If someone were to ask me what I hate about my job, I would say its not the pay, not the hours, not the people I work with, it's that damn walkie talkie screaming at me every few minutes "BACKUP CASHIERS TO THE FRONT!!!" I work at the other end of the store from where the registers are and it...

I know Target recently changed the policy so we no longer get a discount when we buy "entertainment" gift cards, like restaurants, Disney, etc. But yesterday I bought an AT&T prepaid phone card and did not receive my discount. Is this something new? I don't consider a phone card a "gift card"'

Mutt goofs off all day and only sells 1 Ipad in electronics. The guest buys a case with it. Jeff works hard and sells 20 Ipads and half of the guests buy a case with it. At the end of the day Mutt is praised on the walkie for having an AAR (accessory attachment ratio) of 100%. Jeff is called...

I was always told that team members could not have a cell phone in their pocket, that we had to leave the phone in our locker and could only use it on break or lunch. All the team leads/ETL's ignored this and carry their phones with them. Recently someone said we can now carry them so we...

I depend on target for my living...it's my only job. I want 40 hours a week and can work anytime they need me 24 hours a day 7 days a week.. After Christmas they cut me down to 28 hours a week. 2 weeks ago they got rid of most of the temporary workers that they had hired for Christmas, so I...

What is the exact policy on returning laptops and Ipads? The Target policy says the item has to be "new and unused"........ So if a guest opens a laptop, looks at it for 5 seconds. and then decides they don't like it can they return it? Technically it's "unused" but the package is open so...

I was just curious if people in charge at the Target headquarters read the breakroom? It would be interesting to know if a TM has ever mentioned a problem on here and then the problem got fixed because an executive read about it? I know we all talk to each other on here but if management were...

My question is: who at the store has the authority to fire you? There is an ETL that hates me and I'm sure they would like to see me go. But as far as I know the STL has no problem with me. So if the ETL wanted to fire me, could they? Or is it up to the STL? How does the firing process work...

Anyone have any interesting inside info on Black Friday 2012? Are we opening at midnight again? Last year I found out on the web, NOT from my Target store, that we were opening at midnight! Us sales floor peons are usually the last to be told about anything important... :)

Just looking at the aisles at Target it looks like we carry a lot of different movies. But when a guest asks for a certain movie, a lot of times we don't carry it. I know Target has limited shelf space and cannot carry every movie there is, but we could carry a lot more than we do if the same...

Ever time you ring up an item the register makes a little beeping noise. Normally you dont look at the screen after every item is rung up you just listen for the beeps. For instance if the guest has a whole stack of candy bars you normally don't look at the screen after each candy bar is rung...

Has this ever happened to you? You do something at work, and some TL or ETL comes along and says "You can't do that, it's against Target Company Policy." Then you find out later it's NOT a company policy. Or, the opposite...they say you HAVE to do something because its "Company Policy" and you...

This is one of those catch-22 situations. Sales are down at a lot of Target stores because of the economy. So the store cuts our hours to save money. So then sales go down even more because of not enough team members on the floor to help guests find what they need. Then because there are less...

When you take the survey they say its anonymous, you don't have to give your name and no one will know who you are. But then they ask questions like "whats your store number" , "what department do you work in", how many years have you worked at Target"' etc etc. By the time you answer all...
