Techno. My understanding of that 'position' IS that it
is sorta NOT Kroger, but some contractor? and as such,
it is a dead end. It is some contracted security firm
I believe, not Kroger directly if I understand it
correctly. Just the 'uniform' doesn't say Security on
it, but IT IS LOSS PREVENTION, which IS Security.

Believe me, Kroger nor any food store would hire a
'greeter' just to be friendly!! It is loss prevention
and as such is security and I believe they hire
through a 'dummy' office that is a branch of some
security firm..not sure, but it seems that way.
