So I work in style and lately my hours have been decreasing each week. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to ask to be cross-trained in different areas of the store to get more hours?
I’m currently a barista and have been asking to cross train for some time now. I want to cross train in softlines just to have a change and not always be working Starbucks. My team lead doesn’t want me to cross train but Starbucks is lacking hours any advice? Would talking to the store manager...
I've been at Target for about a month now. During my interview before I was hired I was informed there would be opportunities for cross training, can anyone tell me how I would go about doing this? Is there someone I need to ask? Will my TL inform us when there are opportunities? I'm not trying...
I’m currently hardlines but apparently our store’s Starbucks franchise location was threatened by ~REAL~ Starbucks leadership that they would take it away if the store didn’t provide better coverage of shifts, breaks, and meals for the current baristas (of which we have very few). So today, I...
So currently I work as a gsa in the front lanes ( I know horried). I talked to my etl about switching to beauty since it would help me becuase my avaliblty is changing due to college. (My etl for the front is also the etl for hardlines). When I asked if I could get moved to that department she...
Hello , my question is sometimes I’m scheduled under Visual Merchandiser . I know that different title should I be getting paid more under that title . My home area is softlines.
Today was my 90 days and during the conference I had with my GSTLs, they asked if I'd be interesting in cross training. I told them I might, and that I like hardlines (the only other area I've ever experienced besides cashiering)! I was just wondering how this whole process would go. Right now...
I want to hear all the possible scenarios as to why this is certainly a necessity, why isn't it done often, or why "from leadership point of view" is it so hard to find or get. I have a scenario at my store were an overnight HR just got promoted and is now on a different shift. It was only one...
Every time I ask my ETL-GE about crosstraining anywhere, she tells me that she'll have to check my metrics first before approving it. My speed is well above 90%, but she wants me to have a Redcard converstion rate of 1/100, and let's just say that my rate is...not that. I can't tell if this is...
Hey TBR! It's been a while. You guys were amazing helping me when I first started out at my store, and I think because of all the info available here, I did really well all through the holiday season. I was always in the top seven RedCard pushers, if not consistently hitting number two in my...
Hi, All -
Long story short is impossible - apologies in advance. Hired early October as a seasonal cashier. Within three weeks, was pulled to "cross train" in Guest Services. And, also given several new cashiers to "train." Guest Services cross-training was really comical - "Here is how to do a...
