Kroger CEO a Trump supporter edit

Kroger CEO Rodney McMullen – a Trump confidant. Ken Seyfried says McMullen, who took over as CEO in 2014, changed the work culture at Kroger. A culture change that’s given Kroger corporate and its shareholders billions in profits. 2603:6010:B806:5EF2:2DAD:97EF:7BFA:9236 (talk) 08:55, 17 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

What Ken Seyfried’s son, Evan, knew is that Rodney McMullen fostered and cultivated a VERY pro-trump culture within Kroger and its divisions. Management at store level, district staff level, and corporate office level were all very vocal and unabashed in their support of Trump. In sales calls and department manager meetings you could guarantee one member of corporate or management singing the disgraced former President’s praises. Even though every employee handbook across all divisions prohibits any outwardly spoken political views in their stores, the employees understand for management and above its “rules for thee, but not for me”.
McMullen is culpable in the wrongful death of Evan Seyfried, since he gave the green light for his corporate lackeys and stooges to express their political views as frequently and vulgarly as possible. 71.222.89.127 (talk) 02:51, 28 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

This is true, but I keep getting my edits removed. Today I found out it's not common knowledge that Rodney McMullen is an ardent supporter of the Indiana Oath Keepers, allowed them to hold fundraising drives outside of Kroger stores in 2019 and 2020, and used customer directed funds as part of the bankroll for the January 6th insurrection. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8801:11C:5A00:7591:495B:B3C6:2424 (talk) 20:32, 28 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Your edits were reverted because they don't adhere to Wikipedia's policies about neutrality, reliable sources, and biography of living persons. The mytotalretail source does not support McMullen being an "avid supporter" of Trump, and implying that he is still a supporter post indictments/impeachments with a source from before those events is not appropriate. It could be used to support saying that he thought a Trump presidency would be good for business, but that's all. The Twitter source is useless. Self-published sources like Twitter are never acceptable for content about a third party. Emotive wording like "rabid support" has no place here, nor does unsourced speculation about funding January 6. If he does support the Oath Keepers it may be worth including, but only if it's supported by reliable sources. Squeakachu (talk) 21:03, 28 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Kroger store operations management edit

hello, my name is Nathan Thornsbury. I was born and raised in Ashland ky. I know this will not go anywhere but I feel compelled to tell you about the way one of your Kroger stores is being operated. I have over 30 yrs experience in business operations. I been running businesses all my life. I hired in at the Ashland ky store in the bakery. I have never seen a business run more poorly in my life. Missing inventory, not making cakes and full production out of the bakery. No one communicated from department to department. It's like there is 6 different businesses and no one works together. I bet anything I could go in for 6 monyand I guarantee I could increase gross profit by 25 percent and maybe more. You have a major breakdown in your management structure. The store manager just quit or fired. By making sure we have the shelves full at all times and make sure that the bakery is getting all baked goods. I seen a girl cook chicken at 6pm and set it out. You know good and well that chicken is not going to be sold and we have to mark it down and sell a product that is not fresh. If this store is like this you know damn well there are more stores like this one. You have a ok business but you could have an awesome business. Man what I could do. I hope this makes it to you Mr. Mcmullin. Wnthornsbury (talk) 02:47, 4 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Lmfao, you really think Rodney McCuntface actually cares about what goes on store level? He notoriously hates all Kroger employees and couldn't care less if one is struggling or thriving, it's all the same to him. Did you know he supports the Indiana Oath Keepers and had a hand in the wrongful death (suicide) of a Columbus, OH worker? 2600:8801:11C:5A00:987E:7971:A33B:47A4 (talk) 03:58, 10 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
Evan Seyfried was from Milford, OH, not Columbus. All Day Anon (talk) 22:14, 28 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
