    Archived TPS Questions

    Same here, plus door time so I can see who's coming in. We get PMRs or apprehensions that way. Makes the day go by faster.

    Archived TPS Questions

    I help with team lift carry outs but I will NEVER do carts. I've been asked by front end leadership to help with carts before and I always tell them no, I need to be at the door. One of my co-workers agreed to do it once. We had a small conversation about it and ultimately agreed it hurts our...

    ETL confrontation!!

    minority college student here.. my college experience has NOT been cheap and I don't get scholarships or financial aid either. Your justification for not getting scholarship money because you aren't good at sports or not a minority shows a sense of entitlement that I'd associate with privilege.

    Archived Spotting fraud at Guest Services

    I agree with everyone else, it's probably best you just process the transaction and let AP know ASAP if you think it was suspicious so they can get a license plate. One thing you could probably do is make sure you match serial numbers on electronic items to the serial number on its package and...

    Archived Big Changes Coming to AP

    i'm losing my etl-ap, no word on a replacement yet. the store i work at right now doesn't make enough to be high volume, but we do pick up as the year progresses. i don't think we're getting another etl-ap, i would be surprised if we did. i hope they stop slashing tps hours, yesterday was a slow...

    Archived First Black Friday As TPS

    my first black Friday as a TPS was a nightmare. I found way too many empty packages, I felt that too much theft happened that day because we were bound to the door because we were anticipating a visit from our APBP, who is a door time nazi.

    Archived Why doesn't Target do safety drills?

    one time the fire alarm went off at my store when i was at a register cashiering and 99% of the store's employees didn't know what to do including AP. It was a false alarm (i guess a customer backed into an emergency exit door and caused it to go off when it opened). The STL/LOD went to guest...

    never mess with anything that belongs to a guest unless you want a huge headache, your ass on the line, or a possible termination.

    Archived Possible Termination

    i suggest you just pretend he doesn't exist and consider switching to a work center where you won't see him or transferring to a different store.

    Archived How do you know you will survive your 90 days on the salesfloor?

    I saw one girl from soft lines not reach 90 days before getting let go. She complained a lot and was very vocal to management about her complaints/baggage. She wanted to adjust her availability under her 90 days. She wanted Sundays off so she could volunteer at her church's daycare and went into...

    Archived carrying personal cell phones at work.

    I don't trust my phone in the lockers either, so I take mine every where I go. when I was a cashier I'd use the calculator and now I carry it to text my ETL if i need to get a hold of them.

    Archived Seeking advice for CAF pushes/zone shifts

    make sure you pull off grey dots as you push, always have a box cutter, anything that says invalid on a pda is probably for price accuracy, always check for 2nd locations/end caps before back stocking, and dont overstock.

    Archived P-Fresh Tips?

    if they ask you to work on freezer push, or anything push that has perishables in it, make sure it's not a massive cart.. grab a smart cart and grab a little bit if you have to. it can take a long time working on huge cart of freezer/perishable push, so food can possibly go "bad" or just get too...

    Archived Guest Services

    lol they're prepping you to get service desk trained just on time for the holiday season, when it's the most insane. I only did service desk less than 20 times or so, it's nice not having to do as much as you do on a check lane. but be prepared for literally everything and anything. you'll get...

    a guy i worked with earlier this year got termed by the ETL AP at my store for doing exactly that.. but every store is different, she might just get away with a warning. i would start looking for another job if i were her.

    Archived Do new team members get less hours?

    Before I got my promotion I was a cashier and my hours were always part time. People call out, some days are busier than expected, so every now and then you'll get asked to stay longer or to come in on a day you didn't get scheduled. that usually helped me pick up more hours per week. Just do...
