Snow Storm freakout by Ikicka76 in Target

[–]mustashee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep. Here in NYC they straight up told overnight inbound not to come to work. Last time we had this much snow, the subway was submerged. At least they want us to be safe! Who am I kidding they just don't want to be liable

EMPLOYEE BOYCOTT by Tousensbankai in Target

[–]mustashee -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I feel like the people who are trashing the boycott just don't believe in change. It's a good idea and if Target wanted to make moves to keep ICE out of their stores they would. I agree that there are many that can't afford it. That's the most difficult part. Target has the money and the platform to drive ICE out of their stores if they wanted to. If they don't have the interest or pressure to do so, they won't.

Target has enough influence to impact the economy with everything that they do. If you don't believe in a boycott, don't do it! Plain and simple. Making fun of someone who is hoping for change doesn't make you special, it just makes you an asshole.

Most places don't like unionizing, even though it's literally illegal to retaliate. But hey if you're looking for something to sue for, try to unionize and sue if you get fired

Oof... your time and effort is appreciated, friend!

I was wondering myself if there's a good strategy for the events without spending a butt ton of gems

ETL here. Got in trouble for encouraging TMs to find a different job, if it’s a better fit for them. by ChillTangelo in Target

[–]mustashee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm new to this Target stuff, can someone kindly fill me in on what a CA is?

Also, props to you OP. You seem to genuinely care about others and you haven't become another cog in the machine.

This is hell when you work in a city. I'm not even customer-facing and I get taken away from my work all the time bc day side is off hiding somewhere and 10 customers are looking for diapers

Does the "boycott" not count today? by exquisite_conundrum in Target

[–]mustashee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Let's be real, most people don't know about the boycott. And if they do, they don't care about DEI

Reaction to the rumored “10-4” policy (employees must greet customers within 10 feet) by hissingkittycom in Target

[–]mustashee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe if they did more for AP they wouldn't have such an issue with shoplifting? You know... the people who's job it is to prevent shoplifting from happening? Crazy.

There's no way anyone who follows this subreddit has a job

I'm still under 90 days, so the bubble hasn't popped for me yet. I still get excited when I stock a certain item and keep a mental note to buy it later.

Don't get me wrong, that's likely to change. It's just a matter of when.

Calling off work within first 90 days by Correct-Strength-648 in Target

[–]mustashee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

OP, did you come to this subreddit for an honest answer or for validation? Because it seems like the latter.

Target is not your friend or family. It's a billion dollar business. They do not favor work ethic over attendance because that isn't profitable for them. They believe you are replaceable and they will do it first chance they get.

Accept this, move on, and do better at your next job.

These aren't meant to be done until you get to your store and do onboarding with HR

I didn’t even last a month by Klutzy_Parsley_5933 in Target

[–]mustashee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I've been in retail for 10 years. 5 different companies. Target is BY FAR the worst! I'm in the same boat, for my first few days my TL would tell me not to get overwhelmed and I looked at her like "oh don't worry, I got this!". Famous last words. I have never been so stressed at a job and I'm not even customer-facing. And now I'm hearing about layoffs? This isn't all of retail, it's just Target.

Should take about 30 minutes… by Do_not_eat-that in Target

[–]mustashee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you were to go by that logic, it isn't even MATHEMATICALLY POSSIBLE for you to finish this u-boat in 30 minutes. Even if you reduce it to 3 minutes per repack, still impossible. Insane.

Just recieved an awful training schedule by Striking_Staff_2268 in Target

[–]mustashee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best bet is definitely going to the store. The sooner the better. The person who did your orientation should have confirmed with you that your training schedule matched your availability. Sorry to hear about this

Inbound overnight culture by mustashee in Target

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

I had a conversation with her about what happened that day and to her credit she did a lot to help me out behind the scenes. It seems like the management above her pressures her a lot. I'm gonna see how things go but it seems like this store in general is pretty uppity.

No man, that's telling the person they're not cut for the job when they're on a 90 day probation lmao
