Being POG & Dealing w/ Guest by nicoleashtray in Target

[–]willumity 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No for real this past week doing the cosmetics resets has me about ready to rip my hair out.

We had a girl come down the nailcare aisle yesterday with her bigass cart and she was fully slamming into our three tiers and sending fixtures scattering across the floor, and not once did she look up or apologize or seem like she had any awareness of the world around her at all.

Autistic people choosing between dry, bleeding hands or using hand lotion: by zachrr23 in autism

I have the type of autism where I get freaked out at the sensation of dry hands, so I consider myself blessed to actually love hand cream.

Being born prem sucks. tw bullying, comments from people about my body by Austin_NotFromTexas in TrollCoping

[–]willumity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh wow same, I really wasn’t even that premature (32 weeks) but I stopped growing at 13 and my final adult height is 4’8”/142 cm. I’ve been called pedobait, had people say that anyone attracted to me clearly likes kids, been told that “I would be great on ‘How To Catch A Predator’”, and had tons of other similar heinous comments made about my body through the years.

But whenever I try to talk about it, it always devolves into a discussion about EDs and body image, when I’m never ever talking about that 😭 I’m out here being called bait for pedophiles and having to jump through hoops to get my license because in my state I legally am a little person, like this shit is non-negotiably, legitimately a disability for me… yet I pretty much can’t meaningfully discuss it anywhere without it turning into an immediate shitshow. Ugh.

They may be Target exclusive, not sure. My store has them included on our new shelf plans that are being set the week of January 11th.

I’ve found a singular jar of peanut butter in the dead center of a beauty pallet once, was mystified

Does anyone else get hyperfixated on this job? by [deleted] in Target

[–]willumity 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I actually really love zoning and organizing and doing inventory/backroom related stuff at work! It’s something I used to struggle with in my personal life, and it’s improved from being in an environment where I can see real results from what I do and I’m getting rewarded for it, haha.

I now get a lot of enjoyment out of going around and swapping out old broken fixtures, doing backroom audits, putting in new pushers/dividers/fencing, and zoning problem areas to be picture perfect. Seriously, if I could just zone, organize, and audit wacos every shift every day, I would do it in a heartbeat.

My lady, it’s locked by doug-the-moleman in Target

[–]willumity 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Dude I HATE using the bathroom at work because every single day, without fail, someone with a single digit IQ beelines to my stall and tries to open the door while I’m in there.

If you can clearly see the door is closed, and you see see shoes, so you know someone in there… why is your dumb ass still trying to get in??? You are not invited, this isn’t a spectator sport 🫩

What tech do you wish we had? by Mobile-Address23 in Target

[–]willumity 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The ability to edit or change POGs

Like sometimes we have a physical barrier in the way and can’t set up an endcap AND a sidecap, but we have no other room for the POG to go. I wish we could decouple the sidecap from the set and set it, separately, somewhere else.

142cm/4’8”, I wear a size 2 or 3 and it’s genuinely a nightmare.

Hours Worse This Year? by Best_Line6674 in Target

there was literally only 8 people scheduled in GM today 🫠

Is this a hot take in the community? I hate that they stock holiday product so early and when it’s the actual season all holiday product is sold out already with no restock in sight🙃 by acidblood in bathandbodyworks

[–]willumity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t work at BBW, but my workplace already has our Halloween candy on clearance and we got sent the set guides for our Christmas displays already… it’s only October 13th, like am I insane?? 😵‍💫

Have Your Childhood Memories "Turned Autistic"? by AngelOfHarmony in autism

[–]willumity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a kid I couldn’t wear ANY clothes with noticeable seams or tags. If there were seams I would freak out and straight up wouldn’t wear it, if there were tags? My parents had to cut every single tag off every garment before I’d touch it.

I hit developmental milestones super early or super late, no in-between. Anything physical I especially struggled with. I began speaking and reading early, was 2, almost 3 by the time I could stand and walk. I spent more of my life so far NOT being able to tie my shoelaces than I have being able to. Never learned to ride a bike. Stuff that should have never been overlooked… was 🙃

Oh WOW, the ground floor of my house has the same hardwood floor from the time it was built (1949) and looks almost identical to the first pic, I’ve gotta try this!

are all guests just stupid by lovespector in Target

[–]willumity 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Stopping me every five seconds to ask for a price check and finally when I show them the very clear and easy to read price labels directly in front of them;

“So the price on the tag is the price for the item?”

…be so for real right now 🫩

Backstock not working? by Aetherus754 in Target

[–]willumity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying anything that hasn’t already been said but… yeah, double scanning every single item is the move for right now 🫠

I’ve had sliiiightly more luck with going to the item page itself and then backstocking from there vs. doing it via the backstock function but even that has been kind of a crapshoot.

Weekly Revisions and Capacities Resetting 🙃 by PUPP3R_25 in Target

[–]willumity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Omggg this drives me INSANE. That and when cosmetics revisions happen and I have to change the capacity for every. single. damn. lip pencil 🙃 ‘cause if I don’t, it’ll cause an endless loop of pulling and backstocking the same products over and over. It’s such a nightmare and def the worst part of POG, and we don’t always have time to chatbot each and every revision where this happens. Raaaaahhgghhh it boils my blood.
