They want us to start tracking the sales of those 12 count boxed donuts in the bakery. We're suppose to write down how many we make, how many we sell at full price, how many we sell at markdown price, and how many we throw away. Why are they making us go to all that trouble? Can't they use the scan data to fi...

We havent had a loss prevention person for almpst a full 2 years after our local PD stopped doing it and now all of a sudden they get this bright idea to hire ONE yes ONE LP guy to cover 3 stores in an 80 mile radius. They also implemented this other "bright idea" to stream all cameras in those 3 sto...

As most of the regs on there know, I am currently on suspension. And most of you know the story. So I got to thinking - what if I went to my arbitration meeting and to them that I have anger issues and I need help. Help from my employer. Sort of like how drug addicts and alcoholics come out and say they have a pr...

I've been working for Kroger for two and half years as a courtesy clerk. Currently I would like to pursue a different line of work, however when I asked my supervisor about this she said that basically potential employers just go through Kroger corporate and that she would not personally vouch for me....

Hi. I'm a Courtesy Clerk, but I'm also a Front End Supervisor, I run the office, and I run U-Scan, as well as bagging and running the registers. Every day I'm scheduled, I end up doing all of these jobs, jumping from task to task without hesitation, hoping I'm not asked to go shoot holes before I get all the...

Hi everyone, As of late my store has been very short on baggers, and when we do have them our supervisors have them do go backs and carts so cashiers basically bag each order and lines get longer. Because apparently it either it's taking a while to hire baggers or management just doesn't want to, cas...

Okay so here's the deal. I've been with Kroger for over a year, and I was told I have 20.5 hours of vacation total. For the past two months I have been requesting the vacation for the upcoming week, but have been told that there are problems with the system. I literally asked off 7 times because I'm going ou...

We have a Kroger's employee graduating High School today. He requested the day but they fit him into the schedule regardless. He told them he wasn't going to miss his graduation and would NOT be in. They put him down to work anyway. Now he told me he was simply not going to show. He was going to his ceremony...

Ok so today after work my brother tells me someone called today offering me a job interview. I looked into the company, decided the job wasn't for me (i'm really not qualified enough for it) and politely turned the guy down when I called him back. You guys are probably already thinking I'm crazy but the t...

... can I use my vacation time during my suspension?

Anonymous

I have recently started working as a clerk for my local Kroger. I have noticed that the pallets we receive from the distribution center in Atlanta are incredibly off balance. I am finding that people are loading these 1500+ pound pallets with fragile and light weight things on the BOTTOM and then VERY...

I am planning on dying my hair but my friends brought it to my attention that I could get fired if it is a crazy color. I already bought burgundy. Am I going to get suspended/fired if I come into work like that?

My friend was suspended today for accsessing personal files. They were his own, and he didn't touch anyone else's. he wanted to look up past write ups, discussions etc. well management came in and suspended him right there. EVEN if the files were his he should NOT have gotten them. The managers will le...

Been on Suspension for 5 weeks now, filed unemployment benefits but received a letter back saying I was suspended for misconduct. Haven't heard anything from the Union, since I first spoke to my union steward. It all boils down to that I told a customer, who was treating me like I was garbag...

So today I finally went to one of the marketplace stores for the first time. I'm impressed. There is so much more stuff there than in the regular stores, it makes the store I work at look sad now :P But I'm also glad they aren't turning my store into one, I can't imagine them expecting us to have that much stu...
