    Archived Target Treating TMs Like Walmart Does

    I know that they don't have to offer a discount. It's the way they manipulate employees into getting a financial product that is distasteful to me.

    I'm a new fitting room operator (and new to Target). Have to say I am shocked at the rudeness of the Softlines TMs to each other and to me. I have only had three shifts so far, but already I have heard two of them talking behind the back of a third one. The team lead is very curt and tells me...
