    How late is closing duties?

    Ok now I’m just amused. So my daughter’s new store isn’t moving her to cashier afterall. Instead, next week she has a 40 hour week being called “Closing Expert”. She works 1:30-10pm 5x a week for exactly 40 hours. And so (this is wild!) she leaves as soon as the store closes. No more...

    How late is closing duties?

    Quoting this all for truth… I am assuming option 2 is what is happening. The workers feel so much pressure. My daughter was commenting to a coworker about how closing at her old store only took an hour and they replied “that must be so stressful to get done in an hour” I told my daughter...

    How late is closing duties?

    Full disclosure, I no longer work at Spot, but my daughter does, and she just transferred stores. She just likes to vent to her mom! At the store we both worked at, I used to close back in 2008-2011 or so. If the store closed at 10pm your shift would say 10:15pm but it was really code for...

    How do I give notice in 2022

    Just following up, I gave 3 weeks notice on workday to keep them from making a schedule with me on it (only to have to edit it later) I put in the resignation at home at 6am and told my ETL when I clocked in at 7am. He asked no questions (other than would I train someone for CO) and gave a...

    How do I give notice in 2022

    You quit a year ago? And you’re still here? And claiming you didn’t drink the kool aid? Um, ok… you might think me a sucker for being happy at Target for 14 years. But I can assure you once I quit in June I won’t be lurking here. I’ll be moving on with my life. You sure you’re ok?

    How do I give notice in 2022

    Thank you. I just didn’t know if it should be in writing. Or if it was proper to tell one before the other (ETL vs HR) By the mere fact that it’s been 14 years at one job, I don’t quit very often. And unlike my previous jobs, Target is very corporate.

    How do I give notice in 2022

    Yes, that is correct. In my 14 years of wanting to keep the job, I didn’t have a reason to “know how to quit.” Why would I need to know that? But thanks for reminding me why I’m ready to move on…. Great helpful attitude there. 🙄

    How do I give notice in 2022

    (I’ve searched old threads, but some threads might be too outdated) After 14 years with spot, it is time for me to move on. While I feel like I have a good relationship with my team and HR, my relationship with my ETL is strained. How do I give notice? Is it a written letter? Given to my ETL...

    Closed Thanksgiving forever.

    Employees could only have that early dinner with family only if there was no travel involved. Our family celebrates 2 hours away from the store. Because the world doesn’t revolve around me the Target employee, asking Aunt Carol to move dinner to 11am isn’t feasible. there’s nothing we sell...

    Closed Thanksgiving forever.

    It makes financial sense. I’ve been at Target since 2008. We had openings like at 5am, then crept to 3am, then midnight, then Thursday 9pm, and IIRC Thursday 6pm? all those times it goes the same way. About 3 hours of wild mayhem and then dead silence until mid morning Friday. I remember...

    Consequences to calling out?

    What are the consequences to calling out? I know that it is ASANTS, just trying to figure out the gist of what to expect. The last time I missed a shift was almost 5 years ago. It was a NCNS (Sunday and I read my schedule wrong). For that I got a write up and 6mos probation. This time, I had...

    Will Target Mandate COVID-19 Vaccine?

    I get why companies want to mandate the vaccine. Two week quarantines are very disruptive to the workplace. Last December, my husband caught covid. It meant the other 3 adults in my household had to quarantine for 2 weeks. Two of us work at Target. Yup, a week before Christmas, 2 of us...

    MEGATHREAD Welp, masks are back again...

    Holy Sh… Not everyone Children under the age of 12 can’t be vaccinated yet. and you say “let those who are unvaccinated deal with it” I get that not everyone likes kids. But that is chilling. Also, folks who are immune compromised and vaccinated really struggle with the Delta variant. I...

    With the Delta variant increasing cases, what percentage of team members and guests are wearing masks?

    I am vaccinated but I seem to have a bit of a head cold so I’m wearing my mask… because covid or not, no one needs my germs.

    Will Target lift the mask requirement?

    Cart wipers forever if you ask me! I get that it’s just windex and hygiene theater. But I’ll take that over 2019 sticky grubby handles with half eaten nachos in the buggy.

    Will Target lift the mask requirement?

    If I may ask... extra cautious of what? You’re either vaccinated (safe) or you’re not. I was so motivated to get my family vaccinated that the day it was allowed for 16 yr olds I pulled my youngest kid out of school and drove to a rural community 2 hours away that had them available. I’d...

    Will Target lift the mask requirement?

    I am fully vaccinated. So is my entire household. I have also been careful to be masked from early on in the pandemic, cancelled family events over the holidays, limited my shopping to essentials this whole time. Places that require masks... I have my mask. Heck, next cold/flu season I’ll be...

    COVID-19 June 1: The Fitting Rooms Reopen

    I hear that. And of course repackaging hardlines and even folding/hanging soft lines returns is part of the job. but there is an excessive amount of soft lines returned due to the fitting room being closed. It’s no longer just “I changed my mind”. It’s 10 swimsuits sets, 8 pairs of jeans...

    COVID-19 June 1: The Fitting Rooms Reopen

    All the GS desk folks at my store will be rejoicing! The expectation at my store to perfectly hang and fold massive amounts of clothing returns for soft lines ... while also running an actual GUEST service desk (you know... serving the actual guest needs) is getting to be ridiculous.
