Fellow HR folks, how do you get through this rough seasonal time?? As a new hrtm, I feel like im drownding. Any tips to keep on the up&up (haha, pun intended) would be much appriciated. Thanks.
Hey y'all. I'm DJ.
I just started as a cashier about 3 weeks ago and feel like I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing. I received basically no training and was just put immediately on a lane. That being said, I feel like I'm doing fine, but I definitely don't feel comfortable with it yet...
Hello all! Please refer to my original post regarding some backstory here if necessary
I am particularly interested in any portions of the handbook that can back any answers up. I have not been able to get a copy, being a former TM. Any scans of any pages would be great.
Now, here are my...
I'm close to finishing up the process of legally changing my name (I didn't get married, it's just something I've thought about doing for a long time now). I don't have my new SS card or drivers' license yet, but I'm trying to get all my ducks in a row for when I do have my new ID ready. Does...
I was hired about a week ago, and there was an orientation a couple days after that but it was too soon for me to be in that one which I understood. So they told me there was one on the 7th and they were going to wait for HR to confirm. I called them today because I hadn't gotten a call from...
Hi! Long time lurker but first time poster. Anyways, I was hired almost a year ago as a Cart Attendant and just Today I was promoted to GSA (Yay!) but, I have a problem with another team Member. You see, this person and myself were friends for awhile untill we had an argument and haven't been on...
Hello everyone.
As some of you know, I got a new job and will only be working one day a week starting the 19th. Now, I need to stop 401K and united way from being taken out of my paycheck. It doesnt make sense for me financially to use those services when only working one day a week.
Anyone...
I am going to Germany for three weeks. A month in advance I tried asking it off as usual. When I did, it told me it was too long of a time frame and I should consider an LOA. A GSA happened to be standing right there so I asked her if that's what I should do. She told me that I could break it up...
I was at work and my GSTL pulled me off the lanes, it was slow and at night, and had me stocking up endcaps and cleaning the belts, since no new team members seems to remember that they're supposed to collect stray and make sure things look somewhat ok... But with all the walking, my locker key...
Hello everyone.
As some of you know, I graduated this past December after 7 long years of going to school part time to get my degree. Some of you also may know I sort of had a job lined up a few months ago (just didnt work out.)
Now I am proud to announce that I have accepted a job in my...
I fell down at work and hurt my leg, ankle, and butt, and the GSA was pretty nonchalant and even though I was limping like mad and in a lot of pain, he pretty much ignored it.
The LOD finally asked why I was limping and I said that I'd fallen. Then they asked if I needed to fill out an...
does anyone know if you still get paid out for unused sick time? Don't really wanna alert my etl-hr just yet that I might be leaving but I have a bunch of unused sick time.
I AM MOVING AND MY ATTENDANCE IS GOING BAD !! BECAUSE I AM TRAVELING A FAR DISTANT TO AND FROM WORK, AND MY MANAGERS SAID I AM UNABLE TO TRANSFER DUE TO ATTENDANCE, WHAT SHOULD I DO? I DONT WANNA LEAVE THE COMPANY, JUST GO TO A DIFFRENT SORE
Hi. New team member hired during fourth quarter. Besides for training I could compete myself, no management would take the time to work with me to get the rest signed off.
Well apparently HR was tired of me coming up on the reports and just cleared all my training.
New ESTL-sf just put me on...
Question for other HRTMs:
What do you tell applicants who have been turned down (either before or after an interview) when they ask about their status? I'm just curious what other people do. It's always awkward for me because I can hear the crushed dreams in peoples voices before they hang up...
Hello all,
I used to be a GSTL, but left a few months ago because I was offered my dream job. Before I left however, I was witness to a lot of theft and assorted other prosecutable things. Now, after I've quit, I'm receiving subpoenas to testify on Target's behalf in these cases.
I know that...
I was offered a conditional job as long as I passed the drug and background. It'll be a week exactly tomorrow I went in for the interview on Monday.
I still have not received a email or phone call confirming that I passed background and drug test.
I have a friend who went in for the same...
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 everyone. I've just completed my first week as a seasonal cashier, and I've just remembered that I committed to attending an all-day referee recertification clinic in a few weeks long before I even applied to Spot. Since that's the only clinic in my state that's close to me and I need to...
Hey so I worked 48 hours in 1 week. One of the days that week was a 10 hour day. In a state like CA, where any worked time over 8 hours in one day is considered overtime, how much OT should I recieve?
