This isn't Target related, but I find I get asked if I work there when I'm at a lot of non-Target places. One of my favorite ones is I was walking around a liquor store. Their uniform was black dress pants and a button up long sleeve dress shirt with a walkie with a headset. I go in wearing...

Odds are, she was just calling all the Targets and asking that and forgot to mark down that she had called your store. When that happened to me, the guest was kind of embarassed, but I helped her out by looking at stock counts in the different stores and told her which ones had a high quantity...

I've had two prank calls get through the operator to me this week. The first one was a woman calling to ask about KY, what type we had, prices, etc. She kind of giggled when she asked me, but I thought maybe she was just jealous. Went, looked at the section, got the names and went back. Told...

I do not though. I refer to them as "The green one," "The orange one" and "The yellow one"

... are you pondering what I'm pondering?

My zone is almost always HBA, and I'm a guy. I don't mind going in those aisles, but I do refer to them as "The aisle where I don't help people." If I try to, it just results in embarassment for all parties involved, and odds are I won't be able to help anyway.

Why's that an issue? Last I checked, Target was a business. Businesses sell things. Things like stupidest most worthless crap. Or are you just talking about stupid foods like multiple of the giant Cheese Ball containers?

You know a good way to find out what kind of car they're driving? Ask "What kind of car are you driving?" While that doesn't live up to "Ask a Silly Question Day," it's a good thing to do with any large item. Selling a large item is good, because it results in money. But a large item that can't...

Selling him on that universal remote would result in a LONG phone call detailing how to set up said remote. No thanks.

Think I've mentioned this one here before, but always good. I'm not official electronics, but I was walking by the phone at 8am on a Tuesday morning. The electronics guy was away getting the key and I figured they were just asking if we had a new release. "This is electronics, can I help you...

At least he reduced his wing order...

When I grab a PDA, I like to scan a barcode with it before leaving the TMSC. If it's a weak battery, usually it will drop down to red after the first scan. Then I know to grab a different one. One of the nice things about having a room full of broken equipment is people tend to leave broken...

To that one Exec in training. You are not going to be good. You are wayyyyy too focused on "getting" to do coachings and firings that it's actually kind of scary. I was building a bike in the backroom and his his trainer ETL was telling him about Price Challenge. She said the GSTL needs to get...

I had a 2 cans of pop sitting in a 12 pack in one of the cabinets. I didn't feel like taking it home, so I protected it by placing a sticker on the first one that said "Not yours" right over where the opening would be. I figured if anyone read that, they'd probably realize someone would be on to...

A while back I was coming back from a carry out (not team lift, so I was flying solo). A scary looking meth heady Eminem looking guy approaches me in the parking lot. Already when he was about 20 feet away I have my hand hovering over my walkie, because I know he's approaching me and it could...

"She should have let me get less back on my return!"

Conversely, during my last shift a guest flagged me down to tell me her son had accidentally spilled some chocolate milk and could I get her a paper towel so she could clean it up. I grabbed the towels, but told her it was no problem, I could clean it up for her. She stood by me and thanked me...

I actually don't support that. It's getting rid of one net bag loss, that equals one credit. I also don't give multiple credits to people with multiple bags (unless they complain, then I don't care enough to defend a five cent difference)

Because it saves so much more time to give them that long sentence (or physically escort them to find another TM) than to say "They're on lunch?"

I once had a kid run behind my station, go up to the register computer and hit power during the middle the transaction. We both just kind of laughed it off and restarted the transaction on the next register.
