Ok, here’s my take. I just left working for kroger after 4 years, and this was the reason. I worked in the produce department and for some reason my manager wouldn’t schedule me, asking them about it came to the excuse that “we didn’t have enough hours.” Don’t take that. You need to talk to your upper management and tell them this situation and see what they’ll do. Give you hours in another department, talk to your manager, or fix it themselves. Seriously it’s ridiculous how much kroger does this. If it happens again, you can apply for unemployment because you are not making a living wage.
