They had all frozen product piled messing in our area. I signed up using a fake email (that was not confirmed) and a username. I could still sign on and post....

Contacting union regarding schedule issues.

Our lead writes the schedule. He posts it and approves it. Then gets crabby as hell over it when he reads it on the wall. He goes no no and starts penciling in and shifting things around like 2 days before the schedule is to occur. Multiple times he's penciled me in for shifts on approved pto and vacation mo...

Kroger : Stop this wall of shame for those that do not do fresh start daily.
(Preview)
Kroger : Stop this wall of shame for those that do not do fresh start daily. Weekly was fine but a wall of shame is disgraceful. Not everyone works 5 days a week. Many work part time or 2-4 days a week Vacations happen and you need to not get snippy with us when we take 1-3 weeks and harass us abt it when we...

Corporate is coming Thursday
(Preview)
We're suppose to be "Grand Opening" ready. We have one person on vacation. Both the department leader and backup have to go to mandatory meetings this week. That leaves two people to get everything done so corporate can come in and tell us what we're doing wrong.

Glad school is starting soon. Sick of full time hours.
(Preview)
Dear kroger: I am not failing college level classes because you will not/refuse to give me time off to complete the courses. I did not pay $3-5k for each quarter out of pocket to just fail it or get low gpa because you insist on working us full time hours. If you would honor availablity requests I'd not ha...

Use to think my coworker was a good worker until I realized how little they know how to do.
(Preview)
Anyone else think your fellow coworker was hard worker then when you get around them and see their every move you realize they're only "acting" the part? I know in union jobs that's sort of what you get. If it's not in his job description he won't do it. He has a few reasonable accommodations but he does no...

Guess we'll know sep 30 2024 if the merge will happen or not.

Not sure about you but 2 decades of my life towards one employer is a long time. Long commitment. Why did I stay that long? Let's see... stable paycheck, union representation. Some times you have to suck up the shi--tines to have a stable paycheck. I've worked both union and non union jobs and will only w...

Going back to calling out once a month because I can.
(Preview)
I hate to say it but I'm going back to "calling out" once a month because the attendance policy allows us to do so. I have so much sick pay saved up I want to use it. I never get "sick" and want to take advantage of it before the "merge" goes through (if it does). There is no point letting 3 weeks of unused sick p...

Stop skeleton-crewing your stores kroger!

I've been in grocery for 20+ yrs and more than half of that with kroger. I've never seen employee hours so low. Workers are exhausted, customer lines long, stores repeatedly reset to remove merch from shelves and push merch customers do not want... Workers are often under paid and the bs pulled on work...

Kroger screwed me over with an 8 day work week. Sorry calling out on day 5.
(Preview)
Kroger, I thought I had a fowl proof equation of requesting every 5 or 8 days off so you would not screw me over with an 8+ day work week. Once in a blue moon you'll screw me over by not honoring one of those day off requests. Sorry kroger, each time I work 7+ days in a row I always get sick after day 7 and you loos...
