Maybe the employees should sue Kroger for practicing medicine without a license.

The Krogers near me are Unionized
I can’t imagine the union standing still for this.

Kroger is passing that $50 on to its customers by cutting their prices, right?

Apparently, if what was mentioned on the radio this morning is true, the surcharge only applies to non-union employees...

last i checked, unions caused much of the lockdown\masking hysteria, according to emails between school unions and fauci.
point is, unions don’t offer the protection that they should.

The article indicated that surcharge would be on salaried workers and management. Kroger is Unionized and that will not apply to them.

Only $50? I would imagine the Big Guy’s take would have to be around 100%, right?!

Kroger management must be seriously low-info if they're doing this when millions more are discovering every day what an absolute disaster these "vaccines" are.
