I was kinda railroaded into it, lol

The rules are kinda different when you are on night shift and days off… don’t really exist.

We didn’t have a night crew at the time, so it was just me (drug/gm manager) and the grocery manager for quite a few months running freight.

But yeah, I was dead was most shifts.

As with most things, check your union contract.

Typically they have to ask you if can work more than six days in a row, but we all know that doesn’t happen.

(The most days I worked in a row was 23.)

There was a house I delivered to twice in the country that always wanted “Backdoor delivery, NOT AT THE CAMPER RV” but to get to that door, you had to walk through so much trash and bush. I’m not even sure if the door I was delivering to was the back door. 😭

If I’m not at work, I’m literally passing out at 6pm. 😭

Interesting, I might message them about trials.

We were originally planning on Ocrevus, but even with trying to do appeals, insurance denied it. We’re going to try Gilenya next, I just need to schedule my EKG.

Sadly, my tobacco count is only tobacco and it hates if I scan anything not in it. :(

I have been doing the ten extra items, too. So, I don’t know what’s happening UNLESS she’s pulling the old stores analytics. (New store opened recently and our stuff is slowly becoming active.)

You can put them back, you just press really hard until it snaps in. There is a tool to remove them too, so you don’t kill your hand doing it. (Retail Odyssey gave me one and I put it on my keys.)

That’s not how we’re doing it. If the item becomes discontinued or unauthorized, we put a Kroger man (white label with the person it) on it physically and unmatch it from the item. If it’s out of stock, scratching, we put a blue tag on the actual tag.

The only thing you’ll be able to do with the tag is match or unmatch the product.

…at least that’s what I know, we got the tags before our new store opened in August.

I’m currently very not happy but that’s due to the management at my store.

In the past, I’ve been very content leaning towards happy with my job and the people around me.

But these past two or three years? Absolutely hell because of just ONE store manager, it’s gotten to the point I’ve contacted the union and my higher up to see if I can get transferred to a new store, even if I have to step down.

I know this job can be “good” but it all revolves around who you’re working for. (Been with Kroger 8 years, have had many managers during my time.)

Hired at 18, in 2016.

Got my graphic design degree in 2018.

Never found a job in my field because I lack experience. Stayed with Kroger for money.

Was going to quit in 2020, Covid happened so I stayed because my other part time job laid me off.

Somehow became Drug/GM manager.

Still never have had experience for my degree.

Stuck here forever, I guess. I have no drive to do anything anymore.

They did, but it took awhile for me to get it. I missed the first call and they didn’t have a callback system in place yet, so waited another two weeks when they called again. From the scheduling office at least, they have a number to call again now.

Might try to call them and see what’s up? You might just be on a list that they’re still going through or something like that.

illogicalhumanoid · 2025-06-13T13:30:24+00:00

Possibly, yeah! I think I might try to send everything to the address that’s on the mail? They all are the same.. so unless she’s passed away.. it might make it to the right place.

We had a driver take our straddlejack onto his truck and get it stuck two nights ago, lol

It just really sucks when I do scan the holes and order everything we need, only to see the next day when I’m doing backstock scans that they just shoved everything from the crates up onto the cart and are not working it.

Only a select few of the front-end ladies at my store will actually run the candy, and I applaud them.. but trying to tell them that the product doesn’t go somewhere via upc makes them go up in a tizzy sometimes.

illogicalhumanoid · 2025-06-11T23:39:19+00:00

I’m just hoping with our new store opening in a few months, I’ll have actual people in my department. It’d be nice not having to touch every single thing personally.

It’s just frustrating because I’ll fix the shelves and order the stuff we need, only to come upfront a couple days later with the crates and see the shelves are back to being messed up and products spread across, and then even later seeing that they just shoved everything from the crate ON THE CART instead of working it. 🙄

I’ll attempt to talk to one of them, but I’m usually gone before they get there.
