    More Team Leader positions?!

    I've read this thread several times 😁 Lots of good information and I didn't look like an idiot with my first unload (although my team may say different) This is how I know allnew2 is the person to go to for advice. She definitely knows her shit!

    More Team Leader positions?!

    Unfortunately we can't throw 2 trucks at once because we don't have enough skates. We are struggling as far as getting enough TMs but we are finally getting some interest so hopefully we can build the team over the next six weeks. I have 3 throwers total but one is on vacation for the next 2...

    More Team Leader positions?!

    As the former closing TL I'm used to owning the whole store. My inbound team will definitely be pushing the store but no other DBO routines. Its going to be interesting as I have multiple DBOs moving to my team. Also, there's been some tension between the TLs that own p1 and p2 over who's side...

    To that one Team Member - II

    TTOTM: I'm so glad you approached me and bitched about the truck sort 2 days before you join our overnight unload. Can't wait to audit your sorted uboats!

    More Team Leader positions?!

    My store is starting overnight inbound for six months. I'm the overnight inbound TL. I will only own the truck, no areas of the store. Our early morning inbound TL will still own essentials (hba, pets, paper, chem, baby). The goal is to take 12 trucks a week and come clean on truck push by the...

    Returning to Normal Hours

    God, I hope not. Pre Covid we were open 8am to 11pm Monday thru Saturday and 8am to 10pm Sunday. Now we're open 7am to 10pm everyday. If you can't get it in the 15 hours we're open, order online!

    How long can one work in one day?

    I've worked 15, 19 and 23 hour shifts before. Of course always with permission. There are limits for minor in my state but no limits for anyone over 18 and not in highschool. 15 hour days aren't too bad but anything over can be rough.

    TL/PG45 Base Pay Increase

    Our store is going to $22.50, another larger store near us is less. My SD said it's store by store and we are at a mall that appears to be paying a premium for "assistant manager".

    Will Target lift the mask requirement?

    My state is lifting their mask mandate right before I come back from vacation. I'm currently visiting family in a southern state that no longer has a mask mandate. I am fully vaccinated but I still wear my mask when I enter stores and restaurants. I have no idea what other people may have i.e...

    Closing Team Lead

    When I PDD a TM I email to the TL(s), their ETL and CC the HR ETL and SD. I then follow up with the TL(s) or ETL. If it hasn't been entered into Workday, I follow up with either the HR ETL or SD so it gets done. It ends up being alot of following up which is time consuming and irritating...

    Who recently quit at your store?

    I'm over 50 and a TL but you are right on the money about ageism. I took my current position, Closing Leader, 2 years ago with the goal of moving up to ETL. Meanwhile every 20 something TL has a mentor and all that. I'm over here just dealing with all the bullshit that comes with running a store...

    Announcing a new TL.

    Luckily most people know me as I've been at my store for years. I always introduce myself to new TMs so they know who I am and my position at the store. We've had several new in role and external hire TLs recently, and other areas of the store had no idea who they were. I try to tell all new...

    Advanced Professional Training

    I downloaded the app and I'm using it "off the clock" to help myself develop. I want to be an ETL and eventually a SD but these courses can also translate to other jobs so if Target is offering free training, I will definitely take advantage.

    COVID-19 Vaccine Pay

    Download CirrusMD app and enter your information. When contacting a Dr be sure to include the state you live in as some states have different doctors. It was super easy and I had my answer to a possible close contact situation within a few minutes. The doctors notes were saved so I was able to...
