    Archived Asking EVERY guest about RedCards

    I just say 'are you saving 5% with your red card today' after I have greeted them. They either say 'yes', 'no' or 'what's that?' If they say yes then I smile and move on. If they say no I smile and move on. If they ask what it is I explain the debit option and the perks it gives. I refuse to be...

    Archived The Breakroom's Wall of Stupid TMs

    So stupid! How did he think he wasn't going to get caught?

    Archived Why do people care so much about what they do at work?

    Please come back and tell is how smoothly your life is going when people like us (cashiers, hardlines, soft lines etc) in all stores stop doing our jobs. You might notice us then....

    Archived RedCards are REAL

    So tired of red cards. I was actually top conversion two weeks ago and now have had 1 in the last two weeks. It's luck of the draw really.

    Archived RedCards are REAL

    We were told at our store that surveys were no longer being mentioned at all. We can't point them out and we don't circle and sign them anymore.

    Archived That awesome moment...

    That awesome moment when you're asked to zone One Spot and you are nearly finished when a bratty little kid comes by, grabs random things off of the shelves and when his mom calls to him he dumps them all onto one shelf ruining all you have done. Just when you think your faith in all humanity is...

    Archived Just thought I'd vent.

    Ugh I get so mad! I had a woman with a $100 purchase the other day. She had so many coupons ($2.50 coupons for baby food including jars that only cost $0.50, $5.00 coupons for ANY pillsbury product so she grabbed cooking dough that was on sale for $1.50 etc) and my GSTL made me take them all...

    Archived What do you eat at work?

    I generally being a ton of water, carrots and cheese strings. Sometimes I will grab a turkey sandwich, banana walnut slice from Starbucks and on those days I hate myself I will get a pizza and regret it immediately! I generally work 8 hour shifts so I can't just not eat. I would probably pass out!

    Well I guess our Target is slow. Our Doritos are in the chip aisle!

    Archived Target to Reissue REDcards with MasterCard Chip and PIN

    I've used them in Europe before. It's just like the swipe and using a pin except that you have a chip that is uniquely yours and then a pin that goes along with it. It's harder, darn near impossible, for people to replicate the chip. I had a guy before refuse to swipe his card because he...

    Archived Target to Reissue REDcards with MasterCard Chip and PIN

    I heard about this on Friday. It's starting in 2015. Hopefully this means that there will be more trust in Target and people will stop acting like I was responsible for the breech personally.

    Archived Best Team Survey Time

    I am so angry about this survey. I was pulled off cash just after I started today and my GSTL was sitting right beside me the entire time. How can you answer honestly when they are sitting there breathing down your neck? I just put neutral for most stuff.

    Can we hope that someone steps in who has actually worked retail in their life?

    Archived Lights out!

    They do call it power hour, though it's silly because we could be dead then but crazy busy the next hour. It makes no sense, some days we have too many cashiers and some days it's too few. Thursday we were pretty slow but had 5 cashiers. Sunday was crazy busy and we had 3 cashiers during prime...

    Archived YAY!!! New Card Readers! Yay!!!

    They work a lot smoother, which I'm glad of. I'm also glad they have the chip and pin option. I wanted to yell at a father yesterday when he let his screaming and bratty four year old son yank repeatedly on the pen. Are you kidding me? They are new, can't you control your kid? See, this is why...

    Archived Lights out!

    We are allowed to clean up our work area and then we have to stand at the top of our lane and wait for a guest to come by. It drives me crazy, I could be far more useful than that and it makes time crawl!

    Archived Lights out!

    Today was almost completely dead, we had five cashiers and there was generally at least 2 waiting for a guest. It's ridiculous since on Sunday when we were swamped we had to deal with having 3+ guests in our lines since everyone available was on cash. I feel like they aren't planning well...

    Archived Car vs Target

    Every time I donate I have to be tilted back with an ice pack on my neck or I get dizzy and pass out. I sit and drink juice and eat crackers/cookies after for 30 minutes. I'm glad she wasn't harmed.
