    Why take break in the breakroom?

    Really? If the general idea is that I am uptight and paranoid, then I have questions: If I am uptight and paranoid, why do you ask me about how I go to the bathroom when it's none of your business? If I am uptight and paranoid, why do you ask me about whether I had a menagerie a trois? If I am...

    Why take break in the breakroom?

    So it has been addressed to me by a jerk of a team member that certain factions of the team think I am a snob who knows everything. I don't care much about what people think, but I really wish I could have a break from the flow team during break. Certain individuals manage to find places...

    Archived My Store Is Filled With Sour Grapes

    I'd rather just get another job. Management is too buddy buddy with them and some of them are literally the same age as them, so how exactly can they turn professional and then go back to being buddies again? It's time to leave Target.

    Archived My Store Is Filled With Sour Grapes

    I've had three days off this week with this one being my last. I pretty much work into the weekend starting tomorrow and I'm dreading it. I don't even think it's the work anymore. It's the people. I am a goofy oddball. A perfect fit for the rather intense overnight shift. Increasingly...

    Archived So we now have no time clocks at my store!!!

    Our store may be getting this I suspect. Alot of us take along time to get to the time clocks because they are generally in two places on the other side of the store.

    Archived Crying at Target .... Good / Bad / ...?

    My store is filled with drama. It's kinda hard to get close to anyone and reveal personal info as some of them who as pushing 40, like to use your problems as comedy. We talk horrible to each other and dress it up as just having fun. Sometimes I take it as fun and sometimes I wanna punch...

    Archived What can I do to get my team leader removed?

    Although I can't stand certain TL's in on my shift at my store, Target has cut my hours so much that I don't really have to deal with them at all.

    I'm Lost! The Call In/Sick/Late/NCNS/Attendance Thread

    Actually that is a great way to push good workers out. Yes having more hours is great and having better treatment is great, but it's horrible when you and only a small handful of workers actually do work as opposed to the rest of the team. It causes burnout and people end up leaving for other...

    Archived I hear an "I told you so" coming...

    So after nearly months and months of taking CNA courses, I have officially decided it's not for me. Not only are the costs of the classes expensive, you essentially have the same thing as Target when it comes to uniforms (my experience): you have to buy it yourself and in the size that fits. I...

    Archived ipods/ music for flow

    Our store used to let you, but we have too many people who get into their own music and don't listen to the PA when lunch/break is called. Now the rule is hell no.

    Archived Do you guys do the "wave"?

    Right now my store is doing a One Wave kind of thing. Start on one floor, end on another. Problem is we had our budget cut so drastically that only 10 or so people are scheduled. Combine that with getting only one or two days, there really isn't any point of them trying to work.

    Those two thousand extra stores they made might be the tip off.

    Archived New hires coming while my hours cut

    I'm tired of proving things to a store that doesn't fire it's deadweight. You blast me, and not others.. Hell no.

    Archived Got my umemployment

    I wasn't fired. I have been laid off. I've had my days cut to nothing. Technically in the next week I am going to have hours, but under 20. I still get UI in that case anyway.

    Archived Got my umemployment

    It's not alot of money, but it will provide me with some kind of stress relief. I did wonder whether I should have told them I was going to school or not. I did anyway because I see no point in lying. After all the conditions of getting those benefits are so that you get a leg up for the moment...
