Reasons to get fired

[Pinklemonade]

What would be a reason for an ETL to get fired but has been told they can't discuss it with anyone.

We had a guy who enjoyed a liquid lunch quite frequently, a back room TM. Visibly loaded quite a bit. He got the boot. Quite a nice pleasant young guy with a serious problem.

A backroom employee with access to powered equipment and ladders it an accident waiting to happen.

 

[Reshop Ninja]

Isn't that the case for anyone who gets fired?

 

[Pinklemonade]

Oh I wasn't aware that you can't discuss it once you're not with the company.

 

[Reshop Ninja]

I think it's like how it is when someone gets put on a CA or a final, or so I've heard. That you aren't supposed to talk about it with your team mates. That or the reason why they were fired was that they did something serious enough that they are being told not to discuss their termination for legal reasons.

 

[Hardlinesmaster]

All they can say is, they are no longer with target.

Why would they want to? My guess is there is still an ongoing investigation that may reach beyond that ETL role.

Theyre not fired there Seeking opportunities elsewhere 🤣

Well that depends on why. I'm sure if you got fired for stealing or other fraud you wouldn't be bragging.

If it was for telling off an abusive customer or an opressive manager, then sure. 😄

Just a few for my ETLs-
Walked off job
Stealing money
DUI arrest
Hoarding merchandise
Sleeping/relationship with team
Uncompleted tasks
Ignoring team complaints
Not a district butt kisser
Re-Org'ed out/Too Old School

Hiding clearance in office.

Hiding clearance in office.

Sexual harassment/inappropriate work behavior.
Leaning heavily into defecting items out to clear out needed space.

 

[Caliwest]

Turning a blind eye to another ETL turning off office camera s and having sex with minor employee on the premises. Big no no.

 

[Caliwest]

Retaliation against employee during; investigation process by HR involving the reporting of harassment by an ETL favored tm toward this tm.

 

[Caliwest]

Communication with subordinates on site while on leave for suspected retaliation against tm who reported their buddy for bullying.
They're gone now .

 

[Captain Orca]

Gang tats

 

[Dream Baby]

never mind

 

[Ashfromoldsite]

Clearancing something in the system and buying the same day.

 

[Ashfromoldsite]

oh this one’s bad. Forgetting to set the cash office alarm. Calling from home and giving the code to the cleaning crew to enter in. (Back when cleaning crew worked overnight)

ETLs get fired? That's shocking news to me, never seen any type of accountability at our store. TLs are basically in that same boat too, we had one reported more than once for sleeping in the HR office during our overnight remodel days, he's now in the running for a future ETL...

A couple of years ago the District Director (i.e. my SD's boss) came in and fired my ETL.

He was one of those inexperienced ETLs that they hired straight out of college that did one of those internships.

We recently had another ETL fired that I mentioned in another thread.

He was an outside hire and was fired right before Target started their new program of reducing ETL turnover conveniently.

It was ticket swapping, whatever that means. All I know is that this person had been doing it for awhile and stole thousands of dollars by doing it.
