    Archived Quit and reapply or stay and transfer?

    My ETL says I am required to have Sunday availability. Between church and the assignment schedule for one of my online classes, I only have about 2-3 hours of Sunday availability, so I designated myself as unavailable for the entire day. Since Sunday is our busiest day, I really shouldn't be...

    Archived Quit and reapply or stay and transfer?

    In the end, the choice is 3- Quit and apply elsewhere. My ETL twice denied the availability request change I need in order to attend my college classes (yes, I included that in the comment box on Max self-service), so I will put in my two weeks tomorrow. Thank you all for your help on this.

    Archived Quit and reapply or stay and transfer?

    . So I have to wait and see if I am made permanent, work another 90 days as permanent, and then I can transfer? Just trying to get this all straight.

    Archived Quit and reapply or stay and transfer?

    I lucked out and worked with the TL who interviewed me this evening, who remembered and asked when I was moving. He is going to ask the ETL to at least let me know one way or the other about only being seasonal or not. I know it is a really bad time of year to transfer stores. However, the...

    Archived Quit and reapply or stay and transfer?

    Thanks for your advice. I will try to stay at my current store and see what happens. I haven't had any corrective actions and receive lots of compliments from my fellow TMs. I rarely get to work at the same time as my TLs (haven't seen one of them since before Christmas) or the ETL-HR, but I...

    Archived Quit and reapply or stay and transfer?

    I am still a seasonal TM as far as I know, but since I'm on the schedule through January 21, I'm starting to think my store plans to keep me and just hasn't gotten around to telling me yet. My problem: My family is moving 40 minutes south in a week. I told my TL I was moving when I...

    Archived How Many Hours Are You Now Getting?!!

    Archived Should I Feel Good?

    I also have a degree in history. I would agree that there are few jobs available in the field and history majors should avoid debt, especially because the pay for those jobs is low. However, I chose that major both because I enjoy the subject and it provides a broadly applicable set of skills I...

    Archived Quick Question

    I'm loving it as well, but from the viewpoint of a seasonal TM. I get to try out the company with the psychological benefit of already knowing that if I don't really like it, there is a natural end. (I do like it, but I wish I was earning more money. Maybe I should start temping.)

    Archived Policy for Jackets On sales floor

    That's why I specifically bought a cardigan for my seasonal position. I already own enough different white and black camisoles, polos, and t-shirts to wear one every day of the week, so I just pick one and put the cardigan on over it. If I am able to get a permanent position, I may just get...

    Archived Pay in other states

    Seasonal TM also in Texas at $7.50. It is still the same as what I was offered for a seasonal position in 2008.

    Archived Extra 10 percent offbrands

    I think I would shop there more, too, especially for groceries. Although some of the Market Pantry items are better price-wise, I still have a lower bill overall at the chain grocery store. At the last retail store I worked in, we got 40 percent off a certain number of clothing items per season...

    No list yet when I went to check the Dec 18-24 schedule this evening. I was actually surprised that was even up already. Hopefully it will be up by Sunday.

    Archived Extra 10 percent offbrands

    It was announced at our evening huddle that TMs will be able to get an extra 10 percent off for a week or two later this month on all Target brands. I know this includes the brands Market Pantry, up & up, Choxie, Sutton & Dodge, Wine Cube, and Archer Farms, but ones of my TLs thought it also...

    Archived The best shoes for working retail

    I wear my Clark's Unstructured black flats most days whether I am working or not, but I have a pair of cheap tennis shoes with surprisingly good arch support that I wear once in a while.
