I work in the deli and I got the most frustrating customer today. I asked her if I could help her and she said "I want the private selection." We have turkey, ham, cheese, chicken, and roast beef in private selection. Obviously saying "I want private selection" isn't narrowing...

My store offers a wide variety of organic produce, and there are hundreds of organic items scattered throughout the store. As a result, we attract large numbers of health/fitness nuts, Whole Foods shoppers and health conscious stay-at-home-moms...in other words, 95% of our customer base is WHIT...

I am rarely late for work, but today I missed work by an hour. Last night I couldn't sleep due to my anxiety/headaches and it was around 3am and I didn't want to be sleepy for work, and knew I needed sleep. So, I took some sleeping medicine, and accidentally slept through both of my alarms. I was supposed to...

Finally, I am out of the hell hole that is Kroger. I was a courtesy clerk and it was the most miserable job I've ever had. When I was 16, I worked at McDonald's and they treated me better. I am so happy to be out of that place and ready to start my new job. Kroger was, hands down, the worst job I ever had. If I worke...

Starting about a month back out of the blue, I was scheduled for no hours whatsoever. This was the first time I'd not gotten any hours, but in some previous weeks they only had me for one or two days. Talking with my supervisor, apparently the schedule was very different prior to a manager above him chang...

Recently i was just getting ready to start my shift and had another worker (grocery/dairy) there for about another hour. Guy doesnt do mark downs (another topic) all together so he points out products that need to be marked down. So i get a gun and start to do it to get them out of the way. The hour goes by an...

I get into work today and my co-workers and boss say I was "recognized" in our department and entered into a raffle for a $20 gift card? I work in Meat/Seafood if that matters.

This has happened to me twice now. An employee from another department gets demoted and they send them back to the front end to work as a cashier. They have more seniority than me so they still get their 40 hours but my hours get cut back. I was working 32 to 36 hours but now I work around 25 each week. I un...
