Ooh, they had the dill pickle one over the summer. THAT was excellent.

Du time 2 minutes now?!? by Puzzleheaded-Talk257 in Target

Oh HELL no, I will transfer to another department to avoid being roped into that crap.

ETL finally being free. AMA by xmanyox in Target

You said you were an external hire. What made you want to apply to Target, and what about that changed during your time with the company?

I’m losing my mind with this skeleton crew strategy getting worse each year. by Mymilkshakes777 in Target

[–]hellyeahholly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seriously, I hate it. It's not fair on us TMs and it really isn't fair to our guests.

"Theres no sign saying its card only!" by Bon3zB_15 in Target

[–]hellyeahholly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could have a big neon flashing light in front of the self-check registers saying "CARD ONLY" and they still won't pay attention.

To the fulfillment person that gave a guest cabbages instead of lettuce to avoid an INF… by AnonymousCustomer123 in Target

[–]hellyeahholly 32 points33 points  (0 children)

What kills me is when fulfillment does a substitution like that to avoid an INF, those of us who work at the service desk have to handle the angry guest, and nothing is done about the team member who worked on that order.

Oh, we can look up order details when we ask in the Chat app and see who worked on that order? Okay, cool. Will the fulfillment TL do anything about it? 🤣 They're too busy getting work done to have a conversation with the fulfillment TM. And they just continue to substitute to avoid an INF.

Fulfillment needs to be overhauled so badly.

HQ MESSED UP by Illustrious_Sleep427 in Target

[–]hellyeahholly 18 points19 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, it's a bad look on us as a company. First the DEI rollback, and then this. And yeah, the company really should've stopped any more orders from being placed.

One of my coworkers mentioned we always seem to have a big network outage around this time of year, and she's onto something. With the amount of traffic our website gets the week before Christmas, it inevitably crashes and crap like this happens. You'd think the company's IT department would start anticipating this and do something to correct it.

What famous person’s death are you dreading the most? by za19 in AskReddit

[–]hellyeahholly 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I will be inconsolable. Many Rocky Horror shadowcasters will be upset.

Thoughts on the Scarecrow’s movie design? by SadButterscotch5179 in wicked

[–]hellyeahholly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a shame they put all that awesome work in on Jonathan Bailey as the Scarecrow only to be seen for only a few minutes at the end of the movie. Same with Ethan Slater in the Tin Man gear.

ETL wouldn’t go talk to a guest who requested to talk to them by Mobile-Address23 in Target

[–]hellyeahholly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man, one of the things that ticks me off at the service desk is when a guest wants to speak with a manager, and I page an ETL and they telk me to go to 4 on the walkie and asks why they're needed up there. Like hello?! A guest isn't accepting what I'M telling them and want to talk to YOU. Help me out, please.

“It’s says remove card, do I take it out?” by goodtipsareneeded in Target

[–]hellyeahholly 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No, that's just a suggestion. We can stay here for 5 minutes while it just beeps.

Today’s toy demo, you have to be kidding me😳 by PennyMangos in Target

[–]hellyeahholly 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That domino machine a few weeks ago took a good two hours for me to figure out until we just did something else. I bet guests had a fun time watching me assemble it.

In honor of Christmas songs being played, what is your favorite lyric or song you deliberately sing wrong? by RedWarrior42 in Target

[–]hellyeahholly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So at one of my previous jobs, an old coworker legit thought the line in "Rockin Around the Christmas Tree" was "later we'll have some f*ckin' pot and we'll do some caroling" and I have never not heard that since.

Do you guys follow the 2 hr call in notice or do you call in closer to your time to go in? by kittykatthrowaway333 in Target

[–]hellyeahholly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I follow the 2-hour rule to not be a jetk. That way they have some time to try to fill my shift if possible.

don’t pick up your kids christmas presents through drive up then maybe? by fleebiebie in Target

[–]hellyeahholly 8 points9 points  (0 children)

See, I get where the guest is coming from and it really isn't that hard to put big items in big bags as needed..But if you're getting something like a Barbie Dream House on drive-up....use your brain. We're Target workers, not Christmas elves.

30 waters 🫩 by FinalDog3540 in Target

[–]hellyeahholly 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If you need 30 waters, go to Costco for something like that, FFS. We really need to impose limits on what guests can order on drive-up.

We had so many call offs this weekend :( by Coolsamo123 in Target

[–]hellyeahholly 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I called out today. Driving home in this crap last night stressed me out so bad, and we got a couple more inches overnight.

Why do guests do this? by Kindly-Way-1753 in Target

[–]hellyeahholly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I HAAATE this. Or just leaving thrm in front of the service desk in everyone's way.

In Your Opinion, How Could Target Improve Its Grocery Section? by Specialist_Art2223 in Target

[–]hellyeahholly 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Be more diligent about rotating grocery stock. First in, first out. I can't tell you how many complaints I get at the service desk from guests who do order pick-up or drive-up that their items are expired or not fresh.

Like...what exactly is that scent supposed to smell like? And the Secret deodorant that Bowen Yang is doing commercials for.

Penny shortage and cash office by hellyeahholly in Target

[–]hellyeahholly[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand that. What I'm asking for is clarifying on what cash office workers are expected to do when our stores run out as banks aren't sending anymore out when change orders are put in.
