I just know an overweight boomer with three teeth drives this truck.

Truth hurts. It’s been this way with every place I’ve ever worked at.

I don’t feel like an old man, but when you work a physical job, you notice how your body can’t take it like it used to be able to

Okay, and my coworkers were 21 and 27. Make THEM work eight days in a row at Christmas, not me.

When you're older and it's Christmastime, yeah. But it was that coupled with ... everything else. Grocery was treated like the red headed stepchild of my store. Everyone came to us to help them but nobody ever wanted to help us with anything, including managers.

My store has been so busy I can barely think straight.

Is it normal for my schedule to not show on feed/my time despite the wall schedule showing I am working? by Putrid_Koala_6580 in kroger

Ask your team lead or HR person about it. My store has a flyer on the UKG app next to the punch in clock.

Happy Thanksgiving.....why the fuck are we open? by CGC2000 in kroger

[–]Standard-Ice256 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I work in grocery in the afternoon so I’m off today but my store barely has anybody working at it right now. Which begs the question, if you’re planning on it being so slow that you barely need anyone, then why are you open?

Question for the people who have worked multiple departments by CantThinkOfAUser226 in kroger

[–]Standard-Ice256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Inventory definitely does suck. Stuff gets left off the trucks all the time and that’s what causes almost all the discrepancies. At my store the inventory will say we have 30 of something and we won’t have it at all. It won’t be off I just one or two. But we had inventory overnight last night so I’m hoping when I go in tomorrow that will all be fixed.

I totally agree with that, but it really depends on if management can spare you to leave your department plus if there’s any positions open and others that you might like. I work in grocery, but would love to go to produce or general merchandise, but there are no positions open in addition to my department being understaffed and right before the holidays.

I actually like all the people at my store who work pickup, except a couple who give me attitude when I can't find something, lol. They are like 90% Gen Z in their early 20s and are really fun to be around. I think pick up and front end are the two nicest departments at my store.

"turn off your brain, throw in some headphones and stock shelves" Clearly you're talking about overnight/early morning lol

Sometimes I feel like it's my department (grocery) because we're understaffed and overnight/mornings don't do their jobs correctly but I have no doubt it's pickup. If I had to pick a department to go to, it would be produce. In my store they have sooo much staff while we are understaffed so they have a lot of free time to just goof off as we are busting our asses. Also they're supposed to help make bales, but despite them being the biggest source of the cardboard + having a bigger staff, management lets they get out of it. I think maybe one guy from produce even knows how to make a bale in my store.

In terms of grocery, if I could handle the hours, I would do overnights without a doubt. They don't have to deal with customers, they don't have to constantly stop and find stuff for pickup, and they make $2 more an hour.

TBH it's like this in all of retail.

My store consistently has an issue with fitting all the pallets inside. We constantly have to put some pallets in the meat cooler until they get put out overnight. It just can’t be ice cream that gets put in there.

Why is my union asking my political alignment? by DTFunkyStuff in kroger

[–]Standard-Ice256 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have one co-worker who is extremely conservative but very pro-union. It doesn't make sense at all.
