Our district didn't negotiate. We've had several TMs deny offers because it was only a few more $ than they were currently making. TLs had a base starting point at around $12-14, Sr TLs at $17-23 based on experience and/or education. Make sure your hourly pay goals match up with reality. I've...

She was - but she also gained control of Market too. She had to do both as Sr.TL. I just went back to visit and she is currently going through the ETL interview process (ETL HL) and she doesn't have a degree. Our district doesn't require a degree for internal hires.

You are misinformed. Why would two of the hardest ETL positions have the fewest qualification requirements? LOG consumes many roles of the store and makes up for over 60% of store performance. I've seen HL and SL ETLs without a degree. And our Sr.Merchant, who was being groomed for STL, only...

Don't get too caught up in people making more money. Just ask "what did he/she do differently?" Sometimes the answer is as simple as putting an application in or how the person applied (i.e. Apply online at the district level vs going to a store and applying for ETL). I've seen several qualified...

My STL was younger than me, I was 27 at the time and she was already the STL at another store for 2 years. I've seen people become STL after one 18 month ETL rotation. These were all successful LOGs. I was prepped for the STL interviews at 12 months - then I told them I was leaving.

I know using "email" is code for you didn't make it. For example, I would say "thank you for your time, we are interviewing more applicants so check your email for further information." If you were hired I would say so right away - pending drug test results. But I was an ETL so I was the final...

I agree with @rocket99 - suck it up buttercup. You're complaining about 12 hour days -it's a blessing it's not 15 hrs. Welcome to working longer than needed or having no resources to complete the tasks passed down from corporate. If you're just at your training store then hang in there - your...

A lot of goals are based off the best performing store in the group. They figure if they can do it so can the other stores. So if RedCard numbers are high, that's because another store is reaching that goal and they expect the same results from other stores - without taking common sense into...

If you think your leadership is bad then imagine the demands they get from their leadership. ETLs don't make up RedCard goals. This is how Target works - TM is pushed by TL, TL is pushed by ETLs, ETLs are pushed by STL, STL is pushed by DTL, DTL is pushed by GroupVp, group vp is pushed by...

@anonymousflowmember - that bike was a waste of space. Ours looked like they were put together by a 1st grader. I think we sold 1.

Worst: Target Ticket, pfresh, early morning logistics for 50million stores, Pizza Hut, VIBE, and open Thanksgiving day . Best: Cartwheel, myDevices, RedCard benefits.

@mrknownothing - there it is! This sign is perfect. I love the half man half woman. Maybe someday I can take a shit next to a beautiful woman and she'll sink my battle ship.

Maybe someday we won't have gender specific bathrooms. We have men becoming women, women becoming men, people with tits and a penis, etc. Someday the bathroom sign will just say "Fuck it, we give up - this is a room to put shit and piss in - don't look at your neighbor and enter at own risk."...

Well you can look at it like this: continue working your ass off or get an HR job somewhere else making the same pay and working less hours. That's what our HR and STL did.

No backroom bathroom? Can you use the other guest bathrooms? They probably could write you up for not following instructions but using a bathroom is not worthy of such harsh action. If I have to shit and the stalls are taken, you can bet I'd be in the family bathroom. Or you could just shit on...

No - a position doesn't have to be open and becoming more global benefits both the store and the TM. So that's a weird response from HR. It doesn't take long to train for SF. You could have your own ETL train you, ask another ETL, or another TL if you can get some hours. Or sign up for a swap...

Sometimes only ETL-Logs/replens or someone who has led flow can understand this. We often fought the battles alone and were given expectations that required a miracle or a wizard.

How often are your flow TLs recognized? My TLs got zero respect from other ETLs because they weren't visible. We were overnight so other ETLs didn't know what they did. For my store they were passed over for promotion every time. Only me and the STL fought for them. Sr.TL isn't your cap at all...

Not about the color, more about the material. I was referring to the typical khaki material that isn't breathable and the sweat just sits there and stews. As an ETL I wore dress pants but as a TM I had khaki(cotton) pants that didn't breathe.

My wife asks me all the time ( silently) if there is blood on her butt. Never is but I'd hate to wear khaki and it happens. I thought khakis didn't give much breathing for my boys. There were days when my balls were so sore that I had to dip them in butt butter. So all around Khakis suck -...
