Hi. I worked for Kroger before about 3 years ago and made 12.35 an hour. I just got rehired at a different store and the hiring is done a.. little different now. I'm wondering if this is normal. Basically they are paying me minimum wage for the first few weeks to "verify my experience." Normal...

Another girl who has been there a couple months longer than I have put in for the same week two days ago. the vacation is in two weeks at this point. my manager said there's no way we can both have the time off. Shouldn't I get the time off since I've had it in for months o...

Ok, today I did a "ballsy" move. I had the audacity to politely tell a checker that I had my own work to do. Today I was assigned to clean the entire store, which is quite a job. I even had to clean store shelves on the sales floor. I normally just do routine clean ups and help keep depts clean but to...

I completed it last week but have not yet recieved my paperwork. Should I be worried? Or does it just take a couple of weeks to send? I talked to management at my store and th...

Hey, I work night stock at this f****ed up company and am really getting pissed. About every 2-6 weeks, my manager talks to us and says he's going to write us up or fire us if we don't start making case count, which is 55 cases/hr. How the hell are you supposed to do that? That's a case every...

I saw in ad in today's paper where Kroger was saying their prices were lower than Walmart's. The ad said, "Here's the proof." They showed four items: Four items out of the thousands of items that are available at a typical grocery store.

It's no wonder Kroger is so worried about Aldi and Costco (according to a meeting we attended last week) when we have nights like last night. From 6:00PM on, it seemed like the few check-out lanes our store had opened had five or more customers waiting in line at time. The lines got so long at some points t...

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...

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...
