    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    I am supposed to be the second PA, but our other one walked out without a word halfway through a shift last summer. I've been the only one since then. Honestly, what do CTLs even do? In my store when ever there is an issue tms come running to me.

    I'm Lost! The REDCard Thread

    Honestly, I have stopped pushing redcards to guests. I know that I am not educated enough on their ins and outs, so I really don't think its right for me to be preaching to someone about how great I have been told they are. I've been with the company for several years and still don't have a...

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    I have 3 team members. One is trying to leave pfresh for electronics. I must add that he is succeeding because he's only in market on my days off. Another is cross trained at food ave, so he has to work up there so many days a week in order to keep his pay rate. That leaves one who is strictly a...

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    The monthly cleaning is never finished at my store either. There are somethings that there is just not enough time to get to. We usually have 2-3 weekly tasks left over by the end of the week. I know that the daily cleaning is done, at least on the days that I'm there. We don't have a problem...

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    I kind of figured that was the case. It's like we don't have enough to worry about in market without this kind of thing happening. It was kind of funny at first, but now it's just getting annoying. Looks like I'm going to be making some announcements this week.

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    Has anyone had non-food items dropping into the daily SDA list at all in the past week? I've had to check the dates on placemats(mon) and artificial plants(thurs). The most recent was yesterday, an 18'' bicycle. There hasn't been one everyday, thankfully. I don't know if this is an issue I...

    Archived BEST TEAM SURVEY??

    Sadly, they didn't hand out bribe bags at my store with the survey, not that it would have helped them much. Instead our ETL-HR gave our small group a little speech about all the events in the breakroom-which have been slowly getting better-and all red card rewards. A box of raisins once a week...

    Archived BEST TEAM SURVEY??

    ETL Namjoon. Just kidding! Thank you for posting that! It's so hard not to think of them every time I read over "BTS" in this thread:D

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    If I could handle that kind of work load, I probably would just do it myself. I should be thankful though that I don't have to. As annoying as it is sometimes, honestly, I'm glad that someone else has to suffer with me in the cold for a few days. I tried to let my vendors know about everything...

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    Does anyone else feel like you are baby sitting while Plano is working on this transition? They are literally driving me insane! The refrigeration alarm went off 3 times after I had warned one particular tm about leaving the ice cream freezer doors open too long. It was almost up to 45 degrees...

    Archived How do you deal with the stress?

    I talk about this kind of thing all the time. Forget paying for acting school, I've been getting paid for three years to perfect my acting craft at Target. I do take my work seriously, no matter what it is, because I know it reflects on me as a person. I will admit, Some days it is really hard...

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    Yeah usually we aren't usually supposed to flex the freezers, at least not at my store. Sometimes I do the endcaps if they are light, but not the aisles. And yes, with transition coming up, we are being encouraged to flex into empty spots. I know there was actually communication to do that on...

    MEGATHREAD Target myDevices

    So does anyone remember when that new U2 album was distributed via iCloud last September to all iOS devices? Well, today I discovered that the mydevices didn't miss out on that free music. I definitely listened to "Songs of Innocence" this morning before the store opened. I think it's my...

    To that one guest

    TTOG who is actually a TM who came through my checkout lane when the light was off: WHY!?! I talked you on the floor and expressed how angry I was that no one else was responding to calls for back up. You heard the call go off on the walkie again and told me to "stay strong" as I hurried off. I...

    Archived Review Grades this year...

    Reviews are the time of the year when I am once again reminded that all I do will never be enough for Target. Had mine today. I was in no rush to get to the TSC. I made my TL wait 10 minutes after she called me so I could finish a cleaning task. I was told things I already knew about my work...
