Yup, I said it. On a busy Sunday we had one TL alone in our store for several hours. And no, we are not a small format store.
Well that’s Target, Best thing to do is quit and leave that joke sorry company.Yup, I said it. On a busy Sunday we had one TL alone in our store for several hours. And no, we are not a small format store.
So where was the salaried executive?????Maybe the other leads were doing circle signing overnight?
Nope.Maybe the other leads were doing circle signing overnight?
No ETL’sSo where was the salaried executive?????
I wonder what time did they showed up?
Sounds about right. We had a opening hrly key carrier get a meal compliance because the salaried person showed up 6 and half hrs after store opening.No ETL’s
But hey, we got loads of new people so we're all good, right???I've been seeing ETLs do grunt work way more often than ever before...hours cut, etc. Like guys we are going into BTS season. schedule better maybe?
The turnover is also awful. We've had several leave due to health concerns, one person kept getting scheduled for carts when they had a hip problem or something. They quit.

Back before Covid, I was the Closing Lead for two years. No other Leads from 6pm to Midnight, Monday-Friday... I got used to it... eventually.Alone, as in no other leaders in the store.
I loved it when they are told to make sure you have adequate coverage for your departments, but then store leadership is not adequately covered.Back before Covid, I was the Closing Lead for two years. No other Leads from 6pm to Midnight, Monday-Friday... I got used to it... eventually.
We hear this on the front end. Then you as a cashier get told "you need to work faster" when you're one of two cashiers on, or even by yourself.I loved it when they are told to make sure you have adequate coverage for your departments, but then store leadership is not adequately covered.
Used to be that way in our store too but a few months ago they started scheduling more TLs at night so the Closing Lead isn't alone.Back before Covid, I was the Closing Lead for two years. No other Leads from 6pm to Midnight, Monday-Friday... I got used to it... eventually.
I have noticed that at my store this past month.Used to be that way in our store too but a few months ago they started scheduling more TLs at night so the Closing Lead isn't alone.
This is accurate I think. 95% of my shifts were closing, but when I occasionally did mid day shifts there seemed to be more micromanaging and pressure to get tasks done. Closing, it was recovery from the day and leaders usually leave you alone to get your work done. Unless you have an extreme micromanager, which we occasionally had with a certain leader once a month on weekends.One of the benefits of being on the closing team is there seems to be less pressure. Only really have to deal with one or two leaders and they have their hands full. Seems day shift has a clock ticking and management breathing down their necks. No thank you.
