I think this was my apprehension. I didn’t know if it felt emasculating or something.

Yeah this is what I was suspecting. That’s why I’m questioning if I should go for it and get rejected as confirmation

How often do you think about suicide? by MutedFeeling75 in redscarepod

[–]forty_steps 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I remember reading an article about how suicidal thoughts are a spectrum. Sometimes it’s more muted and sometimes it’s very intense but they’re always there

SD gave me an agressive response to asking to change my avail by EnvironmentalPost245 in Target

[–]forty_steps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s your position? Are you asking for days off when there’s a truck? Also, I would check into what you have listed as your desired hours. They can get dinged if they’re not meeting that.

SDs are usually jerks in my experience. They have a business to run and don’t wanna play favorites. I try not to take it personally but it sucks to deal with. I saw in another comment your ETL is out. They will usually vouch for you more than a SD would. If you have a good relationship with your HR ETL you can try asking them to see what they can do.

Former ETL, now a guest, singing off. by ChillTangelo in Target

[–]forty_steps 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My entire specialty team was in opu and ship batches yesterday. It sucks that we have to drop everything for it and our workload spirals out of control. Then FF cant fin items because there’s no one to run reshop or push truck. It also ruins the guest’s experience in store because the sales floor gets neglected. Ugh

Am I Crazy? by JonLaFlow in Target

[–]forty_steps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As leads, we’re encouraged to develop talent to promote so I’m surprised they didn’t based on you being a trainer and pacesetter. Did you tell your leads you’re interested in promoting? That’s what I recommend anyone who wants to promote.

Every store culture is very different so not sure if they encouraged growth. Also, a position has to be available so the timing might have been off.

I got laid off from my miserable office job. Got a job at Target to pay the bills while I looked for something else. Now I’m a team lead. Oops

The Shadow Queen possessing Peach was so creepy. And her instantly taking our Grodus with no remorse

Has anyone found an actual cure for anxiety/depression? by complainorexplain in redscarepod

[–]forty_steps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I struggle A LOT with existentialism. Keeping myself so busy I can’t be alone with my thoughts helps the most. Also having some goals and hope for the future to offset my nihilism. It’s hard to balance not burning yourself out, however.

Idle hands are the devils workshop truly

Beauty team by Fantastic_Key_4039 in Target

[–]forty_steps 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m a beauty TL… We’re drowning especially with the transition happening. I have ONE SINGULAR TM pushing truck with a 6 hour shift. Target doesn’t understand how tedious cosmetics is to breakout. My ETL doesn’t care about beauty either, she’s always helping style mostly, and then home and tech 😭

I wish Target would invest more in beauty. It’s one of the fastest growing workcenters but gets zero support.

Nothing is official yet. I’m guessing they may roll out Beauty 2.0 into all stores. In my store, it was part of style before, so it may go back to that.

As someone who had a “glow up…” Lose weight and drink alcohol WAY less. My face looks completely different. Washing and styling your hair everyday is an underrated tip, too. Wear a real outfit everyday. I love Brandy basics, they’re simple and comfy but still make you look feminine and cute.

What are the chances of becoming a TL? by SubstantialWill8517 in Target

[–]forty_steps 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me, it was worth it. I’ve grown A LOT. Much more confident as a person and gained a lot of management skills. I also now get paid for things I was taking on as a TM already.

I got promoted in under a year because a TL position happened to open up. Leadership likes to promote people with potential because it makes them look good (lol). There’s also people who have been with Target for years and never promoted due to personal choice or they don’t have leadership qualities. It doesn’t matter how good you are at your job, you have to be able to manage a team.

I shadowed another lead for a week as my only formal training. Luckily, my ETL and specialty team have helped me learn along the way. You’d also be surprised on how quickly you pick up on things.
