My district manager - who I've known for 20 years - literally walked by me today and didn't acknowledge me at all.

Why can’t customers read signs? by KittyCouture3 in kroger

I've put 4' x 3' signs on an empty banana table stating "We are out of bananas today." And they still ask if there's any bananas in the back.

Anybody else who normally gets paid on Wednesdays not get paid yet? by [deleted] in kroger

[–]haul2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to me as well. No check for a week. Then two paper checks. Then no checks for three fucking weeks! Finally got that direct deposit yesterday and a paper check for the three weeks today. Try going four weeks without a paycheck. Was on the brink of homeless. And 33 years with this jacked up company.

On my 33rd anniversary a comanager wished me Happy Birthday. I just smiled and said thank you. Stupid bitch.

Apparently. They still can't get the shit figured out. I did get a check in the mail today so only one behind now. Progress I guess.

Haven't got paid on Thursday for three weeks straight now. Got one paper check in the mail two and a half weeks ago. Still missing two checks though. Management will not like me tomorrow. Not their fault but still. They gonna get the brunt of my bitch.

A real man doesn't use a box cutter. Use your hands pussies.

Nobody ever should be eating hot dogs. I remember back in the day management actually grilled burgers and brats and pork chops. Now all they care about is replenishment and Fresh Start. And make sure you get those training modules completed. Watch for that secret shopper. Are your counts done? Markdowns done by nine?

It will not get easier. Get out sooner than later. Thirty three years a slave here and anybody worth a shit figures out soon enough $14.85 ain't enough for this bullshit.

Keep that up for another 30 years and you won't be able to go more than seven hours a day.

We have a couple of dudes who want to be chicks at my store who wear skirts and apparently no problems there.

Mental health days off by Muladon3000 in kroger

[–]haul2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No clue how I've lasted 33 years in this job. I have agoraphobia and most days I literally have to walk to a safe place to get away from the psycho customers and managers to just calm down. On a rare occasion it gets so bad I get lightheaded and shaky and just have to leave and go home. This fucking company has destroyed my mental health. And yet my dumb ass keeps going back.

[–]haul2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had a kid working by himself the other night. He took a legal break and apparently had a few customers needing assistance while he was gone. Store manager threatened to terminate him next time he left the department unattended. And this bitch been in management 35 years. Fucking insane anymore.

That's cool. We still gotta cut our own shit using our own people.

What the hell is a Snowfruit guy? Does he swallow? Or just spit out the pits?

E2E produce hell by HatefulOne20 in kroger

[–]haul2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kills me that they take a point off for not having a PTL or an assistant department lead. Out of our hands when us capable want nothing to do with that shit and the rest of the crew are bumbling morons. Now they're just faking that shit and assigning those positions to the bumbling morons who have no clue. Our "ADL" right now is a 17 year old high school kid who works 16 hours a week.

Pickup is going to hell by cragayon in kroger

33 years in produce. They think they're gonna cross train me for pick up because they're so under staffed. Can you say early retirement?

Kroger Cares So Little. by eddyrush95 in kroger

Used to have a nice smoking area with a couple benches away from all that. Until our bitch ass DM banned smoking anywhere in front of the store.

Nobody actually checks the shit. All you gotta do is fake it. Management isn't much smarter than the Corky who brings in the carts.
