    Acknowledging RDC

    I'm just curious, do your stores acknowledge the RDC truck the moment it arrives or after the unload is complete? We acknowledge ours on arrival. I ask because out truvk arrived yesterday and was acknowledged. One of the vendors rhat sets displays got the notification their displays had arrived...

    Have your stores changed the truck days in 2024

    Our truck days will change jan 14. They say all stores will be the same as ordered by corporate... wondering who else is seeing this change.

    Pulling case packs

    Why does Target require me to pull a whole case of item then back stock most of it. Apparently they make OPUs pull them that way. Some of my aisles are set up that way including the ones 10 feet off the floor. My TL said they monitor this as a metric which means I can't exit the priority pull...

    Note on repack

    Was this meant for someone at the DC or for us at the store? What does it mean?? There was an adhesive label pouch with a bunch of casepack stickers stuck to the outside of the repack.

    Timers on UBoats

    Just got word that timers are going to be attached to u boats set at 30 - 60 seconds a box completion. Any chatter about this being from Corp. or ASANTS leadership ? Stores going to overnights or are we supposed to run over guests during busines hours to beat the clock?

    Inbound expert

    Can someone tell me what does an inbound expert do? I’ve recently been hired for this role and I am just curious? Is it full time or part time? What all does the job entail?

    Logistics Unload best practices

    Just read through the unload best practices today. Our TL says they are a waste of time and slow down the unload process. Do any stores actually follow the best practices and if so how does it affect your unload?

    Trailer unload time

    Is any other store taking 4 hours to unload a 1600 piece truck or is it just my store?

    New Truck schedule?

    There's been murmurings at my store that we're going to go to 2 weeks on 2 weeks off of trucks?! Before the holiday season we consistently have gotten 7-8 trucks a week, now with the Christmas season we pretty much get a double every other day. There talking about implementing this in December...

    Pushing Pulls, repacks, "todays workload" & "yesterday's workload" sucks

    Today was a sad day for me. I was very overwhelmed, I was mad and sad at the same time. I always hated pushing pulls, but today made realize that I cannot stand them at all. Literally what's the point of dayside pulling something at 2pm and then saving it in the backroom for someone else to push...

    Double trucks weekly

    We have double trucks at least once a week and no less than 7 trucks a week. Yet no double of workers to help! So many have left our store in the past month...both Lods,3 team leads ( people who had been with Target 20+ years)and scores of others. It's overwhelming to deal with the outrageous...

    Scheduled me to work the truck?

    Hi, I’ve never ever sorted the truck before on the line. I’ve done style breakout but never from the actual line of the truck. My shift for that day is 4am and it’s because it’s a double that day. Do they expect me to know what to do? I have no idea and I’ve been told I’ll be the only one there...

    I guess I will never have my own set of keys for powered equipment...

    Shift leaders: I want you to unload truck Shift leader: can you take out the pallets of water Me: I has no key Shift leader: 😠 Doesn't help that they don't show us how to use such equipment either, so like if they did lend me their keys I wouldn't be able to use a powered jack or pallet...

    Freight Flow

    Hello, Two weeks ago pushed about 1/4-1/2 truck worth of essentials and food backstock from DC. Last week pushed 1/4-1/2 truck of dom/dec/kit backstock from DC. This week expecting 1/4-1/2 truck of toy/sports backstock from DC. Are you all in the same boat as I am in? It wasn't product...

    Pricing and Presentation Transition: Freight Flow

    Currently, I'm guessing, all stores are overwhelmed with excess freight. We're starting to see the influx of all the product we didn't get last year along with all the stuff that was ordered for this year. At my store, our backroom valleys are filled to the gills and our steel space is jacked...

    TLs focusing too much on truck?

    Anyone else gets a little annoyed when most of the TL focus 90%+ on getting the truck pushed vs 10% everything else? I know truck is important but so is setting POGs, filling endcaps, price change etc. Sales planners for example they wait till the last 2 days to start setting 10 salesplanners. I...

    Improving Inbound

    I am about to move from fulfillment to GMTL Inbound. The ETL is very new and inexperienced and is really struggling. One of our PP2 TLs is pretty burnt out and the other is brand new. I know that getting the GM process right will take some time so does anyone have any tips or advice on where...
