Exactly. I wonder how much extra it costed to offer free shipping during the holidays and to pay SFS to hunt it down and box it up. Wonder how much more product got damaged or went missing since the shit storm of Modernization started. How much money was spent on training new team members non...

Oh, for sure. Depending on your state, you are eligible for under-employment if your hours fall under a certain “expected” amount. So if you’ve been hovering around 35 hours the past 6 months and all of a sudden they cut you to 20, that’s where this would be something to look into. When Target...

“This retailer can’t sink!” “She’s made of unrealistic expectations sir! I assure you she can. And she will. It’s a mathematical certainty.”

I’ve probably lost my temper on every single leader that’s ever been in the store in the 5+ years I’ve been worked at Target. Only once was I given a warning to knock it off. Wouldn’t recommend it as it never really solves anything and if you pick the wrong TL you might regret it. Anytime I do...

Well you’ll be happy to know that Heyday accessories are nothing but repackaged One Spot garbage. I got a pair of Heyday headphones last week and they sound just slightly better than the earpiece AG Bell installed on his first phone. Dollar store headphones sound better than these muffled pieces...

Are you insane?! It’s alright for them to treat another TM like shit because they don’t understand their daily grind? Apologize? Good god...

This is me, except for the student loans. Before I got my apartment, it didn’t seem possible on a Target paycheck to live by myself. But eventually I was “forced” to find an apartment and it’s actually worked out pretty well. I work 35+ hours a week and make a decent amount an hour for a TM...

Gold. I’m keeping this, lol.

I got a $25 gift card for my five year anniversary this year. Not one “congrats or thank you” from anyone. Better than nothing I guess.

What an amazing deal!

Bingo. Spread those hours out thin and employees, regardless of the hourly rate, won’t hesitate to walk out the door when things get stressful (which is nearly everyday). Especially when they don’t need the money in order to survive. I bet those workers at Costco making $20/hr to start arent...

Huddles? What are those. Ever since E2E, I might have gone to 3 in the past year. Now they just have hour long push parties. I’m the last to know about any changes, big or small.

This is kinda like the question in the BTS every year. But yes, if I was offered a job doing what I’m doing now but at a different company, I would leave in a heartbeat. I would even take a small pay cut to get the hell out of Target. The only thing that has kept me there so long is the fact...

If you had all team members running on all cylinders and competent management, maybe E2E would work. But that is very rare, even if it is the expectation. Another problem is that management is too afraid to tell their higher ups that the E2E process is garbage and thus things will never...

I couldn’t have said this any better myself. You hit the nail on the head. I wish I could show that hack Cornell this post and see his reaction.

Same here. We cannot be forced to leave before our scheduled time. Yeah, they ask us all the time if we want to, but we can simply say no and keep on working. And I don’t give a flying f$&! about the STL’s financial responsibilities.

All the team leads in our store are having a meeting today. What makes this strange/interesting is that they haven’t had a meeting like this in months. The receiver said she has a meeting today with team leads too and she told me she never goes to meetings like this. Something has to be going on.

Same story at my store. The schedule is a joke. Market barely comes clean on truck at the end of the day - and that’s not counting dry goods. I’ve never been so stressed out at this place. Since E2E started, I’ve called off probably 6 times. Just to get a break from the madness. Before that, I...

Same at our store. The only bottles we "sold" were the ones people got for free with the game. Nobody cares about these things. It's ironic that we got way more for this promotion that no one cares about than the Fallout one where they could have sold as many bottles as they could make. They...

Might be one of the best posts I've seen in a long time. You hit the proverbial nail on the head and I could not agree more.
