    Ladderless Backroom?

    I feel like whoever marketed these moveable shelves is in a sexual relationship with somebody important at Target, because they were very eager to fuck us with these. Also we kinda need the giant ladders because of all the big awkward/heavy stuff that is up high, despite the plans to stop doing...

    How to meet the time deadlines in fulfillment?

    Maybe not cut out for it, but I think more likely they just weren't trained and need a new perspective and good practice. Almost anybody with a pulse can pick 80 uph.

    How to meet the time deadlines in fulfillment?

    So much this. If we're spending just 2 seconds at each one, like to zone or to move the cart more than we needed to, that's more than a minute right there. Like several have said, reading locations is key. Unless you already know exactly where the item is, it will be faster to count sections as...

    Can I be banned for nothing?

    Semi-serious answer if there's a protective order - you can have the protective order modified in most cases, but Target can still ban you. Since you're talking about doing your job, it's unlikely you're banned if you behave yourself. Also don't stalk unless you're celery.

    Closing lead question

    If they're locked then you should be fine. If unsure contact your ETL lol.

    Is Pacesetter pay really nonexistent?

    The HR expert job is the best thing you can put on your resume at the pay grade. ASANTS, but our last few HR experts have been dynamite, and we keep losing them to higher paying jobs - it's mostly a pathway to better employment, though it can also be a pathway to Target leadership.

    Anything I should know about Cashiering?

    omg this. For some reason, this scam has an amazing success rate on new cashiers. Most will fall for it and not even flip their light for help.

    Team leader

    The 6 day stretches are kinda awful lol. Right now I'm 4 on 1 off, 1 on 1 off, through the holidays. Nice change of pace, but I do like getting full weekends so the 6 day stretch is tolerable.

    Question about being a cashier at target

    Ask your leader if you can get some practice. That's how I learned but it still takes time.

    how do i see survey answers a guest wrote about me?

    If a guest calls out a TM for great service on a survey, the S&E TLs may see it. They should be passing that on to other leaders for recognition or even calling it out on the walkie. We post ours in TMSC. I would ask a front end lead. At worst, you're letting people know that you did well for a...

    Is this unethical?

    It's probably best not to. But (at my store) when a TM does a no call no show, they are told that one is coming. If there are repeated incidents and a documented trend, you should already know it's coming. Doesn't seem like a big issue, since the big issue is your attendance and blaming others...

    Setting up for failure situation/ also racial favoritism

    I hesitate to add to the OPs anxiety, but I'll be honest. When a team member who is AA or part of another culturally/ethnically under-repped group has issues and needs performance documented and seems to be on the road to counseling/term, I proceed very carefully and take a partner for...

    The red vest

    Don't wash them in a washing machine! Unless you need lots and lots of loose thread for your prank.

    New wage only for new hires?

    If they routinely give new hires more than people who have been there, it won't take long for everyone to figure out and get mighty ticked off.

    Does anyone else's TL's not allow them to drink soda and coffee while on the clock?

    Some permit it, some don't. And it's more of an ETL/SD thing than a TL thing. TLs don't make store policy. Haven't read the official word in a while but I'm pretty sure Target only allows water in clear bottles.

    K1 Scam

    Cash means cash, and never anything but cash Sorry you got got on this one. The majority of TMs who don't have that specific training get caught out by this one. It's a really good scam even though it sounds preposterous.

    Does your store line bust?

    Q1 it doesn't make as much sense except for very busy stores. Guests looooove it, it does help with NPS. If you have three lanes open you can afford to put your fourth on linebusting, imo.

    Does Target ever fire anyone?

    Heh, the documentation barrier is pretty big at my store. You have to have lots of performance conversations documented, then they basically get a couple of "resets" if it gets to CA, as in you have to give time and build up more documentation. Which means lots more conversations. The TM will no...

    Are corporate visits suppose to be scary?

    Corporate visits are performative and serve as proof that everyone can get their shit together on short notice. They are important for maintaining order and standards. Use them to shine.
