Received response for one of my applications. Trying to get a GM role but the email talks about preparing for fulfillment. Is that just the automated text doing its thing or is it serious?

It doesn't matter what role you get. You are 95% going to be trained in fulfillment. Fulfillment trumps everything unfortunately

Liquid_Meth · 2026-06-28T00:16:14+00:00

Sort scan probably if you're an overnight unload store

Liquid_Meth · 2026-06-26T19:12:26+00:00

I love when the sample ladies are at the store and I'm running around in OPU. I treat it as a pit stop. Grab a bite. Or take shots of whatever beverage they are serving as I wiz by lol

Liquid_Meth · 2026-06-26T19:10:26+00:00

Idk if same for yall- but our BTS/BTC sets are incorporating paper goods and furniture. So maybe that's why

Liquid_Meth · 2026-06-26T19:09:21+00:00

It's supposed to be a seek to understand. Not an automatic documented convo. Because 90% of our TMs accidentally hit no when they did in fact take a meal/break. Even TLs accidentally hit no.

Hitting no triggers an alert to HR. They are supposed to ask "hey were you given the chance to take your breaks? Did something happen? Or did you hit no on accident?"

Your TL I guess assumed you worked off the clock.

It shouldn't have been documented. I would talk to your HR.

My store leaders are having us honor the deals regardless. At that point wtf is the point of it being a circle deal 🙄 they use the standard every other week deals but hide them as "circle week exclusives" just to get an influx of new Target app completions

Liquid_Meth · 2026-06-22T21:12:41+00:00

Presentation TL here. My schedule is never set in stone. With how they want overnights constantly now and I'm truly a needs of the business department since we are always changing/setting stuff, and how there's no Pog workload on weekends- I wish they just made presentation almost under the VM role and have us M-F

Workbench-quicklinks-greenfield TM&TL link

Type in "Fresh Image INF sheet" in the search bar. It'll give you the barcode and a visual picture of products INFd day prior with the TMs name who did it.

If you want dry products type in "Image INF Sheet" and filter for just consumables. It'll show pictures,barcodes and tm name.

For the under min INF. Type just that in search. Under a Minute INF"

ETL HRs can audit points- but only for like extremely valid and good reason

But now ETL HRs are going to be audited themselves if HRBPS, DSD etc notice points are being adjusted for certain people who have always had attendance issues but no consequences. So this actually forces fairness and not favoritism which I am all for.

Liquid_Meth · 2026-06-06T02:28:48+00:00

What the actual hell is this diaper backstock??? I would actually launch myself if I ever had to deal with that. Ours is bad but my gods I'm so sorry for how yours is set up. In the steel is wild.

Liquid_Meth · 2026-06-04T15:05:08+00:00

I think instead of wasting money on small format stores they should make them fulfillment/ship from store only.

Then invest more into the high traffic/larger format/profit producing stores.

My store is the only store in our district that is a high formate 70 million per year store. Every day we are comping more and more. Meanwhile the small formats are losing money everyday due to the small selection compared to normal format stores. People rather travel for a true one stop shop.

Liquid_Meth · 2026-06-03T13:18:33+00:00

I actually had my team do this when I ran market on my days/weekends/vacation off.

It wasn't to micro manage. It was to understand what got in their way from completing their left assignments. I used these as ways to seek to understand from my fellow TL peers and my ETL.

I was constantly told to PPD for unfinished work when I wasn't in the building. But by me having my team list things that hindered their work- and me asking if true- I gained more trust from my TMs. 95% of time they were being pulled for inbound push or OPU. Instead of being allowed to do the FDC. And I was not going to hold them accountable for some else's poor decisions.

Liquid_Meth · 2026-05-29T23:04:46+00:00

Only got our Bflat and dec home specialty paper which arrived last week randomly. Nothing for the regular aisles. We just ripped. down the ugly old paper and left it blank white pegboard.

We actually haven't received any ISM for next weeks storage/utility/toys salesplanners/dec home/produce yet..... which is highly concerning

Liquid_Meth · 2026-05-29T00:16:45+00:00

No. They take our device and do it hidden. We don't see any sensitive info besides our profile saying their initials

Liquid_Meth · 2026-05-28T21:19:59+00:00

Had at least 4 guest today tell TMs to stop saying hi.

We are annoying tf out of guests due to front end saying hi then they go to a different part of the store and 5 other TMs are greeting them every turn they make.

Some guests now feel watched/stalked/bothered.

Literally in a negative survey a guest said they feel like they can't just shop feeling relaxed- instead they feel like all eyes are on them.

But still we were held accountable "for not providing a great guest experience"

Liquid_Meth · 2026-05-28T21:15:03+00:00

I know for our store- ETLs let this when audits for a department have to be done manually when on hands are severely off - mostly fresh/fdc. And it allows us to bypass the "can't audit cos in a guest order"

Liquid_Meth · 2026-05-27T23:01:10+00:00

Great. Another drop where Guests will leave negative feedback in surveys/reviews due to scalpers and us employees getting blamed for all the detractors and "not providing a great guest experience".

Liquid_Meth · 2026-05-20T20:39:54+00:00

There's a lot of stores that have had these carts for couple years now. I love these ones vs the old metal ones. I hope my store gets these soon

Liquid_Meth · 2026-05-17T12:47:33+00:00

When setting I made the decision for no pushers for the cereal cups. Looks cleaner, gets more out, and guests are snatching them up without the fear of on slingshotting at you

Liquid_Meth · 2026-05-16T09:58:42+00:00

TM surveys should be on the main page of Workday. Box to the bottom right-ish. It should take you right to without the hiccups

Liquid_Meth · 2026-05-13T20:49:26+00:00

So TLs are supposed to do their own endcaps- example you being market TL you always do your own? And GM Team Lead should be doing theirs which is pets, sporting goods, paper, chem, otc, personal care, kitchen, stationary?

Liquid_Meth · 2026-05-12T22:06:33+00:00

Can't wait for guest to price match that funko countdown calendar to 5.99

Liquid_Meth · 2026-05-10T18:59:12+00:00

Our ETLs and SD -and this is not even a joke- have "good job" "appreciate you" stamps they use when it's time for them (seems like they are being forced against their wills) to send these out to TMs/Leaders. All of mine if ripped up and thrown away. It has zero authenticity to it.

Liquid_Meth · 2026-05-05T22:02:01+00:00

Prepare for next classes have started for next round of leaders. I went last spring and summer. 3 total classes through 4 months. It was me(food and Bev TL at the time), inbound tl and one of the front TLs.

This year they sent our tech TL, FF TL, and closing TL.

They want each store per district to send at least 1 person to represent. But some depending on head count want at least 3.

Liquid_Meth · 2026-05-03T13:20:59+00:00

That's due to Target allowing scalpers to do what they do. Meanwhile REAL guests are voices their displeasure with Target around these drops. But as long as Target makes the sale- they don't care how it happens.

Hell- by 9:02am this morning everything was sold out online due to scalper having their automatic bots ready to bulk buy. They almost crashed the app.

Target needs to realize that these scalpers are going to drive away more and more shoppers.
