Scheduled at different store

[Targetemployee78]

Hi. I was scheduled at a different store without my permission and when I brought it up to my ETL they said my only option was so beg someone else to take my shift. Are they able to schedule me at a completely different store if I never said yes?

In my experience, no they can’t, but someone from HR can tell you for sure.

I think you mean a department, not another store. Take the hours.

No. Completely different store. In my schedule it also shows a different store number. It’s for inventory

Wow, without even asking you? That's ballsy.

Back in the day, they would request who would want to take shifts at a different store. And you had to actually sign off on the schedule in order to accept it.


How far is the other store from your other store and home?

Have you down inventory before?

Talk to your hr without delay. Spot will pay for miles to the other store.

The store is roughly 30 minutes from my house. About the same from my store. I’ve been working with target now for 3 years, I honestly can’t remember ever doing inventory for any of the stores I’ve worked at

That only happened to me once way back when. The store needed help with a softlines reset.

This year we got help from another store with inventory and the leaders helped other stores as well. We’ve lost a lot of team members so everyone is helping everyone else.

I'm all for helping each other out, but to just schedule someone without asking is rude.

I've worked other stores over the past couple of years but I was always asked if I wanted to, never heard of being scheduled for another store without permission! That's insane!

This happens to me fairly consistently. My ETL of HR says they will speak to me about it and the conveniently forget to, and then get back to me after I complain to various other people around their position.

You can say no. They will use it against you though. I hate that they won't even try to talk to me in advance

I spent about 6 months between 8 different stores last year. Ive never heard of them scheduling to another store without asking. Its up to you but I say just do it its pretty nice to go to another store and be able to leave at the end of the day and know your not responsible for that mess after that shift lol.
