    Target's Not Ready for Easter.

    Noticed our supply of Easter candy has sold down a lot in the last week. Didn't notice today even though I walked through that area a few times. Goes clearance on Monday. Can't remember if it starts at 15 or 30, but candy is usually less discounted than the other stuff.

    How can I see what team members created baffles and ghosts in Greenfield?

    Wouldn't that be great? It'd also be great to be able to see who pushes the afternoon and evening pulls so poorly and who does such a bad job with price change. I know there are ways for TLs to know who those TMs are, and I've said something so many times, pointing to multiple specific examples...

    March 24 2024. Stanley Cup Release

    I'm old enough to remember how cool the Sony Walkman was. With little headphones instead of ear buds. On the Stanley topic, I heard two guests talking today about how expensive they were and they were even more expensive online. I agreed with them, that it was really kind of nuts, and one of...

    Who else is having issues with set hours being wrong?

    Getting back to the original question - no, the POG hours are all over the place. My latest favorite example is Electric Toothbrushes. I think it was listed as needing just over 31 hours to do. My eyebrows went way up when I saw that! It definitely did take a while: new backer paper which meant...

    Gen X-Target vs Gen Z-Target

    I miss the Black Mossimo line of women's clothing - a bit higher quality than the other lines. Food Ave was handy for grabbing a quick lunch when I forgot to bring one or was short on time. Not expensive and some of it was pretty tasty although I expect none of it was healthy.

    Do we get paid for Easter?

    I don't know, but you could just pick a different day. Don't think you can go over 40 for the week, although it'd be interesting to find out for sure.

    Can I get into trouble for not reporting a conflict of interest?

    This seems like a good opportunity to just tell the truth if you're asked. Do not say you know nothing about it. Do not lie. If you do lie and it later comes out that you did, THAT will cause some negative blow back for sure. It's always easier to keep your story straight if you tell the truth...

    I was fired for breaking the team member purchase policy. What are the factors that are going to be stopping me from getting rehired?

    I'd call 1 1/2 years semi-long-term, given how many TMs last only a few months. Not long-term though, that's more like 5+ years imo. Here's the thing about good reputations: they take a long time to build and a very short time to destroy. You destroyed yours by acting against clear company...

    Do we get paid for Easter?

    I use my Zebra for it usually, used my laptop once and it all worked. It's a pretty short time frame per my store's HR ETL, with requests having to be in my 10 a.m. on Monday. (Don't know if it's company-wide, or just her.) From the menu, choose "My Requests," then "New Request," then I think...

    I was fired for breaking the team member purchase policy. What are the factors that are going to be stopping me from getting rehired?

    If this were a dating situation, it'd be called stalking. It can be hard to take "no" for an answer, but sometimes that's really the only thing to do.

    Target Credit Union

    My small, neighborhood-based credit union, which I've really liked for quite a few years, was recently acquired by a large, non-neighborhood-based credit union. And I'm not happy about it. I've already received a letter sent to all, I assume, the members of the small C.U. about a mistake made...

    Do we get paid for Easter?

    Or use some of your PTO hours to pad your check to make up the missed hours. That's my plan.

    I was fired for breaking the team member purchase policy. What are the factors that are going to be stopping me from getting rehired?

    I've heard TLs and ETLs at my store tell a former TM "sure, we'd love to have you back again!" when they really meant no such thing. Not saying that's for sure what you're experiencing, but Target leaders seem to be unable to just say some things plainly, especially if they think someone's...

    Sales Floor Why are all the mannequins white?

    Well, they also have no hair. I've seen other, non-Target, stores where all the mannequins are just like ours except black or gold or silver. I think the idea is for the mannequins, bland as they are, to not distract from the clothing on them and for some basic uniformity other than size and...

    Ambient Table March 10.

    Don't have any specific answers for the table you're doing, but I've had some very weird end caps. I end up just setting it in a way that makes sense to me and looks nice, making sure products and labels are matched up.
