My area has layoffs at other major corps in similiar pay ranges. Zero chance Target will feel pressure to offer raises.

New process, not all DCs have yet (last I knew). I will let someone who knows more explain the details.

TSS is considered a lower role and they are limited in scope. They lack a lot of the training and permissions granted to APS/STSS (the DC equivalent of APS). Their role is deterent only.

TSS is AP. The other role is APS.

Context is AP at an RDC. Three of a specific box was supposed to have diverted from the automated sorter down the chute toward the store trailer it was being loaded on, only 2 appeared on camera to have done so. My peer that was investigating this said they thought a box that was similar...

I always assumed PFresh meant "Partial" Fresh since PFresh stores arent true SuperTargets with the full setup, only the essentials. Note that PFresh does also stand for a store type/model in this way, not just the specific area within the store.

That would be news to me and really not make any sense. Target has contracts with companies like Ryder and Ruan to handle it all. Target got rid of in-house dispatching they used to do at the DCs. Major accounts have on-site offices for the trucking companies. Yard drivers are also a third party...

The driver has mimimal contact with anyone within Target. They are contracters through third parties. Its not impossible communication came to the driver via dispatch, but that sounds incredibly suspicious if none of the leaders in your building were directly contacted about the shipment.

It was a 3 and 3 setup at the RDC I worked in, although they werent too anal as long as you hit numbers. Maybe that has started to change with the increased scan gap focus. Some of the guys that had gone to support other DCs (pre-covid but atill recent enough) said that the NY RDC they...

Just because it was specced to be built one way, doesnt necessarily mean that is what realistically happened when they were built/installed etc. Speculating: they might be trying to create a system that tells you where to backstock items rather than leaving it to the TMs choice. With knowledge...

You are talking about someone choosing to bowl their own personal vehicle and then immediately work it, I assume? Still a far cry from the time there was a dedicated team that pulled pallets off the line and bowled them nonstop during the unload for everyone to stock when the trailer was done. I...

Its kind of like being in remission and cancer. Just because you are clear of it now, doesnt mean it doesnt stay with you for life 😁 I may be gone, but the kool aid still infects me and I choose to keep up to date and continue coming here. Its the same for a lot of us, I am sure.

Working for a new company/warehouse I am constantly amazed at just how much standing around people do. Even sitting on pallets right in front of management. This isnt some mom and pop nobody business either, international $$$ logistics company doing very well. I keep wanting to walk up to...

The reach truck is a beast. Speed will come with experience, you are doing the right thing making sure that when you do get fast, you are fast at doing the right thing.

Yeah, its good form to let them know ahead of time. Your vacation will poof, so use it up before you quit. 401k you will be able to receive 30 days from termination, have to call pay and benefits to set it up and discuss options.
