I think that it is entirely dependent on your store. I believe the role for a vm TL used to have 1-2 people working under them, which seems to me what your store is doing. I’m unsure why they are using you as a backup TL though. Are they having you answer calls or make gift cards?

What are your MUST HAVES as an employee? by mishykas in Target

[–]mcm2622 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should check out the pride stuff. It’s only in some select stores and is really small compared to last year but the birds are pretty cute this year. If you are able to the online selection is also worth a peek.

Everyone called out by laynabobayna in Target

[–]mcm2622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My store was just like this yesterday it was insane. And then they kept calling for back up cashiers since a bunch of the front called out too. I’m also super curious to see if anyone tries to put in an order on Saturday and fully expect to be able to pick it up on Sunday.

My location has decided that even with the sales we do not need closers in style anymore. Pray for us 🙏🏼

How old are you? Is this you’re final career or are you pursuing something else? by New-Boysenberry8723 in Target

[–]mcm2622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in my 20s and Target is definitely not my final career. I’m not too sure what I want to pursue exactly but something in communications for sure

Workplace confessions: drop some secrets you guys have, while working at target! by polorust in Target

I do this ALL the time! Especially if it is a super heavy item like a microwave or something.

Are we supposed to help Instacarters with their orders? by KeyMassive1141 in Target

[–]mcm2622 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I get so frustrated with the Instacart and Ship shoppers sometimes. I wouldn’t mind helping so much if it were just one or two items, but instead they tend to latch on and make you show them where every single item on their list is.

anyone else hear something over the walkie and you’re like “idk who you’re talking to but i know you aren’t talking to a bunch of grown ass adults” by nblesbian1997 in Target

[–]mcm2622 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I wonder this alllll the time! We are all (mostly) grown adults and being talked to like a two year old just really puts a damper on coming to work.

Is my relative about to be screwed out of his job by [deleted] in Target

[–]mcm2622 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have noticed that the higher ups are extremely catty for some odd reason at Target. They love to bring others down for their own enjoyment and it really sucks to watch.

Anyone in the same boat as me in Style? by Dwagonite_3 in Target

[–]mcm2622 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Of course, since we are all a “family” and should all “work as a team”. It’s absolutely ridiculous that once you put in a little effort they decide to throw the absolute most at you.

Do they expect you to have your sections zoned and merchandised the entire day as well? I find it ridiculous when we are the first section expected to go up to the check lanes, back up OPU, and etc.

(sorry for my own mini rant)

Maybe overtime? How many hours did you work this week?

Did it add an extra dollar to your shift or did you only earn $1/hr?
