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...

Can Kroger fire you if you were shopping in a different store you did not work at on your day off and another associate starts arguing with you and then they attack you and you defend yourself and couldn't prevent the situation?

Hi everyone, this is for the people employed at Kroger or another grocery store. Today an older gentleman was behind the cigarette case asking for cigarettes. Normally I would tell him to get in a line and have the cashier do it, but he was in a line and the cashier was making no moves to get him his ciga...

I had a good senoir discount day. I got off work early and was able to enjoy a nice afternoon. It made the rest of my work week go pretty easy and I hope that everyone else had as good a time as I did.

Why do people respond to posts that are well over a year old or more old?

Have any experiences with an extra rude/mean customer? How did you handle it?

... and that is you get to get away from your department for sometimes almost an hour and eat free food while still getting paid. That's all that's good about being on either one of those teams. The STAR Safety team is useless. I know every Kroger store must have one, but what good is one if safety hazards a...
