I don't have a clue on God's green earth how the management from this store survived the Great Management Poach of 2019. All four of these miscreants need to go away and be holding signs that say "will work for food". The morale at this store is incredibly low and management likes to call out individuals during huddle in a negative sense.
First they need to learn a little bit of people skills and learn how to manage. Don't bark orders...this isn't the military. Ask politely, give direction...perhaps even coach a little bit. Not these clowns....we are expected to be clairvoyant. Sorry the only medium i like is my salsa.
Second, they totally violate ALL aspects of the contract....not honoring people's availability, scheduling vacations outside of seniority, and basically having not clue one how to do their job. Keep racking up those grievances, I'm sure that Guiness could create a new category for your ineptitude.
The company provides you with arbitrary numbers for production, and you demand that to be met, despite being asked by numerous people how to make that happen, and you refuse to give direction, or even simply look to see if the numbers are correct.
Poor attitude, you guys really show this one....don't like your job....find a new one. I'm sure McDonald's or Wal-Mart will be glad to have flummoxes like yourselves. If Kroger was a person, and you wanted to give it an enema, you'd shove the hose right through the front door of store 980.
When, and not IF, but when Kroger goes down the tubes, you can thank the fine management team at store 980 and others like them for running off all the good help and causing the customers ultimately to suffer.
Here's hoping to a holiday round of management poaching!!
I started using the ethics hotline like crazy after my store transfer because I started enduring more sh*it and got tired of it. I started whistle blowing all the bull that was going on in the store.

I cannot believe you posted your store number. You should never ever do that.

agreed. whether you know it or not when you state your store number you make it bad for everyone there. while they may not know it is you posting, to 'get back and punish the one' who is doing the posting, they may in turn punish the whole store with more workload and less hours. and they will do it by union standards so that even if you contact the union they will not do anything because the store is "punishing you" by union protocol, therefore no retaliation is being done according to the union.

Get a life who cares? Why do you even care? it doesnt impact your life what so ever! who you actually quit youd move on but you didnt. Man what a loser
Worked at this location for a few years before I transferred closer to Indianapolis. My time there was HORRIBLE! Every night they would put me with "the best worker" who was a schizo dude that spent 3/4th of his shift talking about wrestling and throwing things in the dairy cooler around to make a mess on purpose because the department head held him accountable, but he could get away with it because management liked him. He would hand me a chocolate milk from the shelf and tell me to join him in a drink then leave the container on the shelf in the back. The department head at the time was trying to pin the milk on him but management liked this weirdo so much they ignored it. From what I gathered from another 980 refugee the guy still works there and is even worse now. I feel bad for any department they stick him in.
Employees during the day taking food to eat off the shelves was the thing that really soiled me. When you go into the break room you always had coffee for the Keurig, but nobody ever scanned it out as a sample or brought it up front to ring out. I found out later that in the morning two employees would grab pods and the water for the machine off the shelf and take it there as the "courtesy crew". I talked to a manager about it but they did not care. I worked in the front at the end of my time at that store and it was amazing the theft employees got away with.
On one hand I enjoyed closing because we had to do zero work because our co-managers were lazy. In reality its a dead end store and you need to leave to move up unless you blow the store manager.
If you are working at 980. transfer to any other store in the area. It is better believe me! Stay strong!

What city is this store located?
J-980 is in Noblesville Indiana! Off Hazel Dell!
Damn, so weird to see a thread on this forum for 980! Glad I quit when I did!

Excellent post. Certainly applies in some other locations, too.
Hope other stores are not this bad.Not there anymore. I didn't like smokers getting multiple breaks, other people taking long breaks and then getting overtime. Managers not wanting to hear about it. No accountability.
