    Specialty Sales to take over home and seasonal

    The port issue pretty well affected the whole country and will continue for years to come. We even leased container ship(s). These are multi year leases and are somewhat expensive given our needs. Target is one of the largest importers in the country. We even have dedicated import warehouses...

    Specialty Sales to take over home and seasonal

    That was a port issue. No amount of planning other than trying to obtain auxiliary temporary warehousing could help that situation. I seriously doubt if there was any short term warehousing available either given our size. The day to day might be suspended temporarily, but unless they come up...

    How are y’all’s stores?

    That was an anomaly. What I'm referring to is the latest RDC releases. We were notified it was coming. Going forward, it would not be unreasonable for a better outcome.

    Specialty Sales to take over home and seasonal

    We're going the same direction. I foresee a lot of problems given we cannot manage a schedule nor workload now. Our leadership doesn't manage. They don't believe in preparation. They're of the philosophy that we'll "just muscle through it." Backroom is woefully disorganized. We have things...

    A little too much freelancing going on. Not good, not good at all.

    Specialty Sales to take over home and seasonal

    Oh no it is not. Modernization is Target's inventory management control program. Everything is managed through this. Our systems are elements of modernization. You leadership sounds like mine. When hearing about this changes said the same thing. The worse thing, they are going back somewhat to...

    Specialty Sales to take over home and seasonal

    Well we really went flop. Our new ETL's never made it and it looks like we're on to round two. One of our TL's and I believe the corresponding ETL are using the change to revert back to the older ways. They've even said as much. This will not work. Modernization is not going away. It is our...

    Bye Bye Receivers

    Without being too mean about it, organizing would be sorting in this situation. I ran it by some other people and they all said the same thing. To organize it would be reasonable to conclude that it would be to put/group in such away for distribution/storage.

    How are y’all’s stores?

    I believe in the near future, spot is not going to be very forgiving to the stores who do not plan for such events prior to their arrival. We fell flat on our faces. Our leadership refused to use the storage containers and thought we could just "muscle" through it. All I can say that it was...

    How are y’all’s stores?

    You CANNOT use cameras to spy on your workers. There's enough out there on that. What you can do is look at the tape if an event occurs such as an accident. It's more for protection of the company against false accusations. If you use one to monitor your employees, you have to monitor all...

    UDC Check In

    Thanks for the update. We're not proactive at all. We just open the door and make the comment, "That's a lot of freight." Shortly there after the dumpster catches fire and leadership complians about the smell and how slow we are.

    At the end of my rope. Rant/advice for a struggling inbound TL

    Be weary of using any metrics that are not specifically Target Corp approved. Even metrics found on Greenfield are woefully inaccurate. We have an inside joke about allotted push times being "0.0". Learn what roles Target has defined. Do yours first, then everyone else's second. Then follow up...

    How are y’all’s stores?

    We're not organized which makes it exponentially worse. Our leadership often ask other team members who is on and off schedule. They plan the truck unload after they open the door.
