I work with too many old grumpy associates.
Permalink   


My store has a lot of 15+ union seniority associates and most of them are grumpy as hell. I know the longer you do this job the more draining and gruesome it gets. You eventually stop caring all together but you people don't need to be miserable @$$ holes about it. Instead of quitting you keep working a meaningless job where you are bitter and miserable. The longer you work the worse you people get.

I've had to work 2-3 jobs most of my life and you people are miserable asses working one job. If you're not happy just: Quit! But, wait you're a slave to the cushy pay check and don't want to go any where so you're stuck in a rut.

 

If you treat your associates like garbage they'll be less apt to stay. Regardless of which store I work there's at least 1-5 of you jerks. Look... I'm going to be frank.. the only reason you @$$es haven't been fired is due to union protection. Once you've hit the 20+ year mark you're scott free for everything except sh--it that could get you instantly fired on the spot. If you people were thrown into the real world... you wouldn't survive 6 months on this attitude. 

(I know this thread is pretty dead.. But I post sh-it here that would be pulled instantly on r/kroger.) Scream f-you back if you want I don't check replies.

 OP: Judging from your typical posts on this forum, you are ALREADY almost exactly like those "old people oldtimers/lifers" that you are complaining about.   I  am guessing you are only about 27 years old or 31 years old or something like that, right?   

It will be horrible how YOU will be if you keep working at Kroger and end up as a 56-year old snarling grump ---- EVEN WORSE THAN THE EMPLOYEES you are griping about right now.   

You'll be even worse than they are!    Quit Kroger NOW before it gets any worse for you.  Please! (With sugar on top!)   Go somewhere where you can find at least a LITTLE something to be happy about.   You're 100 percent constant negativity is draining on me and (I bet) a lot of other readers here.

OP reminds me of Peter Griffin on family guy when he did his podcast of You Know What Grinds My Gears? Then goes on a rant of what irritates him.

 You're catching some **** for this post but I for one 100% agree with you. And I can speak to this **** cuz I'm 2 things: former retail associate, and fast getting old. Tho I take pride in not being an old grumpy f u c k. You're right. Nothing more annoying than someone who bitches incessantly about something----but aint finna change it.
