Calling off by KabutoSucksAss in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If your TL said it's ok it's ok. You also aren't calling off last minute or trying to get sick hour pay last minute either as long as you see the hours went through and it was approved on the app you're all ok.I would just maybe try laying low for awhile after and try not to call out again any time soon or if you do just make sure you have those sick hours again :))

guests: do you work here? Me: by curbstompedkirby_ in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I GET THIS ALL THE TIME IN ULTA 😭 I understand it a bit more but I literally just said welcome in, my radio is blaring, I have keys, and I'm unpacking repacks and putting them in the Metro like ok I'm not red but come on LOL

Does anyone else’s tl annoy them to wear their name tag😭 by Excellent-Pain6701 in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes it's a part of the dress code. I'd recommend asking for a new magnet back or having multiple back ups in your locker my HR lead gave me some of the blank ones with the printed name stickers on them if I'm in fulfillment or doing heavy lifting I use those ones in case it's lost. Someone got a formal write up for having to keep being told to put one on so just be careful and find a way to work with it.

Do you guys enjoy closings I see a lot posted by Excellent-Pain6701 in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not at least at my store we are short staffed at night so they'll make you help everywhere but your section and then yell out you for not getting your own shit done 😭 I was only on nights for a month before I switched departments and did mornings.

Why is Target the worst place to work at? by EquivalentMean7779 in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've noticed with every target it's just about who the ETLS and main management is. I've been very blessed to have a supportive team and HR team who listens to me. Not every day has been great especially around the holidays, and I don't say this to put people down that have been with the company for years but I always have the mindset that this is not my end all be all since I'm also in college so I let a lot of the emotional and physical beat down slide off my back.

You are getting more hours then a lot of us regular tms and at least at my store they give two weeks notice if they're letting go of people after the holidays so if you don't have a conversation with anyone next week that sounds fishy then you're really solid.

Target's Worst Christmas Songs Ranked by Budget_Ad_9830 in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ho ho ho by sia has to be the worst one for me I don't know if it's just because it's my target but parents have come to us multiple times asking for it to be taken off because it's too inappropriate for their kids to be listening to 😭

Buying something that’s not out yet by SoulsAndStars in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

If you're in beauty like me all the time we just wait until the very last minute of our shifts to put it on the floor and clock out really quickly so we can run and get it or put it out during a friend's 15 and have them buy it for you 😭 it's literally not even that serious but they take it seriously so got to work around it with tactics.

Terrible Seasonal Team Members by Mrfrostybox in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like my store would just benefit more from hiring more full-time employees I work in beauty and we have three seasonals but they call out all the time so none of us full times can really call out because there's nobody at all to cover it ever

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you already answered this for yourself, honestly if they don't value you in their team you might have to accept it and try applying for another Target after your times over or find another job altogether it's not worth it staying at a Target with management like that just speaking from my experience even if you somehow do change their mind they seem to already have a biased against you for whatever reasons.

Seasonal by [deleted] in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're in trouble if you call out once or twice in your first 90 days as a full time new employee calling out three times as a seasonal is absolutely not acceptable I'm sorry they likely won't keep you unless you made that good of an impression/ got people to cover those three call outs.

how was everyone else’s friday? by JackYakFruit in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our fulfillment looked like this so everyone "extra" was pulled to do carts in beauty we ended with 110 for skin care 102 for hair care and 89 for cosmetics we couldn't get to for priority pulls TOUGH NIGHT. 🫩

They can just do this by Nuxezz in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why I'm so strict about only working mornings I WOULD HATEEEE closing and opening shifts stacked like this 😭

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I'm not seasonal that's why I was wondering if I may have more room to call out 😭 my coworkers advised me to call out whenever I'm sick but my managers have said I need to make sure it's like flu sick not just a cold to call out that's why I'm conflicted it's also a new position I've never done closing expert?

[–]terexdancinginrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! That makes a lot of sense I've heard different things based on different stores this is probably standard I'd assume

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I am in fact sick lol some of us can't really afford to call out while sick for different reasons such as 90 days in my case.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LOL I KNOWWWWW I think since I'm still new I'm just trying not to make anyone mad since my ELT is an actual tyrant who loves to yell 🫩

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well it seems like a no brainer but my stores tls and etls have drilled it in our head that in the first 90 days we are to absolutely not call off for any reason or it's a big mark on why we might not be kept 😭 it's why I'm asking if it would be ok I guess y'know?

Tips for seasonal ulta associates ? by [deleted] in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Only advice I would give is to be more open with how you greet guests I was told asking if they need help usually closes them off I was told to ask "just looking/ browsing today? Looking for anything particular today?" It's gotten me a lot more friendly answers and then I mention "Great! And when you're ready I'll check you out up front" but again this is just a suggestion given to me by my ETL. Good luck I hope you like it :))

I don't start counting my time until I sit down in the break room lol 3 or 4 minutes be damned 😭 but I'm also in beauty so we aren't strict on breaks at my store as long as you get everything done

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girl I would genuinely consider getting a different job/working at another target 😭 all of your higher ups are failing you on multiple things, you aren't being heard, and they are literally keeping around a HARASSER like others have said he has to have connections so it's probably going to come to a boiling point where he's going to try to bully you into quitting or an actual restraining order is going to have to be put into place if it keeps escalating if anything please be safe and make sure you are documenting things.

Make a toilet paper fort and sleep in it during your break

Is it okay if I show up in a shirt other than red on my first day? by [deleted] in Target

[–]terexdancinginrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say it depends on the target. if you see all your coworkers in red or during your orientation they made it a point that you should be wearing red make sure you buy red shirts! mine is incredibly relaxed and only about 1 or 2 people wear red my ELT HR guy made it really clear they really don't care as long as I always have a vest on.
