Don't think I've heard head cashier. When I first started with Target in 2000, we had "Lead cashiers," who were at the specialist level back when the chain went TM, specialist, TL, ETL.

Update: I spoke with my leader today. According to him, I didn't get the position because there was no position to get. He told me that the SETL position was already filled internally, but for some reason, the position still posted on the website. There went that.

I spoke to my ETL this morning. I told him about the position and that they asked if I had a supervisor's permission to apply. I spoke with HR already, but I didn't want him to feel blindsided, so I wanted his approval before I submitted it. He gave me the green light to apply, so I submitted it...

I saw that. I spoke with both my current SETL and my HR, who both said they saw no impediment to my applying. That said, I didn't pull the trigger. I will ask my HR if her approval meets the requirement.

I was promised cross-training leading to a bench interview years (read: over a decade) ago. The STL who told me this left without making good on that promise, and never told their successor, so when I inquired about it, they looked at me as if I were a crazy person. Over the years, I have...

I just saw that there is a vacant SETL position listed at target careers for the nearest store to the one I work at now. I am not on the bench, but I spoke to my HRTM, and she says I can still apply. I am at a bit of a loss though. Do I apply through the careers site like an outside hire, or do...

I have had this thought too. When I need to speak with HR, I frequently have to come in on my day off, before my shift begins. or after it ends. None of these are ideal, since work related conversations are technically supposed to only happen when I am on the clock.

The green pens are different. They react to the ink, not the paper. You can use it on any printed portion of the bill, but the Treasury seal is usually the best option, since it is a fairly large area. If the ink is correct, nothing happens. If it is not, then the ink will smear. If the paper is...

My store had the green pens until my leadership, in their infinitesimal wisdom, decided to not order more as the old ones ran dry. I remember when we got the pens. Everyone was asking what it would look like when a bill tested bad. The GSA on shift said she didn't know. I printed a speed ID...

My store hasn't had the pens for at least a year. But if one works with money long enough, you get a feel for what just doesn't seem right. I've seen pretty much every sort of counterfeit. Probably my favorite was the one where they had forgotten why US currency are called "greenbacks." That's...

That is what the register's flashing light is for. You get the GSTL's attention, tell them what you want to do, then they tell you whether they can spare you to do it.

We had a GSTL for many years who was, for want of a better term, a martinet. He also had a manner of speaking to guests that came off as extremely condescending. There were regular guest complaints about him. But as the years went on, he mellowed out. As Target went from Fast, Fun, and Friendly...

Why am I having visions of the Mad Hatter's tea party, or musical (electric) chairs?

Been through three PMTs in that time frame. The story I got from the ETLs is that door repairs have to be done by an outside contractor. They have had said contractor to the store several times for the entrance and exit doors over the years, but every time I bring up the cart doors, it just...

They just posted the new org chart, and our Closing TL is an Electronics TM who is being advanced to TL.

My store had its original cart pusher until the handle was being held on with duct tape, and the batteries were so fried that it had to be plugged in at all times when not in actual use. The main issue, however, is the cart doors. Of the four doors, only one still holds open. I have been...
