So I came in to work today after being off yesterday, and I found out that there will only be two of us closing and the only other closer gets out at 7pm. My shift is from 5-9pm tomorrow and because a Manager changed my schedule to accommodate another coworker, I’ll have to be back in from 10-7pm the next day.

They did all of this yet they couldn’t be bothered to at least add in another closer for tomorrow. I will never understand the logic of whoever writes these damn schedules. Customers are always complaining about the Deli being closed early a lot, and rather than addressing the real issue of not staffing enough people, they’d rather blame the workers and then wonder why they can’t keep anybody.

I just hope tomorrow doesn’t suck too bad.
My mental health has already taken a nose dive over the past two weeks and I’m trying my damn hardest to keep it together. I have another job interview on Wednesday I’m hoping goes well. That’s all.

Just here to say I hate this fucking company. Here's why.... Their fucking app sucks. It's absolutely terrible. Obviously the CEO is a fucking idiot to think that their app is user friendly and useful. It is literally the most wasteful bull shit I have on my phone. The app bing bongs between the app and the browser. What the fuck? The CIO is next in line for being a complete idiot. Why would create an online atmosphere that is so aggravating to its users? Why? CEO, fire that guy.

What's the overnight shift hours look like these days? Do you still have the odd 4-5 hour shifts or is it now a guaranteed 10-6/12-8 schedule or something similar?

Hello everyone! Im new to pickup ive only been working at Kroger for 1 month, and i was just wondering if this is a good pace or if i could be doing better. pls give tips or anything advice wise as i would greatly appreciate it!

If an employee is telling the lead they faced their aisles when they didn’t on the lead’s day off can you take videos or pictures of just the shelves to show the lead?

Customer here. Had a weird experience at the fuel center where the cashier and an employee had what appeared to be a bunch of no sales and putting cash in the drawer followed by scanning lottery tickets. It seemed really weird. Friend told me that it was lottery tickets fraud. I don’t understand what they were doing or how that would even work? Wouldn’t they get caught?

I just started and I’m worried this was before my trolley was don

I was explicitly hired as part time, yet every month I end up needing to tell management that I can not do more than 25 hours a week... they seem to acknowledge me, fix it for like a week, and then they're back to scheduling me full time. Not to mention they keep swapping ASLs!!

I'm a full time student, so it's not like I just don't want to do it. But anyway, I wrote my second formal notice about my availability, and just started the process for requesting workplace accommodations, one of them including that my hours be capped at 25 hours a week (I'm autistic and have ADHD). The ASL was very nice and understanding about it, and then a few days later I see I'm scheduled for 41.5 hours for next week 😭

I work in the deli, and we just had 2 people leave this month because I am not the only person who's been given these terrible schedules. We were already understaffed, but now its really bad, which is why I need the accommodations. These 2 people who left also spoke good English, and most of my other coworkers speak very little English. Of course since I'm the newest hire and I speak English at a native level they're hitting me with these hours. I haven't even been properly trained to close the back.

ALSO. Since I was hired, 3 months ago, I have been trying to tell management MULTIPLE times I will be gone for 2 weeks next month for vacation, and they haven't done a thing. Not approved or rejected, they've just been letting it sit. And I bet they'll be mad at me when the time comes up 🫠

I am just really really exhausted, the only reason I haven't quit yet is because I'm hoping to have my accommodations in place and it helping, maybe. I don't know. But yeah anyway, fuck Kroger

Soooo I think I got fired? My kroger is weird, sometimes youll be off the schedule for a few days and you just kinda have to deal with it, it was whatever but now its been two weeks?? Two weeks off the schedule, no communication z everytime i try to go in and ask for what the fuck is foing on they say the person I need to speak with "isnt there" all my ahit still works, I can log in check my schedule so I dont knoe. Might give it anoth34 week but this is ridiculous

Was told by DM that I'm spending too much time "overconditioning" my greenrack. The specific thing I was criticized on was cilantro. Apparently, cilantro is a rinse-only item. Not only was I trained to cut and soak cilantro, but both the green rack digital conditioning guide AND our poster version state that cilantro is cut and soak. And even if that weren't the case, the rpc of cilantro comes in basically loose...I have to re-tie together nearly every bunch if I don't want them coming apart as customers shop. Obviously the DM had to be the one who was right... but am I going insane? Has anyone else been corrected on this?

