    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.

    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.

    How much do you get done in your allotted shift?

    My store isn't high-volume. Used to be low-volume, but that might have gone up a notch with SFS. Although our trucks are consistently a lot bigger than when I started 10+ years ago; still only 3, sometimes 4 per week. Holiday season work load has varied a lot over the years; don't know what...

    Question about confirming availability for seasonal Target job

    Ooh, really shouldn't have said you were available all day because you're not really. If you're still available at times your store has difficulty keeping fully staffed, it might work out okay. But if you're not available at high-demand times, you might find yourself left off the schedule. No...

    How much do you get done in your allotted shift?

    Used to be we hardly ever rolled any truck. Now it's common, although I'm not sure it's always the same areas. We get only 3 per week, so there are opportunities to catch up. Back stock doesn't usually pile up too much, since whatever's left after pushing a vehicle generally gets back stocked...

    Seems like the label strips for OTC and Personal Care are lining up better with the product for this last round of revisions. Not 100% perfect but a whole lot better than the last couple times. So glad to see an improvement with this. (Now that it's been mentioned, wait until next time! It'll be...

    I'm relieved to know it's not just me. Other TMs at my store not having the problem and me having the problem with multiple zebras was making me take it personally! :-)

    Has anyone else had trouble with back stocking, where you have to scan the product's UPC twice? The light glows, the zebra beeps, but there are just a couple of pale gray bars near the top of the screen. I scan again, and it works normally, scan the waco bar code and that's fine. It's just the...

    And we're always hungry so food always goes over well. :-) Seriously, feed us and it means something. Correct about "thank you" meaning nothing when it's said for every little thing. Our SD does this over the walkie all day long and some of us just do eye rolls at each other.

    Paid time off.

    Testing it out today - usually I put in a PTO request on Sundays to bump my hours up close to 40. The last one was auto-denied because of this changeover. Hoping this one goes through.

    The skeleton crew thing is getting really old really fast

    Yep. It's perennial issue but it seems to be worse in recent months. The store looks trashed much of the time except for certain areas like Soft Lines, which gets cleaned up pretty regularly. No one has time to zone. Heard an ETL say over walkie yesterday that some back room aisles are blocked...

    Whatever you do, be very careful to avoid favoritism or even the appearance of it. It's happened before at my store and created a lot of resentment - kind of the opposite of your goal! There's a TL at my store who will ask TMs what their favorite beverage, snack, treat is and then requisition it...

    To That One Guest - II

    TTOG: It's not nice to open a bag of Halloween candy, eat a couple pieces, then leave the open bag on a shelf. At least it was a small bag and it didn't spill, so I guess thanks for that. Next time, just pay the $4 and take the bag home with you.

    If this has been asked in this thread before, my apologies. Does anyone know why we can't pre-tie revisions? There are some that are pretty extensive even though no shelves move, with lots of new product coming in. Sure would be helpful to have accurately printed pick labels on all those cases...

    It'll be interesting to see if not having displays leads to guests opening boxes to see what the thing looks like. (Like the pictures on the box aren't helpful, I guess.)

    Hello! Joining to help get more feedback

    Here's something I've been noticing lately: The SFC is set at what it should be, say 8. But the SFQ is at 26 or some weirdly much larger number than what will fit. I don't know how the quantity can possibly be more than the capacity and at first, I thought I was looking at it backwards. These...
