, and I told them yes that I remembered them but they must have been discontinued. I was just thinking about them to...

I'm a cashier. I do a good job, but lately there has been a cut in hours for me and several other part-timers after a brief raise in hours (I was getting 30-35 weekly, and some were getting 38 to start). I'm wondering how to get full-time so I can be one of those guys that works from the ghostly hour of 6am to 2p...
