    Can I Stretch My Thirty?

    I was much the same way when I was still at my old store. I tried to come back as soon as the time clock would let me, but sometimes I would come back after 31/32 minutes. I was mostly front-end so I did feel like I should come back ASAP since somebody was usually covering me.

    Later, schmucks

    I'm sorry that the leadership at your store didn't honor your requests. I hope you find something better!

    I'm Lost! The Target Dating Thread

    Yes, he did sound creepy when he said that. However, no one else seemed to be alarmed or raise any eyebrows, including the company president who was also in the office.

    I'm Lost! The Target Dating Thread

    I have somewhat of an embarrassing story about a crush I had from many years ago. Before I came to Target, I applied to work at a travel agency in New York City that sells sports, Broadway, museum etc. tickets for clients visiting from Japan. It was a small office with four regular employees...

    Am I right to be upset about my pathetic raise?

    Yeah, there was also another thread that I noticed where the OP mentioned partying and if they would get in trouble and I wondered if perhaps CartoonPenguin came back.

    Can I get into trouble for not reporting a conflict of interest?

    Is this a CartoonPenguin alt account? The details about the partying seems to be similar to those from his past threads.

    I was fired for breaking the team member purchase policy. What are the factors that are going to be stopping me from getting rehired?

    Genuinely curious, you say that you've spoken with leadership from your old store. Did you speak to them by phone or in-person? I also have to wonder if non-rehireable status is something that is "easy to overturn". I would think that it shouldn't be because it should be reserved for team...

    Is There Any Way I Can Get My Job Back

    I would try and move on at this point because it seems like the ETLs at your old store don't know the rules. Try applying to another retail store nearby. Like other posters have mentioned, sometimes life isn't fair but it seems unlikely that your termination would be overturned.

    Is There Any Way I Can Get My Job Back

    Thanks, I didn't actually remember that was in the handbook. I only remembered the rule that the item had to be on the salesfloor for more than 15 minutes. I'm wondering what the team leaders were thinking when they gave approval to buy the cup or mug. They should know better than to give...

    Is There Any Way I Can Get My Job Back

    From what you've mentioned, I'm not sure why you were terminated. The Stanley cup/mug (don't know the official name) was on the salesfloor for more than 15 minutes and you mentioned that you received approval from several Team Leaders. Is there something that I'm missing? Can you elaborate on...

    College Degree vs Experience

    I wanted to bump this thread because this is something I've always been interested in. In the jobs that I applied to that didn't work out before I came back to Target, job experience/ability to perform the job was much more important than whether you had a degree or not. That's not to say that...

    Confused on termination?!

    I'm really sorry about your experience working at Starbucks and how overwhelmed you were. Since I don't work at Target anymore and I have no interest in visiting my old store, I'm not really sure what the Stanley Cup is. However, if an item wasn't on the sales-floor for more than 15 minutes so...

    Finally it’s over after 22 years!

    I totally wish I did that! I couldn't stand the leadership at my old store!

    Leadership Pet Peeves

    Sorry to bump an old thread but I wanted to add an ETL at my old store who really developed a mean attitude and was only nice to his favorites. I know that I should get over it but it still annoys me that he was so friendly to other leaders/favorites but had such an attitude with some team...

    Service & Engagement Can I speak to a manager?: A front end thread

    I'm just curious, I agree with you but have you ever been reprimanded by a leader for something like that where they tell you to give a guest an order even if they don't have a barcode or 4-digit code? It just seemed like something some "leaders" would do.

    Can I get in trouble for not reporting a conflict of interest?

    I knew that the series would continue! Anyways, if you're really concerned about getting fired like others have mentioned I would stop getting involved in these kinds of situations with other leaders or parties or whatnot. Focus on work and being the best team member that you can be. I also...

    Can I behave however I want during my final two weeks?

    Did you forget that Target is an at-will employer? Team members are free to quit/leave whenever they want and Target is allowed to fire/terminate team members with certain restrictions. No one is obligated to tell you if they are looking for a new job or if they found one. That's not even...

    Can I behave however I want during my final two weeks?

    Does this mean that you'll stop acting immaturely and put in your two weeks without any of the behaviors you listed in the OP like giving your SD the silent treatment or breaking the rules and bringing in food for the other team leads? Also, why did you even bother asking about this if you...

    Can I behave however I want during my final two weeks?

    If you're thinking of acting in this manner, I wouldn't put in your two weeks. If you are unable to handle working out the two weeks in a mature way, just stop showing up. It really sounds like you're looking to cause more drama before you leave, which I'm sure you're store doesn't need.
