    Active Shooter Training

    18 yrs ago when I fitst started, I casually walked the store when I could my first week there, noted all the emergency exit doors, then planned how I'd get the hell out of Dodge at a seconds notice incase of robbery or worse.

    Dress code change

    Who the hell wants to shop in a stuffy warm store?? I don't! If not the team members, they should think of the guests!

    You THEN respond with.."this is private property, DUMB ass. You put that thing on NOW, or I'll have you arrested for tresspassing!!!" :):)

    How bad is your workload and backup?

    I got coached once because my department wasn't zoned....that's because I had just spent 4 hours back-up cashier's, because everytime I returned to my department the L.O.D kept pleading and pleading (one of those times CRYING into her walkie mic) for responses on that super crazy Saturday, and...

    Active Shooter Training

    I trained myself for active shooter/robbery scenarios when I first started Target 16 years ago by walking all through the store during my first week there and knowing where every single exit door and portal was/devising which scenarios would constitute which door I'd use to get the heck out of...

    No call no show

    I was on a 12 month probation 10 years ago for excessive call outs/tardiness. I was SO convinced that I wasn't going to pull off 12 months of perfect attendance and prompt arrival that I started saying all of my goodbyes to everyone that first week of the probation!! :) It all worked out....I...

    When TMs Do Not Introduce Themselves

    I would always introduce myself to each new girl/finding out their names on their first days. With MALE tms however, usually weeks (sometimes multiple months) would go by before I'd start trying to remember their names :)

    Bad Key Control call for hotline?

    There was the LOD who one night lost THE set of store keys for almost an hour!! As he was scouring the store during that hour looking for them, he was getting paler and paler as time went on before he found them! Poor guy looked like he had aged 45 MONTHS in just 45 minutes!! :) He aged

    I'm Lost! The Target Dating Thread

    Haaa!! My best TARGET events were off the clock!!! As a Team Member, you haven't had the FULL TARGET work experience until you've had your direct Team Lead drapped across your lap as they're hanging halfway out the rear window of the super-stretch you all are riding in on the freeway with said...

    Is it possible to win an age discrimanation suit ?

    The "O" word (old...40 and above) is almost as bad at Target as the "U" word (union).

    During my first week at Target 15 years ago i made it a point to know EVERY single exit out of that place for that exact reason of active shooter(s£.

    Archived Team Lead

    I only worked at Target part-time, so i could never have been a TL. I saved most of my energies for my full-time job elsewhere. I DID however take along dozens of team members out on my super limo rides with me, so those were my contributions towards high team member morale :):)

    Who recently quit at your store?

    OMG....i remember back in 2004 (when i first started my 13 years at Target) that mgmt use to BEG team members to work as many hours as possible!!! Those first few years there'd be at least one ETL going up and down the salesfloor and approaching team members to get them to offer more availability!

    Archived Breaks

    One time my 15 minute break turned into a 45 minute break in the breakroom because too many beautiful team member girls kept joining me at my table for their lunch breaks as time went on! I finally tore away at 45 minutes with at least 8 of them at my table....had to get back to the salesfloor!

    Archived There needs to be a company wide strike

    A good friend of mine put in her 2 weeks notice today after 11 years. She got a better job with much better pay! Her parents first met at Target AND she met her husband there as well. This whole "modernization" thing is by far the worst thing Target has ever done to itself!

    Archived What happens when a guests calls Corporate to complain?

    Had a guest call corporate on me during my lunch break because i dumped her at my register onto the GSTL. I called the GSTL over and said "here, deal with this" and took off to by then my very overdue lunch. I got back from said lunch and the LOD mentioned it to me, but that's all that happened...
