Yesterday afternoon we had about five pairs and our box is near the entrance.

I think in my store the "denim box" was damaged in shipping so I guess we will use a Gaylord.

The important thing is they are saving payroll!

I assume that's because of the recent Venezuala "election". https://www.npr.org/2024/07/29/nx-s1-5055646/venezuelas-authoritarian-leader-claims-victory-but-opposition-cries-foul Why a Target parking lot though?

Not really applicable in retail but I just heard the term "Bare Minimum Monday"

Employees who get fed up and leave are replaced by newbies or in the case of management people fresh out of college who can be paid less. Ignoring the fact that any money saved is offset by less efficiency in your workers.

Our TL and ETLs are constantly doing OPU and Shipt because they didn't schedule anyone.

I replied to our conversation.

You aren't re-hireable then? /s :eek: I almost 60 and have been laid off and/or fired a few times in my life. Down the road a year or so no one will even care under what circumstances caused you to leave. You are an "at-will" employee in most cases and can be fired for any reason at any time...

Opening at 7:00 AM never seemed smart because they are pushing truck to the floor then.

Funny thing it's easier to hit 80% because there is nothing to pull lately! My store is more concerned with getting items PULLED but not PUSHED. Numerous times I have left ONE three-tier to hit 80%. I would then be off the next day and it would still be there until I worked again two days...

Can the district and/or corporate view percentages in real time? I work afternoons and when I start the percentage is well below 10%. I am usually the only that pulls my department. They are "too busy" pushing truck to ever do it. 🙄 What if I don't show up?

If you demote to a TM it's going to look like TARGET DEMOTED YOU. I would stick it out and keep looking for another job. You were a TM for years before coming a TL so that works in your favor. PM me if you want.

Agreed. IMHO no one at my store wants to be a TL because of chronic understaffing.

I have noticed that at my store this past month. However usually the second TL usually leaves and hour before close.

Great point. I had never even to been to the Target I work at until I went there for an interview there NINE years ago. It is less than six miles away. With the internet shopping and a Kroger that I can walk to why would I?

My state doesn't require it. However I did notice that Kroger posts stuff by the ounce not pound because they realize a lot of guests can't do the math. Posting by the pound is more important for meat and fish IMHO.

I wish our store did that it would save all the hassle of kicking out of the store constantly.

My Target store doesn't do this but I am glad my local Kroger does. https://www.npr.org/sections/planet-money/2024/07/09/g-s1-8534/shrinkflation-inflation-price-consumers-law I have noticed a lot of packages are now 15 ounces instead of 16 ounces too. Companies have been doing this for years...

At my store I haven't noticed much more traffic though OPUs are through the roof. We actually weren't even that busy last week either. Also our store is so excited that we are hitting our pull percentage goals. I have to remind them that it is easy to hit that goal WHEN YOU HAVE NO PRODUCT TO...
