I just gave HR my two weeks notice. I decided to make it a short note thanking them for everything and telling them I would miss them. My first draft was a little different: Dear Target pricks, When I first came to this company, it was a different place. The workload wasn't nearly as...

I'm really curious about what goes on in a typical day working as a TPS or ETL-AP. So for the TMs on this board that work AP, I have some questions. What does your typical day consist of? Would you say your work is fast paced or is it more slow and monotonous? How often do you witness guests...

I pick up cashier shifts every now and then, once or twice a week. Now I know that the GSAs are under an insane amount of pressure to sell redcards and that they're important to store metrics and whatnot. But at some point between starting here and not loving it here, I completely ran out of...

I will go through great lengths to avoid drama. I don't share my negative opinions of TMs with other TMs (I have my friends and the break room for that). And I try my best to be respectful and professional with everyone. For a long time, this seemed to be working fine. But recently, several...

This must be the time of year where TLs ask for your feedback, because within the past two weeks I've had a GSTL, a TL and an ETL ask for my opinions on the store and write down my responses. The problem is that they ask me questions like: "What can we do to improve the store?" and "What...

I've started my job search and I've narrowed it down to about 5 options. Nothing left to do now but send out applications... but I haven't done that yet because I just can't decide how to change my availability. I can't decide if I want to work at Target for a few days or if I should just quit...

I don't remember Target having so many empty shelves. It seems like it's gotten much worse over these past couple of months. Does anyone know if there's a specific reason it's so bad this year, or has it always been this bad? Maybe it's just my store?

I've been talking to my fellow TMs, and so far every one I've talked to seems to really dread their job. It must be the holiday season getting to them, but A LOT of people have told me they can't wait to quit, and I'm starting to think it might just be the norm for the store in general. Do you...

I know it's common for businesses to sweep instances of sexual harassment under the rug, but people are also slow to report it when they witness it. I've already seen a few instances that I'd call questionable and one pretty bold one that was done by a TM to a TL. He was saying a couple of...

I have an opinion about all this Frozen merchandise that I need to get off my chest.... I would like to track down the sick, sadistic motherfucker who thought it would be a good idea to play samples from the Frozen soundtrack on constant loop in the electronics section. Whoever you are, I hope...

I know a fellow TM who is very buddy buddy with one of the ETLs. The thing is that I think this makes it more likely that they'll guilt you into taking extra shifts, as they've done with this TM already. It probably depends on the store, but I think in general it's a good idea to keep your...

I've only been with the store since October, but I will NOT under any circumstances work on Christmas eve. I'll try and swap shifts with someone, but won't it just be easier to say I don't want to work for religious reasons? Or would that actually make things more complicated? ---------------...

Hi, I'm new to the forum and the store. I've been working for about two weeks and I don't feel like I got sufficient training, plus the LODs just seem to get less and less friendly every time I come in. Still, I plan on keeping this job for at least 6 months, so please tell me it gets easier!
