Requirements for new ETLs -4 year degree -no older than 27 -has no clue, but an overbearing personality Requirements for internal promotion -20 years experience -a major ability to kiss ass

Don't blame you one bit. Target usually acts like it actually wants people to quit. When you think of the pitiful raises and how they're doing vacation time, plus how promotions only go to external college grads or the brown Noser's, there's literally no reason to stay past a year.

Does the LOD have any say over you? If not, I would even take a pay cut and less hours just so I could be at my store and give them my biggest and fakist grin knowing they cant say or do shit to me. Oh the passive aggression would be...aggressive.

Hi all. Lurked for a while, but something came up that I wanted your trusted advice on. So without exposing too much about me I've been in retail management before Target, and am currently a GSA in a medium-high COL area (less than LA, more than Charlotte). I'm relocating to a lower COL area...
