    Hey guys! So, to give you a brief overview of my Target experience, here it goes: I've been with Target for about 2 1/2 years, and it's a pretty good job. I'm a closer, and I always lead the backroom team when I'm working. I do a pretty good job at it, we're in charge of: Pulling CAF...

    Archived Too much hanging softlines?

    The past couple of months we have been absolutely bombarded with a ton of hanging softlines freight. We have scanner through and pulled down all d-code and clearance. But there is just no more room for anymore hanging apparel. Z-racks are constantly all being used for backstock and we're already...

    Archived Discontinued Items

    How does your store get discontinued out of the back? Who's in charge of keeping track of it? Who pulls it? Who flexes it out? How do you keep it from coming back to the backroom?

    Archived Who is on the other end of MySupport? (Vent, cry, laugh, help, for everyone!)

    I am curious, just how many people successfully gain satisfaction with the results when MySupporting? And from A to Z what do you have to go through? Time, repeating yourself? Do they understand you? Do you ever receive what they order you? And if like me do you do everything in your power to...

    Archived Softlines-Backroom & Earlier Shifts?

    Greetings all, I started at Target recently in Softlines and so far so good I'm thankful to say, albeit a little slow at zoning. But I'm still lost with most all things regarding the backroom, and I'm also unsure about what non-closing shifts do (so far all I've done is closing). Admittedly I...

    Archived How has morale been at your stores with all the recent payroll cuts?

    Not sure if this is just my location, but we're expierencing major cuts in payroll. Dayside sales floor is pretty much non existent right now. One to two max, but lately it's just been one HLTM. Backroom is somehow hanging by a thread. Until next week that is, when only two dayside/mid will be...

    Archived Any other backroom TMs being pushed into another departments due to the new CAF system?

    Let me just start by saying that after hearing of the new CAF system that they will be starting at Target, I knew immediately that one of two things would happen: Hours would be cut, and people would be transferred to new positions or even new departments. After the news was passed down, of...

    Has anyone started the new CAF pull schedule? Just curious how large they end up being as compared to the old schedules. I'm not quite sure how to staff the changes. Our normal CAFs averaged about an hour.

    Archived Hows your backroom/truck team doing?

    Well, to give you all a bit of a background behind my store, it's gone pretty downhill. In the last year we were one of the highest stores in our district, got out of our trucks in our appropriate expected time, finished our hourly CAF into the half hour of each hour, etc. But, now ever since...
