TTOTM: I know that your only job is to bale cardboard and throw away trash for flow. I Know it has almost no human communication and it basically just sucks.. but dont bark at me when I leave 3 boxes on your cage when the LAST time I tried putting my own boxes in the baler you flipped out and called me stupid. I also dont need you to tell me not to add 5 hangers to the overflowing hanger bin. Its 5 freakin hangers and the extra bin was falling apart because it got wet. What the heck do you want me to do? I can put together that bin in you want and when it starts to get full it will explode everywhere..

On a positive note.. when we had a visit with 30 minutes notice it was awesome to see all our LODs jump on a register, start pushing See Spot, and clean up a diet coke explosion in cafe.. We really did appreciate it and it makes me respect you a little more to see you help out. Now if only you would do it when your tail wasnt on the line...
 
To the higher ups...

I appreciate that you are doing something fun for us in the form of an Easter egg hunt. I'd like it more if I was personally told about it and how it worked, oh, and if I could just draw something out of something because gasp, I had non-stop guests and didn't have a chance to zone to hunt for them. Then, excuse me for eating on my break instead of hunting eggs like other peeps. I'm not going to go hunting for eggs when I get off either like one GSTL suggested....

So everyone enjoy their extra breaks and goodies, I will keep on never getting timed out of my register.
 
I complained up there, but thanks etl-hr for randomly giving me all those Thursdays off just after I started watching Scandal (binge watched a while back to start watching live when the last hiatus ended)

TTOTM: I'll admit, for a new employee, you have been doing good work. But there is no need to constantly tell everyone how you used to be a manager at two other retail establishments, and that you think you need paid more for what you're doing here. You've been here less than a week. Chill out.

Ughhhhhh. You just hit the nail on a team member who used to do this all the time before. When they were new I remember distinctly one time at closing when they were zoning the checklanes and I was closing the registers and they said "You know, I used to do your exact job at my last job. I can probably do it here too." I just kinda nodded and "uh-huhed" while they continued to point out how they used to collect the coupons too, how the banks were similar...I'm just thinking this is not how you act when you're new on the job, or even not how you show you're overqualified for a position. Then, when they would ask to get cross trained in other areas, it was always "I mean it's not that hard, I've been a manager at plenty of stores before so I'm very capable."

I didn't think my eyes could roll that far back until that moment.

Oh, I think that person used to work at my store....the operative words are "used to" ;)
 
I have been not posting....because I think most of mine are truly unique to this store but I am going to bust if I don't rant a little.
to the brand team members throughout the store...you all are awful
to the team member who complained to me on Saturday,"When I am brand and if they give me GBI I will through a fit if they put tm J in that area." A)not a done deal that you will be brand B) you and 3 other team members ordered TM J around and your noses were put out of joint when she said"I will wait to hear it from the chief " C) You do nearly nothing on your own and TM J was running circles around you D) By that phrase alone you are not ready to be a leader.

to TM J....thank you for laughing when I did a curtsy and said "that's how you lead" after talking to one of those B's from above. thank you for thinking I was a team lead (she just told me that....I guess others echoed it in a "chat" I wasn't informed of...or invited to) thank you for asking what my last day was and saying maybe I will make it my last day too...because it won't be any good here without you.

thank you to the other tm who said something similar at a different time.

to the leadership....these 2 tm's are two of the best workers you have and you have belittled, overworked, and underappreciated them to the point of they are seriously contemplating quitting. YOU ARE ASS WIPES!!! Because you are doing it to each and every one of the team members except a select few (not even "favorites"....of which I am told I am one...HAH!!)

to the corporate people....how are any of our ETL's still employed by Target? And honestly, all but 2 of our Senior TLs and TLs

to HR ETL you are inept.....thank goodness our tm is back because in 2 days she has done way for me and my transfer than you did in 3 weeks.
 
To the ETL's at my old store:
Congratulations you picked the one person in the entire store to replace me who could stick to it and cared enough to put up with the craziness.
But he told you he would be leaving after 4th quarter and so far you have put a half dozen people to train with him.
They have all quit in disgust.
He's not going to stay much longer.
Good luck.
 
To those many TM's,

How is it that I am told my work area is cake, yet when I take a few days off I come back to a months worth of work because YOU GUYS can't get it done. Then get told, "I don't know how you do this?!" EVERY TIME! Makes me so angry inside! It really, REALLY does! :mad:
 
To the instocks team: There are like 6 of you and it's well after 11. There's no reason why you guys can't respond to back-up.

To the GSTL and LOD: Don't call me out for not responding to back-up when I did, in fact, say that I was with a guest.
 
To that TM who kept showing me her new smartphone last month and that it only costs her $250 and $160 a month for 2 lines, don't come crying to me that your power will be turned off by tomorrow if you don't pay it by 9am !

I could like this a million times and it still would not sufficiently express how much I feel you on this one!
 
we finally got a truly surprise visit in almost 2 years recently and management got caught with their pants down...no ETL to be found in the building....and our store looked like trash and WAAAY too many blank spaces/voids on the floor. I see a shake up coming (FINALLY)

to TM J....enjoy your lower work hours now that you are giving the ASS WIPES your 2 week notice.
 
To the one GSTL who I happened to like (up until I got my review tonight from the other GSTL): I fell for your shit. I actually believed that I was doing a good job. Then I get my review tonight from the other GSTL (that the ETL would have signed off on) saying how lousy of a GSA I am. I will absolutely never fall for your bullshit again. You've done me no favors in letting me think I was decent at my job. So go fuck yourself.

To the GSTL who did my review...you also can go fuck yourself. You've never had anything positive to say to me, and are constantly itching to point out how lousy of a TM you think I am. So today you had your chance. Good for you. I hope you enjoyed that. Also, if you have to go on and on to try to convince me how approachable you are, then that should be a pretty bit hint that you are, in fact, completely unapproachable.

I have no idea how I am supposed to go in and be GSA tomorrow night knowing you all think I suck at it. Thanks for nothing.

I was told that the tm's who move into a higher position (GSA, GSTL, TL) the first year they will only ever get an IE....we have lost many a GSTL over reviews (only one was I sad to see go) and my poor TL only ever gets a E and she is the best in the store.
 
I got an E, so I guess I should be happy...but with pretty much nothing nice to say, it sucked. If it weren't for nearly guaranteed full-time hours, I would step down. Immediately.
