    Archived This is 8 months late

    Always been meaning to type one of these. I left Target last year. My last day was New Years Eve. I don't regret Target at all. It provided me with income to get my first car, an apartment, and it really forced me to discover another career path. I tried to make a career in retail work, I...

    Archived Education LOA and average hours

    I'm going to be taking an educational LOA to pursue my CDL at a truck driving school. If everything goes according to plan, that LOA will lead into a 2 weeks notice. The class runs for 2 months. Does anyone know how this affects your average hours? My average hours are around 36 and I have...

    Archived How is price change/accuracy?

    I've been trying to get cross trained in pricing for the longest time. The ETL in charge of it (and who've I've been annoying about training) got promoted to STL at another store and ironically at the same time one of the pricing TM's got fired. They are looking for a new pricing TM now. I'm...

    Archived eHR: An error has occured

    Ok, so I've been having this problem for the longest time. When I login to eHR at home I get the message "An error has occured" with a small little e6 on the bottom 3rd of the screen. This doesn't happen when I login from the computers at spot. Before they redesigned eHR, I used to be able to...

    Archived Training someone in backroom

    I'm the backroom trainer and on Tuesday I'll be training someone. I can train someone to close pretty easily (and done it before) but I'm not sure how I can train someone to pull CAFs other than letting him watch me do them. I'm still trying to brainstorm how I can introduce him to the...

    Target on your resume & cover letter

    Like many of you, I'm not planning on being a lifer at Target (the fact I have a Bachelor's Degree and I'm having to make $9.59 an hour is depressing). What skills picked up at Target translate well for a resume? For example this is what I have on my resume for Target: And my cover letter...

    Archived Pulling cafs quick

    I had a backroom shift and I was all alone to pull the 7 pm cafs. I didn't complete them til 9 pm and I made the bonehead move to ask for help after they were already late. I've worked cafs a few times (though always with help except today) and I've always been slow at them. Am I missing...

    Archived How can I zone faster?

    Seasonal HL TM here. I was tasked with zoning G block (Market) and I zoned it from 5:30 - 11 pm (breaks included) and was unable to finish the zone. I zoned from the back to front (soda to bread). When I had to leave, I had about 4 aisles left. I'm seriously slow at zoning and it's...

    Archived Finished orientation today, 2 questions

    I finished orientation today and after bombarding the HR-ETL with questions, I have a few more before I start training on Saturday. 1.) Unpaid lunches are 30 min if you work at least 6 hours. The ETL told us to take it at the start of the 5th hour. On top of the unpaid lunches, do you also...

    Hello all. :) I applied for seasonal sales floor to make some extra cash while I continue my job search (I have a bachelor's degree in public relations). Passed the phone interview and have an in person interview this week. Not really sure what to expect because I've never had a retail job...
