    Archived New Flow TL

    Hello! I'm interviewing for a flow team leader position soon and was just wondering what to expect. The interview is with the DTL, I've already been through 2 interviews with an ETL, and STL & HR. I've been given great feedback and was told I interviewed exceptionally well. If I get the...

    Archived Any other backroom TMs being pushed into another departments due to the new CAF system?

    Let me just start by saying that after hearing of the new CAF system that they will be starting at Target, I knew immediately that one of two things would happen: Hours would be cut, and people would be transferred to new positions or even new departments. After the news was passed down, of...

    Archived New schedules for CAF pulls

    Has anyone started the new CAF pull schedule? Just curious how large they end up being as compared to the old schedules. I'm not quite sure how to staff the changes. Our normal CAFs averaged about an hour.

    Archived Instocks counts

    when doing scans now you can't really change the counts, it just says how many are there. So if a capacity of 2 and you have 100 on hand you just put in 100? I find changing the counts to 0 is easy but finding the product in the back and trying to change the on hands from 0 to 100 is a lot...

    Archived 6AM Truck

    How's everyone who is in a 6am process? I was gone for a couple weeks so my team was lead by other leaders but apparently my team spent about 145-155 a truck which doesn't seem too bad considering guest traffic and the extra tasks. I've heard some DTLs let their stores bowl everything until it's...

    Archived Can someone give me a run down of the aisles that should be grouped together?

    So when you're doing a pull, which aisles should be grouped together in those red bins? (Not sure what they're called) Say you're pulling Plug, Home, Dom, Chem etc. Which can go together and which cannot? This seems to be the only thing I'm not picking up properly. I understand Grocery 1 & 2...

    Archived Double truck coming.

    My store's taking the first double in years, since several years before I started working there. I'm not looking forward to it, but I'm kind of interested in seeing how we deal with it. We never push a truck during open hours, so this'll be different. We typically have a 4am start time, 3am...

    Archived Bulk bike delivery schedule

    In previous years there was a document on workbench detailing the date of the mass bike delivery for the holidays for each store. I cannot find the chart for this year. Anyone know where I can find it?

    Archived MIR & Return Scan

    So entertainment is resetting this week. Entertainment is incredibly light that our store ETLs insist that we flex all d-code/NOP items back onto the floor (which usually results in a really bad score for whoever's doing MIRs). As far as I know, best practice is to backstock d-code and NOP...

    Archived PICK LABEL: IN DEPTH ANALYSIS

    So, this morning ETL challenged my understanding of the pic label. I sort of have a general understanding of it since day 2, but I decided it's time to investigate further and evaluate my understanding of it. I'm doing this backwards. Example 1: Command: Aisle 8 , get item 72 If Main...

    Archived MIR Help?

    The person who usually does our receiving has had to call out for a few days, so they asked me to cover for them because I've had some training. But I never really got trained to do MIRs. I was told our sales floor teams will bring everything back to me once I get it started, as well as the...
