Archived Hasta la Barista, baby!

Like many long-timers, I'd watched Target go from a company I was proud to work for to a place I couldn't wait to get away from.
This morning I put my voluntary term in HR's box & slipped out quietly.
Let's see what the next two weeks brings.

We can go out together in a blaze of glory!

 

[Noiinteam]

Well that just plain sucks! Lol Seriously I have enjoyed your posts. You will be missed here and I'm sure in your store as well. Best of luck to you

How long have you been with target.

@pptl28yrs: Not nearly as long as you, 15 yrs.
@Noiinteam: Like others before me, I'll probably hang around the forum.
I've made some good friends here.
My friends at the store were part of what kept me there as long as I was. In the past year, quite a number have left & many of the newbs aren't here long enough to build a friendship per se.

YOU BETTER STILL STICK AROUND OR I will keep filling job applications with your name until you get rehired.

BEST OF LUCK RED!!

 

[Hardlinesmaster]

Way to go red!

 

[Redzee]

Enjoy your Target free life but come back to TBR.

 

[commiecorvus]

Go Redeye,go.
They will miss you and know too well that you're gone.
Enjoy your life without Spot.

Still along time good luck. I can't imagine leaving.

 

[redeye58]

Until recently, I couldn't imagine leaving either but things have changed faster than I can adjust to.

Best wishes in your future endeavors!

Jack, if you can bust your butt to escape spot, then I have to at least try 😉

 

[Sickofspot]

@redeye58 , I know you will do well, wherever you go. Do you have a job lined up?

 

[redeye58]

Not immediately.
A friend (& former TM) works in a municipal division & has alerted me to some positions she thinks I'd be great for.
Hubby's work has picked up so he's urged me to take a short breather before jumping back in.
I'm helping move my elderly mother in with one of my sisters & my boys are demanding more attention so shifting gears.

 

[Sickofspot]

Ok. Well, I can tell you that I personally haven't been this happy in a long time. (I keep hearing from my friends and family that I look a lot less stressed. ) I hope getting out of Target does the same for you.

 

[redeye58]

I've been told by others that it's like a boulder slipping off your shoulder when you leave.

 

[Sickofspot]

It really is!!! 🙂

 

[redeye58]

Can't wait 😀

 

[Patty]

I am very very happy for yo7, but PLEASE dont go away! You are one of my favorites

 

[redeye58]

I'll still be ducking in as much as I can; I just won't be able to offer work advice as things change.
And the times, they are a-changin'....

 

[Redzee]

Good for you! Family before Target. Kids grow up fast fast.

 

[Flabbergasted]

@redeye58

I'm so happy for you.

This is my face right now

 

[redeye58]

I'm holding the door open for you, Flabber....🙂
