softlines

I recently got hired at Target in softlines! I totally enjoy it. Could be my location and team members that make it great. Anyways I got my new schedule and I’m confused about some abbreviations if you can help me out. I usually work kids, men’s, and RTW. But now I have FR- I’m sure that ones...

Today was supposed to orientation but I was pulled early and put on the floor. My trainer basically said to straighten things and go get things and otherwise would disappear. I had to go in the back to get boxes down that were stacked high and VERY precariously,and they were really heavy - and...

Hi so this is my first time posting here but I went to my first day of training for softlines and am super discouraged :( I worked on my computer training for the first hour or two but then was put into cashier training by my HR even though it wasn't listed in my training schedule. I've never...

So my ETL just called asking if I can come in to Backroom profile the rest of this week and I’m wondering what to expect?

Hardlines? Softlines? A homeless wizard? Nobody?

Been getting more than the usual amount of people walking deep into hardlines to ask me about where something in softlines is. I have no idea where anything specific is in softlines, I only know a few general areas that I get asked about frequently. They changed the floor layout a little while...

I'm a new TM in Softlines, and just started seeing F8 show up on my schedule. What does this mean?

I started training in softlines this past week. I think I’m doing well, but I do have a few unanswered questions that I was hoping some of you could help me with. 1. What exactly is “zoning” and is there a specific process to doing it? 2. They’ve only scheduled me for morning shifts and early...

I just recently started as a TM in Softlines, and I'm seeing different acronyms on my schedule. I know RTW = Ready to Wear and FR = Fitting Room. Can someone please post a breakdown of all the acronyms for the zones please? Thanks in advance!
