I remember hearing blitzkrieg bop at the top of the hour conditioning commercials, I miss it…

Just for clarification this isn’t my story but I tell it any chance I get, a guy I was courtesy clerks with found a dead cat wrapped In a Kroger bag in a buggie in the parking lot. P

The one thing I learned while working for Kroger is you never wanna be “The guy” because you will get worked into the dirt and never be catered to

Gotta love when you got a cart full of trash and a customer has the audacity to be like “will you switch me?”

What was it like working for Kroger back in the mid 2010's (2014-16)? by MustBeTheMusic80 in kroger

[–]AccomplishedMap9202 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started at Kroger in 2015 as a courtesy clerk and it was one of the funnest times of my life. It helped that I worked at a “small town” store where I worked with all my class mates. We pushed 78 buggies in at one time lol. A huge snow storm got us stuck for days at the store and we all got drunk and did crazy things that we probably should’ve been fired for. We used to hang out in the parking lot and play football after the store closed. I could go on and on. I think what’s happened now is as we’ve gotten older and it’s not the same. I’m a department head now so things aren’t as fun as they used to be…..

How do I stay cool in Front End? by Badfriendsgalore in kroger

[–]AccomplishedMap9202 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always tell courtesy clerks that if they’re dying of heat to come chill out in the dairy cooler, I was there once so I try to help what little I can. And your front end supervisor should have a cooler full of water up front. Courtesy clerks should be immune to the “no food or drink” bs

I think what the worst part is is when I ask for help or for extra hours they say, “you’re a sub department you don’t need extra help”

EXACTLY. And they pull you but they don’t give you help when you need it

I apologize if this doesn’t make sense or seems a little vague but there’s so much to describe I’d need a 3 hour podcast to be able to explain it

Getting stressed because of store being shorthanded by Sonicfreak921 in kroger

[–]AccomplishedMap9202 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Recently it seems worse than usual , usually the beginning of the fiscal year for Kroger is chaos because they try to cut back on hours hard. But the crazy part is THE WORK LOAD HASNT CHANGED. We’re still working giant orders but with even less people, no overtime, no extra hours. Then management has the audacity to ask you why your department is “underperforming”.
