Have you noticed the new sounds on the card readers? Instead of the squawking duck we now have a 6 chime doorbell. Thoughts on the new sound?

Does anyone know if you're able to apply for a SrTL position once you're on the bench? Or is that not what being on the bench is for? Thinking in terms for my development as well as pay. I'm a GSA right now, and I'll be taking my interviews later in the week. Unfortunately, I haven't had a...

We've been having problems with our registers. They randomly freeze all day everyday. We have to move the guests to another register and start over. Sometimes it is at the end of the transaction and we have to unload all the bagged stuff and start over. CSC says it is a global issue and they're...

Ours has a habit of doing that. Like, everyone is on a lane and the only HLTM is covering Electronics and fitting roof Is there some rulebook that tells them to scream over the walkie when literally only 2 guest are in line?

I am hoping to get some ideas for good end caps. Being a cashier and pushing red cards and good customer service and interaction is great but I want to drive sales in other ways too. So any ideas besides the normal seasonal candy, wine beer, chips, buns... I was thinking starbucks..

Just curious if it was a chain wide thing to have the checklane phones disconnected. Ours got disconnected this week

I'm looking for ideas. What kind of things are you putting up front?

Id like to have some takes on this topic as it seems to be one of a lot of different opinions. Obviously as it states, I am a SR. GSTL. I run the largest work center in the store (TM size wise with 31 people on my team including the GSA's). That means many different personalities and drama. I...

Hey, I'm a cashier that got hired as seasonal and was kept. I am trained as GS and self checkout along with softlines. During my normal shift I will cashier along with covering breaks at GS SCO cashiers and my GSTLs breaks. I love doing it but I feel used sometimes. Their will often be times...

Today was my 90 days and during the conference I had with my GSTLs, they asked if I'd be interesting in cross training. I told them I might, and that I like hardlines (the only other area I've ever experienced besides cashiering)! I was just wondering how this whole process would go. Right now...

So I have been GSA for about a year now at a C volume store. Our goal is normally between 40-60 and we hardly ever reach it, normally getting in the high 20s- mid 30s. It has become EXTREMELY stressful for myself, the other GSAs and GSTL with the LODS (mainly ETL-GE/SF and STL) up our asses...

I want to thank everyone here. I've learned more from you than I've ever learned at work. You guys are great. When I worked my first GSA shift (after 10 min of training) I asked several questions in a panic. Patient breakroom members helped me get through my shift. I love working in front and...

This is the last set for One Spot By the end of October, it will be history. From what I've heard, the new CEO doesn't like the cluttered, messy look upon entering the stores. Don't know for certain what will take the place of it, but I'm thinking seasonal items.

For starters, I would like to say that my time at Target has been quite educational. I have met some truly wonderful people, and I have what it means to work an actual job. Sadly, I must inform you that I am voluntarily terminating my employment here at Target. There is something that has...

Hey guys, so last night I was doing my weekly food ave shift, and the new GSA came over and asked me to get carts while I was finishing up all the cleaning. First it was 7:30, we close at 8. Second it was pouring rain, and I really hate rain. So I told her that I couldn't, I need to close food...

About time, Target catches up with the times :P I do feel bad, I mean, I know this is just a excuse for them to give Cashiers less hours, but, d***it it's handy when you just need one or two things. Or when the Line at FA is a 20 people long and you just wanna pay for the frozen...

Hey Everyone, In preparing for GSA position, what are some of metrics that are used in the front? Besides RedCards what else is the front end responsible for in staying Green? What would you say is the most difficult part of the position? ~JTFLOW

What should a TM do if they find money on the floor or shelf? It was found before the store opened lying on a shelf behind some product. The TM considered turning it in, but what happens then? Seems odd to find it in that place because there is only a slim chance someone dropped it there. It...

So, who exactly has the power to grant Supervisor access on the register? When I was helping out at another store, the ETL-GE was able to give me access. Tonight, my ETL-HR attempted to give me access. She was unable to do so. Who has the power to grant access? Is it the normal process...

Just another thread to complain about the things guests do! ------ I hate it when I have a line of people at Food Ave, only 4 pizzas, and the guest in front gets them all. Good for sales, but bad because all of the other people in the line usually want pizza as well and they have to wait...
