    Archived Asking for time off

    I was the lucky one last year in our store who got off for the last 9 days of the year (and the first 2 of the new one) due to trying to go to my original hometown (grandparents are 96, never know when the last time I'll get to see them is)......I asked in June, and it took until November to get...

    Archived Back Room duties

    That is exactly what happened one weekend when one of our most vocal flow members who was always fussing about how things looked when they came in. She ended up having to come in to close one night because we were short and she needed hours. Next time I saw her, she just looked at me and said "I...

    Archived did your store start locating produce, deli, and bakery?

    We started this about 2 weeks ago, and what a pain in the behind it is. The PDA signal doesn't work well in Produce, so they had to move the located shelves so that we didn't have to go in to get the waco's to scan. The deli cooler has 10 sets of rolling shelves to move to get to the located...

    Archived do you sign out your pda/walkie?

    We once went about 3 months without anyone printing new sheets for signouts once the old ones were used. Personally, it's been 18 months since I last signed anything out for PDA/Walkies and that was only because I had to show my trainee how to do it correctly. I did find it interesting last...

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    Feel your pain, those are how ours look after flow leaves......thats what we get to pull around all day. I've been leaving stacks of papers with location labels printed on them with the note that I had to locu the location because I could not get to it with reasonable effort.

    Archived Would you go in if you were scheduled for a 3 hour shift?

    We don't usually get scheduled 3 hours, especially in the backroom, but the last time it happened a few months ago, I told them to either extend it to at least 4 1/2 or cut it. Enjoyed my weekend day off.

    Archived Do they make backroom tms at your store respond to backup at the lanes?

    Aside from me and one other person, no one else in our backroom is register trained so they don't even ask. They will try to get us to answer call buttons, which conveniently always fall when we are in the freezer or dairy cooler (whether we are actually there or not).....schedule more cashiers...

    Archived Does working at Target drain you?

    I'm usually drained before I even get into the store anymore, things have been so tense (almost toxic) lately that I walk in wondering who is going take the first shot at me? A couple weeks ago I got fussed at because there was still freight left from the CAF's to be pushed - I had been there...

    Archived How do I find out my pull times?

    I've never quite understood it either, I've often said every other hour would give us a chance to pull the items, and have time to get them on the floor (as well as deal with breaks, etc.).....I know lots of times I can guarentee that if certain items (powdered sugar, tortilla shells), the...

    Archived Inventory

    Backroom does the same thing, worst night of the year because you spend the entire night just listening for someone to yell (although most aren't smart enough to tell you which aisle they are in when there are 20 aisles and 20 people counting, and 2 people doing the checks).

    Archived How do I find out my pull times?

    You can look on Workbench, but we've been forbidden to look at them since I proved the ETL-LOG made a mistake. He asked why it took 2 of us 50 minutes each to pull a 23 minute timed hour.....he had pulled the times at 2 minutes after the hour instead of waiting for all the batches had dropped...
