Archived Ethics Training .... Joke!

[unknown]

Anyone else take the Ethics Training on the computer? What a joke.

First, Brian gets on there and yammers about how ethics is our business. Really Brian?

Two things about it I'll mention.

1. If the decision you are about to make became public, would it be viewed positively? Um, let's see. Target denies people benefits by purposely keeping them part time. Target pushes people out for a variety of reasons not related to their work. Oh yes, all unprovable. Nothing is said about .... if it saves money.

2. The fire tunnel. I laughed out loud. Our fire tunnel was blocked except for a two foot walkway. Apparently, I'm supposed to email, call, or write someone about this. And it was the first question on the quiz. Such a joke.

It's actually repulsive to know it's all for show. "We have ethic's training."

 

[fun at target]

My store has a total of 5 computers in the whole store outside of stl/etl offices
2 for hr
1 in receiving
2 for the TLs to share
So alot of the computer training is skipped unless its mandatory to do

My store screenshot it and had you read and initial it.

Can't just read it. You have to take a quiz. Seems like huge waste of time if it doesn't matter.

My store printed it all out and we just have to read it and they’ll key it.

That fire tunnel question tells you they know its blocked in most stores and are covering their ass when people are killed by saying we had a channel employees could report, so its their own fault they got hurt. That is all that question is - Covering their own ass, they are not going to do anything about it.

Unless those people killed are customers. And kids. I guess Brian doesn't care about dead kids.

I guess ASANTS there. Do they do that with other trainings as well?

First time I've seen it for something that has a quiz, yeah. It's almost certainly not allowed, but it matters about as much as this silly quiz does. I loved the question that had answers that were essentially:
A: yes
B: maybe
C: no
D: all of the above

That and the one that encouraged team members to call the hotline if they were unsure about something, but failed to specify anything at all.

Well thoughts and prayers are supposed to work against mass shooters, should work fine against fire.

Target is on fire!

ETL : you have outs in your department.

Nope. The answers on the quiz we're already circled for us.

 

[Bosch]

Nope. They answers on the quiz we're already circled for us.

That sounds like my training for the wave and the crown, "here sign this." You are certified. Never touched either machine.

 

[Planosss]

As for calling/emailing someone about the fire hall, have you?

 

[commiecorvus]

Nope. They answers on the quiz we're already circled for us.

Seriously WTF!

So they are unethically handling the ethics training?
The irony there is painful.

 

[atceiah]

I have pics of the "fire hall" just for this reason lol

Fire hall, rear corner fire doors, fixture room, and door to Electronics backroom. I need to get a higher capacity SD card for my phone!

Same at mine 😬😭

Oh yeah, there's also the "no retsliation" item too. I wonder how much longer I'd be at Target if I actually did followed Target's own stated ethics? Lol.

I've been in 2 stores and never had fire tunnel issues, fix your shit, dawg.

My last store, way back we would hand out surveys to random team members. A number of times when I got it I marked down pallets infront of electrical doors.

I didn't get many more of those.

 

[Dapper]

They didn’t even print anything for us, we just wrote our tm number and signed on some piece of paper and we were done haha

It wasn't an issue until q3 last year. Since then, it's been mostly blocked. The dtl and business partners have all seen it.

 

[can't touch this]

TIL that the self-perception of corporations doesn't quite match up with reality

It's crazy reading about fire aisles in other stores. There was maybe one day where ours got kinda bad (like 3 carts/flats along the left wall, with probably 70% unblocked and a clear path to the door). But on most days it's just technical violations, like someone leaving their uboat outside the bathroom while they drop a deuce, etc.

I can't imagine being in a management position and allowing that to happen. I know "cameras to coach" is kind of a weird thing with Target, but for safety issues like that, I know I would at least be looking for the offenders and talking to them off the record if nothing else.
