    Specialty Does Anyone Constantly Find Opened Cosmetics At Your Store?

    I agree that it's essentially the same as stealing, but don't think Target would be okay with confronting guests about it. Because unless it's involving a LOT of defected product by the same person/s, the risk of losing guest good will is too high. Make no mistake: I totally agree with your...

    I'm in a dire financial situation and I need more money now. Do I have a path forward with Target in the near future?

    Plenty of TMs work second jobs; I used to before my store decided it was better to give solid TMs more hours than to have a gazillion TMs working short shifts. Might be smart to at least look for a new roommate, look for a second job, and take a hard look at your budget. A lot of people confuse...

    How much do you get done in your allotted shift?

    So wish that someone would be able to zone Beauty at my store. Our main Beauty TM is so slow in pushing her truck and neatness is not her thing. She's very nice, very knowledgeable about her product area, helpful to guests so she's not all bad! Good for you for getting your diagnosis and...

    Specialty Does Anyone Constantly Find Opened Cosmetics At Your Store?

    Yep, all the time. There have even been nasty messages written with foundation or lipstick; made sure our AP TM saw one of them that I found. Lots of nail polish dabs. It really does get pretty disgusting sometimes. In my area (OTC and Pers Care), I find wrecked boxes that electric toothbrushes...

    To that one Team Member - II

    TTOTM on Fulfillment: I know you're new and still learning the ways of Target. But using vulgar language, especially on the sales floor, is not cool. After hearing you use several choice words while talking to your trainer, I interrupted and said something. (Now that I think about it, your...

    The skeleton crew thing is getting really old really fast

    Also worried about Q4. There were so many carts half-full of reshop in Seasonal yesterday and no one was doing anything with them for at least a couple hours. And behind Guest Service? Yikes. It was a nightmare. If we're struggling with reshop now, we're going to be in deep trouble in a few...

    To That One Guest - II

    TTOG shopping for a Shipt order: Maybe next time actually take the time to read the box before you come get me and say you can't find something? The product was right where it was supposed to be, but you had to pick up the box to see the 0.35 ounce part that was hiding behind the self-pusher...

    Is this the thread to say putting together the Cocoa cart was a challenge? It's assembled but not stocked yet. So many pieces! I've done a lot of POGs, including with things like electric toothbrush models, but this was a different kind of beast. Have to say though, I really does look cute...

    Hihi! Seasonal Squad

    I started as a seasonal TM and I'm still at the same store, 10+ years later. @Noiinteam and @Hardlinesmaster are both right. I'd add: Don't be afraid to ask questions. (If someone makes you feel stupid for asking a question, that's their problem.) If you can figure out who are the founts of...

    The skeleton crew thing is getting really old really fast

    Foot traffic is way down at my store, as a TM and I were noting today, and we agreed that the DEI pullback was a huge mistake. Where we disagreed is that I think a new CEO starting early next year would have a good opportunity to admit it was a mistake and bring it back. She said no, it'd be...

    Specialty Sales Application

    It's only been a week. You could be lost in the shuffle or the HR person could be unorganized or someone who's in the decision tree has been out sick. Who knows. If you really want the job, be the squeaky wheel. Call, send emails, show up at the store. But be advised: @nevermind is correct...

    The skeleton crew thing is getting really old really fast

    Reshopped a very full, unsorted triple-tier cart this morning that took me all over the store, except for Style and Market. My store is a mess. The aisles facing the racetracks look pretty good. But get any deeper into a department and most of them are a wreck. I don't really go down aisles in...

    Accidentally clicked No on meal compliance

    I've done this once or twice, and no one has said anything. Anyone know why this is even a thing?

    The skeleton crew thing is getting really old really fast

    Don't know what was going on, but there were no closing experts at my store last night. Pulls weren't done, much less left staged for the morning crew. Reshop either wasn't collected or if it was in some areas, it was just left heaped in triple-tier carts behind GS, no attempt at sorting. Good...

    Lay offs at Target

    But are any of those jobs at the corporate level? According to the article, those are the jobs being cut, at least for now.

    MEGATHREAD Signing Tips, Tricks and Quips (along with howls of despair)

    Yes, just today! This was for a side cap that's part of an end cap POG and I was missing a few of the labels that should have had multiples. Plus another one really had me confused, but a label in the middle of a shelf wasn't there. Thought I'd accidentally thrown it away, but nope, just not there.

    MEGATHREAD myDay app

    The problem appears to have been resolved - yay! Funny because I was back stocking a few things from the previous truck when my zebra pinged with a notification that some bugs have been fixed. Not sure if it was referring to this particular one, but I noticed that it wasn't happening anymore...

    Can I still fill it out if I'm not "officially" a POG TM? I do plenty enough of them to have an opinion! Yesterday, when I did 3 cosmetics revisions, the enormously long lists of fixtures and ISM already in place were ridiculous. Same for the 20 sections of Nail Care to click through for build...

    We aren't going to be selling bikes anymore? Not sure if the TM who builds our bikes will be happy or sad about that.

    We need more vitamins and band-aids? Or is this to allow enough space to actually FIFO the OTC meds without having to take everything out first? That would be nice.
