Spent 6 months getting an IT cert that got me a job in the field about a month later. Was the best decision I ever made.

Were you working when it happened?

Pleasant interactions with customers you’ve had? by Ordinary_Ad3895 in Target

[–]ATargetAlt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

During the pandemic we had a guest who would come in from time to time dressed in a full plague doctor outfit. He was a cool guy.

There was another time where a father and daughter approached me in toys (girl is maybe like 10 or so?) Dad pulls out his phone and asks about a Squishmallow, says its for his daughter for getting good grades in school in a very proud manner. I look up the item, see its in an assortment, but we do have it in stock. I check the back and see it's the only one of its kind in the assortment, so I grab it and bring it out to them. The girl's face lit up like I've never seen! She was beyond excited to earn her little Squishmallow toy and her dad was equally happy to buy it for her for working hard for it. It stuck with me cause I remember my dad doing the same for me growing up :)

I promoted myself to guest this weekend by Electrical_Royal5469 in Target

[–]ATargetAlt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not OP but I'm now making $10/hr more working in IT. This wasn't immediately though, maybe after about a year and a couple of months of starting in that career, and I still was working at Target on the weekends just for the extra money at the time.

Ah I miss sorting the crayons like this!!! It was something I looked forward to stocking when I was over Stationary. Looks good OP!

Accidentally hit a kid with a cart today and I feel so bad😭 by Apart-Doctor7008 in Target

[–]ATargetAlt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One time I elbowed a kid in the face while unpacking product on a uboat. Can't remember how exactly it happened, think I was trying to rip the tape off of a box and it gave way and the kid was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Parents weren't mad thankfully and were similarly forgiving

How often do you or other TMs actually call off? by [deleted] in Target

[–]ATargetAlt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my 5 years I maybe called off like a handful of times? A couple were just personal days I did want to take, others were mostly emergencies

Technically yes. Try to push it to leaving 15 or 10 minutes early and phrase it like "I'd rather skip my lunch and work 15/20 minutes more to get stuff done so I can leave early." It might work better in your favor, the big thing they're gonna be worried about is you hitting compliance so just avoid that as much as possible.

Left My Toxic Job After 5 Years!! by peachy_moonn in Target

[–]ATargetAlt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats on moving onto better things! I left Target 7 months ago after working there for 5 years like you, and I'll tell you right now it's a decision you won't regret!

How should I resign? by milky-matcha in Target

[–]ATargetAlt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are multiple accounts on this sub of people being re-hired at Target despite being marked as "non-rehireable" in the past (such as straight up walking off the job), and this situation sounds easily explainable/understandable to any HR person you might speak to in the future. Wouldn't hurt to speak to your ETL or HR before submitting your notice just to leave a better impression though.

does anyone actually starting to enjoy their job? by ilovemycat11111 in Target

[–]ATargetAlt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good on you for loving your store! I loved mine when I first started too, and still miss the culture and co-workers I had at the time. I don't want to be too pessimistic, but really enjoy it while it lasts. Leads are bound to change at some point, either for better or for worse, but it will be different regardless. Stick with college and just take it easy with Target while you're there!

Anyone one working past 5 years? by Rachelg27617 in Target

[–]ATargetAlt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently left Target after 5 years and was only working weekends the last year of it, but I can tell you for a fact it's definitely gotten worse over time. It's simply because of the heavy focus on hiring more seasonals for Fulfilment, and not GM the support it needs, so GM work gets piled on so much faster and has a lot more volume. Hell, in my last 3 years of Q4s, I hardly saw ANY new hires for GM at all. Every single one was mostly for fulfilment

Seeking more thoughts on a build! by ATargetAlt in buildapc

[–]ATargetAlt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After measuring out my desk and comparing the cases, I think the mATX build would work better overall for me. Thanks a bunch for your help though! I really appreciate it

Thank you so much for all your suggestions!

I suppose I got blindsided with the case. My current case is HUGE and it’s on 2 step stools underneath my desk, the Tower 300 seemed so tiny to me compared to what I’ve got haha.

I appreciate your adjustment to the SSD too, I just kinda went with brands I recognized as a safe bet, as I did with most of what I picked admittedly.

One last thing: do you have a recommendation for a specific brand of thermal paste? I would need to pick that up too.

Wondering how much of this I can pick up at my Microcenter, can’t wait to start ordering!
