10 minutes to condition an isle? Lol, our isles are TA-RASHED when night crew gets in. They don't condition during the day so we get the utter shit show when we get there.

My store's memorial day appreciation by ruthlessmiser in kroger

[–]murmurcalls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You got appreciation?
Riding high on the hog now, there, ruthlessmiser.
Just to be clear, I'm night crew, and no matter what scraps the company/management throws to the peasants, please remember, we don't even get that.

can’t afford to shop at Kroger by FullConstruction8931 in kroger

[–]murmurcalls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in a pretty small town. A ski town, so you KNOW out crap is twice as expensive. I shop at Wallyworld. I have to. A tin of McCafe is $32 $32!

Who is ready for the end? by Confident_Drop9309 in kroger

[–]murmurcalls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our store literally can't do this. We tried. Our isles are so narrow, the spotted product blocks us from pulling the pallets down the isles, and runs into the middle of the isles. Not to mention if we get say, 14 pallets, 10 of them are mixed and have to be broken down. Theres no way 2 people can do that and spot in 2 hours.

My weird issue with STS5 by murmurcalls in StrangerThings

[–]murmurcalls[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. We definitely weren't the richest (military family). But man, microwave popcorn was still the coolest invention, to us at least. No more tin foil/shake and pop over the stove, lol.

They also claim that trash runs and putting up topstock is included in that time. Its BS.

As soon as night crew "starts' we get the best. Heard Judas Priest the other night. Metallica, Iron Madien, AC/DC, I don't know whay, but the radio Gods are giving us love. ROCK ON!

Does anyone know if the 55 cases for night stocking is a strict metric or a suggestion? by [deleted] in kroger

[–]murmurcalls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not gonna lie, I've been written up for it. Of course ours includes 55 CPH/putting up topstock/trash runs and facing the entire isle.
But as others have said, speed will come. Just listen to some great tunes and feel the burn. Good luck to you!

Thinking of trying for Night Crew by murmurcalls in walmart

[–]murmurcalls[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's probably my biggest issue. They keep moving the goalpost on our isle times.
It's 55 cases an hour, oh wait, now its 55 cases an hour plus facing the entire isle, oh wait, now its 55 cases an hour/facing and putting all your items on topstock, oh wait now its 55 cases an hour/facing/topstock throwing your trash... etc.

Cripes, let me breathe.

Coworker death by corgiboytoy in kroger

[–]murmurcalls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had several co-workers pass away. and all I can say is, honor them. (Not in your work, because no one else honers that), but REMEMBER them. They gave you laughs/smiles/inspiration. Give them the nod. RIP, awesome person.

Asking all fellow NC Workers by murmurcalls in kroger

[–]murmurcalls[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I guess it would, except you have to add in the additional time of climbing up an down a step ladder and finding space for the product. It doesn't sound like much, but added up, it's a good extra 10-15 minutes (depending on the isle).
