    Restroom responsibility mandatory!

    Are your guys's stores demanding that all employees clean the bathrooms each time they go in there? I mean I get it, all employees are responsible for the overall cleanliness of the store. But am I little off base thinking that we shouldn't be responsible for cleaning the restrooms? They been...

    Leadership Pet Peeves

    Okay, I thought of another one. This one is pretty scummy. This one kind of involves Target as a company as a whole, but leadership and HR don't really help in this matter. I've witnessed throughout the years where they basically bully our challenged fellow team members to have breakdowns or...

    Leadership Pet Peeves

    I think someone else has already kind of mentioned this? But when multiple team leads are working on one vehicle, and it's an easy one too. It will still take them three times longer than what it should have. They'll leave trash all over the place, improperly stock product and then they'll want...

    Leadership Pet Peeves

    Okay, I got another one. I don't know why I didn't think of this before? A team lead or ETL whoever, will do a process in the most optimal circumstances, with the most help needed that is never actually given in any real circumstance. We've been having one person throw a truck lately for the...

    Leadership Pet Peeves

    What are some of your guys's pet peeves when it comes to management/hr? I'll throw some of mine out there. It will probably come off as some sort of incoherent rambling, but oh well. I'm not going to throwing all of management under the bus either, but mostly. There has been a few decent...

    New Truck schedule?

    There's been murmurings at my store that we're going to go to 2 weeks on 2 weeks off of trucks?! Before the holiday season we consistently have gotten 7-8 trucks a week, now with the Christmas season we pretty much get a double every other day. There talking about implementing this in December...

    Management Rant & The Cost Of It

    I've worked at Target for 10-plus years. I've seen a lot of good people come and go, also experienced many idiotic corporate Kool-Aid, practices, buzzwords, and so on, throughout the years. When I first started I can honestly say, that management as far as a big box store retailers goes, it was...

    R.I.P. Inbound

    Does anyone here think they'll eventually just phase out inbound team? We're getting less a less hours every week. Even though when we come in, almost every vehicle is still there completely full. So before we even start the days unload, we have to stock all of yesterday's truck. And a handful...

    Logistics Inbound Madness

    One of my main issues with modernization is that, the one team aspect is completely gone, if it was even there to begin with. Before there was well defined roles and tasks, when one team's job was done they would support another area. Now basically each area has a ghost crew staff and under...

    Logistics Inbound Madness

    Most people don't know how to make bale or refuse to learn. Hell, most people don't even know the right way to lay the cardboard in the baler! They lay it in all sideways so you can sit there and jab at it so you can get the wire through. That leaves the handful of people that consistently...

    Logistics Inbound Madness

    This is kind of a questionnaire / rant for inbound team. I personally believe that unloading the truck should be the simplest process. But since modernization has fully blossomed, it's been the most convoluted mess ever! Back when we had a dedicated overnight team, we would unload a truck that...

    Archived The Young, Inexperienced, The Fanatical

    I've been at Target for 11 years, and in that time I have definitely seen a trend in how Target hires upper management. When I first started a lot of the ETL'S and the store manager we're seasoned veterans of the retail industry, and also had a lengthy career at Target. Not saying that all of...

    Archived We don't sort repacks now?!

    Domestic repacks : bedding, bath, candles, picture frames & lamp, hipa, plastics. And for some unknown reason when one spot tends to reset, all the new transition gets put in that repack as well. Housewares rapacks: housewares, pets, as seen on TV/ sporting goods H&B rapacks: health and beauty...

    Archived We don't sort repacks now?!

    So wasn't the whole point of this new process is to have a longer more detail oriented " live unload "?! Now we're basically throwing anything on any empty vehicle we have, and the higher ups said we don't sort repacks anymore, I just love how this whole thing has just melted down. The thing...

    Archived 5:30am Unload Captain?

    Any GM members asked to come in at 5:30am to get the line set up? These are my other responsibilities. Make sure unload gets done in a timely manner. Tell others GM team members what to stock during the unload. Doesn't this all this sound like responsibilities of a team lead? So am I going to...
