So a customer had a few rain checks and when I was finished the rain checks I put them aside to check out the rest of her items. She asked for the rain checks back but I told her I'm suppose to keep them to put in my till (or under, whatever). She says then she wants to void off all the rain check items so she can ju...

I have been with Kroger for three weeks. I applied and was hired with the understanding that I have a primary full time job and this would be a secondary part time job. Administrative Manager said they totally understood and that they should be able to work with my schedule. First week, I received 10 hou...

So now, in our division, the markdowns have to be put in the little corner "manager specials" section. Annoying. For one they are losing money and 2 on those crazy days where you are lucky to have just gotten it done...then have to tromp it over to the other end of the store....argh.

Let me get this out of the way first: I love Kroger. I think the prices are pretty damn good, the products (with the exception of Simple Truth, and some of the service deli in my specific store) are good, and almost all of my coworkers are awesome, fantastic people I'm glad to have met. But some of the ones w...

So I have been with Front End as a courtesy clerk (effing HATE the term "bagger") for seven months. Yesterday (Saturday) I went in 30 minutes late because I was thinking I had to be there at 3:45 rather than the 3:15 I was scheduled. I got there and went to the customer service desk. Our Front En...

We got new name tags. They have our names in big bold letters. Our old ones had, "Serving you since..." on them. These new ones don't because they dont want the new people to be intimidated when they see how long how other people have worked there. I say bull$hit. I've worked there over 2...

If they put a '5', then we get 100% If they put a '4', then we get 0% or so it seems. And every company is like that, no matter the rating scale. Even if they 'never give out perfect scores', 4's still mess everything up. Shouldn't the customers know?

So I used the time sheet today to clock in, but I mistakenly used the electronic machine when I was trying to clock out instead of the time sheet. What should I do?

I can't f***** stand it when stupid c*nt customers don't know how to shop.
