Well, I put in my two weeks' notice. I finally found a full time job where I won't have to deal with asshole couponers, clopens, or the never-ending Red Card bullshit. I will miss the friends I've made at my store, but I'm glad to be moving on. I'm grateful to The Break Room for its support...

What's the procedure for giving a notice at Target?

My primary work center is cashier, but I've been working probably 50-75% of my shifts in Food Ave lately. How long do you have to work in a new work center until you get the pay raise?

A while back, one of the team leaders asked me if I'd be interested in moving up at Target. No specifics, just "Are you interested in moving up at Target?" I said yes, because I want money and I'm tired of working two part time jobs. Well, I didn't hear anything else about it. Fast forward...

I'm very curious about the cash office. Is that what they mean when they say "LOD, I'm ready for 239"? Also, what happens in the cash office. Does the GSA just count out money for the registers and then count and put the money back at the end of the night? Does the LOD have to be in the room...

This year will be my first Halloween at Target. I work as a cashier and Guest Service TM. What is working the Halloween season like? Is it really busy, or just normal? I imagine that we'll sell a lot of candy and costumes. Is all of October pretty busy, or is there just a big push right...

Hey, does anyone know if there's going to be a big school supplies sale coming up soon? I know that crayons were really cheap last week, but what about the licensed notebooks, folders, backpacks, etc? Since the real BTS rush hasn't started yet, it seems likely to me that there would be some...

I hate coupons and couponers, especially when there are a lot of them. Extreme couponers are the worst. As a cashier, these a**holes are my nemeses. I thought it might be therapeutic (maybe even fun?) to start a thread about coupons and their users/abusers. I have a good story for today...

I might be cross training to work in Starbucks. What's a typical day there like? What can I expect from training and working there?

At my store, each register is supposed to have: 1. a pen 2. extra register tape and coupon paper 3. 2-year replacement plans/2-year service plans 4. bags 5. cleaner and paper towels 6. brown paper bags for wine 7. sticker handles for paper towels/toilet paper (However, we always have plenty...

If you have a BA in business, business management, accounting, or human resources, are you eligible to apply for a TL or ETL job? Do you have to have an MA in business or a related area to be eligible for a "management" position?

What exactly does a GSA and a GSTL do? Can a cashier eventually get promoted to one of those jobs? Are they full time, and does anyone know approximately what they pay?

I see lots of those cute Spot stuffed animals wearing a variety of seasonal and themed outfits in my ETLs' offices, and I know that you get them for job recognition. As a cashier, do I have a chance of ever earning one of these? Or are they just for the higher ups?

So ... red cards. I managed to get one yesterday. I couldn't believe it. I was lucky enough to encounter a guest who actually wanted one who had a blank check on her. But as we all know, the red cards are really hard to sell right now. Has anyone been having any luck? What lines have you...

So, everyone knows that hours really suck right now. My supervisors tell me that they will start to pick up in March. Is this true? Will summer be a busy time? When I can expect to start getting some substantial hours?

This may be because Target (at least my store) does not always do a good job of communicating with its TMs, and/or because I am a super anxious person, but I am always paranoid that I am going to make a mistake that will land me in serious trouble. I've only been working here for a few months...

As a cashier, I interact with guests basically nonstop. I understand that the "vibe" is very important, and that Target wants repeat customers. So, I would never want to do anything to make a guest feel that I was suspicious, hostile, or unfriendly. But, it's hard to come off as friendly and...

Any one know what to do with those little Lullaby Rewards coupons that say 10% off items still on your (baby) registry? I can never get those things to work correctly. Is there a special procedure you have to do for them? Thanks!

So, a lady asked me if she could return foundation the other day, and I said she could as long as it was unopened. She said "but how will I know if it's the right color?" She went and asked guest services after checking out, and they told her she could return it. I don't know if she made it...

Hey guys! I just got hired three weeks ago as a seasonal cashier. I'm hoping to stay on as permanent part time, because I really like Target and my coworkers. Things have been pretty challenging, but I'm starting to get the hang of things and am getting more confident. I've been enjoying...
