Hey there, so I’m still pretty new to Starbucks, just opened it recently. But as we did our holiday transition they sent me five menu board signs that were all the same... how do I get the right menu boards?

They leave early all the time, early being two hours before they’re supposed to. Shop when they’re supposed to be working, take their lunches at the same time and show up late. Overall attendance. I get guest complaints because they mess up plans and phones and I’ve had gotten complaints the...

I’m having troubles with target mobile and don’t quite know what to do. The person I’m having trouble with most is the mobile lead. I’ve reached out to their district leader but the problem is they’re pretty much best friends and nothing comes of it. What else can I do?

Stl just denied educational loa and demotion. So I’m not so sure why options get so limited and it feels like you’re forced out to quit. Isn’t target supposed to care about their team and their well-being and not just their business? I’ve seen good stls and I just wish mine was one of them.

Why is that a thing? What if the person loses passion for it and realizes that. I feel like that gives them little options.

The stl pretty much refused to let the person step down without some kind of medical paper saying they aren’t capable of doing their job and that was the first I heard of it which seemed really strange

Maybe? The person isn’t on a corrective action or anything like that but they asked to demote and they were told team leaders couldn’t demote anymore unless physical disability.

Does anyone know if the process for demotion has changed?

Like I said it mostly works with my top performers because realistically they do their jobs everyday and they know how long it’ll take them. I don’t let them get carried away with ridiculous times (1 cart of push or go backs an hour). But ultimately I know if they worked hard and made the effort...

Something I do that I find works well with my top performers is I actually ask them. For instance, “hey Steve how long until you’re done with that go back cart/zone/push?” This lets the team member set their own expectations rather than you giving them timelines. So in turn to whatever their...

Well don’t get me wrong I’m confident with what I do and my leadership skills, I guess I’m just trying to figure out where these skills translate to best other than retail management jobs, and where’s a good starting point. I’ve applied to places like General Atomics but I’m trying to stay away...

I would love to move up to etl but sadly I don’t feel like my leadership really cares except for one person who wants me to do it. We even got a new dtl and he doesn’t care for tls at all. So it’s harder for me to keep putting myself out there to promote and get nothing in return at all. Then my...

I’m thinking of pursuing work outside of Target but I don’t know where to start or how my experience translates to anything but retail. I’m a senior TL now any tips?

Spider wraps! How do you keep them untangled? We always wind them up, but some only tighten so much that it still gives room for others to get tangled in. Is there a better way to do it?

My store is so bent on sales floor owning it that they won't allow any cashier or front end team member to touch it. Which I can understand at peak times but there's a lot of down time too where they could help a little. I can't seem to find any solution around it. The most I'll get is two...
