My husband is in the military, and I'm a relatively new TL at spot. I was hired as a Brand TM for a new store in August, helped set it up, and quickly became TL (Softlines) because my ETL asked me to. Our store in general is doing TERRIBLY. Vibe scores suck, safety is. the. worst. and my department is basically at the bottom of the heap (not for safety, but Vibe scores).
Long story short, when I first started, I LOVED Target. Loved the structure, loved the people and the "Vibe". Lately, it's sucking the life out of me. I bust my ass. I feel like I delegate well. But, I get nothing but negative feedback from my ETL.
WELL, we got orders to another state and will move mid-June, and I haven't told my HR ETL yet. I looked at positions near where we are moving to, and there are no TL positions available. But, I'll be honest, I was kind of relieved. I know my recent experiences could be clouding my judgement, and another FRESH NEW store could be just what I need, but I think I may just want to quit altogether...and not even ask to be transferred to another Target. I know FOR SURE that I do not want to revert to TM again.
The ONLY negativity I get is from my ETL (and some sub-par TMs, but that I can handle). Everyone else at spot (all the other ETLs, TLs, and even the STL) are super nice and supportive of me. I drive the vibe like crazy, do what all of the ETLs ask of me, try my best to be global, and really really push safety. I can't try any harder. I can't. I don't know what I'm really asking, basically some advice or BTDTs. TIA!
