I'm working an off duty detail at one of my local Targets on Black Friday/Thursday this year. I just can't stay away 
In reality, I wanted the money and I could pick up off duty work at either Target or Walmart, so I picked Target since I know how the place runs and I also know Walmart is hell incarnate, especially on Black Friday.

Yep, as bad as we get hit, walmart defintely gets it 100x worst, last year my cousin sent me a vid of some ladies fighting over hand towels...
My tip, especially for newer people, is to at least recognize other tm faces and what department they work in, you'll know who to run to when a problem arises, and it will. And just bring a good attitude, i've already heard the complaints about people who have to come in on BF, but its retail, what did you expect? I enjoyed it somewhat last year, my team has a good sense of humor so it made things easier for sure.
Oh and shower and rinse out after drinking, you don't want to smell like a dive bar heading to work.
Psssssst

It looks legit. However, I have followed bfads.net for years and they usually announce ads as soon as they get them, and then post the scans shortly after that. They don't have it on their site yet.
They also don't have Walmart's, and Target usually waits until they announce hours, then they announce ours.
The ad also doesn't have this year's theme "Together's The Joy."
I also didn't see one product I know we will be having again this year.
Lastly, Target, the last couple of years has released the ad on-line as soon as they decide on the hours to get ahead of these Black Friday ad sites.
The 7A to Midnight hours would make sense because I always said it had to cost more to stay open overnight than the money we brought in.
All of the above being said, if it isn't real, someone has way too much time on their hands to create a prank like this.

Im sure its right. Last year our store was dead from midnight to 9 am I was told. People usually go home sleep and wake up again to start all over. This gives flow more recovery time without guests.
Haha maybe! But I pulled that ad off a random website

Wear a non-red sweater, jacket, or over shirt (or bring one with you for break, lunch, etc.)
Arrive early, parking will be terrible.
Walk the racetrack after you arrive, before you clock in, if you haven't seen it yet, so you know where everything is.
If you're opening/near the doors at open, GTF out of the way. You CAN BE KILLED. It has actually happened.
Schedules should be provided for breaks/ lunches.
