Hi, I just finished my first week training schedule for GM of D/C (bedding furniture/home decor) and I'm still a little shaky on what exactly my responsibilities are. All I've been doing is zoning and doing reshops for my 5 hours shifts. My trainer taught me how to backstock and how to pull...

Do presentation TMs even get hours to build all these displays anymore? I'm drowning in them and have asked for hours but barely get enough to do them. It's taking a lot of space and I honestly just feel like sweeping it all.

Hello! I’m a GM team member and I usually do BED and OTC, but tomorrow I am scheduled in KIT, and CB the next day. Does anyone know what departments CB and KIT are? Or what they stand for? Thanks in advance!

I’m new to the Target team, it’s my second day out of training. I’m working in fulfillment mostly doing Ship to Store orders. When I’m walking about, guests stop and ask where certain things are. I HAVE NO CLUE. I obviously say “oh give me just one second and I’ll find that for you” and pull out...

My store had some notes from a recent conference call that told us to use “all of our resources” to ensure replenishment of OOS items. Meaning, not just SFC/SFQ audits, or on hand audits, but they are looking for something more. Am I just dumb, or are there other things we can be doing to help...

Hello!! So 2 questions.. - When you turn 18, are you required to know how to open and close even if your availability does not include those times or will they still go by your availability? - What is a good availability times and days wise for a school student? I feel like I might have way...

Hey everyone I was just wondering what your stores do with your closing expert. My store used to have two one of which was me who was in charge of one spot, batteries, checklane endcaps and the gift card wall. The other one always just zone endcaps and sometimes a certain set of aisles like...

Hey everyone! Recently, I was hired as a seasonal tm working in GM. I finished my training and today was my second day working alone and so far I like the job I’m just a little stressed and have a few questions! 1. When training, I was told that there are “5 essential steps” for the GM position...

I’ve unofficially designated myself as DBO of Beauty. I’ve been part of a remodel team and just feel general ownership of of the department. I’m the only experienced member on the team with newbies that I want to train. With all the other necessary things to provide for a well-run department...

Anyone else's store doing similar?

Does anyone here think they'll eventually just phase out inbound team? We're getting less a less hours every week. Even though when we come in, almost every vehicle is still there completely full. So before we even start the days unload, we have to stock all of yesterday's truck. And a handful...

Hello, it’s been a while but I wanted to ask If I was hired as front of store but now I only do GM. Is there anyway that I could change job title in the system so that I only just do GM?

What kind of hours do essentials get in other stores? we only get 5 hour shifts at our store.

Today a customer came to me and asked about AirPods. I said we were all out and told them that amazon or Apple online have about a zillion of them in stock. They thanked me and left. Anyone else just do their job (stocking or folding clothes) and don’t care about trying to sell “guests” items...

I recently took a promotion to the GM1 position. I'm worried but excited at the same time, I've been in receiving for 5 years and always spent any down time helping everywhere and learning everything I could. Before receiving, I have 3 years of flow/PA mixed in there too. I feel I have a great...

I was switched out of Starbucks after two days of training. Now I've had two days of training on the floor and today I'm on my own. Both training days I started with one person and then switched after the first person left, so I have no idea what the routine is supposed to be. I came in today...

We're obviously super behind. We have no clue where the flatware is supposed to set with the new layout. If anyone has a similar map, could you point me in the right direction?

Alright, I’m in pharmacy at our store. I’ve been here about a month and am struggling. ere is still stuff that is confusing me or bothering me. Like, is it normal for most of my load to not actually go up? I just get the same stuff over and over and never actually need a full box. Today I got...

Is anyone's store rolling a new GM expert training series? Our store is, not sure if it's company-wide yet or if we're a pilot, but it looks pretty slick. It's a combo of online prep training followed up by working with TMs on the day's theme. Four shifts--assess your area, working the truck...

Hey guys, I finaly dicided to post something today. I've been reading a lot of your posts for almost a month and it helped me when I was confused about my job. I recently moved to KC. I got a job here as a GM sporting goods. is it normal that I had one day of training? For the past 2 weeks...
