Not anymore, but this use to be quite common to get people to quit without having to do the correct way of following up, documenting, or writing up.
And that’s what is wrong this new and improved Brave New World thing we got going on.
Oh wow you really must be new. Because this is exactly what Target does. We also redefine core roles to push our ADA individuals, when in reality nothing substantial changes that reasonable accommodations can not be made.
Can't speak to how Market or A&A TMs are scheduled, but I don't think this is how it's done at my store. Might have something to do with who has which areas as DBOs, but it seems like certain former flow TMs who work our butts off, are team players, and really do know our areas are scheduled consistently more hours than certain others. It's not a huge difference, so maybe it's within a range? Haven't taken the time to really look hard at the schedule, just going by what I hear from TMs and over the walkie. I have less availability (because of another job) but get more hours than some who have more availability.
We don’t schedule poor performers less hours. However, if we notice someone consistently posting their shifts or calling in we do have a conversation with them about how much they would like to work. It’s a curtesy we extend mostly to cover our butts. We aren’t going to cripple the store and throw away payroll because some people don’t feel like going to work that day. We had seven call outs before noon today and I’m at a ULV, it’s rough when the shit hits the fan.
That's similar to my situation although for me it's due to my need for availability during the business day for temporary (non-target) office work.
Who knows?MoDeRiZaTiOn works better in certain areas of the store than others based on overall workload vs hours. Allot of koolaid drinkers on this forum are saying it works for the front end so you just suck in doing it in GM. They believe just replacing the entire team with new team members will make the Impossible done, because its only not possible because a bad team members attitude. 4 hours scheduled vs 8 hours worth of work will never get done by even the most crack head koolaid snorting I love MoDeRiZaTiOn and wear red and khaki on your day off, skipping to the time clock target fanboy.Somebody mentioned that these modernization changes are being phased in slowly so that existing TMs and TLs don't all quit at the same time. I can't speak to other sections of my store, although I've heard seen and heard about some of their problems. Our front end S&E seems to be adapting fairly well to the changes, and as a GA TM I'm getting used to the changes. ASANTS, it might be good news for how modernization might be successful and that our SD/STL, SE ETL and others are navigating this better than many. It also could be the "boiling frog" approach of graduallykilling offbumping out the (old) experienced frogs but not all at once
In order to be "store" ready everything should be in its designated spot. If you find items and are putting them in the back but not locating them then you're the problem. Also you are both the truck and backroom since both processes play a part in the "guest-ready" horn you're tooting. For the record LOD left when modernization started. We're all one big "Leadership" family👍🏻
I agree with @busyzoningtoys as far as closing the store goes. It's not a question of throwing things on a shelf without locating them, at least not in my store - it's a case of dayside TMs leaving their freaking racks and tiers out on the floor, half-filled with crap including their drinks, and often their radios and zebras. I always wonder how and why this happens - I envision the TM just going along doing their "work", and then looking at their phone and going oops, shift's over, time to go, and just leaving their crap right there on the floor and walking away. Drives me insane.
I understand that, it just is not being followed at my store yet. We say LOD all day every day.
We actually do say PML, but I think that's the only one we use.
You can coach till you’re blue in the face. It’s not going to up morale or retain employees who are good and know their worth. They just hired 25 replacements so they can coach them to a bloody pulp as well. I doubt that 10% of them will ride it out until fall, so coach away and enjoy working 4th q by yourself.
We pull our auto like usual. Then, each day we pick a new shelf in the backroom and scan each item. If the on floor and backroom counts don't equal the on hand, then we pull that item and fill the floor to capacity, update SFQ, then backstock any remaining. This is to take priority regardless of truck push
I’m technically the opening LOD since I run inbound. I open the store and handle LOD responsibilities until the other GM’s and ETL’s/SD comes in.
You’re not into modernization yet and you only have until September to get there. Sucks to be you.
