New person working in nutrition. When you are doing markdowns, how many days beforehand would you markdown the organic milk, cheese, yogurt? For instance since today is the 9th of April and the milk goes out of date on the 20th of May...when do you start marking down. Help!!!

The only thing I can find in the Union book states that I can occasionally work day shifts, while maintain my night pay (not talking night premium). They have me coming in at 4am, which isn't as bad as when I was coming in at 11pm-12am, but I'd still like to not have to work 5 days at that hour. I've heard I can...

Is it worth it to transfer divisions? I am moving down south and am contemplating transferring instead of quitting. I only make 8.70 an hour for working there for years. I work customer service. I would be working at Harris Teeter because they don't have Krogers down there. Would it be worth the troubl...

Cashiers, how do the more competitive of y'all maintain that really good ring tender score? Share your tips/secrets >:) Here's what I've collected from here and other cashiers: 1) Let the customer fill up about half of the belt, ask for their Kroger Card, then scan. Don't force them to give it to yo...

I was gone the day they were supposed to "train" me and I don't really get it. I got a letter in the mail saying that I can refund stuff if it is under $20, but I don't really know how any of this works. Can anyone give me a brief rundown? Recently, I gave someone a discount because they had a make...

Well my Easter Sunday was fun. I was scheduled to do chicken from 9:30-6. The opener from 7-2:30 and the second in from 8-2:30. Now for the closers, a new hire for his first day from 1:30-9, and last guy from 2:30-10. The new hire was a no-call, no show. And the last guy called in. When the manager on d...

Look, it's nice that you'll be feeding us on Easter. I appreciate it, really I do. But is there a need to put up a bunch of flyers that say "If you're spending the day with your Kroger family on Easter, there will be food upstairs." No I'm not spending the day with my "kroger family."...

As we go on and start getting older, of all the changes and priority shifts that accompany aging, there's one thing that's getting more and more important and undeniable to me: T I M E. As in, for all the things ranging from great to terrible in our long term jobs, time is the one resource we can never truly...

For me i think dairy and frozen. Dairy is stressful because you have to keep the cooler organized, and stock yogurt and tiny items. Frozen has to keep up the freezer, and its really demanding unloading frozen pallets. Grocery has enough people to pick up any slack. Plus you dont have to work as fast. Del...

Okay so I was a checker who got moved to customer service. I got trained but for some reason it seems they forgot to teach me everything.

I had my yearly evaluation today and I know in the grand scheme of things they don't mean a damn thing, but the one I got today has pissed me off.

I've misplaced my W2 and now I'd like to get an electronic W2. I've come across this website: https://www.w2express.com/ but as far as login information I don't know. I work for J983 in Westfield Indiana. Any helpful information would be great.

i know all of this is in the new hire packet, and it was all covered in orientation, but what is the policy for calling off? Can you get in trouble? I don't want to walk to work in a thunderstorm, and quite fortunately I don't feel like being at work later. How many times can you call off in a certain period bef...

Hey guys. I don't have any vacation time yet, but is it ever possible to just randomly take a week off without pay? Sometimes I don't get any hours anyway. My dad really wanted to go on a vacation this summer, but I feel like I'd have to quit my job to go. :(
