    Archived I would like to thank everyone...

    I would like to take the time to thank all current Target TMs, ETLs, TLs, Cashiers, etc. for working on Thanksgiving. Some of you know I left for RadioShack a few months back. I don't regret it too much. My paychecks usually have about an extra 150 bucks on it compared to Target, working the...

    Archived But I was hoping to learn the sales floor....

    If they trained someone to be a TL or GSTL, don't they have to transfer them to a different store? They do at mine...I'm not sure if it's every Target or not. I always found that policy kind of odd. At my old job, if someone got promoted, you sucked it up and took orders from them.

    I'm Lost! The Call In/Sick/Late/NCNS/Attendance Thread

    I just wanted to know what the penalty was for calling in "sick" or whatever excuse they may have too many times. I ask because we have this new guy who has called in 2 times now..and he's been there less than 2 weeks. If he were sick, you'd think it would have been consecutive. But he called...

    Archived Snipsnap

    We had a chat with AP the other day about this. All we were told to look for was the red "Target Mobile" sticker thingy on the bottom of the app coupon. Otherwise, deny it.

    Our H&B department is right across from entertainment. So all I hear is a Toy Story 3 commercial. =/

    Archived Rules regarding talking off the clock

    Exactly. I have a couple of ETLs who go ape crap of answering ANY kind of question while off the clock. Where as a few others just don't care. I don't consider telling a guest where something is "work." I consider it common courtesy. But that's just me. The very first week I worked at...

    Archived Latest You've Stayed After Closing?

    Well, it's only 5 miles to the state line. Not to mention that half those people are on welfare....No offense to anyone who is on welfare here.

    Archived Latest You've Stayed After Closing?

    Just the other night actually. We didn't get out til 1:30 a.m. Back to School sucks for our store. We happen to be on a state line where the other states sales tax is 2 percent higher. So EVERYONE from that state and EVERYONE from our state came to shop at Target for BTS....

    Archived Anyone else got a "Tax Free Weekend" coming up?

    We had outs last month. Without saying EXACTLY what state I live in though, I can say it wasn't that busy because it was right before the 1st of August, so the people on welfare in the area didn't have any money to spend. Last weekend though, the 4th and 5th were AWFUL because school started...

    Archived Changing jobs?

    I've never gotten food ave. I do occasionally get a cashier shift, though. Like, once every 2 or 3 weeks. Though I'm usually scheduled to be on a register at the same time 2 others are scheduled to be on. So I always get pulled off an hour or two into my shift and told to help do reshop for...

    Archived Generation Y and Target

    That's true. Didn't think about that. I did apply at 24 other places in a period of 7 months before I got my job at Target. It's that whole catch about jobs and experience. Younger people, 16 to 20 years old can't get a job because they don't have experience. They can't get experience...

    Archived Silly question

    Mine is the other way around. We have more GM than grocery, but no produce. And reading all the differences is hurting my head. lol

    Archived Generation Y and Target

    Bingo! ....or...Spot on! Walmart being so high up isn't much of a surprise to me. Aren't they the largest employer in the U.S ? Correct me if I'm wrong.

    thanks. I'll take a look tonight. I figured they'd be next to the slow cookers.

    Archived what's the diff. between sales floor and hardline?

    From my understanding, most stores will crosstrain you pretty much anywhere you ask. Except maybe the pharmacy, if your store has one. I started out in HL, then SL, then asked them to train me in Electronics. And I believe every team member, no matter what area you're working in is trained to...

    Archived what's the diff. between sales floor and hardline?

    Hardline IS part of salesfloor. Salesfloor Hardlines and Salesfloor Softlines. Also, unless it's an extremely low volume store, sales floor TMs don't "stock" per se. You probably just saw them putting away reshop. Or "go-backs" as I've seen some people on here call it. The guys who...

    Archived Getting items from the backroom for guests?

    About question number 3. That's what I always use to do. But, recently, we've been short on Backroom/logistics TMs. So my LOD showed me how to pull small items from the backroom with the PDA. Been doing it myself ever since. It's not policy, I'm sure, but as long as I'm doing it correctly...

    Archived Applied for another job today

    Decided to take the job. I had a day off yesterday, so I called my ETL-HR to give my two weeks notice, which apparently isn't "official" until I write my letter to HR explaining why. I did put on the letter today, though, that I informed HR yesterday and won't be working there after Friday...
