Great thread. Just want to thank the OP and contributers. These abbreviations are way too overwhelming for a new team member.
 
Does "Vibe" stand for anything? If not, it should stand for, "Very Important to Be Excellent."
 
I know what a rig is, I just want to know what RIG means. Like Random Inventory Generator? I have no idea, it's driving me nuts.
 
what does backstock mean, and where is the excess product sent ?
flow tm noob
 
Back stock is pretty literal. Product that's stocked in the back. All excess lives in the backroom.
 
Helpful hints for a new person such as myself. Except that once I thought of POS as Piece of S*** when I had my first job at Taco Bell, I can never go back

Trust me, at Target, the terms are interchangeable. We don't just have a POS, we have a POS POS.

Our POS is very much a POS.

When someone first told me that's what it was called, I had to ask if that was literally the acronym or if it was something they made up because I couldn't believe the hilarious coincidence that the registers had the same acronym as "piece of shit".

When they first told me at my first job I had to stop and look at them and asked if they were serious.
 
Stupid question, but is there a difference between "Spot" and "Target"? I only ask because I just saw someone use both words in the same sentence...

The logo is a bullseye with a spot in the middle of it. The target dog has a spot over 1 eye. Target & spot are the same thing, less letters to type.
