Hey,
Today was my first day of training as a cashier. I didn't do horrible but I did make a few mistakes and I have a few questions.
Is there any way I can get some kind of manual for the register before I work again? (I don't work again for a week) That would be so helpful because I currently have some trouble with the register, such as when to scan gift cards/coupons or how to do the little uncommon things that do come up every day.
Any other tips with bagging, scanning, and talking to customers at the same time would be awesome. I'm not slow for a first timer but I need to improve. Obviously with time I'll get far more confident but any tips would be great from you guys.
Also, after doing the initial training, will I train again when I start again in a week? After an hour or two or training now I'm confident but there are still little things I have 0 experience with so having someone shadow me would help a ton.
I really hope it's better at Target then today was. It went smoothly for the most part, my trainer was patient with me. My problem was he left to go do something, and I had an issue with the register. A red card thing popped up, I wasn't experienced with it at all yet and hit a wrong button, totally suspending everything. It took 2 or 3 minutes before anyone showed up (not my trainer or GSTL, but some higher up manager.) it was pretty awkward with the customer who was waiting but luckily they were nice and understood. It sucked that I was left alone so early on and that nobody responded for a while, because I was so new and made a simple mistake.
Thanks for reading folks, any help is appreciated! Looking forward to becoming a decent cashier.
