I was told that I accumulated overtime and it has confused me. I came in on Tuesday at 4pm-8pm and then came in Wednesday at 3:30am-12pm. I was told that since there wasn't a 8hr gap between shifts that I should get overtime. This was told to me by coworkers and my dept manager. They told me to watch for it on...

My top 2 1. " I have very high expectations so nowhere I go will I ever be highly satisfied." I didnt know it was this possible to be this snobby. What do you want us to do, hold your hand while you shop? 2. (Backstory: A wal-mart employee set fire to the local wal-mart store, so with nowhere else t...

Just got back from Kroger and the FEM walked out yesterday. So let's see.....in one month the deli girl walked out, the SRS walked out, I walked out, and I'm sure there are more to come. I guess the gossip is true, they are trying to run off the employees with seniority and whose skin color isn't the righ...

Can someone tell me the steps in ringing up customers at the deli register, and if it's the same at all registers? ty.

I am a part-time courtesy clerk/bagger. Last week was more decent than usual initially, 19 hours, but then I was asked to stay longer on Friday and Saturday leading up to the Superbowl. In the chaos, I wound up with 31 hours and my store's work week ends after Saturday. But...after doing 6 hours on Sunda...

Well, at least the people who make the "lot duty" schedule in the morning need to double-check things. I work from 3-9. Arrive at 3. The 'lot schedule has our main entrance working by Employee A. But Employee A is on PAL and can not bring in carts. I volunteer (stupidly) to do the job, which i...

This weekend we had a "major snowstorm" predicted to hit us. We were so busy our manager made everyone stay over a minimum of 1 hour. To make things better, she didnt tell half of the employees. I only found out because the FEM was telling the cashier I was bagging for. I ended up with a 9 hour shi...

I was scheduled from 2-10:30 tonight. We were so slow that the closing CSM let me leave a 1/2 hour early. I really had no complaints about it. I clocked out, grabbed my stuff, and left. I wasn't gonna stick around for another 1/2 hour when I was told that I could leave. There was really no point of even havin...

The same day we start "PAL" we start having a security guard too. I wonder what the hell brought the changes to our store. Was it corporate, or was it the meeting of store managers that we had at our store about two weeks ago? Something sure lit a fire. And the embers are still warm.

Why don't i have an option for this under express hr anymore? I wanted to see what my benefits were (I have an x under retirement plan on my w-2 also) and i don't have the Total Compensation link available anymore. All the others are there.

I've just been told that I'm next in line to become a floor supervisor. One of the other supervisors said that they were just thrown into the mix, and had to learn a lot of the stuff by themselves, due to our store being busy and there being little time to do actual training. So does anyone on here know how to...

At least two weeks now I've looked at the posted weekly schedule and it says I work over 25 hours(that's never happened in months) but looking at it shows it's more like 16. My supervisor's doing this by scheduling me in a single day from 12 AM to 4 PM. I doubt that this is just a typo now seeing as how this is t...

How is the healthcare changes going on your health insurance the union passed last year? How is the now spouse coverage going? What is it costing you for spouse coverage now plus yours? I must say mine is not going worth a crap.

A small snow storm came through my area overnight yesterday. Most of the roads in town were cleared by noon, but most of the employees that called in lived outside of town where the roads were impassable. But did customers care? No! Did management allow anyone to stay over to cover? No! I was only...

I have finally gotten another job lined up and about to put in my notice that i will be leaving. Since the schedules are written weekly I plan to give them a week before i leave. I know others have given two weeks but is that really necessary?

So next week's schedule was posted. I have a wonderful 12 hours. Yay. But at least four of our courtesy clerks have PAL labeled into the boxes of the days that they work. One of them works four days next week and is "PAL" each day. What the hell is my store up to this time? I don't have "PAL&q...

My store is cutting hours for everybody on the front end starting next week. Not sure of the other departments though. Me & two other daytime baggers (the rest are high schoolers) are going from 40 hours to 20 or less. We recently got two new daytime baggers, but they have only both worked two days th...

What the hell. I went shopping at Sprouts yesterday and needed a few items from Kroger that I didn't get a Sprouts. I parked, walked up to the store and saw the meat dept. guy standing in front of Kroger on his smoke break. So I stopped to talk with him. I talked for a few minutes then noticed something...
