    Archived How likely is my store to change our unload shift from 4am to 6am?

    With all these new changes happening in my store (A volume Super Target) that also are happening in a lot of stores, I can't really feel it's a good thing at all. I feel like my hours may drop even more. We go at 4am and I struggle to make it pass 8am. First we no longer do Groceries, Dairy...

    Archived Thank You Flow Team

    I know a lot of other departments shit on you guys but you do way more work than them. From bailing out Plano, to bulk grabbing carts to covering SF until 2:30 SF actually comes in. Remember that you guys actually do work. Like unloading the truck and dealing with thousands of boxes a day...

    Archived Flow TL wants me to Call out Logistics TL?

    Title says most of it. Log TL wont help push and stands around brown nosing the STL. Flow TL works their ass off and helps our team tremendously. Log TL stops by helps push half an aisle and disappears. Our TLs usually strive to be part of the team and actually help out. I get that our TLs have...

    Archived Sr TL flow LOD on truck days

    Pretty much the thread title. I was wondering if anyone has seen a Sr flow tl work an LOD shift while running a truck. What tips do you have for running the truck and the store at the same time?

    Archived Leadership in a 4am Store?

    Apparently my store is going from a 10pm to a 4am store. Anyone who works at a 4am store how does the ETL leadership change/do they cut the flow leaders/presentation leaders? Combine them? What happens during this process?

    Archived Another major change coming to Logistics?

    Had a visit recently and one of the group leaders hinted at the speed of trailer unloading going faster in the coming year. They said that most, if not all, of the product will be palletized. Sounds good for stores, not so much for DCs. Anyone else hear anything about this?

    Archived Hello

    Hi, new forum member here. :) I've been working overnights at a Super Target for almost 3 months now. I was originally hired as a flow team member, which was interesting because the guy who trained me spoke 3 words of English, so I mostly figured things out myself. After around a month on...

    Archived Softlines Flow: How often do you come clean?

    How often do you guys have everything out on the floor before you head out? Any tips, tricks, ideas for a quicker and more efficient means of getting done in a timely manner? The reason I ask is my team often has trouble coming clean, even just on carts. We get quite a bit in each morning, but...

    Archived Flow/backroom tl

    Just curious how you all deal with the role of flow/backroom TL position. I'm possibly in a position of take on the role. I'm from a much larger store where the two are separated. Just curious how you juggle the two different teams, and instocks on top of it. Would appreciate any input.

    Archived the struggle (of power) is real!

    our ETL LOG will give a direction and put into play a plan. then, the flow team leader comes along and questions what you are doing, reminding you that thats not what they said to do. when explaining to the ETL why the plan they put into play isnt followed, and that the TL redirected them, the...

    Archived No overnight Flow for Fourth Quarter?

    Got a bomb dropped on us today, I heard all stores flow teams that aren't overnight "right now" are not going overnight for Fourth Quarter... I am not sure if it is just my district or not, but these seems like it is going to be an epic disaster, not only that but we are opening at 7 am now.

    Archived How to go about telling them I don't want to do something?

    So I've been at Target for about a year now as an overnight stock team member. I get along with my TL's and ETL, I'm pretty sure they like me, I stay late when asked etc. Anyway, my ETL comes up to me the other day and said they're gonna put me on presentation. It kind of caught me off guard so...

    I work softlines in the morning doing stock, I'm seriously considering quitting. We have a lot of issues & no support at all from TM's not ever the STL. Our team is way understaffed & we keep getting big shipments for our area, also no one ever zones any part of softlines which makes it...
