hello all. So I just started literally three days ago, and I am coming down with something bad. I can't eat, I feel so sick, I'm burning up, etc. What should I do? I know I don't want to get customers or tm's sick, but calling out on your second scheduled day?? Eek! Please help, thank you!

There's a guy like that at my current full time job. It sucks, they're just bullies who do generally do that.

That's ridiculous! What a stupid way to rate people. How can one cross train if they are glued to the register by management's hiring desicion?? Corporate America is just waiting to screw people over.

Well, I'm actually leaving my full time Monday through Friday to go back to school; Target is just meant to be a part time income supliment. I applied to a lot of jobs, and target gave me an interview first. And don't worry, I gave my two weeks notice :) My manager said I can always reapply if...

Thank you! That is great advice!

So just so it's clear, the bullying was at my old job. And I'm not sure what I would tell HR. "So and so says hi to everyone but me and goes out of his way to push me out of conversations and exclude me," "He gossips about me and turns the friends I do have against me," "He makes "read between...

I left my job for many reasons; school being the main one, and the bullying was a problem too. And yes, you are right. Work is work, not a social club. I'm just very sensitive to people who are "socially inept", and it can ruin my day, as wrong as that is. It's just exahsting to be around.

I was started at $10.50 an hour, was very happy about it too. Would not have taken the job if it was lower than $10.00. I'm sorry for everyone who got the shaft with pay! :(

I did my first shift yesterday for eight hours as a cashier at Target. I've worked at Home Depot before, so retail is nothing new. I have to tell you, I did not leave happy. Most of the team members I saw didn't want to talk or shoot the breeze at all. Only two or three said anything to me. Is...

It's not just Target. Home Depot did it to me more than once. 8hours a day, 8 days in a row. It should be illegal.

Oh, I'm quiting my other job because I'm starting school in January, regardless if I get hired at target or have to go elsewhere. But thank you for your concern :)

Thanks for the info. So be it then.

so, I was offered a hard line position when I was interviewed, but when they heard I had to give 2weeks notice at my current job, they changed the offer to cashier. My orientation is tomorrow, a week before my two weeks at my old job is up. My question is, if they ask me to start the next...

So I have my orientation tomorrow. Should I wear khakis and a red top or what? Also, my current job doesn't end for another week. I'll be starting as a cashier when I start at target. Will I start working right after the orientation? Thanks for the help!

Thank you all for your input!
