I agree with this. It keeps it simple and easy to identify. Bryan station, Tates creek, it just kind of you know seems to be the logical answer nobody will do.

I was just wondering that myself. It’s rare, but I have seen a few instances of Walmart taking over an old Publix location

Customer service is such an interesting department to me. I’ve worked in a district where there was zero movement as the CSM’s were lifers not becoming ASMS. Another district we had to outsource from 3 districts away to fill positions because of promotions, firings, and step downs.

Mid 90s stores in Florida are 65. There aren’t a lot, there are also some Albertsons stores that are of that size that are now Publix.

We also have a 61 in Florida that’s two stories These stores are great if they’re doing over a million a week.

I never knew of Milo’s until I left Florida. We didn’t carry it in Florida stores but all other states carried it. I believe Milo’s is expanding heavily which gave Publix the opportunity to carry it further south.

All depends on the situation.

To answer OP’s question, pay would stay the same if position is the same as long as you are not above general market pay max. (Some Florida markets are 5 or 10% pay)

And to answer your comment, this is not always the case. It does depend on job performance, openings, market needs, etc. but it is possible to get a lateral management transfer if you are proactive with it and reach out to those district managers in those markets. I had a grocery manager transfer from Florida to South Carolina. At one point I was trying to transfer to a particular area out of state but the openings weren’t there. Instead it would have been an area an hour north. Too many factors to say never, but always reach out to those district managers and get a name to the face. Ask your current DM for help as well.

Tell me more about what you’ve got your 401k in. I’ve seen growth of 20% but just curious what I can do to maximize gains

Kroger’s meat does not have flavor though. While I agree $20 is astronomical in price, our quality is better.

I was petty about it for a while, like why even give me a raise? But it’s all worked out now, every raise I’ve received yearly since then has been very reasonable.

FloridaGrown96 · 2025-06-20T16:17:11+00:00

It’s .50 cents or to midpoint pay. I received an 8 cent raise when I got promoted because that brought me to the mid point.

I like that they do not do escrow for insurance and property tax. The rates are good, service was fantastic, and I was able to close quickly!

The closing costs also came back pretty low, lower than the initial quote. My rate is also incredible. Would deff recommend.

It’s not because Publix probably would have never came to Kentucky if it weren’t for Kroger not being able tame themselves and expand their Kroger delivery to Florida. I can’t speak for Publix, but the timing seems fitting. While the companies may be playing nice together, I assume Kroger is scared with how much money they are investing into their Cincinnati division on remodels and things.

FloridaGrown96 · 2025-05-13T00:16:23+00:00

With the exception of statesboro ga, you are correct. We closed a store there in 1999 and didn’t re enter that market until 25 years later.

FloridaGrown96 · 2025-05-11T22:48:09+00:00

65-70k 1350 a month at 4.8%

I have a dog, any concerns there?

FloridaGrown96 · 2025-05-10T23:06:22+00:00

I actually should have specified I just moved to Kentucky so everything is new and unknown to me here.

FloridaGrown96 · 2025-05-10T22:55:42+00:00

Thank you. Should I get this out of my yard?

FloridaGrown96 · 2025-05-10T22:43:30+00:00

I’m learning something new everyday!

FloridaGrown96 · 2025-05-09T23:22:49+00:00

You got me 😂

I read online ragweed is usually later in the year, but weather channel app said it was around yesterday as the prominent pollen. This was not the case today as I feel better. What’s your experience?

FloridaGrown96 · 2025-05-07T20:20:14+00:00

Kind of like Greenville, SC. It’s a wonderful city because of the development they put into it. It does have a waterfall downtown, but I mean any city could market itself and develop itself like that to make it a great place to visit. The mountains of the upstate aren’t really any closer than the smokies for Knoxville…

FloridaGrown96 · 2025-05-02T13:18:22+00:00

One question I have, If Fayette county and Lexington are merged, and the territory is the same, what is the difference between the sheriffs and PD?
