T'was a time when much of women's dress shoes looked like a hooker's wardrobe: 4" stilettos in black patent, red croc, gold glitter, lace-up platforms, thigh-hi red vinyl boots, etc - like a Frederick's of Hollywood catalog.

Not everyone can blow a few hundred dollars on prom. Some kids come from working class or working poor families and have a very, very limited budget.

Target has a good price point but not many dressy shoes. That's why I wouldn't look at Target for dressy shoes. I did find her a pair. She was very tall and wanted flats. She loved a pr of Sam and Libby.

Well I guess my actual point was target shoes are ugly

There are some cute ones that I would very much love to wear, some of the fancier sandals, some of the ankle high boots, some of the office-appropriate heels. But Target doesn't carry my size, so all I can do is window shop.
 
I got my junior prom shoes from Walmart. When you can't spend more than $150 overall your choices are very limited, so you're forced to buy ugly shoes lol

That's when you pretend to be really quirky and unique and "too cool for prom" and wear Converse or Boots.

What? But don't you want everyone to know how creative and rebellious you are? Everyone needs to know you're just a casual girl who's like, such a total free spirit! Lmao.

My niece picked up a bridesmaid's dress at the thrift store, ripped off the bodice & made a waist for the skirting (crinolines & all).
She then dyed it to match a satin camisole she'd made.
Chez originale, that girl.
 
To that TM who packs the repacks for softline , could you please put the hangers in there, and all the pieces ...
The baby clothes still come in wrapped in heavy plastic and a cardboard ...
17 items came in like that in the last truck and we don't have enough hangers as it is ...

mostly everything in our dry section is in pushers: dressings/condiments aisle, pastas, parts of snack aisles such as cheez its, etc, but not the bar aisle! i'm gonna suggest it to my TL because that area always always always gets so bad
 
TTOTM: Clearly your store does not give the phone duties to a SL team member and maybe that's the problem. But when I called, I was not planning my future shopping trip, I had a guest right there. And the guest was so attentive that when I read off the dpci for the size she needed, she immediately was trying to tell me that I was one number off from the tag in her hand. (Of course idiot me didn't realize why she was tapping the number on the tag repeatedly until near the end of the call. Oops!) So when you said that the my device said you only had one and that means you probably didn't actually have it, I'm pretty sure she heard you and I know she heard me when I said "Can you check?" and that she's probably smart enough to know why I had to ask that even if she didn't hear you. There was no reason for the attitude in your voice when you said you would transfer me to SL.

TTOSLTM: You rock! Next time I'm at your store, your Starbucks drink is on me.

Same folks who start a wedding registry at Walmart?
Click to expand...
Actually, my youngest and her husband did. This was a couple of years before we moved down to NC and many years before I started working at Target. If they had had Walmarts and registries back when I got married (1972) I probably would've.
 
when I'm stuck at SCO most days for 8 hours, I've gotta piss, right? I'm good friends with all of my cart attendant buddies and sometimes I gotta pee and I just go "hey can you just cover me for a minute or so I just gotta pee real quick" and you know they would be like "sure man go ahead! I'll watch because I'm ahead and if it's not that long!" and I'm never gone for more than 2 minutes.

Well, today I had to go... again. The cart attendant working tonight is another really good friend of mine, but I know he's kind of a little biotch. He's also having a bad day at school because apparently his teachers treat him like he's 11. But, instead of having to make my GSTL or GSA or another cashier take over, I asked him. He goes "huh tough shit" and I'm like "[cart attendant name] plz it won't be more than a minute." and he replies "okay whatever if youre gone for more than a minute i'm leaving im gonna be counting." and I'm like "pfft watch me." and so I go pee, fast as I can, and I speed walk back down and I ask him if he's impressed.

"YOU TOOK A MINUTE AND 40 SECONDS" and I wish he was joking. Legitimately triggered over that. I call bullshit and print out my speed id and he's still droning on, I for some reason think he's joking still, so I shoot back and trigger him. I forget what happened in these 5 seconds but it ended with me calling him a big baby.

So as I finish up my speed ID he walks around to the front of the check lane and says "Uh, excuse me, I forgot who's the one suppose to be watching self checkout?" and I tell him "Well I asked if you could for a second, you could of said no, but you didn't, did you?" and at this point I'm getting irritated. He needs to really get out of my face lol.

So I turn around and walk back to watch self checkout and he's following me and still droning on... LOUDLY mind you... about how he's doing my job while I pee for "longer than a minute" and he's still droning on, my smile disappears, and the sudden urge to just fire back is chained because I'm in a work place, but obviously he doesn't care.

So yeah, probably the most pathetic, petty, and annoying thing that happened today happened to be from a team member, all because he counted that I took way more than a minute peeing while he idly watched. No harm done to him, but apparently there was lol.

I messaged him after my shift and he says he wasn't triggered, but he was just being a smart ass... yeah, an annoying, salty, smart ass. Needless to say, it's whatever lol, I'm over it and I ended on a good night of cashiering.
 
PPTL: if the pricing person calls out again tomorroq I don't care I'm not doing it.

Pricing makes me want to throw myself in front of a bus

Holy shit I'm about to lose my mind this is so fucking TEDIOUS

Ugh I know. The noise of the PDA or Mydevice beeping when I do price change makes me want to shove my head through a wall, especially when I wind up doing the backroom items. The only reason I enjoy pricing is because that's my closest friend in the store's job and we have a blast working together.
