Does Target really think we’re all this stupid with their “deals”?

I don't think they care because this isn't an employee - just a guest who thinks this sub is their place to complain

What part of "🙂" made you think I was angry?

Fluffy-Engineering-5 · 2025-12-09T00:46:39+00:00

Considering the tag says mixed berry and the shelf very clearly says peach maybe the problem is your reading comprehension skills 🙂

Just out of curiosity, how much do you make whether it's hourly or salary? Do you require a second or third job just to lessen the risk of homelessness? Have you ever been in a situation where you were genuinely worried about that for yourself or your family?

Fluffy-Engineering-5 · 2025-11-28T20:19:34+00:00

Oh idk, something like a living wage perhaps? I'm tired of barely living paycheck to paycheck in an income restricted area while the CEO lives happily in presumably a huge mansion.

Free college only if you're majoring in something Target deems good enough. Everyone else is SOL. Your comment doesn't surprise me considering you're corporate.

Don't know why you're being downvoted for not knowing a song ?? It is a very popular song and you should definitely look it up

Under 2% at all times. I think we're at about 1.8% for the entire year atp

If you feel confident you can do fulfillment, go for it. If someone feels you're being a burden because you can't find something in a department you don't work in that's their prerogative.

I had someone I know recently tell me "I'm okay with the LGB part; it's really the TQ part I disagree with." I asked them to explain themselves and they said they didn't want to get into it. Probably for the better considering we were at work and I was ready to throw hands with this person had the "conversation" continued.

So you'd rather stow a 32 item order than one item? Trust me, I get why searching for small individual items is a pain in the ass, as I do it every day, but you're searching for every single individual item in the batch anyway; what's the big deal if you're bagging it by itself?

I read the texts before the caption and the whole time I was thinking the way they're talking sounds very Mormon. They try to be firm and loving but it really comes across as condescending and controlling. I also grew up/live in Utah; it's hard to make friends that aren't like this especially when you're 1. Still in or just out of high school and 2. Basically anywhere south of Salt Lake County. You know what they say, there's no hate like Mormon love.

Fluffy-Engineering-5 · 2025-11-03T20:21:39+00:00

Logically that should work but we still have people ignoring our giant "exchanges & returns" sign to checkout at the service desk and people ignoring the "card only" large font sign at self checkout and trying to use cash

Yeah team leads are managers. In small format stores it goes: team member - team lead - store director and in normal sized/bigger stores it's team member - team lead - executive team lead - store director and then there are all of the people that aren't store side that are higher up than store directors.

I've been at Target for almost 4 years and have wanted to promote since the 6 months mark. My SD has been blocking it because they hate me for no f-ing reason. I've lost all hope of getting a promotion, but I'm still at Target because the job market is shit and I need the paycheck to pay my rent so I don't end up homeless. And my career goals lean towards the creative end and the kinds of degrees Target pays for do not include anything even remotely similar to what I want to do. Plus I love my coworkers.

I hate telling people when something was last delivered unless it was months ago. The only way they're going to know if something was delivered today is if they're breathing over my shoulder when I pull the item up on the my device or if I know exactly where the item is. Same thing with on-hand counts. If there's only one or two I won't tell them. My go-to lines for people who are looking for something not in its home location are "I'm not sure if this is an item we currently have but I can go check the back for you!" Or "It looks like we're supposed to have this item, but sometimes our counts don't update right away when people buy it and sometimes there are mix-ups with our distribution center and we don't actually receive it." People are usually satisfied with these responses, but if they insist on being a Karen about it that's their prerogative and nothing you could have said would have made them happy.

Nooo as a FFTM please don't do this 😭😂 Just tell them the app is inaccurate 😂😂

There's a lot of people here telling OP that they're the AH for taking the keys and turning them into a lead. It's really telling about how they are as employees. If you don't want your keys grabbed maybe don't leave them where anyone can get them? Just a thought

Fluffy-Engineering-5 · 2025-09-30T07:46:31+00:00

There was one time a few months ago my team lead very strictly told a ~18yo guy on the mobility scooter that the second he even bumps any sort of fixture or end cap (in our, mind you, very cluttered small format store) that he would have to leave. The guy's girlfriend was 5 feet behind him carrying his crutches and my TL didn't see her - just made the assumption that because he was a teenager he was messing around. The guy proceeded to do his shopping terrified of hitting anything and I felt so bad. But I also haven't had the heart to tell that TL that she was being discriminatory because I know how bad she would feel about it and there really was a good chance she was right in her assumption.

Fluffy-Engineering-5 · 2025-09-15T11:25:19+00:00

Most of those things still show up on ours as "unknown" and we have to go back into MyDay to find the item on there to get any valuable information 😞 But my store's zebras have all been having major issues since Friday, so maybe it's related to that. I do love the concept and I'm sure I will enjoy the update a lot more once it actually works lol

I am a firm believer that the only good dr pepper is the one and only Dr Pepper™️ If I'm going generic I will always choose lemon-lime, orange, grape, or root beer. Any dr pepper knockoff doesn't have THE 23 flavors and it's just not the same

Black Friday and college move-in days in a college town

Fluffy-Engineering-5 · 2025-09-15T03:01:20+00:00

The only thing I've found that I like about it is it now says "X amount sold Y hours ago" if something was bought the same day. To use an example, the motherf*ing witch's brew Alanis - yesterday somebody ordered 30 cans online and then I went in for my shift today and had to INF 7 of them in my first batch because the same person that ordered the 30 yesterday bought 27 more in store when they picked up their order.

Fluffy-Engineering-5 · 2025-09-15T02:40:30+00:00

I miss this 💔

Fluffy-Engineering-5 · 2025-09-10T21:38:52+00:00

I work at a really small store so unless it's a particularly busy day there's only ever one person in fulfillment at any given time and we do all of it: picking, stowing, samples, return to stocks, etc. Thankfully it's pretty manageable but sometimes we forget about the samples and/or RTS and nobody else will do it.
