Was really common at my store when I worked there to give you overtime one week and almost nothing the next. I got to the point I refused to work overtime. The fact it bumped me into a new tax bracket and I took home less then when I worked 35 hours didnt help either. I always just kind of...

When I quit, (I had been there 10 years and had worked there 10 years before returning) I was making the same as the starters, lost my health insurance ( found out about it on the news before they told us) and couldn't get any hours. Was kind of amusing when the STL called me to his office to...

Sorry but my family is not going to take a friggen Tuesday off just so they can eat thanksgiving dinner around my schedule. That being said, I'm not really mad at Target as much as I am at the self absorbed people that think they need to show up on thanksgiving day and buy cheap crap that we do...

Our Exec denies all requests and waits for you to come begging for it, and I usually end up not getting all the time off I wanted in the end.

Like someone else said, the only good thing about 6am is you get to sleep like a semi normal human. It's really awesome to be harped on to keep everything neat and clean and oh by the way hurry up your going to slow too.

I recommend keeping your mouth shut during chat sessions. Every time I ever opened my mouth I got chewed out for it the next day. They say its confidential never leave the room but thats b.s.

I wish about 10 years of flow team work on a couple of you people in this thread.

Well if they way our flow team is being treated lately is happening at your store then they are angry. And to whoever posted about them going to the local prison and hiring people it was done at my store in the past, and crazy enough they were great team members.

"I must say that my introduction to working at Target has been nothing short of a clusterfrak. " It never really gets much better.

One of the few good things about this job has been the stress usually stops when I leave the building. Well at least about what I'm doing at work anyways. The schedule always has me stressed out.

Really busy tell about 1:00 am or so (not as bad as last year though) then freakishly dead after that. I think our store will end up way down on sales over last year.

I read somewhere that they asked the STL's about it and they where suppose to communicate with the Team Members. LMAO like the STL's did anything but say yes that sounds like a great store opening time!

I call B*** S**** on that. The only reason they are doing it is because of Walmart doing it, and their own personal greed. Nothing new though we get lied to by management all the time, I just wished I couldn't see right through it 95% of the time.

I signed the thing, mostly because I felt like I had to make some kind of protest, even if it was meaningless. Far as worrying about what Target might do to me about it, Im a little bit past giving a rip.

What I am dong is signing the online petition and as soon as christmas is over looking for a new job. All this walking out, calling in blah blah is pointless because there is way to many people who don't see that this is just a small sample of how far Target is willing to go.
