    Archived Target pulling out of Canada

    No i was a new ETL directly from Canada. Never had any ties to the US. As per ETLs in the US, you guys are business as usual as far as i can tell.

    Archived Target pulling out of Canada

    I never had a problem here with Language, being outside of Quebec we were an English Primary store, and so were all of our guests. Of course a lot of us can speak French if need be, but it was understood that the general communication was to be done in English. Work today is a little hard, not...

    Costco is doing fine here as far as i know, they just changed to Mastercard and booted out Amex which was a big move for them.

    Archived Target pulling out of Canada

    It did come as a big shock to us, and one thing that i have to say i am most disappointed as is the Canadian Guest these past few days. A TM from Ontario captured it quite perfectly in this Reddit post: http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2015/01/16/target-layoffs-job-cuts_n_6486118.html There are...

    Archived Bye Bye MAX FSTL.... Hello MY TIME........

    This sounds similar to WFM (Work Force Management) that is used in Canada.

    Archived How strict is your store/HR on dress code?

    We follow the team colors pretty well. Shorts are only allowed for Brand attendants during the summer months. Jeans are definitely a no no. We have always been told dress for the position you want to be in.

    Archived The Next-Gen Consoles Avalibilities?

    Archived Positive Target Canada News.

    Can't speak for them but in my store the day was very positive. Opened to a line of about 100 to 150 people and apart from 2 or 3 everyone calmly walked into the store. Tvs and our electronics dept were the most popular. We sold out of Apple products super quick. Had no AP issues, other than a...

    Archived So How did Black Thurs. Go For You?

    We opened at 7am and had a good but relaxed day. Counted about 200 at the door when we opened and it ran very smoothly. Biggest line was of course Electronics but we didn't have any issues other than stock. Had one incident of merch recovery. Someone must have tried to take off the Spider Wrap...

    Archived Can someone tell me what are the ETL and STL core roles?

    From a lot of the threads I'm reading it seems likea lot of our US sows don't have the best leadership teams in place. I am an ETL here in Canada and my core values are the wellbeing of my team. My role as explained to me is mainly over watch of my teams and ensuring that everyone is...

    Archived Anyone else hate the morning STL/ETL/TL "walk" they do?

    It seems like you guys have a very different system than we use in Canada. The morning walks in our store are not the leadership team in its entirety but like one STL walking an ETL or an ETL walking a TL or TL walking a TM or something in that mixture. The STLs and ETLs have meetings off stage...

    Archived Anyone else hate the morning STL/ETL/TL "walk" they do?

    Sorry to play the otherside but in my opinion the morning walks are super useful and pretty satisfying for both parties involved. It might be that your STL/ETL/TL are just not taking the full advantage of what those walks are about. Sure there will be some issues pointed out but those are ops...

    Thanks King. I'll definitely pm you if I come across anything that I could use a hand with.

    Archived So anyone else's stores lose TMs as a result of the PS4 launch?

    Well done. I definitely feel like that is the right thing to do, and it is really selfish of them to hurt the store's numbers, which means hurting the team just to get something for themselves by sneaking around.
