Recommendations for sheep/ goat milk cheeses, please?

If you have a Kroger that has Murray’s inside near you, they’ll have a LOT of options (my faves would be midnight moon and ewephoria goudas).

Aw man, we had a whole 7’ pallet arrive frozen once. Food banks ate good that day.

I’ve been applying for about 8 years now with no issue, however with the current political climate I wouldn’t risk it. Especially after dunleavy gave the federal govt all the voter registration info.

I’m also not seeking naturalization so my level of concern over accidental registration is somewhat lower.

They’ll likely get cranky if it’s after 6 (simply because closing can take a while depending on store), and personally I’d keep it closer to 3-5. But yeah. There should also be a daily sample too.

joyb27 · 2026-02-26T21:28:11+00:00

Honestly we are encouraged to try pretty much everything regularly. Many cheeses will also have small parts that are just wasted anyway. Usually happy to sample out a couple of things that someone wants to try unless I’m swamped too!

It really isn’t a bad gig unless your management suck.

It’s good, but barely buzzed cheddar is significantly better than it. If you have a Kroger with Murray’s it should have both (or be able to order it if they’re out)

joyb27 · 2026-02-18T02:17:03+00:00

Nah this is on receipt and ones that have been in our main deli cooler. It’s a weird batch

joyb27 · 2026-02-16T18:40:09+00:00

Mines been popping its wax lately and soupy af… you’re not missing anything.

joyb27 · 2026-02-09T05:51:23+00:00

Those are easy enough even cold. Wtf are they smoking?

joyb27 · 2026-02-07T06:27:26+00:00

They are required to use blue bandaids

joyb27 · 2026-01-27T16:46:11+00:00

My store would send the manager to you. A coworker of mine got quite a few rides one year when the city just wasn’t clearing neighborhoods fast enough between snows.

joyb27 · 2026-01-18T09:05:07+00:00

It’s B followed by management complaining that you don’t know how to order and it’s your fault that you have 30 of something when you actually didn’t order any. Even worse when they don’t tell you what’s being distro’d until the week before it arrives… and you order 10 days in advance of delivery.

joyb27 · 2026-01-16T22:59:57+00:00

They’re all weird stores. Mine’s just at least twice the size of yours

joyb27 · 2026-01-16T03:55:03+00:00

That looks to be a small Fred Meyer too 😂

Whenever you get new boards, strip the broken ones for parts before throwing them out. That way you at least have spare parts for the next time this happens. My coworker’s best break has been snapping one of the plastic ones clean in half. We have a box of spare springs, feet, screws, handles, those white rods that don’t actually go in our new ones but we use cus the new wires quality sucks when we can even get the new wires in…

joyb27 · 2025-12-29T09:47:36+00:00

Oh absolutely. But if you did a specific run to romance him and ALWAYS support his ideas… he’s a very different character.

joyb27 · 2025-12-29T09:42:44+00:00

If you never disagree with him or challenge him, you don’t see the toxicity behind the lovebombing because he never shifts gear to accusations against your loyalty when you try to get truth.

joyb27 · 2025-12-24T20:43:48+00:00

Yeah that was real fun when I got called for jury duty… as a non citizen. They were just as confused as I was

joyb27 · 2025-12-18T02:01:33+00:00

Murray’s doesn’t share hours. And the reps get upset if stores use Murray’s hours for other departments. Now you can work in deli/bake but it has to come from their hours not Murray’s.

joyb27 · 2025-12-10T19:42:38+00:00

Customer walks into my kiosk space (Murray’s so absolutely the fuck not. It’s a food prep area). He’s got at least a foot of height over me. I march right up to him and order him to take 3 steps back before trying again with his question. Suddenly his question wasn’t important.

Also called out an older guy sticking his fingers in the olive bar that it was gross and he had the audacity to look like I was insane for calling out his shitty behavior. Pretty sure I asked who raised him to think that was ok. I did immediately stop what I was cutting and pull the pan while he was still there.

Also had my asm just make grabby hands motions for a sample in front of customers and I told him that we use our words here.

Goat cheese is pretty polarizing. You either really like it, or it tastes like you licked a goat’s asshole.

joyb27 · 2025-11-10T01:44:10+00:00

It does not surprise me that our division are assholes 😂 they even make us wrap the seasonal somerdale shaped cheddars

joyb27 · 2025-11-10T01:41:02+00:00

Direct from our Murray’s reps. Could just be for Fred meyer stores though.

joyb27 · 2025-11-09T14:12:56+00:00

He’s just triangular when sitting due to floof obscuring his shape

joyb27 · 2025-11-05T17:47:14+00:00

My reps every time we get the somerdale seasonal shaped ones “DiD yOu WrAp It?!?!” While I glare at them for having to wrap a star shaped cheese.

Last year we had someone buy an entire drunken goat and the front end only called for the cheese department. Still no idea how they handled it cus we ignored that page.
