On point. I'll honestly say that Spot hired me in a time where I couldn't find employment. I know they didn't do it for a favor, in fact I know they were encouraged to because of certain tax breaks. That being said, I've worked for three years and I feel like I've been constantly moving. My ETLs...

Wow. Yeah, its just bread sticks. But it starts with bread sticks. We had a kid today leave in cuffs for stealing money. You know how it started? He stole pizza's because he was hungry. If he was coached for that, then he might still have his job. Its just each time, he thought he could get away...

First relax. How you "sell" the Red Card is important to the guest. I never mention Target Red Card. I always call it the "Target Debit Card". When you say it, put a little bit of space into each word and make eye contact with the guest. If the Guest uses a check, say "Would you like me to tell...

I'm willing to play the game. Honestly, I've been doing it for quite a while. Something like this happened to us once before under different leadership. The results was the TL setting us down and reading us best practice, and another ETL telling us that we "were the worst instock team in the...

Heres the thing. I work at a ULV store and I wear many hats. One of those hats say Instocks. I absolutely enjoy being an instock team member. It's a pain in the ass sometimes, but I seem to feel more accomplish at the end of the day than when I'm in any other work center. Its extremely...

Heh, about that. Our STL hates the over head being used for anything but calling for a Guest. Which is fine if we had enough walkies, but we don't. So a couple of people on the flow team get one, but no one else. Kind of ridiculous to have a team member from A run all the way over to F to clear...

People always get so easily offended. Don't get me wrong, its pretty stupid on Target's part, but it will get largely over blown. Twitter will blow up about it, Target will apologize and donate funds to a Manatee Conservation group.

Not sure how wide spread this is, but my store an ULV store began our process this week. First, many of my fellow team members have 2nd jobs. The main issue right now is that their 2nd jobs are not as flexible as they would like. As a result we have a ton of TMs leaving at the same time they...

When you have tons of those cheap box cutters in every drawer, in your couch, by your washer machine and in your vehicle.

I'm going to say this, and I hope I don't get flamed for it. But here is the thing. I live well below the poverty line. I have my own house, my own car, a cell phone, and I pay my own bills. You can argue about where the money is coming from. Is it a tax raise, or a lapse of the stimulus or...

Curious as to how much that bonus was. I'm apparently one of the "golden boys". I'm currently going through college and if I stick through it at Target, I'm sure I'd be able to get an executive position as soon as one opened up.

So, I am sure the answer is "Yes". There is one that kind of bothers me. I've heard that ETLs get bonuses based on meal violations. Not sure if this is true, but the logic is baffling. Why give the ETLs a bonus for making sure TMs take their meal on time? Why no break down bonus to the TM. Show...

One of my favorite ex team members once said "Nu-huh. The whole reason why your momma refused to shave her pits and strapped on those combat boots was so that you can get out there in the snow and push carts." Not sure why he got fired, but he did have a way with words...

We have a new ETL. I love her to death. Shes a great woman and couldn't be any nicer. However, things don't click with her AT ALL. I was working freight out in an aisle and I had a walkie. As she was walking by, the LOD made a call to another TM on the walkie. She stops, looks and me and says...

Not sure how I feel about this. On one hand, our Target Mobile chicks are pretty cute. One of them also works pretty hard towards our red card goal and even helps drives attachments. During really busy times, she'll pitches in and helps out our under staffed electronics team. But what is this...

This is tricky. I would say you are free and clear if they were the TL keys. As I recall, they get a special set that has the door on it. There is no reason he should have given them up to anybody. Yeah, you lost him and the TL might get upset and do something. But I fee he is ultimately...

My TL told me that if it came down and I was running out of time, I could toggle into another batch which would keep it from rolling off and dinging the score.

They use to let me come in and scan outs (when we did 'em) on Saturday because I could easily knock out 1200 scans (if they left me out). It was nice because it would always bring us up into the green. As far as tips, a lot of it will goes with experience. Certain team members are better in...

Sorry, I've been thinking about this all day.
