    I don't think most people yet realize what a terrible state our country has been thrown into. We are literally looking into the eyes of the monster that will bring us to our demise unless something is done about it but doesn't seem like anybody's doing anything. Because of my situation I have...

    Bench advice

    I'm older and thus can look back at my life and what I could have done differently. My advice to you is to NOT be quiet about your accomplishments, quests, and resolutions. If the spirit is inside of you and the drive and ferver present make it known! My little dog comes up to me when...

    Red shirts and Black faces

    I'm not going to say my opinion on whether you're right or wrong about Target's hiring decisions but you are really going into dangerous territory by posting that. ... and I'm not going to reveal my race either. Regardless of what I've seen at Target I'm offended by your post.

    Benefits Bereavement pay

    ROFLMAO! I think there were a couple of etl's back in my day that would have just loved it if I woke up dead! Note that I did not capitalize ETL when referencing those individuals. There were so many at Target that earned and deserved great respect and others that were just... I don't even...

    Will I get fired?

    Are you feeling a bit better now? It certainly would be scary to test positive but try to remember, on the bright side of things, that the strains that people are catching now are very minimal and with luck you'll recover very quickly! Sending good vibes and karma to you!

    Will I get paid during time off for Covid?

    Didn't the post office send you those home test kits? I thought every house in the United States got three of them. Something got really screwed up with my mail and I got a grand total of 15 of the darn things! Each of the boxes has two test kits inside so I've got a grand total of 30 of...

    To that one Team Member - II

    Before you condemn the individual perhaps think that it may be a very critical situation that they are trying to tend to and in the grand scheme of things it's probably taking up only a couple of seconds. That is unless it's a chronic issue with a particular individual. I once took not even...

    To that one Team Member - II

    I used to love to sort through the bullseye department and make everything pretty! I used to go up there and organize that whole area and then pick something of interest up and stand by the front door and say, "wow! look at this!"... Guests would grab things like crazy! It was a lot of fun :)

    Goodbye, and Good Riddance, Spot!

    Yeesh! I can understand you feeling the way that you do. From what I experienced, management made all the difference in the world. When we had poor managers everyone was miserable and couldn't wait to clock out. When managers actually made everything a team effort and a fun place to be I...

    Promoting at Target

    From what I saw in my days there it was always external hires. My speculation on the matter is that internal promotion would come with empathy for those on lower rank because you've been where they've been. Therefore, Target would prefer individuals who have not had to endure what others...

    My fellow TL's are setting me up for failure.

    I really think you've got a gem of an employee there and you should leave him be. If only every store could have some personality and bling like that. I don't mean to attack you in any way whatsoever at all so don't take it the wrong way. You say that your fellow TMS are unkind to you...

    Turnover rate

    Well, our store had the best looking people so I guess yes, there must have been a physical test :-)

    Hello to everyone!

    Hi there! I see you're still here. After I posted my initial introduction two years ago I became terribly ill as a result of radiation (for cancer*) and, after a very long time, Target had to term me, rehirable. I had become so terribly ill that doing even slightest thing was virtually...

    Hello to everyone!

    Yep. And two years later I'm now getting around to saying thank you for the welcome :-D Very severe illness caused me to have to go on extended MLOA. I never got well enough to get back and they had no choice but to term me. I miss my job terribly but not well yet. Cancer treatment...

    Stress

    It all depends on the management at a store and it can vary widely from one season to the next as turnover, even in management is enormous. In my store it took just one really bad apple to pull down morale, which became contagious and infectious through the entire store. Point being that...

    New Year's Eve at Target?

    Y2K confirmed how gullible people are. I've no doubt they've STILL got cases of water abd canned good in their basemets 20 years later.
