Well, we have over 400K people working here at Kroger, so you'll have layoffs all the time. We close stores, we open them, be buy them and we sell them. The whole point for Kroger is that we need to stay on our toes, need to constantly change and let people go if needed. That's how you stay vital and able to respond to market changes. Look at what's happening with some of the competitors, we for sure do not want to end up in biting the dust.

Kroger likes to destroy the lives of the long-term, dedicated, middle aged women. As soon as you get up there a little bit they slit your throat.
To do it all over again...I would definitely go work for a different company.
We'll keep doing things at the same pace, Kroger likes conservative approaches.
