    MEGATHREAD Hang Me (The Softlines Thread)

    My theory on "edging," by Miss Anne Elk*: It looks crazy. It takes up way too much space. It's nigh on impossible to put any pants in or get any pants out of a set of "edged" pants. It makes plus sizes look even larger (and scarier). If corporate wanted these things hung that way they'd send...

    I don't understand why any employee feels like they're not "under a microscope."

    MEGATHREAD 2018-2019 Store Modernization Megathread

    Meanwhile - as the quote-y quotes go, my TL keeps telling me, "Look, it's working at all the other stores." I work at being a team player in softlines, but when 1/3 of my hours are consumed by operator duty, serving guests needs and cashiering, how the hell am I supposed to push/zone and get...

    I have - thanks. Sadly Kronos is not always up to date at our store.

    I use Target Auth Services - http://target.com/myschedule This will automatically redirect you to the link @NKG provided. Because there are just too damn many websites for everything, if I can remember what it is, that's what I use. I wish Target understood how useful a real portal would be...

    They were testing how low they could push hours for many processes. 27.5 hours is the new normal. Never again will we see 40 after every wayward hour is gobbled in the next few weeks. No 30 minute breaks. No healthcare for a majority of their workforce. They'll more than break even on the $15...

    I never knew End to End was different from Modernization. Because they aren't.

    TL's are not the enemy. They've become the plantation overseers. Still, it's tough to feel sorry for the folks who maintain 40 hours when the rest of us will never get more than 25 hours a week. While I sympathize with the awkward position you've been put in, at least you can keep your...

    I was with you until "(softlines not included as I don’t know how they do shit these days)." Dang it! This is seriously the highest hurdle for us and why Modernization is not working at my store. It's gumming up the works for everyone. Even the space for Softlines sort has been cut by yet...

    And 20 of those 100+ hours of workload get siphoned off back up cashiering. The thing about price change that only those who've done it understand is that each DPCI can be a single item or 300+ pieces scattered around the entire physical store - on the floor and in multiple backstock places...

    I have read all 124 pages of this thread and one thing has come into sharp focus for me. Every district, if not every store has a different directive on how Modernization is supposed to work. Our store was told in no uncertain terms that Inbound does 100% of the breakout. So, is that just our...

    Congratulations on getting some of Modernization to work. What I don't see in your list of duties and expectations is the Softlines breakout. How are you handling that?

    I think we should be able to outright reject 35 medium grey flannel bottoms as soon as they're unpacked. Slap a Mr. Yuk sticker on those repacks and send that crap right back from whence it came.

    Corporate An Address

    Umm... It's not a "mall" per se. From Wikipedia: "Nicollet Mall is a twelve-block portion of Nicollet Avenue running through downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States. It is the shopping and dining district of the city, and also a pedestrian and transit mall. Along with Hennepin Avenue to...

    I don't do SFS or OPU. Thing is, as a Softlines worker I'm now spending at least 20% of my time helping those folks find SL. I'm supposed to be pushing SL freight but again, I spend 25% of my time helping guests find things and being helpful in general. I'm supposed to be pushing SL freight...

    I have 2 coworkers with bad breath. One of them is also a close talker. Step back, you say? I did that the other day and stepped back from the fitting room all the way to SL clearance during our short conversation.

    It seems like some items are sent to stores for safekeeping. Like the DC has run out of room so they'd best send them to stores. And if that store has a teeny-tiny backroom then double or triple that order! Recent gaffes: 30 small girls swimsuits - all the same DPCI, in late August. 2 gross...

    Corporate Dear Corporate...

    Dear Corporate: Please, oh pretty please give the responsibility and hours for Softlines sorting back to Softlines. We haven't gotten any product out of the BR for a week. Yup, we have over 40 pallets of unsorted Softlines just sitting there clogging everything up. Or, did you intend for the...

    Many of the changes seem rooted in magical thinking. I wish they'd share with us what the actual big-picture goals are. I feel like I'm one of many subjects taking part in a sadistic thought experiment.
