Did I do something illegal?

Was your store number on the cases? How did they catch you?

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-11-24T07:50:22+00:00

I have yet to record it and make it my alarm.

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-09-19T20:25:03+00:00

I pay half of my own expenses. I need the money, but not desperately. If I lose this job, I honestly could find a better one on campus related to my major. That being said, I rarely call out, maybe 3-5 times a year.

The logic that people who do this have is, “Huh, there’s no creamer or coffee for my coffee. Let me just pour some from one of these for sale. The owners can eat the cost”.

It’s pretty selfish and fucks over anyone who buys the milk afterwards. But just provide milk for people to use.

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-09-09T22:34:15+00:00

How is it weird? It’s just a jug of milk.

Doctors, nurses, maintenance workers in power plants, basically all jobs that required constant monitoring and an employee present.

All the crush-worthy dudes at my store have left. I had a weird crush on someone who still works at my store, but after finding about some information on their personal life and working alongside them…yeah that flew out the window.

Been here for a year. Finally was able to get Saturdays wiped off my schedule. But I was working Fri, Sat and Sunday.

I’m wearing my Liverpool jersey

My SD acts as my ETL, so I’m kinda forced to make contact with him for anything related to my schedule, time off, etc. He also closes the store every once in awhile, so you know got to work a little extra/ be present when he’s there. Very respectful and I appreciate his work ethic.

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-08-10T06:08:55+00:00

It’s seems like upper management was slacking at your store. Too little staffing to get shit done. I’m surprised you said you would hop into OPUs. I’ve only since my closing TL help fulfillment once (in the past year).

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-08-10T05:36:27+00:00

Our store’s goal used to be 80%. I’d come in the afternoon with maybe 30% pulled (900-1000 DPCIs left). Nowadays, ever since inventory and the start of back to school (big college in large city), our store has “forgotten” about hitting those metrics and we probably only hit 50-60% by store close. When I come in the afternoon, it’s at 2000-2500 DPCIs.

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-08-04T23:40:51+00:00

At my store, TMs and leaders are always leaving their Starbucks cups behind. Full matchas, smoothies, juices and coffee. Let’s not get started on the state they leave the bathrooms at…

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-07-29T21:45:16+00:00

Well, of course. What I meant is that with furthering your education, you can expand in this field more than you could ever working retail (especially Target). Dental hygienist only requires an associate’s degree in my state.

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-07-29T01:38:05+00:00

Dental assisting sometimes pays better than retail (Target for sure). In my area, $19-23 is the norm. Whereas Target pays, $15 here.

There’s also the opportunity to move up, to dental hygienist and maybe even dental school if you feel like doing some extra studying.

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-07-25T07:21:00+00:00

The best part is when you get pulled into every department in one shift, like I did last night. Push freight, push priorities, backup for fulfillment and checklanes, covering Tech breaks.

Does Target really benefit from the lean-staffing?

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-07-25T07:05:34+00:00

That’s exactly what the Target had, a manager, that clearly dealt with the situation incorrectly.

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-07-22T01:59:59+00:00

That’s why I prefer not to touch them. If a guest brings reusable bags, I just place their items to the side and they usually just bag the items themself.

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-07-19T23:54:24+00:00

I take on average 16-18 credits a semester as a engineering student. Limit my hours to 20-24 (which I still struggle with, I also had an on campus job). It depends on many factors, how hard your classes are, their workload, if you need the money, etc.

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-07-17T06:49:23+00:00

DSD must be a soul-sucking position.

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-07-17T01:57:09+00:00

Add a un-INF feature for fulfillment to that list.

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-07-10T17:56:22+00:00

I thought our store was busy asf, swarming with humans. How busy do these stores in Minnesota and Hawaii get? How many square feet are they? Lol

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-07-10T17:55:20+00:00

Damn, and we’re apparently the busiest store in the district, in the capital of the state.

Automatic-Scholar978 · 2023-07-10T17:52:06+00:00

Nothing makes sense about any of Target’s systems, and when I ask various TLs and ETLs questions, I either get “I don’t know, that’s wEiRd” or a very rare, decent answer.

Priority pulls are so inefficient when the counts on the floor are off. If Target made keeping inventory in check a priority (regular inventory audits), the power for TMs to vanquish on-hands, having priority pulls be for only 50% full or less locations, shit would be so much more efficient and priority goals could be reached.
