been a long time since i've posted here! no longer a night crew zombie, but a daytime drug GM slave! been stocking hand sanitizer and hand soap like crazy (although my department head tells me to throw it up wherever in the soap section/endcaps) and the amount of customers who ask me how much tissue costs even though i'm not in grocery anymore is insane! luckily i'm nice so I hit it with a telxon, but dang, people can't even put up price tags? i'd totally do it if people would teach me, but everyone's even lazier nowadays...
Tags aren't that hard once you get someone to show you how to get the correct stuff printed. I'm, personally, not working for Kroger anymore but I come around to help with what I still remember. It's still as dumb as I remember and things have just gotten worse.
Best of luck to you zombie!

About a month ago, I was putting up prices every night. I gave up because paper towels and toilet paper(the 4 to 8 varieties we got in) would sell out daily and price tags would get lost. And, then different varieties would come in.
Currently, tp and paper towels are not selling out daily. We are gradually getting the paper towel aisle back in order with price tags.
There is a price scanner at the end of the aisle but most packages are too big to be able to scan the barcode with the limited space between scanner and shelf below it.

I enjoy working nights/evenings more because I'm tired of working with rude @$$ customers. At least after 10 pm I don't have to worry about running into one after that. Night crew is acknowledged the least for being the hero.
Offsite fuel suuuuuuuuuuuuuuxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx at this location.
The workload is designed for two employees at a time and it's 100-110 degrees all week but that's not what we have hours for.
We got one employee at a time unless it's load day or unless the bipolar OCD **** of a former lead is pulling items at the store.
So nothing gets done but now it's our fault. Ten or twenty minute jobs stretch out to hours and hours if they even get done at all because we are at the window every thirty seconds.
I'm drinking a lot and hung over a lot and my eyes and face are constantly twitching and schedule shenanigans have me at risk of being suspended or fired.
I ran into a former fuel lead at Winco and he says it's pretty great. Who knew? Maybe I'll get lucky enough to be fired.
