Yeah that sort of thing is getting updated. But it's mostly just rewording it.
Each pay grade got a $1.00 bump. I've been with target for 6 years and gotten an EX on every review and I was still below the new minimum for my pay grade LAST year when they raised N3 to 9.00! I stepped down from N17 to N13 and barely lost anything this year thanks to the additional dollar.

Maybe my paygrade went up too and I don't even know it. Glad you didn't see that much of a loss! That would really suck.

Is it just me or does it seems like they're spreading themselves thin on varieties of drinks (some of which are ghastly)?
There will be a surge at first roll-out but then interest dies off after guests decide it's not all that tasty/worth the price/status wore off too fast/whatev & it just fades to the background.
Yet, when something flops it takes an inordinate amount of time before they get rid of it.
Meanwhile we're wasting space for components that will expire before they're used unless we find another use for them, usually off-menu.
Dreading what they'll roll out for Q4 this year.

I agree completely. I'm happy to have the brownies back, but they sell as is more than as a trifle. That whole Sunset menu has been a flop at my store. Vanilla sweet cream is the only one that has stayed popular around here (and regular cold brew).
If they want afternoon business, send me wine and cheese.

I don't have to fizz anything 😀.
Agreed. As much as it annoys me, I feel worse for any new team members. They have to learn way more now, even just since they introduced the flat white and latte macchiato. Then add seasonal drinks and these granitas and trifles all summer with all of their components? That's a lot to learn.

This may be a dumb question, a guest stopped me on my way to clock out and asked if she can use a target gift card at Starbucks, I told her likely yes she can but honestly I didn't know, it just made sense. Shel only be able to use it at target starbucks right?

Starbucks iced teas on cartwheel..
That's the best part of the job lol once you figure it out you can just (mentally) tell the ETL to screw off and get some REDcards.

It is especially since they won't know anything to really challenge us.
