Yes, yes, yes.

Certainly tell your AP what happened. Part of their metrics include prevented theft, even when other non-AP TMs are in on the action. Plus you need an "Attaboy" out of the deal, in addition to the one I'm giving you now. Attaboy. :D

Strange scenario here. It could be argued you didn't actually perform any work if you just followed someone while you shopped. If you provided Guest Service, you worked off the clock. I'd imagine after you tell your AP about it, (I hope you have an ETL-AP, a TL won't help much here), you'll be...

I'd need an HR exec to give you a better answer. I know TL's have a quantitative score associated with their qualitative rating. (96 for an O) I don't believe this is the case at the TM level. I'm assuming an E would garner the same percent merit increase. If your peer earned more peer hour...

#1: AE2014 will stick. For the foreseeable future. The sooner Target gives up in Canada, the sooner we can get back to business in the states, where we actually make profit. #2: Don't get too excited until you start your first day in your new position. I've seen too many promotions get halted...

Stop having panic attacks. First thing you do tomorrow is contact HR directly in person, let them know you attempted to give advance notice, share # you called and what message you got. Then come to work reliably and be someone that they don't want to lose. That's it!

ETL here. If I could do it again, I'd have held off for something better. You'll miss your family on all those closes and weekend shifts you'll be doing. My Dad always said you need to be able to see your kid get on the school bus or get off. There won't be many days you'll be able to say you...

POG team is the hardest to catch up once behind, that's certainly not telling you anything new. It's also one of the most dependent on other workcenters to execute their job well. Ironically, there are usually more ETLs in a store than POG TMs, and in my experience, there are only two or three...

The process team hours match up decently. It's your STL's job to know the team, and allocate more to teams when they need it. It's our job to set everything faster than the company's expectation and every now and again there will be a serious blunder on the time allocated for a set. Power...

There's probably a decent reason why that ETL didn't return, but the hours story is bogus. There really isn't an incentive to cut payroll for the sake of cutting. There is an incentive to make payroll goals, which can sometime mean cutting back. This may be due to overspending earlier in a time...

Sure. I found thebreakroom.org very early on. Even prior to my first interview as I was digging into the company for interview prep. I've used this site as a tool- staying ahead of many things thanks to the incredibly knowledgeable and friendly TMs posting here. Would love to return some of that!

Two-fold answer here. On the recruiting side I've been pleased. At least in my area I've seen Target moving away from the fresh-out-of-college, random liberal arts major hires and grabbing some experienced candidates. Some even retailers by trade. Though I do feel that the quality of ETLs is...

ETL-Hardlines. I've done a couple of assignments, however.

Hi there, Long time lurker, first time poster. I'd like to answer any questions any of you might have for an ETL currently in position. Interested in sharing as long as there is interest.
