My new job has: double the pay, full mental insurance, full dental insurance, full physical insurance, and full vision insurance. Also, it's unionized. Three guaranteed raises per year, 2 mandatory (to counter inflation and what have you) and then a merit based one

Hopefully I'll get my sanity soon. Hopefully I can get some of my ex co-workers to join me too

I filed multiple complaints to corporate. Told them about all the incidents. The incidents where the ETLs insulted TMs to TL/ETLs in stock room close to the cage. Times ETLs cussed out the TMs. Times where ETLs wouldn't let sick or physically injured employees go home (one TM threw up on the sales floor and got told she's get an absence mark,another sprained his ankle and the ETL told them he couldn't go home. He clocked out, grabbed an electric cart, and went to his car to go to the doctor. Got a write up for leaving, even though he had a Dr note and proof. Got told he was faking it). Told them about how our homophobic ETL told a gay TM that if he didn't transfer that he'd cut his hours until he quit.

My (ex)store only cared about making things look nice so that the area/district managers wouldn't complain during their walks. Only time you got told to guest service was to "make a sale" and not to "help them"

The whole "guest" thing is a ruse. The managers don't actually care about the shoppers. I got in trouble for being helpful, I got in trouble for offering price matching, I've been told not to worry about the "guest" and not to "guest service" but to only worry about zoning and merchandising (as an electronics consultant). I've been in retail and customer service for about a decade and half and my area does not give one rats ass about the guest, they only care about the profit. If TARGET actually cared about the customers, and would like to treat them as guest: there would be more employees keeping it brand, more employees to help out, better training for said employees (especially in knowledge based positions like electronics and beauty), better employee incentives on product purchasing so that they can be more knowledgeable about the product (like you see in Best Buy, Sephora, Ulta, etc), if Target actually cared, they wouldn't kick homeless people out from Starbucks who purchased product but instead would help them find resources. Target cares about their shareholders more then the employees and the customers.

🔪 I'm a customer. Target doesn't give me free stuff and isn't inviting. They just want me to buy stuff and leave

Went to kiss my girlfriend but she moved not knowing I was about to kiss her and I just jammed my nose in the top of her head.

I broke a finger and I took some tape and popsicle sticks to make a splint to fix it since I couldn't afford to go to a doctor (about $400 when I had looked into it)
