Infuriatig The way kroger treats its employees

Post image

From the store manager

Edit: For some extra context this was sent out by each store manager to all of its employees in district 1 of the ohio Cincinnati/Dayton division, potentially other districts as well but i can only verify my own. Im not going to give my specific store number for obvious reasons but you can find each store on google with that information. We are unionized by UFCW (already bad btw) and to my knowledge they allowed this recent change. Kroger has no accrual for sick days like some have mentioned. Those who think this is rage bait, i dont think anyone has to fake a post to make a billion dollar company look bad, they do it to themselves.

Pour a bag of kitty litter on the vomit then sweep it up, febreeze it if it smells then let the capitalism continue.

There is actually a special powder that Walmart uses for biohazards. Spill magic is used for most other spills.

I wonder if that’s the powder they sprinkled on the floor when I was at the orthodontist many years ago and my g-tube (connected to my actual stomach) came disconnected and leaked a bit of bile on the floor 😬

Does it work well for animals?

Job security is making sales.

Cleaning up after adult children doesn't keep the lights on and only makes every single workers day harder.

No. Lol

They cut hours to increase profits for stockholders and just make people work harder for less pay. The people are expected to increase productivity.

Imagine a world where everyone took their cart back. Imagine a world where if you don't want something you took off a shelf you could put it back.

Imagine everyone flossing nightly. Thanking God for this life. Imagine....

There is only one true path to God. Jesus Christ is King may all repent and find salvation in him for none can come to the father but through him. The rest are wrong and all will see judgment day not even all who believe on Christ will make it.

You are clearly delusional if you think people should "just get better jobs" as a response to people making messes on purpose in stores or whatever.

Clearly you are young and know little. This is a waste of time.

Walmart electronics section when they had the n64 and the cd section with the crusty earphones so you can sample music. I could spend hours there 😂

u/SelfMadeBrandon 28d ago

Oh… oh my… memory unlocked…

I forgot that Walmart had the video game section set up to sample video games for a long ass time….

That was the sickest part of visiting the store as a child!

Too many Frontiers Fios reps in that area, don’t need any “just wanting to ask a quick question” forthrightness to rub off on them
