Kroger enacts sweeping plan to promote diversity and inclusion
Supermarket News ^ | Oct. 26, 2020

Among efforts to create a more inclusive culture, Kroger aims to form a DE&I Advisory Council to advance our long-term diversity, equity and inclusion commitments. The committee will report to senior leadership and be led by Monica Garnes, retail division president. The council also will partner with senior leaders and longstanding associate resource and advocacy groups — representing Black, Latinx, Asian, LGBTQ, and physically and intellectually disabled associates, plus veterans, women, parents, and Millennials — to spur organizational change, Kroger said.

“Latinx”?

If the subject matter itself wasn’t evidence you were dealing with a nutcase - that certainly seals the deal. It is very disrespectful to Hispanic culture and to their very language to do that. So much for “diversity.”

They aren’t for “diversity” they are for a Leftist agenda. Stray from the narrow lines of Leftism, and you are “nondiverse.”

Get wok, go broke. I give it 5 years before they start seeing the results of serious institutional decline. There is nothing less inclusive and diverse than “diversity and inclusion” programs.

Gee, how bout dat.

In the meantime, the local Krogers in Salem VA has mischarged items on the last 4 shopping trips.

That diversity is working wonders already :/

Works if one is a woman, black, Asian, etc. Not so much for man or white. I suppose “parent” references those with young children. Seems as if it is the usual: white males need not apply.

They forgot the opinions of regular white men. Don’t they count for diversity?

They’re minimum wage grocery clerks.

I worked in that industry for a decade. You take what
you can get. If you spend one moment worrying about
what gender or color anyone is you’re crazy.

“Drug-free”, “not a thief” and “shows up for work on-time” are your only criteria.

Will they include people that are fed up with this 🐴💩? Probably not.

Back in the ‘70s - ‘80s my mother would not shop at Kroger because she said, “They were the first (Nashville, Tennessee) to start staying open on Sundays.” So they were even liberal back then.

Since they’re all woke, just buy your food at Walmart and save money.

‘representing Black, Latinx, Asian, LGBTQ, and physically and intellectually disabled associates, plus veterans”

As a military retiree there is nothing that I appreciate more than being included in this group. I mean, all the groups listed are equal, right? To these people, a homosexual has the same moral equivalency as a person who served 20 years in the military.

Who looks like a nuclear explosion in a Brillo factory complete with mushroom cloud.
