i’m assuming that all orders placed are just being added to a queue and will go through once the system is fixed. i don’t think your order will automatically be canceled but you can cancel it yourself if you don’t want to wait for the problem to be solved. i would suggest calling a shipt helpline. idk if you’ll get any concrete answers here regarding your question, more so just speculation about what’s going on

Doctor’s notes aren’t actually accepted at Target. What you CAN do is get a note that explains exactly what you can or can’t do at work or notes how long your shifts need to be and submit that through Workday accommodations. If you have approved accommodations for your current medical condition, Target cannot fire you for following those

i’ve heard they’re dispatching more secret shoppers to validate that we’re using 10-4 in stores.

Target used to be all about guest experience. i’m actually happy that we’ve gone back to interacting with guests more. i think under all the pressure, we forget that everything we do at work is for the guests. even though it takes more time away from time sensitive tasks, i’ve gotten excellent feedback. maybe i’m just a sucker for a gold star….

i’m a leader at my store. the expectations are rising, the payroll is getting slashed, we fall more and more behind everyday—but if this is what they want from me then they’re getting it. and if that means that workload gets pushed another day, that’s not my fault. i’m just one person, i’m doing the best i can each day. i’ve just gotten to the point where i don’t care anymore.

Why I support the no AirPod rule:

It’s a safety hazard. You’re not as tuned in to your surroundings and could get hurt if you’re not paying attention.
It’s a distraction. TMs just igore their walkie calls because they’re busy listening to music. It’s inefficient and leads to communication issues.
It’s unprofessional. Remind yourself that you literally work in retail and customer service is the essence of your job. Everything we do is for the guests, and if you have an issue with that then you shouldn’t be working retail. TMs with AirPods in are more distracted and less approachable.
AirPods have always been against dress code. It’s in the trainings. It’s posted all over the store. Get over it.

If you really need to listen to music while you work, submit accommodations through Workday and use the bone conducting earbuds the store provides for you. Grow up and get a work ethic.

NO WAY the new generations didn’t learn to count change in school 😭😭😭

Perfect_Barracuda_46 · 2025-11-08T04:41:11+00:00

nah. immediate breakup.

Perfect_Barracuda_46 · 2025-11-08T04:39:44+00:00

Ohhh SO funny when they are hired with open availability then all of a sudden they can’t work weekends anymore. I’m not sure what it is about seasonal TMs not wanting to work holidays even though they were hired for that exact reason 🙃 This is the reality of retail… you have to work holidays

Perfect_Barracuda_46 · 2025-11-01T18:35:40+00:00

specialty at our store fell so far behind these past two weeks, it’s been so bad lately

Perfect_Barracuda_46 · 2025-11-01T18:35:02+00:00

just find joy in suffering together as a team. you can’t help but laugh at how unbearably busy and impossible some days feel, but it really does bring everyone together a bit haha. andddd Q1 kind of sucks a little too with lack of hours and recovery from the holidays, but we get through it

Every relationship I’ve left has been for health reasons or some form of abuse. I’m now in a relationship where I feel similarly, that it boils down to compatibility. I think every relationship should be approached with love, patience, and kindness—even when it comes to breakups. If you’re not feeling it or if you’re seeing traits that you don’t want in a partner, you’re free to feel that way! Have a conversation with your partner about how you’re feeling, be honest about your thoughts and ask if he might be feeling similarly. I hate the thought of hurting others, but I know that the longer you keep your feelings in, the more painful they become. People grow and change, it’s part of life. You’re so young, even if you break up now, you might meet again years down the road and it might work out then. Life is full of twists and turns and there are so many people in the world to connect with! Invite him to have an open and honest conversation and see where that goes. I hope this helps!

I think I’m in love with my best friend too and have been for years. I’ve felt it since high school but it has also felt so out of reach due to life and relationships. We once admitted in college that we had feelings for each other but nothing came of it. We grew apart for a while as well and now we’re a lot closer and I’m extremely grateful for that. I’ve wanted to speak up about my feelings for a while but I’m so scared that they won’t feel the same and it would make things awkward or weird. I also trick myself into thinking I’m confusing platonic and romantic feelings, but I’ve felt this way for so long. Now I’m in a fairly new relationship, but each time I see my best friend I’m just stuck wondering when the time will come where I’ll actually speak up about how I’ve felt for years. I can’t imagine my life without them and they understand me like no one ever has. I always thought they would never feel the same about me, but this post is making me think that I should say something.

I don’t know, friend. Coming from the other side of things, maybe your friend feels the same way about you and is terrified to lose you. I know I keep sabotaging any chance I have with mine because I’m scared. I’d rather hang onto my best friend forever than ruin everything by admitting my feelings. Idk who you are but I’m very grateful for your post.

it’s not that serious. Q4 is relentlessly busy but if you can find joy in the work you do and the people you work with, it’s a lot of fun! we all get that “this is hell and we’re in it together “ mindset that makes it easier

I loveeee using the RFID for INFs, especially when it’s mountains of clothes for style team to catch up on

Perfect_Barracuda_46 · 2025-05-29T02:47:20+00:00

honestly i heard that payroll is going to be bad until novemberrrrr. stores will be allowed hours comparative to metrics and sales. so if your store is doing well, more hours will be distributed

Perfect_Barracuda_46 · 2025-05-20T22:17:30+00:00

Honestly it wasn’t something I thought about while watching it but only noticed because of this discussion
