It seems like we have less hours for the front end team. At least at my store with the exception on SCO. Just hoping they pick back up soon, I cant live with 8 hours
Just wondering if anyone has any tips on how to control/deal with anxiety while cashiering. It seems though I've been with target for almost 3 years as sales floor, when forced to back up (I rarely go up bc of the anxiety it causes) I always get very anxious and am always paranoid that customers...
I know I shouldn't even let this bother me, but I like to think I'm a nice cashier. Ever since I started, I gave and did the best service I could/can do for guests. I smile and great them all the time. Joke around here and there and EVEN convince a lot of them to take back unwanted stuff, just...
Hey all,
I’m a Cashier, hired June 9th of this year. I’m 17 years old and still in high school, which restricts scheduling considerably. I turn 18 in September of this year, so it won’t be too long until I’m no longer going to have an “m” next to my name on the roster. Despite my age, I am good...
So I'm pretty new, also new to this website, and I need to vent what I hate so far.
-People who claim an item was priced waaayyy differently than it really was, and get mad you won't change it to be 75% off or nearly free... even when someone price checks and confirms they're wrong.
-When you...
I had an situation while cashiering yesterday. I finished a transaction like normal for a guest, but then they remembered that they had a Target gift card, which they wanted to use before paying. Unfortunately, they had already completed the transaction, and I tried to help the guest by scanning...
I've been working for about a month now in softlines but haven't been cashier trained like everyone else has been. Who should I talk to about this? My team leader or human resources?I've been holding back because I know it's a busy time and didn't want to stress them or bother, but whenever the...
So I’ve only been with spot for 3 weeks, but have done a pretty great job of picking things up so far (IMO).
However, there are a few things I’m concerned about based on my nonexistent training.
1: the handbook specified that employees need to have their employee discount card for us to be...
I've been at Target for about a month as a cashier, and I've never seen my speed score displayed on my register before. I did some research, and it looks like that metric was removed about a year ago:

hello,
Last week, i was supposed to be trained on Guest Services according to online schedule; However, in the store, they put me as Cashier above my schedule. So I did not even get train for Guest Services.
Also, I need help for proper etiquette for walkie talkie. Ex: I need alcohol check on...
I was recently hired by Target (according to them it is NOT seasonal as I will be working in electronics). However, my first official day (this Friday) will be spent training on cashier. Afterwards, I will be training on electronics.
I’ve worked before as a cashier at two different major fast...
Hey guys, I just posted a question but I have another question so I hope you don't mind.
I am a cashier and I noticed that there was a small pamphlet/leaflet detailing insurance for electronics such as tvs or microwaves. Do any other cashiers have experience offering insurance for expensive...
I just started my cashier position at Target a few weeks ago and although I understand about 80% of my job in working at a cash register, I still have a question about how to handle price corrections/adjustments.
For example, yesterday I had a guest who bought two Lays potato chips bags in...
Just want to have a general idea of what I need to prepare for since this is my first retail job during Black Friday. I'm guessing ever lane will have someone on it and we will be working 12+ hours starting at 12 A.M. till close next day. I also assume there will be alot of angry people that day...
Today was like my fourth day working, and a lady wanted to pay half on her card half with cash.
I typed the amount as cash and it said the remaining balance. The woman swiped her card and the register opened like a second after. I said "your card already went through...?" she said "yes!" and...
Got scheduled for my first shift as a cashier -- can anyone explain some basic things to know how to do?
Like I know wic and that stuff
Just have no idea how to change paper or ink or anything like that
It always amazes me when I'm checking out, and all my stuff is rung up, the cashier will invariably ask me that.
I mean, really? What if I did? Does he/she hold up the line while I go back and grab something else?
Just a peeve of mine, probably silly, but it justs seem like a non-productive...
Can you guys help me get creative with keeping my 1 minute huddles productive but still not sounding scripty?
These are the things I feel like I have to touch on: genuine interactions, cashier empowerment (let's not call the GSA over for $1), stepping out, greeting guests, educating them about...
So I pressed inquiry on the register today then hit back and it showed like some sort of score. It said G on in the middle then underneath it said like 85% score with a GGGGGGGGR. What does all that mean and does it affect if they will keep me or not?
