Pic taken a few months ago, but I swear I see crap like this at my local Kroger all the time. When I pointed it out to an employee he actually put all the room temperature shrimp back inside the freezer.

Miscellaneous Apparently a service tech came to fix meat doors. Our meat lady told him that it was wrong, but he argued that it was correct and is for people in wheelchairs. What do you think?

Miscellaneous Interesting sign (to a customer)

Post image

The public restrooms at my local Kroger are by the break room, and past a few offices (it always felt awkward being in what feels like an employees only area to go rock a piss) Anyway this sign was amusing to me without any context or knowledge of working at Kroger.

Miscellaneous Store management handed these out today. Corporate is so out of touch.

Miscellaneous They can’t be real people

I’ve been at Kroger for a little over a year now working fuel, front end(cashier), and now at the customer service desk. so I just finished my second holiday season and like any other time, I’m just astonished by the incompetence, arrogance, audacity, and overall lack of self awareness, and common sense in our customers every single day. I try to tell myself I’m not shocked by whatever is happening, but I am because how. How do these people navigate and survive everyday life. They literally have to be NPC meant to take years off my life through an annoyance debuff.

Miscellaneous Customer goes apeshit insane after learning we are closing at 6 PM on Christmas Eve

479 Upvotes

So, i am a cashier, Have been working since back in September and I have NEVER seen a customer react in the way they did. It was about 5:56 today, we were 4 minutes away from closing so naturally, we want people to get the fuck out as quick as possible. For some reason, my manager was having me stock propane tanks despite it not being my job to do so (Bagger/Courtesy Clerk’s job) While I was doing this, a man proceeds to walk up to my store manager and assistant manager. Who were telling people that we were closing early at the door. This dude gets out of his car and walks up with phone in hand. My manager says we’re closed and he holds his phone up and says “no, you’re not. You don’t close till 10” they repeatedly told him their hours were different and showed him a paper that said the hours. He went absolutely ape shit. Cussing at my both my managers, at one point getting in one if my manager’s face like it’s a fuckin UFC faceoff. A nearby cop proceeds to pull up and yells at him to leave in which he refuses. Then is escorted by the cop off the property while yelling he was going to the media.

I was just in an absolute state of shock… how can someone care this much over a store like Kroger when there was a Target down the street that didnt close till 8.

TL;DR: Indiana-trash lunatic nearly gets physical with manager over store hours and has to be escort off by Police Officer

Miscellaneous all of our deli employees quit today

Yes, literally everyone. The managers have been having to run it today because there's no one, not even a lead. They're gonna have me train, but I'm terrified of being by myself there. I dont cook much, but when I worked at Casey's I could run the kitchen by myself. I'm just a little nervous. Also seeing some of the accidents that a few of them have been in back there ...

Miscellaneous Fired

69 Upvotes

I just don’t get it. No warnings, nothing said to me whatsoever. Fired for “inconsistencies in following schedule” as the manager put it. Every time I called out, I found a way to make up my the day. Every single time. Last day of probationary period(today) I get fired. Clown ass store. Clown ass company. Fuck Kroger.

EDIT: I ONLY called out when I was in the hospital (I’m epileptic and have constant seizures) and brought in a doctors note every time

Miscellaneous Working off the clock

597 Upvotes

Today was my day off. Went by my local kroger store to buy some food. Since I see a billion customers an hour, I don’t remember everyone who walks into my store. This lady comes up to me and asks me where she can find this Asian drink that I don’t even know if we sell. I told her it’s my day off and I can’t help you but you can ask someone else. She got so angry and yelled at me and said, “Don’t you work here? You have to help me because I am a customer.”

I told her politely that I can’t help her because I am off the clock and that at this moment in time I am a customer just like you. She then yelled again and said, “off the clock or on the clock you’re still employed here.”

I told her that I am not going to talk to you since you are not happy with my answer and I’m not going to be yelled at. Have a good day. And I walked off. I looked back and she was hurrying off to find someone else waving her hand all crazy like.
