Does Target have a minimum time as to when a shift ends and a new one starts?

I have a some shifts that end at 10:00 PM but I have to be back at 7:00 AM the next day.

I normally wouldn't care so much but they are both eight hours.

The front end team used to call this "clopening" i.e. close then open.

Thoughts?
 
The rule used to be 8 hours if you get off at 10 then they could schedule you as early as 6. I don’t know if this rule still exists.

8 hours between shifts is the rule from way back when. It’s not really followed anymore unless you have some long timer etls left.

It differs from state to state. The state where I am at there has to be 10 hours between shifts.
 
My TL said I could come in later.

This is why I think TLs should do the schedule if our department is small.

I never understood why Target doesn't do schedules in two week blocks.
 
This is dependent on your state, age, and if a minor, your school status.

Generally. Varies by state, but there is no law or policy as far as I am aware.

I have a clopening scheduled next week for the first time in ages and I am NOT looking forward to it. I mean, it's 10 hours between shifts but for this night owl it's going to suck, lol.
