i'll take "things guests will never say" for 100, alex

So, I'm seasonal at my current store, and my last shift is next week. They decided against keeping me beyond the seasonal period, but they've told me I'm listed as rehirable and are urging for me to reapply. The problem is everyone seems to have a different idea of how soon I can send my...

do you know how confused i was before i read that second bit

To that one seasonal TM working hardlines with me today: If there were one person that I specifically did not want to work with on the last Saturday night before Christmas, it's you. At first I was lenient, because you claim this to be your first retail job. Okay. But now, I can clearly see...

To the guest today who attempted to pull that standard coupon fraud bullshit with me: I have to admit, I enjoyed that the instant I started ~reading the coupons~, as well as pointing out that they don't match your items, you instantly started pulling them back off the mismatched items in the...

it's hard enough to get a guest who: •is ready to leave the store •probably distrustful of corporations/their employees •afraid to be judged by the person behind them for indirectly holding up the line •terrified of literal squares of plastic to even listen to information about the redcard, let...

can't blame spot for being optimistic, i guess.

to the guest who was DEAD CERTAIN he handed me six dollars when he actually handed me five: i made a point to count the bills three separate times, because i found it strange that you paid for your $5.xx transaction with exact change, but were acting like i owed you money back. so no, i didn't...

Alright, so I recently started working sales floor. I've received two training shifts so far: the first involved me shadowing two team members in market, and the second was zoning with an actual trainer in hardlines. I'm starting to understand the general flow of the position, but I feel I'm...

Not to justify their laziness, but anyone who truly has a condition in which they need a mobility scooter should really be bringing one themselves. The ADA does not require stores to provide mobility scooters; though, stores like Target do it anyway for convenience.

I'm still confused about the field of "Presents self in a neat and clean manner following dress and grooming guidelines, including name badge." As little as it matters, I would think I'd score high on that, seeing as I regularly opt for a red dress shirt and am the only person at the front lanes...

I had an amazing guest the other day. To set the scene, she was an overweight blonde woman wearing a track suit. After ringing up a box of diapers, she said that the $25.99 box of diapers was on sale for $19.99. I set them aside and called over my GSTL, in the mean time ringing up the rest of...

To the guest who guest who got mad at me for trying to help them: I hope you trip on a railroad spike. A couple of women and a screaming 3 year-old came to my lane, today. Seeing that the mother was visibly annoyed with her child, I offered her a sticker. "Try this; you'd find it hard to...

I rung up $987.xx on a couple, before. No big-ticket items, just groceries, 3 carts, 30 minutes.

I'm brand new at Target, currently a cashier, and a recurring problem I seem to have is guests lining up when nearing the end of my shift. When I have a small line of people and need to clock out, I turn my light off, but people keep lining up. Within reason, I'll usually help additional guests...
