6AM process here. I always make sure our unload is completed by 7AM regardless of the truck size. Should NEVER take more than an hour. I have 2 throwers, 1 flipper, 3 on the back and 5 on the front. On small trucks >1800, we should be unloaded and into push by 7. We usually have between 25 and...

We got in 1 case today on our truck. Naturally the team pushed it to the endcap which looked quite ridiculous having 24 eaches over 5 shelves...

This is exactly true. I'm a TL logistics at a 6AM store. A push all is feasible so long you have TM that are empowered to know 10 cases of the same Tide will not fit on the shelf and should not be bowled out and the pushing team knows their endcaps and pushes to the piece. For most trucks, we...

I spent about half a day Wednesday writing the schedule for logistics (BR, Flow, Instocks, FDC). First thing that was really apparent was that now that BR and BR Day are combined hours, we have much less payroll for that. Before, I was given 200 hours (140 for backroom, 60 for backroom day)...

I'm entertaining the idea of moving cross country with my wife and wondering how difficult or easy it is to transfer stores as a team lead? More so since I'll be moving into a different region and district. I'm a relatively new enroll team lead (3 months), but have worked at Target for 5 years...

My store was a test for the all push. We just got off the test after begging for the past month due to unreasonable workload. While it should work in theory, the pulls were just too big for the BR to pull, push, and backstock. We're talking pulls 6 hours long every hour, so hardlines ended up...

On a nice weather weekend, we'll put some ice in the cafe freezer so the GSTL isn't always calling pfresh to bring them a bag of ice.

I always said, get it out the front door, not the back door. We try and follow the 4/7 day rule, but for the most part we are just TPCing HQ pushed product and the slower selling meat items. We've been pfresh for 4 years now, and we do TPC 218 and 210 on occasion if we have some issues with...

So I have a friend that left Target for other employment and is thinking of returning. It has been ~8 months and I'm just wondering if he'll need to start at square one for pay, or will he retain his pay when he left. Thanks!

Haha being at a 'Canadian shopping spree vacation' store, I know exactly what you mean... hopefully it's not another Canadian holiday coming up. My favorite thing working in electronics was trying to keep it together when Canadians would ask about GPS systems and why the ones we sold didn't...

Looking at my store transition, we are converting 9 doors to refrigerator space and OJ is moving to the backwall with milk (makes sense to me) and lunch meat is moving out of the open case into the next aisle with cheese (also makes sense). I'm not really sure with how my store is laid out if...

Just today I got some Taylor Organic salad and Fage 30oz greek yogurt for $1.96 for them both. Gotta love As-Is food items!

Agreed. We order from the backroom using the order guide, getting a visual on dates and on-hands.

Our CTL was scheduled 32 hours in pfresh but with all the off stage and vendor communication, the time she was spending in pfresh was really low. We convinced our ETL that myself and the other PA can run pfresh and the CTL can focus more on dry market. What I have done is assign a # to each...

Hi, My store got Pfresh in 2009. We were an A volume store before and now AA after going pfresh. -The leadership at my store really lets myself and the other PA run pfresh without much intervention. We have both been PAs for over 5 years combined and at this point know more about pfresh than...
