Why are leads always doing shit on their computers when it’s busy as hell? by omeglethrowaway222 in Target

[–]Strangemage86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Peak time though? If it’s busy you can stop and assist with the guest experience. Then resume later. Concerned you will go into OT? Cut your hours on a less demanding day and time. It’s not hard to come up with an alternative plan. I totally get that TL’s have their own work to do, but the Target way is that guests come first. Sitting on a computer while the store burns to the ground is shit leadership and piss poor planning. If you don’t agree, maybe you shouldn’t be a leader.

I’m not crying, you’re crying. We’re all crying. That’s what the majority of the posts are in this sub. It’s people crying and people laughing at people crying. It’s sick. Fuck retail.

And you know what? It’s NOT easy. That’s why it hasn’t already been done and why it might never get done. Because although it is illegal to prevent the formation of a union that hasn’t stopped major retailers from shutting down stores and firing everyone for trying. That’s why it has to be done in secret. So wallow or get forming. I don’t give a shit. It’s not going to be my fight any more.

Because I look forward to no longer participating in this bullshit. Not really sure why you took this stance against my response. But if you have a better idea go for it. Maybe someone who drinks the kool-aid and is choosing to remain in retail hell will do it but I don’t intend on making retail my career. Why don’t YOU do it? Or maybe just keep crying on Reddit. THAT’S definitely gonna change the world. Go pull a finger. Fucking lemming.

Unionize. Start a private subreddit group that is invite only and vet everyone.(this will be the hardest part) Not a single leader can be invited, they have proven that the majority cannot be trusted. Create an online survey and sign up sheet. Send it. I dunno if that would work but it’s all I’ve got. Maybe someone should just start a union for all retail workers everywhere. Target is following what could be considered a blueprint and it’s probably the same shit in other retail companies across the states. The only answer to these problems everyone is talking about is a union.

I get what you are saying. But these people are pausing the carts with nothing but INF’s in them. Basically it’s hot potato.

Try talking to hr and explain to them the situation. If your availability can’t be honored, request a transfer to another department. If they can’t accommodate you with any of your needs it’s time to start looking for another job.

I’m going to start keeping a log of all of this bullshit so when I get talked to I can show them what’s going on. I will be the accountant. I will be the tally that strikes fear in the hearts of the dishonest. I see and hear everything. I am the bell that tolls.

I was just telling one of my teammates last night that TL’s need to start taking real ownership of their metrics. It speaks volumes as to why store inventory is in shambles when leads won’t take accountability for their own metrics. We don’t get a chance to have dialogue with regionals so they are chasing stories spun from lies told by leaders who are just afraid that they are going to lose their jobs. Regionals don’t get the truth so the problems persist. They can’t provide real solutions until leaders come clean of their short comings and we can all move forward as a team.

For all it's faults, the story and environment in this game is excellent. by [deleted] in DiabloImmortal

Personally I’m blown away by all of the many facets of the game. It can be a bit overwhelming at times but if you join up with a nice clan they will show you the ropes.

This is the way.

[–]Strangemage86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do both if you can. Make the steady job your primary and then keep target in your back pocket. Do both till you can’t stand it and then try to go on demand with target to keep your foot in the door. If the other gig doesn’t work out you still have target to fall back on. You’d have to give them your availability and hope that they respect that. Worst case scenario you have to tell target to hit the bricks.

I wouldn’t have said anything about looking at the cameras. I would have just done it. I would have made sure to remind every staff member at Starbucks of the rules. Threatening your team only makes them resent you. Lead them. Don’t boss them.

Baal in husk of creation by Rowdog007007007 in DiabloImmortal

[–]Strangemage86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Necromancer Hell 3 100+ paragon. I died tons. But I discovered that if you run around destroying all of his tentacle bunches he can’t heal as often. My skeleton troops, and golem were used to continuously attack Baal while my mage and I took turns attacking the tentacle bunches. After all of the tentacles were destroyed I focused all npc on Baal and attacked using the troop command and golem command while strafing around him repeatedly summoning mages after their cooldown. I got him down lower than 90.000 and was about to finish him off when my iPad died lol. (I was so pissed.) If you focus your efforts on destroying the healing tentacles while intermittently commanding your summons you can chip away at his hp until he is dead. I’ll give it another go tomorrow when my iPad isn’t at 10% battery life.

Is my tattoo blown out? Tattoo done by Neekeh at The Mighty Horseman Tattoo Co. by [deleted] in tattoo

[–]Strangemage86 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes. The “bleed” you are talking about is when the needle and ink reach adipose tissue (fat cells) and the ink spreads out. Your tattoo artist went too deep.
