If I believed I was better I would say so. I don't. All I'm saying is I TRY. I'm not talking about every Target employee being horrible (I have met some of the best people while I have been a tm) but it is because I try, my expectation when I am a guest is that the employee at least try to show...

Good example of explaining and showing the guest how he would know he was wrong since he clearly was and wouldn't let it go, even though Im sure it would be easier to be snarky or argue with him. And good job at standing your ground :)

Yes! I was hoping you would notice how amazing and perfect I was at my job! Gag me with a spoon!!! I am merely stating what I see, never said it is on a daily basis or that I am a supreme retail worker. I have said in previous postings that I do not like retail, but if I'm getting paid to do a...

I appreciate your post. I may come off as hard up on certain retail workers and that may be because I do try to go above and beyond most of the time. Do I have bad days, hell yes. Have I done a less than good job, naturally. But I try my best always. In my late teens and early 20's I was in a...

Understood. I hope I didn't come off snarky in my post to you, i just noticed this happen with me and wanted a cashier's perspective on the deal.

And this makes sense. I'm happy all the cashiers have not forgotten to give me the gift card. But all of them did forget to tell me when I could use it or what its for. Simply telling them that it could be used on the next purchase like you do is perfect. Simple and effective :)

Hi FredPanda3! I would have let her know it bothered you at that time. If you still chat with her, you could always bring it back up in conversation one day and let her know how it made you feel. Some people, when they trust you, will say the craziest things. If you don't vocalize your...

Just curious why they have to question why you handed it to them. It should be you that lets them know what it's for. I say this because (as a guest) before I knew we get a gift card for spending a certain amount of money, a cashier randomly gave me the gift card while ringing me up. I never use...

You are right, education isn't cheap but to be honest most people can at least get financial aid and that can pretty much pay for your first two years. Loans can be taken out and paid later. We do what we have to do. I got my GED and had pretty steady employment throughout my teens and early...

@LimitsEnd Please try not to believe that you have nothing to look forward to if this job doesn't work out, retail is not for everyone. There are so many jobs out there, you just need to find what works for you. What do you enjoy? Are you a gamer, maybe you can work for GameStop. Love animals...

Target definitely keeps you moving, which I love. That is the extent of it. It's retail, and if you aren't looking to move up and be a TL or an ETL, I think the job is best suited for teens, college students, the retired, supplemental income folks, or people who just really love retail. I was...

Tthosehardworkingtms: Know your worth, know you deserve better treatment than that ETL gives. Talking trash about your team is not what a leader should be doing. Flipping out and acting like a 2 year old is not what a leader should be doing. Keep up the good work, tms! Your department is...

I hope your first day went well. There are a lot of things to learn but it will all make sense soon. My first week I was super sore and left work feeling super dehydrated. DRINK WATER. You will need lots of it.

It's hard to say I think this will come in time. You will learn the tricks as you go. I push GM and what I find helpful is to organize my cart by aisles and either bowl them out to their aisles or, say the store is open and you can't have random boxes sprinkled down the aisles, I take all the...

I'm sure by now you are already deep into your orientation so I hope you are enjoying the first day. My orientation was on a different day from my first day of actual training. Orientation was videos and paperwork and training was pretty much shadowing a tm. Depending on the part of the line you...

I will be starting on the flow team and was wondering how often flow are used as backup cashiers? I work in a lower volume store and flow typically stays until 12:30pm-1pm.

Thank you, StockerAce! The 1st guy who interviewed me was my TL, super cool dude, and I believe they said he would be training me so I think it should go well. I had orientation yesterday and really liked the vibe of the logistics team they have in place right now. Always helps ease newbie jitters

Lol Yesss! Terrible song but I liked the movie so ;)

Thanks everyone!

Thank you! :) I will be coming in at 4am, our store doesn't have an overnight crew (HR said it is a lower volume store)
