I'm so tired of customers getting pissed off about side departments being closed mid day due to lack of staff. I can not tell you how many people ask if it's open when the lights are off and closed sign up. Same with the front end. Our store is only staffing cashiers in the register during prime times. Res...

2 team members doing nothing but walking around the store to flirt with the male employees for 5 hours! They get paid for walk around and flirt with men. One of the 2 employees-mom works at the same store. Lovely huh? Yet department manager says to one associate that I need to be managed. Heard her mom al...

Title says it all: Digital coupon system is horrid. Every week it's either one item or another that's broken. It's hell when it's a popular item.

Grocery (Drugs & GM) department hands down is the best. Then produce is second.

Dear customers: Please stop cutting in line. You suck! I'm so tired of getting several a day that can't just take their one fu--cken item through sco. This is insulting to those that actually wait in line. I can not tell you how many seniors use their age to cut in line. You should be a shamed. This is disre...

I dislike how customers will ask employees as if we're health consultant. An customer has asked about 7 employees in each different area on the sales floor about the same product and it was almost 3 hour conversation. Employees told him to seek an pharmacist, but even they had difficulty understandi...

I'm posting this as a reminder for staff to do the annual employee survey. It can be accessed in esced. Scan the code with your smart device and do the survey. My store never informed us that there was a survey. Please do the survey before 8/18 before it expires.

What's the point in posting something and then saying you don't bother to check replies? You might as well just say what you want to say to an empty room. Besides, you might learn something.

Department manager retaliates passively by telling her employees to micromanage me because she was proved guilty.

I know that the gas prices haven't lowered by much, but at least they haven't kept climbing. I don't know about the rest of you, but I've had to watch the gauge reach a certain level and keep how much I spend at the same amount. And I couldn't quite get a full tank. Then one day, I do the same routine. Stop at th...

I went to do my shopping when I got off work and noticed some of the aisles have an extra shelf on top of what used to be the top shelf. There's a strip on the shelf saying to ask for help if you need something from there. Has anyone else seen this, and why did they do this?

I can not tell you how many customers get so offended when they see employees continue to wear masks. In most states it's optional to wear masks. Some areas mask more heavily than others. Deal with it. Customers please stop harassing employees to remove their masks. We wear them because we want to. We w...

Working grocery has made me loose faith in humanity. Your average joe is a decent person but once you get them around food and money most people become total @$$ holes. Don't get me wrong the job is already demining enough, you have to work with arrogant customers that think you're pretty much a slave an...

I'm tired of kroger selecting certain liter items to get people into the store. But wait it's a digital coupon. 70% of clients fail to realize that and end up wondering why they didn't get the cheaper price. Kroger please stop this shi--t. It makes more work for us because your clients bicker about not g...
