I worked as a Target cashier for almost a year and I recently got hired this summer as a Hardlines TM at a different store in a different state. I picked up the job pretty quick and everyone really seems to like me and my work ethic. One of the HL TL's recently told me that a position in the backroom is opening up and that he thought I would be a good candidate and that I should apply for the position.
Here's the thing... our backroom team is not the nicest bunch of people and I don't know if I want to work in the same area as them. One of them is pretty cool, but at least half are punks. How much actual working WITH them on a day to day basis is there? Or is it mostly everyone is doing their own thing and not a huge amount of interaction. I know it is a raise going from HL to Backroom, but I don't want to turn into one of those punks.
Also, I feel like one of my stengths is my guest interactions, which would be basically non-existent in the backroom. Another thing is that I would sort of be hidden and I am afraid that might hurt my chances in the future to move up any more in the store.
Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated! Thanks!
