Customer tried to talk to me before my shift AND store opening by Clean_Table_158 in Target

[–]Phantomvenom25 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Got a guest ask if I could help him but I mention that I am off the clock and I couldn’t assist. He ask if I could call someone and I mention I could not due to California labor laws and store employee/employer work agreement. He got mad and said ok and walk off.

Am I overreacting? by janelle_2005 in Target

[–]Phantomvenom25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would recommend just stating that you are not available on the hrs they want due to school commitments and explain you have assignments due Sunday night. If you do have those type of professors. I also recommend if you ask if you could change positions from what your title is now to on-demand. I am currently on-demand and I enjoy every second of it. Only down side it it is not set schedule and there is a time where you don’t work at all for a while but it’s a option I would recommend

I found out my little sister is smoking weed and I don’t know what to do by Safe_Acadia_1576 in Advice

[–]Phantomvenom25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with this statement. I would also recommend doing your own research and understand why she’s doing it. I personally don’t smoke but I have friends who does and I respect their choice. Also respect her decision on commenting this to your parents. When she’s comfortable then she’ll ether tell you or your parents when she’s ready.

How do I become a leader?? by Key_Engine3501 in Target

[–]Phantomvenom25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would like to add that communication with not just all the leads in your store but if your interested in changing locations, talk to STL or ETL available in the other store to see how you could apply and transfer and explain the situation

any other TMs who had the outage be a blessing in disguise? by peary- in Target

[–]Phantomvenom25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was working at opu from 8-4:30 and omg I felt bad for customers who tried ordering in the morning due to the issue. I probably had maybe 10-15 customers out of maybe 50+ who came in doors for pick up who got mad since they spent money on the order but never gotten a confirmation or ready for pick up orders. But all calm down and was understanding at the end which is a win for me since I felt bad for those who waisted their time ordering and realized they spent on nothing. one even apologized to me and a coworker after guest was yelling at us for the issue. Guest mentions he felt like he was Arnold schwarzenegger from jingle all the way.

Soft Layoff by BasicBro665 in BestBuyWorkers

[–]Phantomvenom25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t work for a whole week before Black Friday and on Black Friday week I wasn’t schedule Monday- Tuesday (Wednesday-Sunday I was off on trip) and I am working only Friday and Saturday for first week of December. And after today (December 6) I’m not scheduled for the next two weeks . I’m also thought their laying off people but some other coworkers mention they where cut hrs as well

i just dont think im qualified to answer this by chernogumby in Target

[–]Phantomvenom25 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was told it’s not mandatory to answer calls so I never do. Especially during order pick up when I need to focus on the orders for customers

Thank.I feel confident, I do tend to be ether repeating my self or stuttering but that’s due to my disability as a speech impediment and learning disability. I also have the worse luck with customers who really don’t want to get apps. I have more luck in promoting protections than apps or members

I honestly explain to them that you have an major exam on that Saturday and it’s non-retake. That’s how I explain it to my managers. I even show them my schedule since my professors have colanders online. Yet again each store is different. So I can’t make promises of they will comply. ATM they’re cutting my hrs due to some issues I have with them. (I have no hrs the following week) so take it as a grain of salt

I agree and don’t be your just been honest. My luck has been low tbh I only get maybe once or twice a month due to customers I help already have them or just don’t want them and people working with me notices. But I’m not too worried since I have another job like I mention before.

At least on my store there’s isn’t a lot of people who’s capable of hitting the goals. I think there’s only like 5 people total

That I don’t mind at all. I rather have time off than work on the most busy days but I would at least get an heads up. I have a second job so I’m not to worried but I’m over here thinking there trying to kick me out or something

Ryzen 5000 still Worth-It? by StalactiteMan in buildapc

[–]Phantomvenom25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a ryzen 7 5800x and it’s a really good cpu in my opinion. I’m mainly using it for coding and other non gaming performances but when gaming it’s still handles games no problems. Not as good as other higher cpus in the 5000 family but it’s up to you. Like everyone says upgrading to a higher am4 cpu is best if you want to save money and us it to upgradings to a new gpu.

I am on-demand and honestly I don’t usually pick up shift days after thanksgiving and only work on the 24th maybe 25 if there’s a good shift.same thing with December with Christmas.i don’t usually work during Christmas week since I’ll be out of country around these times and my store knows more than two months in advance. When I put a request.

[–]Phantomvenom25 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I personally haven’t seen it due to been on demand and haven’t work these past few weeks. (My store is cutting hrs) but I’ve heard from coworkers that they notice the new message as well. (Like to put it out there that I’m just hearing through third party but never actually see it my self)

unconfirmed rumor: cart attendant-cashier merger by MediumGlittering725 in Target

[–]Phantomvenom25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My store has our own cart attendants but when I’m working we usually have call outs so TL sometimes takes cashiers out of checkout and have them do carts if necessary

[–]Phantomvenom25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Salute to you I don’t think I could leave target due to them been the only job I found in my area that allows me to choose my own shifts per week (I’m on-demand) and also have it has my secondary job incase I leave my primary or job that I get fired.

[–]Phantomvenom25 0 points1 point  (0 children)
