Retirement, anything I should know before hand?
Permalink   


This may seem odd, first time joining and posting but I am thinking of retiring shortly and wanted to know if anyone had any experience with that or advice?

All I know is if I worked at Kroger long enough to retire, the last think I would do would be post on a Kroger employee forum.  I would have put Kroger behind me.  Maybe someone will come along with some information.  Good luck to you!

 Of course follow through with everything on the social security administration end, but also get with your human resources dept. and make sure you're getting everything you earned---sick hours, vacation time, what ever. And check to see if you can follow through with cobra extended insurance if you need it, that's important too. Glad you can retire, wish I could

You may have to wait 6 months or more in order to see your pension/retirement kick in. Kroger is very behind in the times getting  the money to their people...

I am honestly surprised Kroger has any employees that are ABLE to retire, what with their amazing turnover rate.

 You probably just didn't work at Kroger long enough to realize that there are alot of oldtimers that work there.  I'm surprised you haven't noticed posts that refer to it, there was one just the other day.

He is so busy looking for insults to his own posts there's probably a lot of stuff he's missing. A pity.

You're so busy posting anon and attempting to flame me that there's a lot of stuff you're missing. I would say a pity but the fewer your posts the better.

I worked in Front End and did not take the time to get to know the 100 + individual employees working within the store. Frankly I barely had the time. If that's a sin then I guess I'm a sinner. Eat a bag of scorpions.

 Insults he deserves for being so stupid and then acting like he knows something.

There's actually more long term employees than what you realize. Our DSD reciever has worked there around 40 years, he started out as a bagger when he was like 16.
