    Calling off during the 90 day period, what can I expect?

    How likely they are to actually fire you is going to be directly tied to how desperate they are for help. Keep working as long as you can, no point in ghosting them if you still do actually want to work. They will do a lot of posturing but in reality when you are a part timer and they are low...

    Making the day go by faster?

    I genuinely miss when days felt like the dragged on for me at work. Nowadays I scramble to get things done and never feel like I have enough time. I say just learn to enjoy it. Before you know it you are at a point in life where at your job a 12 hour shift has passed by and you consider...

    Tests and Piloting

    The big reason why they are coming back is because they are no longer LCD/LED (whatever) screens, but E-ink screens (like a Kindle tablet) as that tech has progressed a lot in the past few years. So the battery on each tag lasts practically forever and the screen itself can never glitch out...

    Changes to dress code

    Although the optics of it arent great, I would be willing to bet the hard bottom line reason is they expect less women to buy them. With the rationale being men go to workshirts.com to get their work shirts, whereas the female TMs are more prone to going to name brands to find "cute" clothes...

    cracking down on sick time

    Leads are not responsible for other TMs. Their only role is helping with managing production goals. Managers are privy to more details about a TM than a Lead is. For example if a TM has expressed suicidal thoughts to HR. Their direct OM is looped in and bears a lot of responsibilities with that...

    cracking down on sick time

    From an AP standpoint, you leaving the building without permission is not acceptable and grounds to lock you out. We dont know what or why you are leaving, up to and including going to grab a gun from the car because someone pissed you off. When people leave without OM approval, we inform the...

    Changes to dress code

    I would be willing to bet the conflicting reports about vests is coming from state laws. Some state have laws regarding uniforms that force target to allow vests. Uniform requirements always been a difference between states. If I am not mistaken it is usually when some areas require companies...

    No more bikes

    Probably not as much demand for bikes compared to what it used to be. Not even just the cane-waving "the kids these days dont go outside anymore" argument but also things like ebikes, electric scooters, etc. all compete with that space. If I was a kid I would ask for an ebike, which still...

    Any other RDC getting zebras?

    No idea honestly. The one time I ever saw inaccuracies was right after the sorter was reset and the time were off by half an hour after that. Made an investigation into iPad theft incredibly difficult and take a month longer than it should have. Still got the guy in the end though lol.

    Any other RDC getting zebras?

    Yes and no. The sorter is a part of it but there are multiple points on the mezzanine where boxes (labels) can take multiple paths and the system scans the labels to determine where to go. So it encompasses the entire mezz. But yes the main impact would be seeing what is going on with the...

    Officially fired today.

    I distinctly recall my Sr TL being able to do that. But maybe he was just so well trusted they allowed him to do such things and covered for him after? There are times before the store would open that a key carrying TL was the only person in to do unload so they would have to have some level of...

    Target Together

    I saw a newsarticle where an email was sent out from corporate that they are eliminating 500 jobs across the corporate and DC side of things to increase sale floor staffing. So it does sound like they are trying to start increasing hours to some extent. Time will tell if its optics or a...

    Company wide walk out?

    What does a grocery and apparel retailer have to do with immigration enforcement? Why do they need to denounce it? Has anyone asked Walmart if they denounced it yet? Should they also denounce the IRS for making me pay back-taxes? I feel bad for Target for being HQ'd in Minneapolis sometimes...

    The entire inbound team walked out this morning.

    You are absolutely correct about this.
