    TTOG (well, two, since they were a couple): Don't care how cute your little, fluffy, white dog is. If a dog growls at people in a public place, the dog should not be brought into public places, especially ones that are having a busy Sunday and often has young children around. One day, one of...

    TTOG (maybe 12 years old): Thanks for letting me know about the broken bottle in the shampoo aisle. It was kind of a mess, but it would have been a lot worse if others tracked through it. Have to say I was a little surprised that you're so young but still took responsibility to find one of us...

    TTOG: Overheard but didn't see you talking to your kids (making some assumptions here), but thank you so much for telling your kids that unfolding clothes in the Big Girls' area and leaving them in a heap is not a nice thing. You said that the store workers don't appreciate having to refold all...

    Except when they're browsing in soft lines or Domestics - anywhere other than Market or Essentials. Just strolling along, kid screaming and sobbing for whatever reason - tantrum, hungry, wet diaper, exhausted, or just having a grumpy day. I don't ever understand why the parent seems to think...

    TTOTM: Oh my word, what is your problem? Seems like some people go around looking for someone to be mad at, and I guess it was my turn today. I have no idea what I did to make you lay into me, actually shouting at me and saying I was the one over-reacting. Um, wow, do you even know what that...

    The Things Guests Do/Pet Peeves Thread

    Guests who stand in the middle of an aisle for what seems like forever when I'm trying to push my truck. They're texting or looking up something on their phone, or shopping with a friend and chatting, or disciplining (or not) their children. Or just taking a very long time deciding which...

    TTOTM: Wow, thanks for respecting my space enough to ask if I'd mind if you played music while working in a nearby area. Another TM always seems to think everyone around wants to hear her music over her phone with its lousy speaker quality AND hear her sing along, loudly. Most TMs who know me...

    TTOG: You are a rarity! When your child was picking things up and setting them down wherever, you stopped him and explained that store workers have to put all those things back where they belong, that he was making our jobs harder, and that he needed to put things back where he found them. I can...

    I might believe that if I didn't also find half-eaten food and the chewed wads of gum. Sure, I expect a few do as you say, but I'm more with @Captain Orca on this one. Although I wouldn't have been when I first started - gave the benefit of the doubt way more often in those days.

    What's a PDD for attendance? I had to call off for a little more than week (sick, but not covid) and wasn't given any grief about it because, like you, I don't make a habit of calling off.

    Seriously! What is wrong with people? Half-full bottles of whatever left without the cap on, half-full beverage cups with no lid, chewed wads of gum stuck to shelves, half-eaten food left wherever the *person* happens to be. Found a crumpled chip bag crammed into a shelf of allergy meds the...

    I hope no adults I know do this kind of thing. And I'd question how "adult" someone is if this is what they do for fun. It's so childish.

    TTOG (or maybe two): The "play with cans of shaving cream" game is so old, but you put a new twist on it with spraying a little pile of one kind and then sitting the can in the middle of the pile. Thanks for demonstrating your technique not once, not twice, but three times with three different...

    Other than soft lines break out and the occasional complicated and large POG, I completely agree. There are two TMs at my store who very often somehow end up working together and - can this possibly be coincidence? - they happen to be in a dating relationship. They're both so slow. She's in...

    Does anyone else think this looks like the Target version of Walmart garb? I think it looks sort of sloppy. Appearance aside, I like keeping my work clothes and not-work clothes separate. Working truck means my shirt often gets some kind of goop on it (leaky soap or body wash or mouthwash...

    Seems like there's always someone who enjoys pushing right up to the line and then jumping over it. We have a TM who takes OPU orders out to guests and they have a lot of piercings. Can't think of anyone now, but we've had TMs in the past with a lot of tattoos. (Some current TMs have a few and...

    I'm not a gum chewer and wouldn't call it "vile and disgusting," but when our grocery department expanded during remodel a few years ago, we were told that gum was a no-no. Doesn't make any difference to some TMs and I do think it's sort of gross to be chewing gum in a public-facing job. Once...

    TTOG in the Adult Cough & Cold section: Seriously, you think it's okay to leave a banana laying on top of bottles of cold medicine, tucked in under the shelf above so the banana can't be seen easily? While setting that transition, I put my hand on it, reaching to move containers and definitely...

    This is why I can be a good cashier but not an excellent one. That "check without saying anything" part I could manage if that includes a "stern but disappointed" scowl, which it probably doesn't. Fortunately for me, I almost always have so much freight that no one expects me to respond for back-up.

    Then she could have said something more. All she said was "anti-itch." Or she could have spoken with the pharmacist if she was embarrassed to say more to me. Not that she would have known, but working in the area with condoms, suppositories, remedies for lice, etc., I've been asked about pretty...
