There's no way the people who make these pallets don't laugh when making them...

This could've just been sent in the mail.

I'm pretty sure this is impossible. The kids would have to somehow know who is a TL and know the dial code to get into the intercom system. Do you mean they stole a walkie and blasted inappropriate stuff? Or are you just Cartoon Penguin?

To your first point, I understand what you mean. But on some occasions where I only took like one day off, I liked having the option to not "waste" my vacation time on a single day and it's weird that was taken away without warning. To your second point, that's exactly what I have tried to do...

I've actually noticed this too weirdly enough. MyTime says I have 49 HOURS of sick time but I seemingly cannot use it on the rare chance I call off. And to completely out myself, I live in a county where sick time is mandatory and should be allowed for any occasion where an employee is sick...

I can almost guarantee he was just watching kids shows the whole time. He did say it was a "very chill job..."

The next store closest to mine has this policy because teens and someone's "angels" would ALWAYS try to tear the store apart and steal just about everything. Allegedly, AP at that store had the mindset of "just don't let them burn the store down." It doesn't help the store is pretty close to a...

I seriously do not know. He barely even talks to the TLs and I know two of my old TLs used to talk smack on him for how much he sucked so who knows what kind of wizard magic he used to convince the store to rehire him. Maybe it's because we have a new HR TL who doesn't really care about anything?

Easier said than done. When the store is understaffed (which is always) and all the other people in GM inevitably get pulled to be at checkout all day, that just leaves me, one other person and this clown. The other person is always responding to guest service calls while I do OPUs (and also...

I certainly wouldn't mind it at my store! Unruly kids are the main people who try to steal at my store or cause problems

TTOTM: Why did you have to return? Things were SO nice when you were gone. I can sympathize and understand that you were laid off at your other job (which you were soooo happy to leave Target for and rubbed in everyone's faces) because of the federal cuts on university research, but you still...

Now THIS is definitely a company-wide problem. All the major issues get bandaid fixed so the DSD and other people at the top don't flip their lid on our TLs (even when they absolutely should)

We used to have an opening TL that would NOT let that behavior slide - he'd make sure everyone was up and at it which explained why U-Boats were always done way before I got there at the time. I wasn't a fan of him because he'd always make me pull priorities even when they were super low but wow...

That's technically how it is supposed to be at my store too but 90% of the morning team just goofs off and doesn't even attempt to push anything in time. My store closes pretty early so my closing shift on weekdays is 11:30 a.m. to 8 p.m., but there should still not be so much truck left. Zoning...

Why are they reporting on this in May as if this is a new thing? Must've been a slow news week. Anyway my goofy small format store has six SCOs and only TWO registers (we have two myCheckouts but they don't get used much) and I don't see the store getting entirely remodeled to accommodate more...
