I was yelled by an team member. And team member posted it on her snapchat. No wonder Kroger is an white and black world. There's nothing in between. Been called retarded because I don't know how to use the new computer system. Was taught once. Cyberbullying by an team member and now it's influencing their population.
I'm going to take your side with this because I know how petty retail management is.
You would think with the shortage of workers everywhere there'd be a LOT more sensitivity training going on, but if anything, the bullying has stepped up instead of chilled out.
If you choose to stay, document everything---details of the abuse, times and dates. Get witnesses where you can. Start with your union rep. That's what they're there for.
This company is cruel an abusive. They do training as badly as they feel they can get away with. Documenting stuff they do to you is a good idea. Snapchat? Dang!
One is a retard. He has mentioned repeating grades and outright failing the ASVAB multiple times. He's barely young enough to drink. He doesn't, not that it would be an excuse. Nor that I would blame him. To be honest, I'm actually surprised that he doesn't.
The other is a bored boomer. He is too old to learn anything AND IT'S REALLY BAD. He was completely shocked when I demonstrated years-available standard features of his own phone to him.
Both have made jokes about accounting and theft.
The retard is too dumb to do paperwork right. He is honestly too retarded for the military.
The bored boomer has all kinds of curious and fancy questions about balancing the till.
While he is basically unable to work it.
Me?
I'd just like to shake Rodney's hand.
And to make things clear for the FBI, nonviolently so. Not even with an entire magazine of jacketed hollowpoints. Because that would be unlawful. And I respect the law.
Bring this matter up to management. Racism is 100% not allowed. Bullying is not either. Report them. This b.s. is why I don't do social media under my real name and keep details limited as to not identify my self. Please don't quit. That's the cowards way out and the person who verbally assulted you wins. This matter can be professionally hr dealt with at the store level. If it's an ongoing issue you can file an ethics report and union grievance for harassment.
If the individual is whistle blowing info about stuff that is immorally occurring at the store level they too have protection laws.
This type of thing needs to be delicately handled and I think to handle the case carefully you need to gage order this info online as to not blow it out of proportion further.
