I agree. If our team leaders aren't occupied with something else they are usually in the back helping on the line. Even when they are occupied they still swing back and help clear it when it gets backed up sometimes. Not too often but sometimes our etls will be on the line helping as well.

I'm not sure what the other shifts get paid. I get 9.75 for a 11pm-3am shift. However this is also in WA.

The only issue I had with their craptastic box cutters was on my first night. Everytime I would push the blade out I ALWAYS grabbed it by the wrong side and would stab my thumb. I have no idea how I didn't bleed that night. That being said don't use your own box cutter without finding out if...

I definitely plan on leaving on good terms and plan to work up until the last day I'm scheduled before I start my new job on Nov 12. I'll go ask HR tomorrow for the form.

So I took this job after a move because I needed a job fast to pay rent. I actually do enjoy this job but sadly it doesn't offer enough cash on its own for me to pay back friends who have helped me as well as pay rent and feed myself. I was looking for a second job to supplement my income...

Our etl-hr came in during my orientation to tell all of the new hires the same thing.

I did get a temporary one, and it already expired. I never got it with my first check either. However, I DID get it with my first check but someone put it in the wrong folder in guest services. I talked to HR today and they said it should definitely be in. I went back to guest services...

I gotta go buy a few groceries tomorrow, I'll make sure to stop by and ask about how long it will be and get another temp one then. Thanks for the info.

Oh well it definitely didn't come with my first paycheck

Well actually most of the employees don't know me yet since I'm new and work flow.

Do I have to personally request one or do all new employees automatically receive one after X amount of time? It's been about 2 1/2 weeks since I started and I thought at orientation they said name tags and cards would take 2 weeks. I just ask because my temporary card I was given is already...

Thanks for the input. I will ask my team leader about cross training and if there is anything I can do for more hours tonight.

How long do I have to work at Target to be cross trained? My orientation was the 9th and my first actual workday was the 11th, so I've only been there about 2 weeks. I still haven't even done everything in flow(never unloaded, never bowled, only been in 1 spot on the line but I cover about 7...

I have never actually picked up shifts and don't recall everything I need to do for it. I can easily go ask HR or a co-worker on the details but I am wondering at most stores how easy it is to consistently pick up shifts? Being on flow I am only able to pick one of the days I'm not working...

My first several days have been good enough. I have been getting put in new areas of the store when pushing and having a chance to at least learn the layout of those aisles more or less. On the line I have been in the same place pretty much every time but earlier this week we were...
