I get there at 8:00 this morning and the place was packed-- with Kroger executives. After they all left, it was just a typical day. A typical Senior Day has more customers than we did today.

I called in today because i'm throwing up. I work in the meat dept. It's law that I don't go in today. I have worked there for 8 months and this was my third call off. I don't think that's bad. But the bitch manager said "*Sigh* How's your attendance? You're gonna get written up..." I said "...

Clock it for 15 minutes sometimes it takes longer. Then at 8 am I clock the sweep and most days I get to sweep. It is around 12 or the 2 PM swe...

I know for a fact that this isn't allowed, but my store manager hired his wife to take over as the HR Manager after ours gotten into an accident. He feels that he can get away with this among other things because he's the boss. Should I report this to my district manager? Or someone in higher ranks?
