    Anyone quit Target for much better retail stores (Macy's, Kohls, & Primark), and even better opportunities like for pursuing jobs in teaching

    I quit to manage another retail store. Best move ever. Since I retired, when I show up at my previous stores, they welcome me with open arms. I guess that's my legacy. Target was okay. ETL's can be scary having little to no oversight as to how they manage if at all they know how. I've seen team...

    Service & Engagement Squaretrade being pushed on furniture, toothbrush heads, and other silly items

    Square Trade is a big profit for Target. We are supposed to pause to ask our guest each time we are prompted. But you know, despite that, it is a annoyance most times (as it is an annoyance to reply to the POS prompt that they did in fact, really, yes, they just have one head of lettuce as if it...

    New ETL

    As an incoming ETL-HR, what would you like me to know? Over the years I worked at Target on the Sales Floor, as a Groceries FA, as Front End GSA, and now, well I have no clue what I am anymore, one thing stands out: We all wonder where ETL’s hide. Why, when we see them, they just walk by as if...

    Service & Engagement Told to do another job because I voiced a safety concern

    I don't know how or why two identical posts came about. It was not intentional. My concern wasn't to complain. My concern was that instead of addressing the issue that this particular register is unsafe for our guests and TM's, they just yanked me out and put somebody else in that unsafe...

    Service & Engagement Told to do another job because I voiced a safety concern

    No, I love people and always enjoyed working self-checkout. It has nothing to do with that nor is it hurt feelings. It is about being safe and that is a relative issue. If you think measures taken to be safe is way out of proportion to the need, then you will see me as if my feelings are hurt...

    Service & Engagement Told to do another job because I voiced a safety concern

    Our footprint of our 8-register self-checkout has a register directly in front as you enter its floor. The register straight ahead on the way in has a wall less than a foot to its right. And it has a shelf of candy on that wall leaving a 3-foot space between the register and the shelf. If that...

    COVID-19 Coronavirus...

    Well this is neither here nor there, but I think some are shopping as a rebellious sort of thing. Don’t tell me not to shop shopping. I was at a Home Depot to get a specific light bulb for a specific kitchen light that went out and I needed light. As I walked along some end caps seeing what I...

    LOA

    I took LOA because I am vulnerable to fair poorly if I catch COVID-19 - in fact, sadly, chances are I'd probably die because of chronic heart and lung conditions. I was going to quit but then they offered 30 days paid. Well that is done, and now I am on unpaid LOA. Seems like the 30-days did not...

    COVID-19 Coronavirus...

    My LOA will be over the 20th. or 21st I can't remember. I called the store to inform them that I will continue LOA without pay until further notice. Yes, it is too early to return I think, that is if you are vulnerable of the deadly end COVID-19 may cause. It will be financially devastating however.

    COVID-19 Paid leave for 30 days

    I tried this email link only to find it is not deliverable. I did logon to Target's Benefit website and was able to upload a document to them.

    COVID-19 Who asked if we would be willing to take the risks vital in keeping the community supplied

    Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar’s husband is in the hospital with COVID-19. She said that John started to feel sick … and like so many others who had the disease, he thought it was just a cold. Yet he immediately quarantined himself in case and stopped going to his job teaching in Baltimore. She...

    COVID-19 Paid leave for 30 days

    I sent an email to my doctor and got this reply: The CDC specifically asks employers to "not require a healthcare providers note"... because they are busy … and although I asked for a note to be excused because of pre-existing conditions that have me at risk, the content of the letter is that I...

    COVID-19 Paid leave for 30 days

    I been calling the ...5850 number a couple of times since this morning and was on hold a long time and quit. I decided to just remain on the line and wait: I called at 12:30 CT and it is now 2:50 CT and I am still waiting... does anyone know a better way to request "stop work"?

    COVID-19 Cart attendant Coronavirus Risk

    I am a high risk team member and reluctantly took the LOA. As far as cart attendant goes, and I pushed carts, even now as I am lead, you need to be extra careful cleaning up human extractions. Do all you can to be safe. I would wear gloves, yet that really doesn't work out well because you need...

    Should we be getting OT

    If you get OT, rather if you are offered OT, take it. As many "many" have become financially compromised, selling sheets, TV's, clothes, even Easter items, well, it will become a dying sale. Hours I assume will go down to nothing as we have never seen before. Few people will be buying...

    TM only shopping hours

    Recently a guest accused my store team members buying TP and hand sanitizer while they go without. I seen such talk on the internet. This, I am sure, will only escalate that conversation. When I arrive at work before the store is open, I work until mid-afternoon. By that time everything I need...
