    Archived How does one become a STL?

    Don't get too caught up in people making more money. Just ask "what did he/she do differently?" Sometimes the answer is as simple as putting an application in or how the person applied (i.e. Apply online at the district level vs going to a store and applying for ETL). I've seen several qualified...

    Archived How does one become a STL?

    My STL was younger than me, I was 27 at the time and she was already the STL at another store for 2 years. I've seen people become STL after one 18 month ETL rotation. These were all successful LOGs. I was prepped for the STL interviews at 12 months - then I told them I was leaving.

    Archived Had a phone interview yesterday..

    I know using "email" is code for you didn't make it. For example, I would say "thank you for your time, we are interviewing more applicants so check your email for further information." If you were hired I would say so right away - pending drug test results. But I was an ETL so I was the final...

    Archived Unorganized ETLs and Other Complaints

    A lot of goals are based off the best performing store in the group. They figure if they can do it so can the other stores. So if RedCard numbers are high, that's because another store is reaching that goal and they expect the same results from other stores - without taking common sense into...

    Archived Unorganized ETLs and Other Complaints

    If you think your leadership is bad then imagine the demands they get from their leadership. ETLs don't make up RedCard goals. This is how Target works - TM is pushed by TL, TL is pushed by ETLs, ETLs are pushed by STL, STL is pushed by DTL, DTL is pushed by GroupVp, group vp is pushed by...

    Archived What are the worst and best ideas in the last 5 years at Target?

    @anonymousflowmember - that bike was a waste of space. Ours looked like they were put together by a 1st grader. I think we sold 1.

    Archived What are the worst and best ideas in the last 5 years at Target?

    Worst: Target Ticket, pfresh, early morning logistics for 50million stores, Pizza Hut, VIBE, and open Thanksgiving day . Best: Cartwheel, myDevices, RedCard benefits.

    @mrknownothing - there it is! This sign is perfect. I love the half man half woman. Maybe someday I can take a shit next to a beautiful woman and she'll sink my battle ship.

    Archived Restrooms

    Maybe someday we won't have gender specific bathrooms. We have men becoming women, women becoming men, people with tits and a penis, etc. Someday the bathroom sign will just say "Fuck it, we give up - this is a room to put shit and piss in - don't look at your neighbor and enter at own risk."...

    Archived Almost a year into role as ETL-HR and....

    Well you can look at it like this: continue working your ass off or get an HR job somewhere else making the same pay and working less hours. That's what our HR and STL did.

    Archived Restrooms

    No backroom bathroom? Can you use the other guest bathrooms? They probably could write you up for not following instructions but using a bathroom is not worthy of such harsh action. If I have to shit and the stalls are taken, you can bet I'd be in the family bathroom. Or you could just shit on...

    Archived How do you pick up shifts?

    No - a position doesn't have to be open and becoming more global benefits both the store and the TM. So that's a weird response from HR. It doesn't take long to train for SF. You could have your own ETL train you, ask another ETL, or another TL if you can get some hours. Or sign up for a swap...

    Archived "Girl" Talk

    Not about the color, more about the material. I was referring to the typical khaki material that isn't breathable and the sweat just sits there and stews. As an ETL I wore dress pants but as a TM I had khaki(cotton) pants that didn't breathe.

    Archived "Girl" Talk

    My wife asks me all the time ( silently) if there is blood on her butt. Never is but I'd hate to wear khaki and it happens. I thought khakis didn't give much breathing for my boys. There were days when my balls were so sore that I had to dip them in butt butter. So all around Khakis suck -...

    Archived How do you pick up shifts?

    You could either continue working after you're done with flow or go home, nap, then come back in the evening for a closing shift. I've seen TLs, TMs, and ETLs do the dreaded Clopen ( leave at 12am or 1am and return at 7 am). I had SF TMs take Flow shifts all the time. No reason you can't take...

    Archived How do you pick up shifts?

    Are you looking to work more than 12 hours in a shift? Ask about the 8 hour buffer for those that Clopen. I think a buffer applies if you work over 12 hours in a single shift. I had TMs that worked overnight flow and dayside soft lines then back to flow the next night. It was only a few TMs...

    Archived How long are Flow Teams supposed to work? I know A.S.A.N.T.S but still I need to know .

    I don't think it will be posted. I would put you at A+ or AA volume ($45-60million) but it's hard to say without knowing sales. Check the goal sales and see if it's over $125K for the day. Ask a TL or ETL, they should always know their volume.

    Archived Has anyone managed to get out being a truck unloader?

    @SFSFun - yes we did - and it was known to break down. The worst case was when the freight elevator was broken and the conveyor was broken at the same time. Some stores have more sophisticated conveyors that can take pallets up - ours was limited to certain box sizes. Also some stores have...

    Archived How long are Flow Teams supposed to work? I know A.S.A.N.T.S but still I need to know .

    This is correct - store fact sheet in workbench/ pull types. Store volume is evaluated each AE and is subject to change. You can also guesstimate based on number of trucks.

    Archived Pulling items

    Agree - only back room certified TMs should pull items. Although 12 years ago I pulled my own items all the time as a SF TM - that's when quantities weren't tracked in the backroom. It's not hard to pull just gotta know the right steps so you don't mess up location accuracy. Just don't show up...
