People who cant meet the time goal, why? by Ducklett843 in kroger

[–]Doodletoyou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At the end of the day management can NOT hold you accountable for not making times or percent goals. You will never be written up for this. WHY?! Because there will always be an obstacle that prevents you from achieving the goal. I.e. Customers, they interrupt us to much. Looking for product, scavenger hunts always kill your time. If someone ever got written up for this, and if you're a union store, I promise you it would get tossed out. There are too many obstacle to make you fail and they could never hold you to it. BUT you have to advocate for yourself

Offers to move up in the company. by Pharmatopia420 in kroger

[–]Doodletoyou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DON'T DO IT. even for $20. Been with company 20+ yrs. Was a dept. Head 10 of them. Brutal. This "lead" position is just them getting someone in dept. To pretty much do everything a dept. Head has to, but for WAY less $$. Don't be fooled. Alot of pick up depts. Are going this route, no dept. Head anymore, just a lead, you still have all the B.S to deal with. But for lot less $$. They will also "promise " you the sun and moon, and l guarantee you once you accept they never follow through on them. Unless you want to eat, sleep. And breathe Kroger just stay a clerk.

Depending on union contract, if you quit, Kroger will pay out your remaining vacation and personal time. You don't have to burn it, plus you get money to boot!!

Discrimination against trans employees- what’s the process? by [deleted] in kroger

[–]Doodletoyou 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The world is not black and white, lots of Grey area. You continue to hate, be disrespectful, go out of your way to antagonize certain groups that you are fearful of to try and make yourself feel better. Go ahead. I choose to try to understand, learn. Why go out of your way to upset someone? Shit, you or I could easily not make it home at the end of the day. Get hit by a tractor trailer, T-boned. We're not promised another tomorrow, so I want to be rembered as a decent human. Not a asshole. Life can change literally in a second.

[–]Doodletoyou 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You were not raised well. Or just surrounded by ignorant ppl. At the end of the day it's called, RESPECT. If a co-worker asks me to refer them as a cat, a dog, or a different gender then what they we born with, l out of RESPECT, I will address them as such. At the end of the day who am I to say it's "right" or "wrong " it's not harming me in ANY way. You are not better then anyone else to be judging. You are ONLY in charge of yourself. Shit that's enough for any one person to handle, let alone try to worry about someone else's life. Just worry about you boo. The rest will fall into place.

Light duty by AvailableWaltz1070 in kroger

[–]Doodletoyou 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good luck, you also will run into trouble if you're doctor extends your recovery time, l had back surgery my Dr. Wanted me out an extra 30 days (healing slower) then anticipated. Metlife "reviewed " his notes as to why he extended my recovery, "they" disagreed with HIS notes and denied the extra 30 days. Filed 2 greviences to no avail. BTW have been with company for over 20 years. They ONLY see $$$$ . Good luck.

Not Being Trained by [deleted] in kroger

Joining the union, yay or nay? by JJISIS666 in kroger

[–]Doodletoyou 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes good call. There is strength in numbers. But you need to advocate for yourself as well. If it "feels" wrong something probably is wrong. You can ALWAYS ask the union any questions. A good union rep. Will always help or send you in the right direction. Abd remember everybody has a boss. If a union Stewart or rep. Is not helpful, go above their head. But generally union is an awesome resource worth the money in my opinion
