    Specialty Style

    The 3rd wheel, 2nd priority, stepchild of the store, the list goes on and on. Style is not an easy area to keep up, but when will the area get equal support as all the other areas or give the area what it is owed. When style falls apart, so do all the other aspects of the store, INF, NPS...

    It was a Saturday closing shift and it was on and off busy. I took the fitting key to push out a couple of shirts. I did not sign out the key as I should’ve done, I had the key with me but at some point I thought I put it back. However, after clocking out I get a call from the TL. That’s when I...

    Why doesn't Target carry Levi's 501 jeans?

    Levi's 501 jeans are the company's best-known jeans style, and have a huge worldwide following. Why Target doesn't sell the iconic 501s?

    Style TM’s, do you set vmg’s?

    Hi there Style TM’s, do you set vmg’s? Our store has been making a lot of changes. Now only the team leaders and a few team members who have “special” zones set vmg’s. :( I’m not sure if this is typical or not?

    What exactly is the dating policy?

    I'm going to be blunt and admit I have a big crush on the PMT/PML, and I have before he even had the role. What is the policy for that? I know team members can't date their direct supervisors. There is a couple in my store who the TM got moved to cashier so they could still work in the same...
