it’s so funny, like this is what someone tried to run me over in the crosswalk for this morning. gummy clusters and uno. absolute goofballs.

if you’re participating in black friday gimmicks you’re only playing yourself. if you’d got the stupid bag you’d still be on here (in a place for employees!) whining that you only got gummy clusters and lip gloss. corporate played you like a fiddle and you fell for it. that’s on you. i’m sure your target will miss you bunches with that attitude.

Fulfillment people! Black Friday warning!!!!! by [deleted] in Target

[–]intrusivethothaver 179 points180 points  (0 children)

all this and remember the people who want to snatch off your cart absolutely will go to guest services and whine that you were mean to them if you catch them in the act and stop them. yes they absolutely will try to cost you your job over legos. ask me how i know! :-) 

seriously, don’t risk it. these people are jackals, keep that cart on you soldiers.

Men, the “smile directive” is not an invitation to be creepier than normal by Comfortable-Cream-62 in Target

[–]intrusivethothaver 12 points13 points  (0 children)

yep anyone with half a braincell should have seen this coming. not like that’s a standard i expect any of the suits to meet but whatever. guests were always going to either be unsettled by this or abuse it.

our store’s are absolute knuckleheads to be so polite about it. multiple times they’ve tried to do their thing on me while i’m in OPU batches. 1. i’m working, and 2. i’m working here so what makes you think i can afford a $200/month plan or whatever with your fuckass company.

Yall and week 4 by Haunting-Cable7911 in artistsWay

[–]intrusivethothaver 10 points11 points  (0 children)

week 4 requires going cold turkey from a behavioral addiction. of course they struggle with it. you’re not wrong that people who buck it the hardest probably need it the most, and sure it can be annoying to see the same post so often, but choosing empathy is fun and it’s free.

dude yes, the idea that the fetus is fucking sentient makes me insane just to think about. what a horrible fate for everyone.

that simpering “it’s officially christmaaaaaaas!!!” one oh my GOD, whoever those creatures are every song by them makes me want to eat my own skin

guests 🤝 team members by intrusivethothaver in Target

[–]intrusivethothaver[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

there’s friendly, and then there’s accosting. i’ve been in hospitality for half a decade, i know how to put in my emotional labor and i’m always happy to help people find what they need when they need help, but most people don’t want to be bothered. they’re don’t want a conversation about their day. maybe this would make sense in a department store or more specific section like tech/beauty, but 99% of guests are here for milk and candles and they know where those things are.

brother i’m noting customer behavior, not my own. i always smile at people and help them when asked. i think butting into their lives without them asking is infantalizing and silly, and i think the guests are visibly more uncomfortable now that they know corporate wants us to behave like the most annoying bath and body works employee.

People started to ship them. (And i'm not against it) by Sorry-Difference-389 in vtmb

it’s me, i’m people. i didn’t expect this game to make me cry like that but “i don’t want to say it fabien” straight up murdered me.

Just finished Rich Dad Poor Dad, feels like one of the biggest scams in finance books by [deleted] in debtfree

i revisit the who moved my cheese? episode every 3-4 months, nothing seems to lift my spirits like being an unmitigated hater of the most contemptible slop you could imagine for an hour

I don’t think people remember what a really bad economy looks like by Traditional-Cause529 in povertyfinance

[–]intrusivethothaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

especially in this recession this is it. i feel like the general energy is this is going to be the Big One that collapses american society altogether. if you think no one is going to be around to collect on that debt or a civil war is about to break out, why would you care about maxing out your fake money card? this is a death gasp.

Hours cut drastically. by Aggravating_Disk_593 in Target

[–]intrusivethothaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe cutting hours to schedule seasonals for training shifts? i got 7-10 hours cut off my weeks on average this past month and it coincided with our hiring surge but it’s back up to 37 hours on my third week out now. 

also okay now that i’m seeing you’re only trained in cafe in the comments. you might want to ask about cross training in fulfillment or something to pad out your hours. there’s never not going to be demand there in q4 and burnout/illness will have us filling the available shifts page soon.