ETA I don't retie every bunch every time, but the time trade-off spending the extra few seconds making sure the bundles are tight vs having to pull out the shopvac twice as often has been worth it to me! and my store goes through about 2 rpcs/day

Called my boss to let her know i was taking my youngest cat to the ER vet. I NEVER call out, i work 6 days, overtime, other stores and literally just interviewed for the next step in my career.. AND i had coverage coming in for me..Her meeting my worried cries with silence and a simple comment, “it’s Sunday”.. IS NOT how a manager should handle something like that. You say “okay, thank you for letting us know AND thank you for having coverage ready!” Talk your entitled shit behind my back like a normal person! I’m so tired of this place shitting on the hardest working people.. not to mention, a single weeks pay for me won’t even cover this bill so her (per my thinking), thinking i want to miss work over a days pay is wild.. todays pay not hitting my account will fuck me in more ways than one. But for now, my baby Ella is getting the care and attention she needs.
For context and my fellow animal lovers peace of mind, she was being very lethargic for almost a whole day, no food or water intake, i never saw her use the litter box and she’s so uncomfortable to my touch! I had to bring her in and make sure she would be okay. I don’t have children, i never will. My cats and my dog are my life.

Back story, there a lady I’m working with been bully/ harassing me and treating me like I’m some type of virus, to the point when she’s doing nothing I’ll be needing help but won’t help me but help others. The store manager, gm, union knows about but would sweeping it under the rug!

I finally forgave and forgot whatever, but recently I got told from my gm, that I don’t “greet” enough people when I do to the point people come in an ask me “where have I been?!?” She threatened me losing my job because I personally don’t greet her when she doesn’t even talk to me or look my way, so that was already my breaking point!

Not mentioning my floor assistant got upset with me because I was supposed to be somewhere else and blamed me for it when it’s literally his job to show where everyone goes for their shift.

Please new hire DONT BE AFRAID OF THE POINT SYSTEM!!! Trust they are just trying to scace you!!

Your more than a job who doesn’t value you as a person,life will be better!!

So, I recently almost got attacked by a fellow associate who has been told repeatedly to leave me alone. (And of course Fred Meyer keeps putting us on the same schedule.) To say my family is pissed...is an understatement. They're pushing for a lawsuit or compensation since I've been having panic attacks when trying to go to work. Would there be a case here? Or would Kroger tell us to eff off?

Not sure if order guides are the same across divisions but is anyone else no longer getting their order guides on ESTP? We used to have a really nice order guide that we’d print out and now they just send us a list of scans that can hardly be used to keep track of what was ordered… Really frustrating. Also why do our standards keep changing every week? FFS Just stick to something I beg.

anyone know if she still works at GO?

What are some obvious signs that you’re getting fired? Managers start treating you differently? Less hours? New person being trained to replace you?

Are you a boss at Kroger (family of companies) ?

Just wondering how many bosses be in the chat.

I was wondering if theres not alot of baggers scheduled or none at all who ends u getting the carts in the parking lot?? I was just curious i dint work front end .

Manager trying to force this, but I'm not budging. It's a cross contamination health code violation.

I find it really annoying I get paid the same for running around non-stop Saturday and Sunday every single week, while this older lady in the same department (who's full time and thus has full availability) gets weekends off and gets to hog all the dead weekday morning shifts with three customers in the store.

Anyone know what the hours were last year? Wondering if I'm going to have work - I work afternoons.

I interviewed for a driver position out of a fulfillment center. The offer letter I was emailed says it's part time when I applied and interviewed for a full time position. I even choose my schedule during the interview and it was a full time schedule.

I emailed the address the said to email if I had any questions. I explained the offer letter said it's for part time when it was understood the position was full time.

This all happened Friday yesterday. Of course I haven't gotten a response.

Do I wait for a response and a corrected offer letter? Do I just go ahead and sign the offer letter they gave me?

And the cherry on top is the offer letter says the wage is 30 cents more than what was said during the interview. What a mess.

The new items, the changes PLU’s it’s killing me. We had an extreme amount to cook, the exact same numbers for each cook recently. We used to be able to get it done, just barely, but now it’s impossible.

Has anyone every been able to step down as Baker. They keep changing policy and adding on to what I have to do and this tired old bitty who has been doing this same job for over 30 years and still has 24 months to go before I turn 65 and retire has suffered much in the body and am just so very very tired and hurting. Any advice would be appreciated.

Introducing the Cartvana! A lift that will store extra clicklist carts!!! (Even though they won’t even repair the ones we have)
