    Archived Those prompts went over well today.... Not.

    I've been getting mixed messages with asking at prompts only or asking everyone. It didn't seem like anyone was really mad or angered at us asking again. They all just said "uhh, no thank that's okay", a few were a tad confused with it. Although lots of people still ask "is it safe to use my...

    Archived Work Related Injury?

    Hello fellow Target Team Members I am a cashier and I work 5 days a week usually for 8 hours a day. And I've noticed in the past couple months that my left shoulder has been aching after work and then more recently it's been troubling me more and more with the usual bagging and lifting items...

    Archived Halloween Costumes

    Our costume section was very strange this year too. Very few masks, adult costumes, and accessories. Mostly just children costumes and then decorations. Last night was insanity, only two cashiers scheduled, no one around for back up because we were having a party going on in our old garden...

    I'm Lost! The Call In/Sick/Late/NCNS/Attendance Thread

    Hello fellow Target TMs. I was wondering what number do you call for a callout? Is there an 800 number or do you just call your store's number. My shift is scheduled at 8am and I need to know soon. Much thanks!

    Archived Getting Called In

    I put full availability on my application when I was hired months ago, but lately I got called in everyday to either come in early or on my day off. I only live about 10 miles away but I have to get rides to and from work from friends since our bus system goes no where near the store and it's...

    Archived Calling me in on the daily??

    Lately I've been getting called into work almost every single day for the past week or two to come in either early for my shift, stay later on my shift, or to come in on my day off. Sometimes I say yes, but most of the time no because I do a lot of other things outside of my work schedule. Not...

    Archived New Bag Material?

    Hahaha. These bags are pretty bad lately. I am having to throw out hundreds of bags that are tearing in half when I pull away another bag. Also it seems that they don't hold as much as they used to without breaking through or getting holes in them. Then there are people trying to "save a bag"...

    Archived Ouch?

    Oh wow. No kidding? Only bout 25 cents. I can understand the occasional crabbiness with that position a bit more now

    Archived Ouch?

    Haha sounds good to me. I mean if I get some redcards and keep cool things will lighten up. I mean hey, i could even like her if I got to know her off the clock. Irritating stuff is bound to happen, but you're right. Things are in tiers here and it can cause a chain reaction. Best to just let it...

    Archived Ouch?

    That is true! Indeed she is a GSA not a GSTL or an LOD. She did come up to me after taking a peek at the little clipboard and saw I had none and then proceeded to tell me that I have been having a drought of redcards and that when they hired me they expect much more out me. I don't know what her...

    Archived Ouch?

    Don't be too worried. From what I heard, every store is different. I live in a smaller town with mostly retired and older people and on top of that we have about 3 different Targets including 1 superTarget within 10 miles of another, so we're eventually going to hit a saturation point of how...

    Archived Couple questions for a new team member

    I actually asked other team members about being offered things today too and for some reason they are very relaxed about it as long as it isn't tips or expensive products obviously, but little food...no problem. They just get mad about not getting redcards. lol, not quite sure if I'd feel...

    Archived Couple questions for a new team member

    Yeah, I let the GSTL know today and she just kind of shrugged it off and said eat it...we'd have to get rid of it anyways if it's been paid for. So that's good...I hope. They are way too laid back at my store. I even spoke with the girl who is AP about it and she giggled saying I was fine. I've...

    Archived Ouch?

    Back from work...and I just got chewed out about the redcards. Been working for a month and I have total of about 20 something+ redcards since I've started. But this week I have been on a dry streak with only 2. And before I was knocking it out of the park, getting the most out of anyone and...
