    Archived Speed weaving woes.

    Just so you know, being an efficient cashier doesn't really a good GSA/GSTL make, because in an ideal world your time on a lane will be limited at best. Same as getting redcards, that's good, but what you really need is the ability to drive conversion across your whole team, not just carry it...

    Archived Speed weaving woes.

    If that's bullying I'm Miles Davis. You have to be assertive up front or the guests will walk all over you, your team, and every other guest in their path to get their own way. What was said was polite, well-reasoned, fair, and to the point.

    We don't have a tax free weekend in my state but K-12 goes back to school on monday so last night was a madhouse. TToTM: Thank you for always doing whatever I ask of you even if you'd rather be getting carts. Thank you for getting all the carts yesterday even when the rain kicked back up and...

    Archived Guests throwing their full handbaskets at you to dig in.

    When I buy things I put them on the belt, out of the basket (heavy stuff excluded obviously, but that'll be positioned with barcode facing the cashier side), sorted by how they're bagged. When I return things I hand my receipt to the GSTM instead of leaving it in the bag, or taping it to the...

    Archived A Guest Hijacked My Three Tier

    Speaking of, today we had a visit from the fire dept. for a followup inspection, AND a guest showed up at the front lanes with a full 3-tier of crap.

    ...That's not an idea that's a serious safety hazard. If your AP lead isn't oblivious they should (rightly) be having a shitfit if that happens.

    I thought it took a supervisor override to accept anything over $10...or was that just for manually entered coupons? Although if they were fraudulent were they even scannable in the first place, or just photocopied a once-legit coupon 38 times? Deets!

    Archived Dumb questions from Guests......really..... you have to ask?

    Yeah I'm very careful to keep the GS registers pointing straight at me unless I turn it to show them something (usually something they don't like and don't believe me when I say it...yeah target really pays me to lie so I can keep all your money for myself >:( )

    TToETL...Thanks for the long convo today. If what we talked about wasn't bullshit, I hope to see some positive changes coming, and maybe some opportunities for me (real, not target-jargon opportunities) to train more and advance.

    Archived explosive incident

    Yeah that's ridiculous. Almost as good was the disheveled-looking, possibly homeless or alcoholic guy last night who said his daughter had lost her iPhone there a week ago (who conveniently lives 70 miles away and can't be called at work), but couldn't describe anything about the case or...

    I wouldn't care except for the risk of some overly-anal leader taking offense to it as mrk said, and the fact that I've had enough guests get pissy when I say I'm sorry but I'm on my break/lunch I can't help you with X but that gentleman/lady over there can, that I just don't want to deal with...

    Makes me glad I live in a desert, although the 100+ degree heat all summer does not >_>

    Lol I've been asked where to find things while still walking into the building with a bag of food and sunglasses on.

    Yeah a lot of cold medicines reformulated using Phenylephrine which isn't regulated. It's also been shown in some studies to be about as effective as a placebo, so there's that. Some brands moved their original formulations to something like Nyquil-D/Claritin-D/etc. which is available behind the...

    Yeah checklanes carding for cold medicine is because the product in question usually contains Dextromethorphan, which is for coughs. Also in high quantities can be abused in what's known as "robo-tripping." Psuedoephedrine-containing products are as mrk said only sold by the pharmacy because of...

    Only the freezers? lol. At my store we're expected to zone pfresh, all coolers freezers + dry market by our lonesome. Whether this actually gets done or not I'll leave to your imagination.

    The best is the long baguettes. When they're frozen and they fall down, they don't bounce like bread. They break in half. QMOS time!

    Weeeelllll to be fair mrknownothing while the TMs in sher's case are dumb (online item stickers are like repackage stickers. They're a POS-initiated markdown that functionally replaces the regular barcode for sale purposes...buuut for some dumb reason the PDAs can't read them and you can't...

    Honestly I would probably break down in tears, not because there aren't other things to order but because it's very difficult to guzzle down enough caffeine in 15 minutes when it's lava hot without burning the #%#% outta your tongue/throat. Ice cubes sorta work but make things taste watered down...
