How much is too much? Coworker requests shift swap every week. Generally I don't mind if the individual is reliable as I've been on the short end of the stick a few times. I don't mind to a degree. I have a few coworkers that want to change shifts almost every week. If they are reliable and I am not doing anyt...

Our store recently had a cleaning of employees with shaky work histories. Several of with I've worked along side with 8+ years. These people did their job duties very well and they eventually got them on some sort of technicality. Just because you're in the union does not mean you're 100% safe. It just...

The old system you use to be able to view them from the server and now you can't. I'm not always on a computer I wish to download my pay stubs to (ie the company computers, public computers at libraries or even on a tablet) that doesn't allow downloads. How the hell do you view paycheck stubs without downlo...

Hi Everyone, Anyone here work for Kroger back in the 1991 - 1993 timeframe? If so, do you remember listening to P.O.P. Radio/In-Store Broadcasting Network? What did you think of it? Also, do you know of any tapes that exist that your store played in P.O.P Radio's special cassette player? Regards, Kro...

Due to my time mucking up the schedule again I'm going to have to call out a couple times in April for appointments that are non-reschedulable and a few events I can not miss as well. I really, really, really don't give a f* with this company any more. Oh, if you people are not willing to work with my schedul...

The other day I had a customer scold me about one station being out of twist ties. We only get in so many and had zero in the back. Made an incredibly rude comment about it and was annoyed when I told him we didn't have any more in the back. Please don't be this person. Even though he was able bodied he refused t...

You're loosing staff left and right to being short staffed and enduring toxic environments. You can't keep staff long term because of the horrid pay. Your company is enacting fantasy environments from the office that do not work with the real world and if we don't comply you start writing us up. Your...

Our store manager decided to take on a position at the office district. The company sort of screwed her over with a temporary position but didn't tell her that.

I've worked for Kroger for many years and enrolled from benefits many times. However, last year I went through enrollment thinking everything was okay and that I had benefits. While at the hospital with my wife at the end of February they came to me and told me they needed another form of payment. When I...

This has always been a bit confusing: If you decide to swap shifts with another coworker. You show up for their shift but they fail to show up to yours. Who is responsible?

God I was happy when this uniform bs ended. It's expensive, their employees are too poor to buy uniforms and they often wear them to shreds before replacing them. Our manager is enforcing the shoes for crews shoes and it's super frustrating not being offered an alternative. Company has always offer...

I never been treated worse in my entire life. The employees treated us poorly. I got my revenge. I became a janitoral shoplifter. 14k in 6 months . That's for my pain and suffering. Then I quit. I was the highest paid janitor in the nation.
