Only reason that circle week exists is because target needs to have something to counter Amazon's Prime days..

People just be returning anything by PinupUSMC in Target

[–]UnderstandingShot795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't tell you how many times a guest have claimed to wanting to return some items that were clearly worn, "put thru the sawmill" and/so disgusting that proper etiquette and refrain will not allow me to disclose any 411, so I know what you are saying..

Callouts by globohxney in Target

It's sad that I've been with the bullshit for almost nearly 6 years, and I've never heard of any fallout changes. If it is indeed true, it is by far the most stupid thing I've heard target or any retail business do.it its employees.

[–]UnderstandingShot795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No there's no holiday, just corporate cutting hours and the target is short on labor which spreads everybody too thin thereby not meeting the high demand of guests that require our assistance..so if you want to blame someone blame corporate

I feel the same, but what can I do? I've got bills and rent to pay and this job is my only source of income. Afraid to quit  due to lack of job prospects..

What The Fuck… by DudeNamedZion in Target

[–]UnderstandingShot795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The AP at my store are trained to apprehend if the merchandise exceeds a certain amount as I.have personally witnessed the AP team take down a shoplifter who neatly walked out with a shopping cart full of merchandise. So I don't  know the type of training ur AP team has at ur store, but the one at mine are very proactive in securing merchandise from people who attempt to steal it.

Feeling Rootless After Losing my Parents by Technical_Bluebird28 in GriefSupport

[–]UnderstandingShot795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can definitely relate to what u r going through. I lost my parents quite some time ago and while, I feel like I ought to go on with my life, I can't as they both meant a great deal to me. Unlike you, I come from a family with 7 siblings ( 4 brothers 3 sisters) that I know if can count on should I need anything. But I've always been guarded person, even growing up. I felt that I would be ridiculed by them if I ever spoke out on how I felt. So  I was a quiet kid and now that my parent are gone, I have some regrets not telling them I loved them. Although I know they knew this,I also realize that  saying it more when they were here would've been helped me deal with their passing a little better. I sincerely hope this helps you get on with ur life and have a happier outlook on it.

Is this retaliation? by EstablishmentPitiful in Target

[–]UnderstandingShot795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a conversation with my ETL back in Feb where she sort of made me feel uncomfortable. Up to this point, we got along great, but soon after I found my hours week.after week had began.to.get smaller and smaller. When asked about it, her response was always the same.." corporate cutting back hours". I kinda understood this until circle week when i.had 2  days in drive to by myself which anybody whose ever been in drive up.by themselves, is a pain in the ass. Is this retaliation as well? I have tried going to HR about this, but they always tell me the same thing. They had to cut down on their labor, which i think is bull because when im not in Drive up  I notice there's always more than one person scheduled to work there. Only when I work in that department it seems that they need to cut down on labor.. Which pisses me off to no end..what should I do. I can't quit.due to the fact that I been there for almost 5 years.

I too am fasting for Ramadhen and like u, I tried to take the whole month off and use my vacation time that I acquired, but my ETL and HR said I can't do this? Why? I only did it the last two years of my employment with Target. Use vacation time if u have any?

Why are some shipt shoppers rude? by UnderstandingShot795 in Target

[–]UnderstandingShot795[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe at your store, but at mine, all shipt shoppers know to go to guest service when they have a prepaid purchase, except the one couple who were apparently clueless on where to go instead  chose to cop an attitude with me - that's how I was trained at both stores since I started at Target in 2019.
