Quick question: where does the music come from in Kroger stores? Is it like Walmart where they have radio DJs, does someone play it from a Spotify playlist? Simply, where does it come from/who controls it? Thanks

My online schedule says that Im off on Saturday, which leaves me with a total of 40 hours. But the schedule posted on the wall has me working on Saturday, which gives me a total of 48 hours. So which one is considered the correct schedule? FWIW, I have no desire to work on Saturday.

Figured we could have a topic for comments, questions, funny or crappy experiences on self checkout. Today was my first official shift (8 hours, whew!) on U-Scan, or Self-Checkout (Express!). Prior to today, I had roughly two hours or so of training (about 2-3 months ago) before my official promoti...

I found a new way to cut down on out of stocks. I work picklist and sometimes I'll get an order that's entirely sub-free. No subs whatsoever. Well, to bypass that and keep our oos low what I do is this: 1. A customer wants 24oz Prego Meat flavored spaghetti sauce. For $4.99 we are out but we have the 48oz one...

Hi. I'm interested in working in a grocery store and hope some of you can offer information about grocery store employment. Kroger will be opening a new store near my home soon and I plan on applying. In your opinion, which department is best/worst? Why? I hope to get into the management training p...

The store I work at has a Starbucks with a café. And we do get their occasional homeless person for awhile. Most of them aren't a problem. Until now. This one guy decided to make one of the tables his domain. It's at the back corner so no problem, right? Wrong! Although he sits far away from everyone else...

I've been hearing "Summer Nights" from Grease lately at work. It's not John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John. The guy's voice just sounds generic. The girl's voice has a high pitched girlly sound with maybe a diva quality to it. Anyone know who it is?

I think a big reason why retail theft is so out of control is because the businesses's front line of defense---their workers and even the loss prevention staff---are burnt tf out, bitter and hateful of their employers, who don't pay em SH!T, keep demanding open availability for all shifts, and cutti...

For those of you who work in the bakery, have you been getting in a lot of LaBrea bread that you didn't order? Here's why. Every store is different. Some breads are going to sell better at some stores than at others. So every store isn't going to be ordering at the same rate. Well, apparently the supp...

Trying see if any current employees wages jump or just lip service? Kroger is spending $770 million more this year on wages and benefits for workers.
