    Archived Instock Team Going Away in March

    Human imperfection and sometimes just blatant laziness. A big problem I usually see is that the flow team isn't careful when they push, something is in the products place, and they just assume its full when its not, its just something where its not supposed to be. So then the product gets...

    Archived Can I get at least one more cashier up front?? Oh and hey guys!

    I guess. The way I see it, we're all going to the same place, some are just more in a hurry to get there. If you're really in a hurry though, meth will kill you faster than speed. ;)

    Archived Why do we still carry CDs?

    Kind of pointless in anything mobile though, as you're not going to have big enough of a screen to notice hi-def anyways. Just my opinion though. Well that's not to say that CDs and DVDs won't still be around. But for them to be sold in mainstream retail is a different story. You don't see...

    Archived Seriously? Cutting hours in the last week of the busiest month of the year?

    Someone is paid to come up with bright ideas. If it's not working, then you must just be slacking. Uh yeah... The last STL we had didn't do a whole lot, but the one we have now doesn't spend more than a half an hour in his office a day, I'm willing to wager. Those who actually work can...

    Archived Calling Out

    I feel you, trust me. That was one of the only good days of my life. lol. I was terminated from that job because I couldn't afford to maintain my car, front axle half-shaft went, hit parked car, insurance dropped me, couldn't make it to work, kicked out of apartment, and the rest of my family...

    Archived Seriously? Cutting hours in the last week of the busiest month of the year?

    But you're "not making sales." Just like you'll never work hard enough. This is retail, you work for a corporation, which means... what? The sky is the limit? Nope. There is no limit to profit. That's how corporations run. Stock is expected to continually go up. Do people really think...

    Archived Why do we still carry CDs?

    Good point. CDs are crap. Personally, if I want an album, I buy an LP if I can, or I'll buy a CD if nothing else, straight from the artist. Our store seems to sell a good bit of CDs though. I think we just have more people in the area that don't know how to use the internets and just have...

    You sound like a sucker. Hey, I need someone to clean my house. Come on over, I'll let you eat some of the crumbs off the counter top. Thanks! Go team!

    Archived Calling Out

    Same. I rarely call off. And even when I'm not feeling well at all, and will not make it in at my scheduled time, I offer to come in later when I'm feeling a bit better. However, I've stopped doing that, since you'll just be written up for it later. You're better off just calling in sick and...

    Archived Seriously? Cutting hours in the last week of the busiest month of the year?

    Same. Yours sounds a lot worse though, unless you're exaggerating a little. $130k and you were the only one on the floor?? I worked last Sunday, they gave me an extra person for backroom/push/zone/fill endcaps/etc. and there were about 5 people total on floor, and that was still pretty damnd...

    Archived I was nominated for peer trainer. Not sure what that is exactly.

    Exactly. I've been training people for years and they've been giving this "title" to people that just started a couple months ago and don't even know what they're training, so obviously it doesn't really mean anything other than you're the designated person and should have enough time to follow...

    Archived Go Out With A BANG!

    *too =3 Yeah that'd be fun to do or watch, but I wouldn't want to be charged for those TVs, or even have to go to court over it. I do like the idea of just leaving the machinery on the empty truck before it's picked up. One of our closing LODs left the belts on a truck before, had to have...

    Archived The Big & Dandy Backroom thread!

    LOL! Part A, Yes that's an old picture from before October. Part B, I was sympathizing with you! lolol~ They used to make the cooler/freezer completely my burden to carry. So I think I can appreciate your rage. I've spent 10 hours int he freezer before in one day. That was in and out of...

    Archived Go Out With A BANG!

    Yeah, that's what I figured too. For instance, a full pallet of water, it has a hard time getting to 6ft, try taking it all the way and it won't make it. Those damned waves are heavier than a pallet of water I'd wager. haha, yeah our guy is cool like that too =3 LOL! I like the sound of it...

    Archived shift diff

    Exact same here. My store is considered "ultra low volume" which I think shouldn't be applied to any Target in truth, but we get hosed on hours and such. We used to do 4am all the time, but we got a 50cent diff. Kind of P's me off to see that others were getting $1 diff. But then they moved...

    Margarine != butter. Margarine == 99% plastic. Butter == dairy. Same!1

    Archived The Big & Dandy Backroom thread!

    CTL? I'm assuming that's a team leader for cooler/freezers? Yeah, we've never had one of those, never will. We don't even have anyone that wants to deal with it. When I tried going out of my way to try caring, I was criticized for wasting time. Yeah, that's the way I figured it worked...

    Yeah, I'm thinking, if a stripper knew the workload of an ETL, she'd be offended at the comparison.

    Archived The best shoes for working retail

    My feet have been absolutely killing me in the last few months. It's been so bad that I'm practically in tears at work. People look at me because I'm walking funny. I think my arches are falling or something. Whatever is going on it's very painful. I was asking around myself and didn't...
