That's because with the exception of the big areas like shoes and intimates, SL has ALWAYS handled its own sets. You're right though, SL is far more flexible in organization and yet at the same time we are being slammed with "DO IT TO VMG!!!!"
Which is so frustrating because our newest VMG only shows one store layout, which doesn’t match my store. So we’re supposed to reset an area with much less space than it calls for, and without half of the special fixtures (like the large white walls).
I think in average 8 hour shift of mine I would say that a good 6.5 is spent doing work. There is always something to do and I really find me the I screw around for like 5 minutes at a time.
At my store, believe it or not, a dedicated person from the plano team would set the softlines department, racks and all, up until several years ago! I remember our leads getting zero training for doing it, and everything looking like hell for a long time.
It's some of that, but it's also just the way the workforce is now days and the types of people applying for these kinds of jobs.
Yes--at my store, we (POG team) handled most SL sets until about a yearish ago. I loved doing it, I was damn good at it, and I was seriously bummed when they end-to-ended that away from us.
And 20 of those 100+ hours of workload get siphoned off back up cashiering.
Worst part is all that’s going to happen is an STL is going to get bitched at, who’s going to bitch to his ETLs, who will then do the same to the TLs...
This. If I had a dollar for every time I've heard "accountability" since last April, I could take a decent vacation, if not a wee paid LoA (especially if I added dollars for every time a guest let me have it for the fact we were short-staffed up front). Yet, the people who came up with this brilliant idea don't want to be held accountable for the fact it does not work.
Well damn I have to say that at least the first pic she has a point, those chep pallets are completely wrong and shouldn’t be parked in the fucking main aisle like that. The rest of the pics, they can’t say shit because the stuff is mostly on uboats like they wanted.well this lady was upset on target community Facebook page .. wow no pictures with team members ??
Patent Target response as to wanting to know the store location. Ummm, it is every location that is doing modernization. How about, we thank you for contacting us and we will let corporate know their direction is not pleasing their guests.well this lady was upset on target community Facebook page .. wow no pictures with team members ??
Based on her writing about the foods being left out for an hour, and companies paying for end cap sales floor location, I'd bet she used to work in retail.well this lady was upset on target community Facebook page .. wow no pictures with team members ??
Because leads and leaders was stupid.
Gsa don’t get an increase anymore. They make the same as a cashier.
But Expert and Advocate aren't?
Let's not forget, they attract a lot of fresh-out-of-college people by calling it an "executive" position.
Yep. They think the job is sitting on your ass all day in a windowed corner office high above us riff-raff TMs
My HR told my coworker that I will be considered tech/electronics lead & there will be a beauty lead. Both of us also get raises, but another LOD said otherwise.
Some of the truck unload team pushes. Take u-boat, replace it with empty one, push product, swap for one that now has product on it, etc, until the unload is done.
