(Long story short). I was given a verbal warning about my absenteeism, then was written up. (I had a doctor's appointment, but whatever). That was 7 months ago. How long are write ups kept in your file? I've been feeling like death, but am scared to call out.

Ive been working for years at the service booth, only get 10.25 an hour, what the heck. Have to deal with the worst customers and the most money and responsibility in the store, why is this position barely above min wage? More people would be willing to deal with these situations if the pay was decent. Im...

Working as a cashier now. Tired from just standing in one place all day and greeting customers with the same BS. I have one of the best Tender Times in the store, but my customer service is lacking. Typical Interation Me: Hello sir/ma'am, how are you doing? Customer: Hi. i'm fine, thank you. *rings up ev...

I am having trouble getting to view what I put on my availability when I first was hired in September. One of the managers at my store said I could find it on greatpeople.me. Can someone help me to do that? Thanks

This is the first week of the holiday sales here. Mega event with great sales almost everywhere. I run frozen and the...

So, there have been rumors for years about a competitor (Price Cutter) buying out our 4 stores in Springfield. It was finally announced that they did, thus the last day of operations is on January 3rd 2015. Anyone else ever have gone through something like this? It was weird because our store manageme...

I have worked for the Kroger Company for about 3 years. I'm planning on moving down south and the only store that is worth the drive in a Harris Teether. I know Kroger just bought this company so I don't know much about it. I live up north now. Would transferring be too much of a pain in the ass? I plan to come b...

I've been a Kroger employee for almost 2 years. I recently moved out and need a second job. I got a call from the Meijer in town while I'm waiting for my Kroger transfer to go though. One of my coworkers said I'm not allowed to work for Meijer? I knew I couldn't work for Wal-Mart but I wasn't sure if the policy...

I've gone in the store and talked to the customer service dude, whom gave me the number to the hiring manager. So I call her afterwards and she says "Oh sorry I can't look into your application or a...

Yesterday while I was on break I was sitting at one of the starbucks tables... like I always have since I was hired three years ago. And then the new manager they hired comes storming over and starts yelling at me about how I'm not allowed to sit there and how it's for customers only. "What if a custom...

I work grocery night shift, as some of you may already know from earlier posts. Can they write me up for leaving right when the schedule says at 8:30, instead of staying overtime to finish stocking/conditioning? Can I do this during the holidays when we get f**ked with a huge load?

When you are off work and shopping do you care? Do you watch the lanes, refuse to enter one if there are two people in line? I got yelled at the other night by the comanager saying I messed up her Q Vison. Well let's see, 6 lanes open, each lane had 2 to 4 people in line so I picked the shortest lane and got in l...

Hey our contract meeting is scheduled for the 3rd, but all I've heard is negotiations are going slowly. Anyone hear anything? Healthcare is the big hang up from what I've heard.

Yesterday I'm stocking lunchmeat and there's a pack of dairy cheese slices in the pepperoni, I grab it thinking oh no this will be bad, nope it's frozen solid. I think hmmmm I bet whoever is working frozen put that there as it's right next to the freezer doors. I tell some coworkers and everyone say...

He was on vacation for 3 weeks in a row and during that time, the assistant head of bakery asked me to change my hours of availability because they need more people.

I swear, there's an assistant customer service manager at work who hates me. She ALWAYS yells at me for wearing a sweater. She only singles me out, never anybody else. She'll tell me "You're not allowed to wear that inside." with such a bitchy attitude. But yet, there's cashiers and other b...

Is there a way to view the Kroger handbook online? I was never given one at orientation because they were out and I've never even thought to ask for one. I mean, who really reads the handbook anyway?
