Archived I love target because

[Kuroyume]

... of the people. Work is work but the people with whom you work says a lot about why you work there. I haven't met an a-hole (yet) since working at my store. Even when you aren't perfect, they explain and guide and help. And they HELP. Even the TLs will do the TM work when we're short. That is a rarity at other places.

As an aside, I love the TL who keeps switching the Crown to 'turtle-mode' on me as if I don't know what I'm doing. I have like 5 years experience with a pallet jack (no thinking required), more than a year with various forklifts (driving, standing, now the beast known as the Crown), and I'm working the Wave better than many in the BR. Even I willfully admit that my proficiency isn't in 'coordination' (except playing guitar) but this stuff is easy. He will submit eventually. 😀

Box him in with the fork at crotch-level.
He won't do that any more.

.... Because if I get an etl I hate, I know they'll be gone soon. Damn Target burns through them.

 

[tgtfla]

you know you can always outlast the bad ones.

 

[Patty]

Because they didnt fire me... yet
They are always there to help if i ask
They have been nice to me!!!

 

[LazerKitty]

I have to say I love Target because they gave me a job during a rough patch in my life. I'm greatful for that everyday.

 

[Bosch]

Quote for truth. I have out lasted two complete leadership changes, every single ETL and TL in the joint.

 

[Kartman]

I love Spot cuz they leave me alone and let me do my thang.

Indeed... There is a sort of sick twisted yet unfortunate level of one up-man-ship when you realize that these poor sobs are (relatively) getting more screwed over then you are.


ON a positive note... Target isn't the worst place I've worked at, but boy lately it sure is trying hard to get close to it.

I love Spot cuz they leave me alone and let me do my thang.

Your living the dream... I wish that were the case for me... but lately some no nothing has been micromanaging the business, which is extremely frustrating.

 

[Rdhdstpchl]

You are given the opportunity to move up within very quickly and because everyone is very accepting and caring.

Huh, I have yet to find that true

 

[mrknownothing]

In target everyone at least speaks English

Whhhaaaaaaat? I love our spanish-speaking TMs, but I can't even imagine a store without them.

Our store team speaks English (with a handful of bilingual folks), but the contracted cleaning crew doesn't. Used to drive our old PMT crazy because they couldn't understand him and he couldn't understand them.

 

[Kartman]

If you can't speak English, you need to learn how - toot sweet!!!

 

[dannyy315]

I love it when a guest asks for my name because I was super helpful to them. It's nice to know I had a positive impact on their day.

 

[Loki]

Because red and khaki is my favorite color combination.

 

[zer0nhand]

I enjoy being slaved.

 

[commiecorvus]

I enjoy being slaved.

But most ETLs are so poorly trained to be doms.
They don't even understand the concept of safe words.

 

[MrGeppetto]

I like the sense of teamwork and, the balance of occasional good vs. stressful times.
I'm sure I can add more reasons but my feet are tired, and I type with my feet.

 

[Noiinteam]

I love the physicality of being on flow. I should be a stick. I'm more like a limb.

 

[Kompa]

Walmart is not worse than Target

 

[Kartman]

Sure it is.

 

[tomthy]

Because honestly I prefer to be at work (with people I like) than at home (where I've been locked away for years).

 

[jenna]

Whether you work there or not they are always friendly and helpfull.

They will let you know when your doing a good job and help you improve on the thing that need work !

Umm I like some things tgt sells. They're the one place I can find pb dream chobani.

My store's been out of pb dream for weeks. I found it at shop rite today, though! So I take that one back.

I am enjoying the wellness discount! I just quit lipitor because of side effects and I gotta eat better. The discount on the vegetables I'm experimenting with is nice. Discovered I don't hate cauliflower last week. So yay for that. Trying kale next. I'd default to collards but my store doesn't carry them (*whispers* if anyone has a recipe for kale, feel free to share)

It gives me practice on performing physically challenges and obstacle courses if I'm ever on a game/reality tv show...

No safewords.... "Sounds exciting!" Said the CEO
