Problem is that at many locations, folks don't have to press the Finish & Pay button. As soon as you start swiping your card or inserting cash, it auto goes into tender mode.

Ditto to the last two posts. I like the design of many things Target (I just bought my plate sets from Target, Room Essentials) while I will buy everything Great Value brand for food from Walmart.

I work at a Walmart Supercenter that opened last year. (There can be a difference compared to new stores from even four years ago.) I do agree that the tiles help with the sound (as we moved from an old Walmart that had the drop down tile ceiling, and it was quieter.) I am guessing that...

I thoroughly enjoyed the Fox News part. :) While I tend to be more conservative, the comment made me laugh.

Not coming from Target, I still have some learning to do. I figured I could apply to be a GSA since it seems to be a position, but I am guessing that it is more of a apply from within. I know at Walmart at my store we do not hire outside workers to work at our Customer Service because we don't...

Sorry guys to spark (lol "spark" ever since I have started working at Walmart that spark word makes me think of my avatar.) this big discussion. I have been thinking of switching over to Target lately and was thinking that I could do it as a GSA. Now that I know GSA has zero leadership...

I used to think that the GSA was a position similar to the CSM at Walmart, but now I realize that is not quite the case. I would still say that the GSTL is like the Front-End Zone Supervisor, but the CSM is a light-duty GSTL. We are able to do coachings, (not exactly the same as at Walmart: it...

Yes, I did forget to mention that :) Two full carts of gatorade... (I left it for overnights since it was like 10PM. oops. :secret:

We have seen these huggies coupons around our stores as an issue as well. Our AP Regional Manager (Essentially all the Midwest States) sent an email to all of the stores about these coupons. Apparently we have been hit real hard by these. At Walmart our computers don't let us get to very many...

In my store, we usually have 5 people in electronics department at a time. They tend to all congregate in the semi-circle desk area. One day I saw our Market Manager in the store just shopping for himself. (We are "lucky" enough to have all of our Market Managers live in the same area as our...

I am a CSM at Walmart. (I know, I know, shame on me, but I do enjoy you guys! ) When we need to call for help, we have a list of who is currently clocked in and register-eligible that shows on the CSM PDA. Walmart has scorecards where it is ok for certain departments to go up, and they would...

And then they wonder why the prices on products rise... We live with some Brilliant^ people.

Maybe it is wrong for me to be on the forums, (but I love reading about Target!) Anyway, I am a CSM at Walmart (I'm guessing I'm the equivalent to a GSTL, I supervise the Cashiers and respond to customer complaints, override the computer when price changes are too high, and the like.) At...

I know in some of the stores here in MN there are already Self-checkouts. The ones they had are the same ones that you find in Walmart, except they are Red, imagine that! They just switched the four express lanes (Which were not usable as they just housed carts on the guest's side) and now...

Thank you!!! I am thankful that you are all so helpful and friendly. It is nice being able to talk to people that seem to be happy with their jobs! I know that this is all about Target, and if I am off-task, let me know, but if you have any Walmart Q's feel free to send them my way in a PM or...
