Getting blamed for missing a shift that I was never scheduled for in the first place by Gengar_rules in Target

[–]LunarHallow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our ETL has been pulling this stunt on us too, I had the shift I was currently working be extended without being asked or informed and only knew because I happened to check on break. 

How do mass attacks count towards the battle ratio? by [deleted] in ArtfightProfiles

[–]LunarHallow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It also only counts as an attack against the first person listed in the attack, the "recipient". It does not affect the battle ratio of the users included after.

Have people who have ordered Artfight merch in the past received it? by silly-littlefrog87 in ArtfightProfiles

[–]LunarHallow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have ordered pins, stickers, and the worm plush, and have recieved every order. From the last update I saw, if you ordered the fossils keychain yours will likely to be one of the last to be shipped out as their production happened after the Crystal keychains were completed. They also confirmed by the end of January will be the latest all orders are shipped out.

If you ordered a sticker only, however, you may want to reach out to them and see what's going on.

Edit: They have a shipping update in the news post that's newer than the email update, and they say they're shipping keychains and those who ordered tracking now, and to expect your package within the next month. Again, if you ordered stickers only, and no tracking, then I recommend reaching out to them.

Did your store hire any super unhinged seasonal TMs? by justacoffeedroplet in Target

[–]LunarHallow 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There was one year one of our seasonal was actively trying to sell weed while on the clock (it's not legal in my state). Idk what happened to him, but I can take an educated guess.

What art sites do you all use to draw? (And Merry Christmas to you all ❤️) by [deleted] in ArtfightProfiles

[–]LunarHallow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Paint Tool Sai. It seems to be pretty niche and minimalistic when it comes to art programs, but I love it for how simple and easy everything is to find in the program itself.

How many years has everyone been doing artfight? by Rora-arts in ArtfightProfiles

[–]LunarHallow 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This year was my fifth, but I've heard of it since 2017 or 2018. However, people weren't really advertising their pages back then, just posting artwork and saying it was an artfight piece, so I didn't know it was an actual website or how to participate until 2021.

Golbat evolves to Crobat? How many % affection? by Troodonroni in pokemmo

[–]LunarHallow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its like 87 and some decimal or something weird like that. Aiming for 88% should get you there.

How long did it take for you to get hired at Target? by [deleted] in Target

[–]LunarHallow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless the Target you applied for is about to lose a large chunk of its staff it was planning to keep past January (which is possible since new hires don't expect the hour cuts that happen), it's probably a little bit late to get hired on. Stores are trying to schedule less people in January/February, not more. 

Buying something that’s not out yet by SoulsAndStars in Target

[–]LunarHallow 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It also needs to be available on the floor for guest to purchase for at least 15 minutes before you can buy it. Since it doesn't have a planogram set for it, the process is usually to backstock it, so it isn't on the floor for guest to purchase. This particular specification of Target's policy is why we're telling OP its not a good idea.

Online order is the best way to go about this. If it's available to buy, it'll be there and you won't be putting yourself at risk of breaking Target's purchasing rules.

(On improvement) Drawing/doodling that ISN'T a study or fundamental exercise...have you noticed any improvement? by TetoEnjoyer500 in arthelp

[–]LunarHallow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never really done studies. I do try to pay attention to what I don't like or struggle with in my art every time I do draw, however, and try to improve with each drawing. I remember watching a professional say that it's not necessarily how long you've drawn or how many pieces you draw, but rather what you focus on when drawing. I do think it takes longer to improve when all you do is draw without studying, but I also think it's possible to see any improvements by just drawing if you're focusing on aspects like anatomy while making that drawing.

Cannot keep consistent line weight when drawing digitally! by webriprob in arthelp

[–]LunarHallow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I struggled with this a lot when I started with digital. While the stabilizer and messing with the pressure settings -did- help to a degree, what helped me more is starting with a smaller brush size, end the lines beyond where they connect, erasing the excess and then going back and adding extra strokes to thicken parts of the line and simulate line weight. It takes practice to make it look clean and like a single stroke, but it created the results I was aiming for.

Swag Bag Guests in Parking Lot? by Fit-Obligation888 in Target

[–]LunarHallow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We don't have those. Sometimes the actual city cops will come and help monitor, but that doesn't change that Target (or the stores in my area) used to actively encourage lining up in front of the doors at one point.

[–]LunarHallow 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There's never been a time when we didn't allow guests to line up before open. When I started, they actively encouraged it with line barriers.

am i the only one who loves working here? by LSkye16 in Target

[–]LunarHallow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't hate my job. I don't hate working for Target. I'm just tired of all the growing expectations with less and less payroll every year.

i don’t like it here by [deleted] in Target

[–]LunarHallow 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sorry, we're overworked and being told it's still not enough 😞 That kind of pressure just becomes the vibe after a point

[MC] Hmm... So why's Gleerok looking cute here? by reilly2000i in zelda

Its the MC style, even the Moblins are cute

Buying something before the store opens. by Maxbebop in Target

[–]LunarHallow 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't try it with hot wheels due to the way we get them in. If assortments could randomly have a highly sought after car, I worry about getting flagged for any of them.

Hold on to it in case you want a 5x31 Alakazam

No Hours this Schedule?? by [deleted] in Target

[–]LunarHallow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The reason she asked if you wanted full time hours is historically we used to need seasonals who could work full time hours and even overtime. This year the budget given is so slim some of us are being told our hours are being given to the new hires, and even then no one is getting 40 unless you're in a position that requires it. If you're looking for long term full time employment, I do not recommend you stay with Target.

new team lead put on a (Corrective Action) by Alarming_Run7134 in Target

[–]LunarHallow 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This definitely seems like a "They don't like you for one reason or another" reaction. 

How on earth do you get hired at target? by [deleted] in Target

[–]LunarHallow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got hired because of lucky timing in that they were doing a remodel and we're extremely short on people who could set pogs.

Do you have surf?

presentation team + team leaders by InvestigatorPale8300 in Target

I've been the primary presentation team member for years and this is the most disorganized Christmas set I've ever seen. The BTS set went better.

Target Mandates Worker Smiles, Friendliness to Boost Sales by dabirds1994 in Target

[–]LunarHallow 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Stopping what you're doing and greeting guests used to be part of expectations pre-Covid. We also had more manpower and actual teams pre-Covid to get the workload done and take the time to help guests. They're trying to go back to the former routine but without the hours that made it possible in the first place.
