    RandomTechGuy Might be in some trouble.

    Hello everyone, First post here. I am a target team member of nearly 2 years. As you can probably tell by my username I work in electronics and have since I started. I have never really gotten into much trouble except for a couple NCNS way way back (latest one was roughly 6 months ago. Although...

    Handling street dated items

    Heyo, Im an electronics TM and at my store we have a section of street dates that’s unlocated because according to my ETL they’ll show up on the app for like pickup. There has to be a better way to do this. A consequence of this way is that we’re never know what goes out when and it usually...

    Buying a smartphone at target

    I have a question about buying smartphone at Target. I was hoping to get the Samsung Note 20 and was wondering if the TM discount/RedCard will work on it? I planned on buying the unlocked phone, will it make a difference? Also, can it be pricematched and then have the discount/RedCard on top...

    AP/ electronics swraps lock boxes

    Hey everyone I was just wondering if anyone has a store where they have a good storage method for spider wraps and lock boxes in either their boat or the backroom. We have the boat with the cameras still on it so there is not a whole lot of space for them there but we have a 6 cube organizer...

    How's the Xbox/PS5 thing looking for you guys?

    I got to listen to all sorts of drama I won't have to suffer through because I have the weekend off. It's interesting, so long as you're not the one suffering it (and I hope you guys aren't). 40+ calls the poor electronics guy had to take today. Each call went the same. No, we can't sell you...

    Electronic transition

    How is everyone electronic transition going so far? It's going okay for us. But I do have a question regarding those 4 Samsung/Fossil watch white metal displays. Did we get new ones for this set? I tossed them out because the old one show not located and didn't match the DPCI on the plano. But...

    ATT rep soliciting to guest

    Our store lately have been getting ATT reps walking around the whole store trying to solicit guest to get on their plan or upgrade. Is this a new thing at Target or they overstepping their presense? I feel like they are ruinning the shopping experience for our guest. I don't mind if they stay...

    Sending consumer cellulars to a different store

    What are the opinions on this, now that it seems Market Source is mostly gone and each store is supposed to handle their own phone stuff. I work in tech, at my store we've been Plus Mobile for a few years now, so we're competent at CC activations and the like. I've been losing at least a couple...

    Specialty Handing guests security items

    I've always been told that if you have to unlock an item (whether from inside a case or from a locking peg hook), that you can't let the guest handle it at all until it's been paid for. But I also get chewed out from time to time when a guest complains I didn't let them open an Apple Watch...

    Mobile Tech not being able to help anymore?

    I was told by AP a couple days ago that Mobile Tech aren't allowed to help Electronic TMs with push (even if it's Heyday stuff) or casing anymore. They aren't even allowed to check guests out at the boat. I was just wondering if that is normal for everyone else or if it's something new as Mobile...

    Need to buy a laptop

    Does Target offer a program to buy a laptop (not a Chromebook)? Target does sell laptops but they are sold by a third party (antonline?) on our website so our discount doesn't apply apparently. Thanks.

    Manually changing street date?

    I had a question regarding street date on certain items. For example, say a CD, that can not be sold before street date, how would someone go about changing the street date so the computers would let us sell it beforehand? One of my ETL's said theres a way.. is this true?

    charging blocks

    Is this what they are called? The battery you use to charge your phones and devices. Does Target sell them? Do they come with different plugs for different types of devices? Probably a good thing to have in case of a power outage. Mrs. Captain has an iPhone and iPad, the Captain has old...

    Not sure if this is the place for this, but.. Just wondering if there is a specific parts number for video game title card. What I mean by title card is that it's just the cover (and back) of said game to be displayed on the video game magnetic showcase.

About 3 groups of oriental people came in around 4-6 PM and all asked for certain iPads, Apple Watches, Apple Pencils, and Nintendo Switches. The...

    TV Wall

    The tv wall pog. 6.6 hours plus the pml is technically only supposed to help move TVs on the top row. Really Target? Not possible. Plus sign all the TVs. Plus box all the clearance TVs. Plus program all the TVs. Let one smart ass, "think they can do it in that amount of time," slack jawed...
