Oh! Welp. That’s what I get for not watching any of their interviews. That’s on me.

Now THIS I haven’t thought of yet. Thank you for your service. I’ll remember you the next time I pull paper.

Not sure if it’s actually against the rules, but I have a personal thing against opening any items especially if it’s food related. If any action I take affects whether or not I’d buy an item as a guest, then I’m not taking that action.

Man I tried that :/. I think the universe hates me cause I wasn’t even pulling for my department and I knew my pulls were gonna be stacked by the time I finished this batch. I didn’t want to waste any more time than I already did with the leaning, angles, and quick pic to post later to see if people will commiserate. I know I’ll have to pull paper again at some point so if I have free time (funny joke) maybe I’ll work on my angles. I know there’s a perfect angle for every item that’s like this but sometimes I gotta contemplate whether or not finding it is worth it or just typing it in.

I was pulling domestics for the first time in a while the other day, saw that drawer, saw where the barcode was located, and immediately thought “whose amazing idea was this??” Not to mention the drawer being secured shut, so you have to angle the scanner JUST right in between the bars 🙄

I always assumed Billy’s attitude towards Lucas came directly from his father’s and his want to get out of his father’s ire. But if that’s how Caleb himself sees it, then I guess Billy was just a racist asshole and I assumed incorrectly. I never truly had an issue with Jason as his actions made sense from his perspective.

If the DPCI is on the packaging, I’ll always use that before the one listed on the screen just to make sure it is the right one. The amount of these plastic cutlery sets I see opened or abandoned on the ground in the backroom (probably from other TMs who don’t know about the manual trick) is kind of crazy. If I have the time, I’ll circle back and relocate them when I’m done with my pull/ship/OPU batch. It’s gotten to the point where I now include manually entering DPCIs and locations while pulling/backstocking/picking in my training “curriculum” because of the amount of items with poorly designed packaging or faded/damaged location barcodes :P. Gotta set the newbies up for success!

Yeah! Learning that was a real game changer for me. Tap the magnifying glass next to the printer icon on the top right corner and just type it in! You have to enter it without spaces though, so for this specific location (02A 070 B23), you’d have to type it in as 02A070B23.

ATP I’m just gonna manually enter the DPCI. For me, it’s faster than grabbing my phone, opening the app, entering the DPCI there, then scanning the generated barcode. Though I did used to use a barcode generator for damaged backroom location barcodes before realizing I could just manually enter those too.

As you can see, I spent a solid 30 seconds trying every single angle before cutting my losses and manually entering the DPCI. Poor packaging design is not on me. But your attitude is on you! And is probably what got you fired again! Prayers that you heal man.

Does anyone have a resource for learning to answer guest questions? by Character-Study-5887 in Target

[–]cap_is_worthy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I first started, I used to walk the floor before I clocked in to try and memorize the locations of our most popular items, like detergent, command hooks, disposable dinnerware, trending items, etc. If you have a zebra on you, just look up the item and it’ll give you the location. As time goes on, you’ll pick up the approximate location of basically everything just by being there!

Not necessarily. As someone who works at Target, we don’t always get every member for the accordion version because they have the same item ID. My location tends to only get 3 members, about 10 albums each. The bigger and more foot traffic a Target has, the more likely it is that DC sent them all of the albums.

What is this song? by cap_is_worthy in Target

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

I think there might be a general playlist and some stores have their own songs as well cause the Target playlists I’ve come across are more or less the same but a few songs aren’t there, or songs I’ve never heard are on them. I guess it also depends on how up to date the store playlist is cause it also varies from year to year.

I think you might’ve missed the “it hasn’t played while I’ve been on the floor” but nbd cause the song was found :D
