    Gen X-Target vs Gen Z-Target

    Miss that neon and Food Ave. Also miss those thick hooded flannel shirts Spot used to have and Lee jeans. The good old days…😁

    Target's Not Ready for Easter.

    In my experience Target is rarely if ever ready for anything. Instead of being proactive and getting ahead of a problem, it always seems to be cut hours, ignore what everyone knows is coming and then drive everyone over the edge trying to get caught up after everything hits the fan. And Spot...

    Vendor

    We had enough little round crackers to sink a battleship. Not calling anybody’s name, of course. 😇😂

    Sales Floor Why are all the mannequins white?

    Just speculation but I always thought they used white because it wouldn’t clash with any color clothing and since lighter colors reflect light better it makes the clothes show out better, especially under the spotlights. But who knows? Maybe white ones are basic generics and they’re cheaper...

    Need help on what to do...

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the cold, hard fact is that you probably aren't going to get that promotion as long as that ETL is your boss. Whether you aren’t ready as she says or you are too valuable for her to lose in the position you are in or whatever, she does have the power to...

    Well, that’s creepy…

    Boy in Target overnight

    That ETL had been with Target basically forever, something like 25 years and had been bounced all over the district. When this ETL left our store, to the relief of all, I was told they went to another smaller store as their STL (would be SD now) but they returned to our store a couple of years...

    Boy in Target overnight

    Right before Modernization my store had all three dayside Backroom TLs and two receivers quit over the course of a few months because of the impossible demands their micromanaging ETL. Nobody in senior management cared, and guess who kept their job?

    I'm coming back after 7 years, what's changed?

    Pretty much everything, and unfortunately not for the better. Skeleton crews, unrealistic expectations and people constantly pulled from their areas to help out elsewhere, usually to help OPU meet their unrealistic expectations or backup the understaffed front end. Sales floor rarely gets any...

    Vending machine money

    Years ago when I first started working at a department store, they had vending machines in the breakroom and the Employees Association got a cut of the vending machine money. I don’t remember how much they got or who owned the machines, if I ever knew, but we were encouraged to use the machines...

    Transferring a TL to department that didn't have one before.

    Mine, too, and I suspect it’s that way at most, if not all Target stores. Even if they do through some miracle communicate anything it comes out in Target-speak so the team members who are new to the cult don’t know what they’re talking about anyway.🙄

    Rant about the new "Freestyle" bikes

    I don’t blame you for being mad, I imagine the guests will be pretty mad, too. I can almost hear the “false advertising” complaints, which for once will be justified. A few of those complaints and a few bike returns just might encourage Spot to fix the signage. Hopefully, anyway.

    Got caught for stealing breakroom snacks

    You have the right to remain silent. This is an excellent time to use it.
