Has anyone noticed this? HR representatives, at least at the Krogers I've worked at, are universally grumpy. Yet their job is dealing with people! My first experience with a Kroger HR rep was my orientation. My orientation was at a store other than the one I was hired at due to schedule conflicts. My h...

Get this... at the beginning of 2016 the min wage for WV is going to be $8.75. I will be making at that time $8.75 (starting in September). I wonder how much I will get shafted this time on my wages! When the min wage went up to $8 from $7.25 I was making 8.10 and only went up to $8.55. If I'm not making $9.50 or mo...

I saw at least half the front end employees roll their eyes at how slow I was. The FES kept harping on me about the line bei...

However as I'ce stated in my "First job" post I didn't have a schedule and was mainly set up by the manager just asking me if I wanted to come in tomo...
