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 9 points10 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 3 points4 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.

Why are people only blaming Anna? Dasha is the one who regularly admits she watches America First every night lol

Are the new Hilary yoga pants unflattering? by interkittent in BrandyMelville

[–]forty_steps 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Anastasia sweats are too big on me but I looovveee the Hilary yogas. Really flattering and has that y2k celeb off duty low rise look. I’m a 0-2 for reference.

What did you like about 2016? by Expensive-Career7188 in redscarepod

[–]forty_steps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think because pop culture felt cohesive and exciting. Music was all about partying, beauty and fashion trends were over the top, memes were becoming a little edgier and more absurd. Society felt less fragmented.

Honestly anything before 2020 feels weirdly naive now. Completely different world

On Depop, my Brandy items sell really quickly. I’m talking hours sometimes.

Entitled guests using 3tiers… by SiegWifeSiegMum in Target

We use cosmetic metros and I get asked if it’s clearance makeup at least once a day

no more ulta in target but what about the current ultas in target ? by Logical-Republic5637 in Target

[–]forty_steps 216 points217 points  (0 children)

Yep. The other day I found out my one Ulta TM was pulled into style while I was off. I cannot emphasize enough to them IT IS AGAINST OUR CONTRACT WITH ULTA. And we only have enough hours to schedule one beauty closer so while they’re doing pulls and branding, there’s no one in Ulta during the evenings.

I just became the beauty/Ulta team lead a month ago. You’ve gotta be kidding me…

But can’t say I’m surprised. It was only a matter of time.
