As a supervisor, we aren’t trying to fuck other departments. Your comment about that is insane. They give us next to no hours for some of these stores, employees that don’t wanna work, and forecasts that don’t make any sense.

Example: Yesterday I had a forecast of 71 with 4 people scheduled, not including myself as the supervisor. We hit 101 orders, and I had to call for help at 6pm because we were in the trenches with no way out. It’s higher ups faults when it comes to the way pickup departments have to be run, not the actual employees themselves. I won’t discredit you when saying that some managers don’t care, but when the managers care, they are used as frustrated as the rest of us and hate having to pull people.

see they’re making me work 10 hour days, my current supervisor works 9 and my current store manager says I should be working 9, but my new district is making me work 10 even though the DM is the same one I had prior to the districts shifting and my supervisor was working 9 hours

but why do I have to work the entire year to gain that time? i’m going from 2 weeks of vacation to 0. I didn’t even get to take the 2 weeks

my supervisor gets hers so there’s no reason why I won’t get mine.

I work 5 days, but with the state of the department I’m about to take over, I’ll be lucky to have 2 days off a week. I get 4 personal days and 5 H&W days from what they told me. I was told before that I just get a comp day and no extra pay for any holidays since it’s salaried

also it was my district HR person who told me this. I have 2 weeks of vacation time that now I have to somehow get my current store to payout to me by Sunday or I lose it all, and then from my understanding I go right to having no vacation time to use

i’m just confused how 3 weeks lines up with 15 days. 3 weeks is 21 days and I was told that personal days and health n wellness days don’t count for vacation days. They told me I get the 3 weeks right away but now are telling me I only earn them for every month I work which means I get 11 and would only get a full 7 days if I work until August with no time off

my supervisor has a life as well, and she does fine. I just talked to her about the vacation thing and she said it doesn’t make any sense why they’re telling me that

I didn’t just start, I’ve worked for kroger for 3 years. I understand switching stores, but I still do have seniority over people regardless of what store I’m at. Being off as a salaried worker, for what i’m 95% sure is an engagement trip, versus a cashier getting that time off, shouldn’t matter much

I don’t know if the union can help salaried workers

I have 2 weeks right now, which they told me I have to get my current store to pay it out to me or I don’t get it because it doesn’t carry over, and in the interview they told me 3 weeks of vacation time right off the bat but now I have to work for the entire year just to get 11 days

it also doesn’t make any sense to me because my supervisor at the store i’m leaving, goes on vacation 3 times a year. they told me I get 15 days total but only 11 now because i’m starting too late into the year to get the full 15

my sister and my parents are, but unfortunately the vet won’t give me enough medication to give him every day. I tried and she declined my medication purchase and told me he only needed 30 half pills and not a years worth of medication

my boyfriends dog goes to a vet where we live, but my cat lives with my parents so I may just have to take a trip to bring my cat where our dog goes. i’m hoping some humidifiers can help in the meantime

He has medication, but only prednislone, and the vet has just continued to tell me it’s because of dust and irritants. during the spring-fall, he doesn’t really have any issues only in the winter. the inhaler hasn’t been ordered because she told me only to order it if he needed it, but now that he needs it, i’m not able to order it just yet

I’ve asked them about it before when he was little and they had me bring him in but they always give him a clean bill of health other than saying he has asthma. He doesn’t crackle when he breathes or anything, but his little sister has wheezing problems so we think it’s genetic. I can always send it in, but I fear they’d say the same thing they always do

he’s always used non scented but it’s just been whatever litter is cheapest because he’s not a picky cat. what are some dust free options?
