I don't know how high management is, or where they buy their dank but in what world does it make sense to ignore a leaking freezer because it cost too much to have a facility support member come out. They told me that they would rather payout a slip and fall suit than have someone repair it. So fast foward a w...

I have reviewed several union contracts on the east coast, and if you are unfortunate enough to work in a non right to work state, you know your union is relatively weak and is a money grab for the most part. BUUUTTTT did you know that you do not need union approval to strike when you have had enough??? yo...

Can a customer 1st manager send an employee from a department home for not doing checkstand? Has anyone been sent home for that?

Has anyone else been asked to hide outdated product or wait to scan-out items, or fudge reason codes to cover a manager? It seems to be our store policy.. :/ I thought system manipulation was grounds for immediate termination?!

Before this manager had come to our store, I had been thinking about moving up in my department. I have gotten some training, but at the time we didn't have enough people in our dept, so I had to learn the basics over the course of two months. Now this new manager comes in and takes a liking to me (I always try...

I work in a kroger fuel center. A few weeks ago when I closed I apparently didn't leave enough money in the till for the next day, basically from what I understand I dropped too much money. I don't know how this works exactly, but ever since then I feel like I have been under intense behind the scenes scruti...

I know of a friend that has been putting in tons of information on some very unethical behavior and all he ever recieves is a canned response from them or they don't bother following up with them. Is there a former member of management who could shed light on this? I told him we should consider contacting...

Started cashiering a couple weeks ago and I want to figure out what the best procedures are. If something rings as $10 and it is supposed to be $5 is it best to store coupon off the $5 or use Make It Right? How do you do rain checks or Make It Right by the pound? A manager was just telling me that a barcode t...

What's going on with schedules...? So, I noticed they added Saturday the new week's schedule... I've read others mentioning about it, but does anyone know why? And aside from that, what's with this new .50 hours thing? Usually, I work 6 hours with a 15 minute break somewhere in the middle... I'm loo...

have y'all heard this? "come see what we have to offer" on hiring day (might be tomorrow, idk) ....minimum wage is what we have to offer. If you didn't have PTSD before, you will now! These folks served their country and they're going to offer them minimum wage? That goes hand in hand wit...

I'm sure we aren't the only store to get their crap stacked/wrapped like this so that it barely fits out the door. I just think it would be ironic if every store received the same "pushing the height limits" shipment with their taste of Italy crap

I heard they're building a new Country Oven plant and they're going to be baking all our cookies once they get up and running. They're going to come in already packaged. They say it's because they can't get anyone who wants to work in the bakery department in many stores. I say it's another way of cutt...

My local Kroger store has recently changed their hiring process to a 100% online only system. I spoke with the store manager today (who knows me) and asked him what I could do to speed the process along. He told me there's a "comment section" somewhere on the application site where I can writ...

it's cool that I can go look at my schedule but it'd be better if they'd post the whole dept. schedule so I'd know who I'll be bumping in the week and what days I'll get paid for that weren't scheduled correctly. It's not like it's private information, they post it for everyone to see at the store, so why no...

Hello. I Work in Drug/GM department. I was wondering if anyone can tell me why some items are ordered in? I am talking about items that have BOH above their MIN, with little to no movement history, and no specials going on. Say like BOH was 9, and MIN was 6, and ALLOC was 6, with 1 item sold in 7 days and 3 sol...

I've been working as a courtesy clerk/ utility for about two months now at my local Kroger's. I know I was one of the many new hires during that time, due to a major competitor in our area shutting down. As such, I got hired in specifically so I could start doing utility asap and bump some of the older utilit...

Thought it would be fun to have a thread that is dedicated solely to the awful crap you receive from the warehouse. Maybe we can vote on the worst stack job on the forum! Let's see what you've got!
