"DCPI"... since it's not a thing... even in Target speech...

A small part of me dies whenever I hear DCPI instead of DPCI.

I hate the term "ready-to-wear". Just fucking call it women's clothing. There are no tailors anywhere near my store, we know the clothes are ready-to-wear and factory made. WOMEN'S. CLOTHING.

Sense of urgency. basically means someone fucked up, and you now get to work twice as hard.

The first time I got told to kill a shipper I was quite confused.

The first time I got told to kill a shipper I was quite confused.

We call our PDTs guns, we kill shippers/endcaps/etc, we shoot up pallets, we blitz damn near anything, we purge backroom aisles...

Target uses a lot of violent vocab honestly.

I love throwing the bodies of unruly guests shippers in the compactor.

One Team One Dream!

Said by the people who steal from other workcenters the most.

Said by the TL who'll send her whole team to bail out the workcenter her TM boyfriend works in but says any other struggling workcenter "isn't [her] problem."

 

[RhettB]

Said by the TL who'll send her whole team to bail out the workcenter her TM boyfriend works in but says any other struggling workcenter "isn't [her] problem."

Almost sounds like a call to the hotline.

 

[soyaxo]

I thought the "one team one dream" was a phrase made up by the guy who plays music on the walkie and talks back to the TL as a way to be smart ass. I didn't realise it was more than just our store haha

 

[qmosqueen]

i hate the word "Steritech" who has time for that ..... said every PA at my store.

We have to push produce, bananas, meat, vendor milk, specialty milk from the FDC truck, 4 times a week.

Never ending pushing of food !! People have to eat and they boycott the local grocery just 1/4 mile, 3 red lights away.

 

[AfraidOfHeights]

"Fill to depth" because it sounds like "fill to death" which is normally what the push feels like.

i hate the word "Steritech" who has time for that ..... said every PA at my store.

Our ETL calls 'em 'Scarytech' which makes me think of the industrial inspectors for Monsters, Inc.

 

[sigma7]

Said over the walkie: "Paid purchase leaving electronics (or the boat or whatever)."

Aren't all purchases paid for? Unpaid purchases aren't a thing that exists!
