THIS is it. If you work for Target and haven't read the WAJ article on Andrew Poole, Google it. Yes, saving on fees,selling credit lines, paying for Canada, etc. is part of it. But stroll through some of the sharepoint archives on data mining and statistics and the value of collecting customer...

I refuse to let HR schedule shifts for 5.75 hours just to avoid paying for lunch. Half my TMs have second jobs and I get a lot of positive feedback on ensuring they get that 30 meal as it may be the only one they get for 2 shifts unless they eat in transit.

Can you PM me on where you heard this? I am very active in protecting TMs from Corp and would love a jumping off point to research this further. I usually get a lot of direct HR stuff from someone at Corp but I haven't heard this one roll out yet. It would be a great benefit to me and many...

There is a recent thread on coaching and CAs for Red Cards that may clear some worries up. I am waiting for someone to get termed for that as I have some Law School buddies who would love to talk to them. Commie is right. Do well and don't screw up more than 3-5 times in a 30 day period and...

Do Best Practice the Best you can. I hear this almost every day.

I don't disagree with you at all Rarejem. A little more background just to clarify: - We were on something called a "Perpetual Inventory Test" for the past three years. I have never shot an OUT or had an actual IS Team in that time. Back when we had a Pricing TL separate from our Presentation...

So I decided to test run Instocks today. I had my 3 backroom TMs who normally pull autos and push them on Tuesday/Thursdays start at 9am and for the first time in years, we did use the task list. Before today, we had to do SA RSCH between 5-6a on M/W/F and I shot electronics on my own on...

I had to put together the schedule last week for BR/IS starting next Monday when we go live with this 7:30a unload. I have all of my BR TMs cross training to IS and will come in on Tuesday/Thursdays at 7a to doe SA RSCH until 12p. 5 on Tuesday to do HL and 4 on Thursday for softlines. We will...

Did have a new hire say she could not come to orientation, as it conflicted with her schedule at her other job (Walmart). Can't work at Target and one of our main competitors. Field Partners would crap a brick if they caught wind of this...

A few points: 1) Login to eHR, go to mypay, and select "view my schedule" or whatever the button on the bottom left is. This will show you all your punches for each day. Yes, I know it will reflect any changed punches but it is a start. Be visible, as in, ask some questions after printing it...

3 hours minimum is company policy. MAX won't schedule under 3 hours in 24 hours unless it's tacked on to additional hours in another work center. I would bring it up to HR in case they made a mistake.

We just lost our STL of 10 years who was also never an ETL. He was a direct hire from another much smaller corp. He was the best leader I have met at Target but unfortunately Target squeezed his nuts too much and he went back for half the pay.

I understand the intended point of Smart Huddles. But with the rise of the TM Alignment and the Vibe communication, I don't really push the recognition and communication part of the Huddle. I had a very wise veteran ETL suggest 2 minutes max for the talking points and only if it was something...

So I my supported this last Sunday and the response said that once a sign is scanned out OR NOt Found on a Saturday night, it is considered dead and will not drop into a future price audit. There is an admitted glitch with this when a DPCI has both a TPC and a sale/as advertised/New at...

Ah. I left the SF a few months ago before the new PCV thingy rolled out and didn't know this. I consider myself schooled. But now I wonder how my store is handling this as I haven't heard anyone mention a new way of scanning down sign. I will have to investigate tomorrow. By the way, I have...
