I worked in my store for three years, I really like the people (for who they are), etc. However, the working conditions, the workload (our DM always over-ordered because he never checked backstock and if there isn't a full case of a product on the shelf, he will order it anyway), the management team, mo...

School is starting back next week :) no more male troll's in men's restroom pissing all over the floor. No more female trolls climbing under the stall door because they cannot get out. I am sorry if I offend anyone here about their kids. I love kids I just think parents should go with a child under 10 to the...

Anyone gotten some of the new rounds/stew/cubed that came out? How is the quality/look and is it selling? I'm in upscale store, so we don't carry it.

Have you ever had crazy shoplifter/stealing customers? We always had this one man find other peoples receipts and always try to return an item on it (he would just take from the shelf). Some of the idiots would allow the return but most of the smarter ones would deny but management would never do anythi...

besides being a bagger, those of us on the docks have it bad. It's brutally hot in the summertime (no breeze) and frigid in the winter. The heater in the ceiling works ok but as soon as someone opens the back door, any heat is gone and you're back to freezing. Why can't they give us reasonable heat and a/...

flies in the store? We like to open the bay doors to let a breeze come in and some other employees are complaining that this allows flies to come in the store. 1. what about the front doors that are opening ALL THE TIME? and 2. flies that come in on customers who haven't bathed in days!?

What should I expect to do? Also, how does taking carts to cars work? Who bags the groceries while I'm gone?

I'm just wondering if there are any stores still pushing the "Make it right" policy. At my store when they first introduced it, they were heavily pushing it on us. They would require us to carry a pack of stickers in case we encountered a situation where we had to make it right, they would dis...

It was busy, we were both stressed, you know the drill. The check was a "disablity[sic] check" for just under $1000 which looked like it was from the UFCW (had the correct address and everything), and had the Kroger logo. My coworker said that the scammer's ID matched the name on the check...

there are better opportunities out there!? I used to be happy at my job but recently had a change of heart and realized that since I'm not rewarded for going above and beyond for that place, I've asked around (and even been asked) about other opportunities with different companies. Turns out there a...

I've been working at Kroger for 2 years as a courtesy clerk & school starts in about 3 weeks. I'm going out of state to attend college, but I still want to be able to come back home for my job. A few of my co-workers go to college & said they were told the rule is they must come back once a month. My quest...

Me? Well experienced (20+) years in retail. Looking for a job locally, have narrowed down companies to apply with. Kroger is appealing for many premium personal reasons. I understand that the company in whole does not hire in Full Time for front end/cashiering. I'm reading that part-time stat...

they give you a comment box but it only allows like 10 characters. Yeah, that's totally enough space to let them know that "bitch, I won't be here x day because I got **** to do. And don't try to deny it because I'll just call in, what's the worst you can do? write me up, whoop de doo"

Dept:Meat So I had to go in for emergency dental work on my day off this past week and took the following day off. I gave them almost 24 hours notice. Only took one day off, so I didn't get a doctor's note as our contract says we only need one for multiple days. So I got my work done at the dentist.. got pain meds...

So, last night I got to train the closer on how to do mark downs. I'm a cake decorator. She's been closing for over a month but no one has bothered to train her. Before the manager left he asked me if I could help her out. "Sure" I said. Then found out the Asst #2 was suppose to train her but didn't wa...
