~6 months in, I asked them if I could be trained as a GSA.... Aaaaaand here I am now, with about half a year of GSA experience

Don't even get me started! I've been a GSA for ~6 months and have to combat coupon fraud and scams multiple times per week. The biggest thing as of late are fake coupons which is so ridiculous... Trying to get my cashiers up to par with being able to detect fakes and sketchy behavior/purchasing...

Partner with your LODs/STL/AP/GSTL/GSTMS. Most stores have their own policies regarding the quantity of returns/how they want their TMs to handle that. My own store is pretty lenient with no-receipt returns, but we decline/limit ridiculous quantities... We have a lot of people who come in and...

I got a 2.50 raise from cashiering when they moved me up to GSA

I love my store because management understands... I also got the team member of the quarter award. I think how well you thrive as a GSA will depend highly on the management in store and how well the store is ran as a whole. I think I'm very lucky to be where I am considering how others feel...

I'm 18 and asked to be trained in GSA at the beginning of this year. It honestly opens up a lot of doors as to how the company is running and you get to learn a lot more about Target! I guess it varies from location to location, but I love my job. You'll have to open or close most likely and...

With great power truly comes great responsibility (kidding), but thank you so much for your input, this helps a lot!

Thank you! I'll keep that in mind

Awesome, thank you! I've been with spot for 9 months and am promoting from cashier & guest service TM. Luckily, my store is ran really great and I did get a nice raise. Thank you for the help!

I'm now officially a GSA in a fairly busy store, any tips for running the lanes? Luckily, I have awesome GSTLS, ETLS, and Store Managers who make training & target awesome. I could definitely use as many pointers as possible, though! Right now I mainly close so I'm not too aquatinted with opening.

Today, after talking to one of the part time GSAS, I decided to talk to my GSTL about training for GSA. She said yes! She just has to talk to the LOD.. Fingers crossed!

Wow. I'm not complaining, just wondering why I get long shifts as opposed to my coworkers who complain that they're only in there for a little while

No, I have half day ability on the week days

In the last few months I've realized that I get really long shifts in comparison to a lot of the other workers- not just other cashiers. I always get 8.5 hour shifts on the lanes and oftentimes see my coworkers come and go during them. Is this normal? A lot of my coworkers only have 4-6 hour...

Very true. I think a lot of the issue is that the younger kids working there with no prior leadership/trained interpersonal communication experience, I've seen stuff here along the lines of paring cashiers to get better ways of selling the red cards, and that seems like a pretty cool idea

Luckily during the holiday season I got about 15 a week, so at least I can humble-brag about that if the time comes.. But yeah, my target is hiking our already outrageous limit, anyways.. They've started placing red card quotas and if you don't get a certain amount, you'll get written up, and if...

Thank you for the advice, that helps a lot- especially the part about the degree. My target has given managerial level jobs to people who have a degree, but no prior retail experience (no offense to them, though, they're great). Awesome!

I like the way you think

I've worked at target for about 8 months now and really love it when I get to switch it up a bit from the monotony of cashiering and do something different for a change. I started working at guest service about a month ago and LOVE that, too. My store is fairly large and has huge red card goals...
