Still new obviously, but I feel like talking and making friends with the TLs for certain areas is the best way to get cross trained/more hours. I keep getting asked by other TLs if I want to move to HL or Starbucks permanently. My ETL GE finally caught wind of that (Usually work with the other...

I had a guy pay with a roll of quarters today. I also had a lady sign up for a red card and pay with 76 1$ bills. That was tough to count. Also, if you guys have them TD bank has a free coin counter for people that have an account there.

Electronics shift done! It was harder than I thought at first, but I got the hang of it. I apparently am too neat freak with the zone and keep making things look too nice. Toys was impossible to zone, but I did it with the help of one ETL and 2 SF TMs. Did end the night with all the strays...

@ZombiePanties31: Try talking to your TL about training in more areas. If you are friendly with any ETLs or TLs in different areas you might be able to pick up some shifts for the seasonal people being let go. I did this with electronics and Hardlines in my store since there aren't enough CA...

So, HL shift is over. It was literally easier than cashiering somehow. I was just putting back strays the whole day. Seems everyone else was focused on changing endcaps so I just did strays for all the full carts (3 for E/F, 1 for A/B, 1 overflowing one for C/D in 5 hrs). Pretty easy, helped...

I know this feel. I actually talked to my GSTL after the first day of this (New Years) and they started scheduling one extra cashier the rest of the week. I feel my store needs a minimum of 3 at closing time to be done, zoned and keep the lines short enough where we only occasionally need...

The only story I have concerns clearance stickers. Make sure the clearance sticker, when scanned or manually entered matches the product type. For example, if you manually type the number off a 2.89 clearance sticker found on a teal shirt and it doesn't say something like TEAL BLOUSE S or...

Yeah I will be crosstraining in electronics soon, so I plan to tell all of the cashiers, SD TMs and HL TMs the proper way to do it once I have done it a few times. I want everything to be as easy as possible for everyone involved.

One of the CAs at my store calls out constantly so I have ample opportunity for hours. Between that and all the seasonal cashiers/sales floor being let go (me being retained mostly as cashier) I have lots of hours opportunity. I get asked to stay late every day I work. I generally work 6 days...

Like I said, I will have to check it out when I go back into work (off today). I don't think I have ever seen a coupon where it has space to write stuff like this though. Mostly get the ones we print off from the registers and ones from the add. It is possible the GSTLs handle the coupons...

When I first started as cashier, a new SD TM told me to wind down all the spider locks as far as they go. Later an Electronics TM told me not to do that, so my new strategy is to wind them all the way down, but keep them open. Saves space and allows opening. If I ever encounter one going off...

You are supposed to write the amount on the coupon? News to me, I will have to pay attention to that. I get some couponers, but they will mostly have 4 target coupons printed out from cartwheel and then 4 manufacturer coupons and buy things like baby formula or mouthwash. I love the ones that...

I am also in FL and am getting 8.25/hr as a new cashier. If I am starting to get trained in HL should I get a pay increase if I end up having mostly HL/Electronics shifts? On topic of apology coupons. They are 3$ off. My GSTL just often tells me to take 3$ off something via discount target...

Update: Talked to my ETL HR and another ETL and picked up 2 more shifts (the one I was originally taking tomorrow was filled). I got one HL shift and one Electronics closing shift. They said they will train me how to use the PDA and about HL stuff (I know how to zone and how to do strays from...

This for real happened to me when I worked Black Friday this year. Thankfully it was with the first guest. Did CA things for the night instead (mostly carry outs).

I was told by a GSTL that they were letting people go this week and next week at my store. Some cashiers/sales floor have already been let go, can't speak for flow team.

At my store we have a lot of team leads, sometimes 4 on a shift. Always at least 2. No one says TLOD at my store only LOD. The other night ETL HR and GSA closed. That was the slimmest close I have seen for our ETLs. Generally always close with an ETL or GSTL up front. Multiple TLs from...

Mrknownothing pretty much aced all these questions, but as a cashier who has closed the last 2 nights I can tell you how they might let you know if they choose not to retain you. There are several seasonal cashiers at my job and last few nights they were called into the TSC to meet with ETL-HR...

I was talking to one of the Sr TLs during closing and he mentioned that several people under his team are not being retained (seasonal). He likes me a lot and wants me to train on his team so I can get more hours. I am likely going to be working Sunday alone in Electronics. He also offered me...

I live very close to my store and I can say that going in when they call you to will definitely help with the hours. I have come in when called every time that I have been called (5 times) and would have other times, but I was actually scheduled that night/morning and they didn't realize it...
