    To that one Team Member I - ARCHIVED

    I'm going slightly off topic here, but I'm gonna go ahead anyway. To the vendors that supply our store, please do your freaking job correctly, and actually put in some effort. I mean, my God almighty, I don't know what I have to do but I'm thoroughly convinced we have the worst vendors out of...

    To that one Team Member I - ARCHIVED

    Honestly, the way it looks, everyone freaking walks by it. Flow team will be out there, 10-11 AM, and I don't usually get in to close PFresh until 2:30 or 3, so in that 3-5 hour span, I'm sure there are plenty of TMs and TLs that walk by it but no one does anything and it bothers the absolute...

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    True, touché. I just get worried about such things because we usually get knocked hard on very soft violations so I would just like to avoid such incidents all together.

    To that one Team Member I - ARCHIVED

    To the flow team that just leaves trash and baskets out on the floor, please stop. It's incredibly annoying. I shouldn't have to come in the afternoon and immediately find a basket/flat with a bunch of defectives on it. Nor should I come in and walk down sections C and D and find all the trash...

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    We have a rocket scientist doing the PFresh transition at my store. She's always had a habit of being a mediocre team member who can barely get her work done and she severely, severely lacks in the common sense department. I come in yesterday and I see all these bagged meats (prosciutto, salami...

    Archived How is the produce/meat/bakery auto ordering working for you guys?

    The bakery at my store is lackluster at best. I love to have it full but it rarely works out, even after I zero out the counts. The three things we sell the most of -- short French bread, long French bread and Apple Fritters -- rarely come in it seems like and when they do, they fly off the...

    Archived Management at my store never helps with guest first.

    This is something that is exuberantly frustrating to me because it's very similar to our store. The ETLs wil sit there and freak out about backup, but most of them won't jump on, even though they're standing right there at the check lanes. They're always on the cashiers about getting RedCards...

    Archived What's the grossest thing you have ever seen/ found at target?

    Hahaha, well a few things... - Someone just dropped a deuce in one of the chemical aisles (turned out it was a soccer mom in her mid-40s believe it or not, after seeing her on camera) - I got stuck on cart duty one day after callouts and someone had left three smelly dirty diapers in one of the...

    Archived What makes a great TL?

    This is what I think makes a great TL... - Treat the TMs the same way you'd want to be treated - Spend the majority of your time out on the floor, like helping with pulls, reshop, sales planners, zoning, whatever - A great TL needs to have a floor presence. If you sit in your office all day and...

    Archived do cart attendants ever get promoted

    If I'm being honest here, I think it's a complete crapshoot. The Cart guys at our store have just worked in that category (along with cashiering, obviously). But it never hurts to go up to your STL and ask him/her if you can be cross-trained in, let's say, Presentation and that you would like...

    Archived venting time

    Around this time last year, I was tabbed as someone with a 'bad attitude'. We got a new TL a couple months later and she immediately took a liking to me and took me under her wing and basically told me that, if I wanted to have a career at Target, I'd need to shape up... ya know, be a friend to...

    Archived Review Grades this year...

    I'm very surprised at some of these raises. I honestly thought they'd be a lot higher. I wasn't expecting to see raises of less than 50 cents. I would have thought that, if you got an O or an EX, your raise would be at least $1. Getting an 'Effective', I can see it being below that Mark but not...

    I'm Lost! The REDCard Thread

    ...I'm curious as to see what it's like at other stores. I've been working at my store for a while and will be celebrating my two-year anniversary this year. When I first started, you would often hear about RedCards, but not anywhere close as to what it's like now. The LODs at my store (mainly...

    Archived Hey Guys, New Here

    Haha, oh yeah I already know. I've already heard about people getting fired via social media and I'm not about to make that same mistake. Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone. Appreciate it.

    Thank you, I appreciate it. I read about your situation with Target and I hope everything will be alright. Somehow everything will work out and I hope the ship will be corrected at some point down the line. Everything will work out, my friend.

    Archived Review Grades this year...

    They gave me my review a couple of days ago. I received an O after getting an alright review last year. I'm the only one in our store that received an O (we have an ETL that's worked for Target for nearly ten years and she once said that 'no one was worth an O'). And I know it sounds dumb, but...

    Archived If you could have a fast food joint replace Target Cafe. Which would you choose?

    Haha, this is a tough question. I don't think I could narrow it down to one. The two I'd love to have the most: Sbarro Pizza and Bojangles' Chicken. Also wouldn't mind having either Cinnabon or Chick-Fil-A either. Those four would definitely be at the top of my list. But if we did have any of...

    Archived Snacks In The Break Room

    Wow, that's absurd. There's nothing wrong with helping the TMs but some just don't wanna do it. It doesn't make any sense to me to be that strict because no one is gonna enjoy working for that person if they don't occasionally help out their TMs. But like you said, she's been there 30+ years so...

    Archived Snacks In The Break Room

    One thing that I like about my store is the TLs take care of us (to a certain extent). We have our FFF event calendar and do something 3-4 times a week, whether it be fruit, lunchmeat, nuts, popcorn, Gatorade, candy bars, chips & salsa, or my favorite... Grilled Cheese Day. The unfortunate...

    Archived Hey Guys, New Here

    I've been reading the forums every now and then and have decided to join. I've been with Target for about 16 months and am cross-trained in basically every major category (PFresh, Hardlines, Cashier, Carts, Electronics, Backroom, Flow, Presentation, GSA), but Softlines -- I also train TMs for...
