    Archived Black Friday 2014

    I worked last BF. Not having a choice, I made it a point to request to work open (thank god my store didn't open til 1am as opposed to at 6 or 8 on Thanksgiving). It was the easiest as far as childcare for my daughter went. Nothing easier than babysitting a sleeping child, then giving them...

    I'm Lost! The REDCard Thread

    It's literally a local only bank. They have 5 branches in my town and the next town over. That's it.

    I'm Lost! The REDCard Thread

    It could be your bank also. Certain smaller banks have issues getting approved for the debit. Not sure why. One of my co-workers applied for the debit with me and it was denied. When I asked my GSTL why it was denying him, he looked at the check and told me that specific bank always got denied.

    Archived TMSC closed?

    Just a little update. I called TMSC again and got through. Only to be given another number. Called that number only to be given ANOTHER number, that my daycare assistance people need to call themselves. Seriously? What happened to the good old days where you could get a simple printout that...

    Archived TMSC closed?

    It says "Term" for my status but doesn't have any dates other then my hire date. I'm going to call the number again on Monday. I haven't had a chance to sit down and do it since the other day.

    Archived TMSC closed?

    I was at my old store today and they gave me the number. It's not really a question, I just need an official document stating that I no longer am employed by Target and what my last date of work was. It's for my daycare assistance. I'll try again tomorrow and if I get the same recording...

    Archived TMSC closed?

    So I need to get a letter from Target saying I no longer work there, and when my last day was. But when I called the TMSC number (800-394-1885) I'm getting a recording saying that it's closed, and to call back during business hours.. Mon-Fri 8-6. Ummmm it's 1:30 in the afternoon. Does it...

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

    People react sympathetically all around when I've mentioned that I used to work for Target. I had my appointment to re-certify my childcare assistance (have to redo it whenever changing employers) and when I mentioned how I was working for Target, but had to seek elsewhere, she was like...

    Archived Go Out With A BANG!

    I sooo would have loved to have done this. One day I was on Guest Service, and 3 ETLs stood at the end of the counter talking ish about one of the other ETLs, a few TMs, gossiping, talking about random stuff. For no less than half an hour. I was trying to listen in without being obvious, but...

    Archived Cashier Breaks

    I tried that at my store. Since we were allowed to have it for months, then suddenly it was.. get a note. My argument was that they want us to talk up the red card, cartwheel, the survey, beg for 9's and 10's and so forth and so on, with every guest, that we should be allowed to have water...

    Archived Cashier Breaks

    I always timed my 15 from when I walked by the timeclock. Just like taking my 30. As far as not having water at the register, with it being summertime and pretty hot, all you need to do is get a doctor's note. All I did was email my primary doc, explain that I needed a note to keep water at...

    I would have loved to snag a walkie, hide in the parking lot and occasionally blasted this lol

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

    That is also a good point and one I won't argue with. I fully understand that my biggest obstacle was my availability, or lack of. BUT, they knew that when they hired me. As well as that I needed to keep a certain average in hours to keep my childcare. Had they told me then, what they started...

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

    We hired a sh*t ton of people. And that was one of the points I brought up when I was in tears in the ETL's office over my 19 and 12 hour weeks. "If you can't give the people that have been here hours, why hire all these new ones" And I got that same tired answer " they have open...

    Archived Cashier Breaks

    I have to admit that as a cashier, I definitely took those "restroom" breaks, just to get away. Especially when I got scheduled for one of those ridiculous 5.75 hour shifts. It wasn't even that I wanted to go text. I just needed a 5 minute breather away from the BS. Generally I only did it...

    Archived Discount no longer works on giftcards?

    I was completely bummed about this. Back before I was planning on leaving, I had plans to start stockpiling Disney gift cards to use for a family vacation in 2016. Doing the math, I would have saved over $600 on the resort package alone if I was getting 15% off the cards. Boo =( Oh well, I...

    Archived Defective merchandise

    Aren't we allowed to hold product at guest service just like a guest hold? I was told we could at my store. I know that's not the point of this thread but just wondering if the ETL that said we could was just talking out his... well ... you know lol.

    Archived Changing Availability

    If you cut back your availability, they might give you a lot less hours than you'd like as well. Someone I know did that, and they started scheduling her one day a week.

    I'm Lost! 4th of July holiday pay question

    You should. I got time and a half for Veterans Day (I think it was Veterans Day) and that was less than month after I started.

    Archived First Cashier Shift Was Today!

    Retail Girl pretty much summed it up. The bags just suck, but they way she described is the easiest way to deal with them. What I also do when I have the extras that stick together is I hang them where the big bag rolls go. I open them and hook them on the side. That gives me an extra bag...
