    Archived New HRTL

    The differences are slight on paper per core roles but in my experience they were the same. The HR core four focuses when I was HR SDTL were (1) retention, (2) development, (3) staffing and (4) brand. This leader should spin his/her time focusing on staffing (hiring) and development (training)...

    Archived New HRTL

    I use to be both a Human Resources TL and a HR Staffing & Development TL (now phased out I believe). The role will vary from store to store. You will be doing the same kind of work as that of a HRTM as well as that of your ETL-HR depending on what things they delegate to you. You will most...

    Archived Black friday hours

    Standing in line I will not. I refuse to be a part of the madness at Target or any other store. And my current, post Target job is awesome. I am as excited and enthusiastic about this job as I once was during my 10 year tenure with the bullseye

    Archived Holding employees after clock out?

    I would always let my team out...do a final lap of the store with the closing TL(s) and then we would all sit and do email...me to the LOD and TL staff and the TL(s) to their peers and/or ETLs and then we all walked out together. I often forgot though to drive around the building and check the...

    Very Important!!!! Locking Store

    Your store had you wait 90 days before closing by yourself as LOD. My first day on the floor back "training" a term I use loosely, I closed by myself. Every other LOD was gone by 5 and the STL was on vacation.Luckily for me I had watched the LODs enough in the past to be able to effectively...

    Archived Being Scheduled Outside of Pay Grade?

    GSA is NOT a 40 hour every week position like TLs. Even some TLs are not 40 hours/week. Both of these are store dependant. GSA was never meant to be a 40 hour/week job but I do understand that it does happen.

    Archived Lets say I lost my keys...

    As a former Sr. TL, I was paranoid about having store keys. There was one time I was the opening LOD and I stopped to talk to a SL team member while heading back to receiving, came back out to respond to a call and realized I did not have my keys...I turned pale and my heart rate jumped and I...

    Archived Codes over the walkie

    ^varies by store...in my experience, the person who called the code yellow Washington generally.the person who cancelled it upon verification by parent/guardian that the right child was located. As a former LOD this was how things were and never once was there an issue.

    Archived Equipment Control

    When I worked at Target, we had a locked room in TSC for the equipment. Later moved all equipment to the room right there by the Fitting Room attendant desk for the attendant to distribute equipment. It was then moved to a locked cabinet on the backside of Guest Service where only LODs were...
