Hey guys. I originally worked at Target from 2010-2012 in Charleston, SC. I got hired as a seasonal cashier in November 2010 and was kept after my 90 days. I had just recently graduated from college and needed some form of income while I decided what I was going to do next. I got trained in...

My last day was yesterday. Thank God!!! Quit for a much better paying job ($10 an hr part-time). Didn't do anything drastic. Just went on my break and decided not to come back. Since one of the TLs wanted to tell me that I wouldn't be eligible to come back (not that I would) if I didn't work out...

I wish my store had this so they would know. As I said before, my step-dad is currently taking me to work and has to work around his own schedule in order to do it so I can't just say yes to call-in like most unless it's a day ahead. If the bus route extended to our area it would be much easier...

I am well aware of reliable transportation being a requirement for a job. But when your transportation is not your own and you're currently waiting for your own vehicle to be repaired, you have to work with what you've got. As I've said before, I've more than shown that I'm willing to work...

I've done an excellent job in sales and I'm currently cross-training at the service desk so that is not the issue.

The lack of benefits doesn't bother me, as I don't plan on making Target my career position. It's just a means to an end. But I would like to get the hours that I told them I wanted instead of being left off for a few days and suddenly being called in and having to figure out if I'm going to be...

As I said in the beginning of my post, on the schedule, it states that I'm available to work everyday (as I'm taking my classes online). I'm not mad at them per say, it just doesn't make sense to me that they'd only schedule me for 4-5 days, sometimes only 3, when I'm willing to work the whole...

Wow.....lost for words lol.

Something that I will never understand. You tell them you're available to work everyday, yet, they'll only schedule you for about 4-5 days out of the week for around 24-28 hours. Then, on a day you aren't scheduled to come in, they call you about three hours before a shift starts when you're...

Started cross training at the service desk today during my shift. There's a lot more that goes on there then I realized, but it's nice to learn something different. I already got some positive feedback from my TL.

Just wondering, how do I go about getting cross trained? I'm currently a cashier. I started in November 2010 and took a break from January to May 2011 for a semester of school out-of-state. When I came back, I was at the service desk for a while on my first day. I liked it and would like to...

I'm not saying it matters. I'm just trying to find out if they make you do training despite the fact that you've previously worked there.

So I start my first day as cashier tomorrow. Between this week and next, I work a total of four days for four hours each as a part of training. I worked at Target last year from October to January before I resumed school. My question is this: Can my training hours be changed to regular hours...

Thanks for all of your responses.

I took the drug test last Friday. The same day I got the conditional job offer.
