Archived Rest Breaks

[theissueoftissue]

A PMT shift is one long series of breaks broken up with moments of actually working.

You know that! ;>)

I like to pretend I’m union, I take a shit load of breaks.

With the amount of breaks Target provides, everyone may as well be....

I found out the other day that my store is dead last in compliance among...whatever group of stores they use for comparison. That might explain the emphasis.

Seriously, I used to work at a union supermarket and we got a paid 15 per four hours worked (plus a 30 minute meal every 6 hours). We also had to clock out for our 15s, and they docked us for any extra time we took. Oh, and they also loved scheduling people for shifts that were 8 hours and 15 minutes (so 7 hours and 45 minutes on the clock) so they didn't have to give a second 15.

I find that Target is more TM-friendly than my previous employer in most aspects, even though Target isn't union. This is why I say unions are overrated, at least in retail.
