any of you california peeps working when they announced it yesterday?
I grew up in earthquake country and was taught to go to the nearest door frame or under a table, what's this 'crouching on the ground with my arms over my neck' stuff?
Code shake?what color code is that?
and remember code brown is taken
No damage there.Sure messes up the cosmetics aisles, I'd wager.

Mine, too & we're not even near a fault.at my store it already looks like an earthquake shook cosmetics
Hmm....SF/Oakland earthquake of 1989 would have been during open hours of stores. I don't know if there were any Targets nearby at that point, then.

I don't think there has ever been a moderate/major earthquake to hit a Target store during open hours. I heard when a moderate/major quake hit some Target stores (1994) it was in the middle of the night (4:30 a.m.). Merchandise was all over the floor so it took a couple of days to clean up. Wish I could see pictures but there aren't any. Maybe pictures were taken but they are now lost.
i agree. i remember being taught this in school. we were given the same drill for tornadoes. if you ever look at pics, you never (or seldom) see a lone door frame standing up in the middle of the rubble after either one. i remember my teacher telling me that it's better if a beam fell to hit your arms rather than your neck because arms are replaceable. all i could think of was if a beam fell across my arms enough to crush them, im pretty sure my neck wouldn't fare any better.
