Target Sucks - We Hate Target and We Know We're Not Alone.

Modern day slavery???

I’m not sure if anybody notices, but at the target I work at a in Chicago, the cart attendents are black and Latino and the cashiers are women. Does this happen anywhere else? Wouldn’t it be nice if there was more than one male cashier and white cart attendent? Just something I brought up with the brand attendant.

    Hourly wage, especially in the cases of these low paying companies with non-livable wages, is modern day slavery regardless of race.

    Our store has mostly young white male cart attendants. Our cashiers are mixed, men, women, old, young, and all races..

    I live in Minnesota, I'm a cashier. We have a big mixture of all cultures up here. For some reason, illegals just jump apart from the South and find a way to get away from the police by getting to ole liberty always state of Minnesota. Blacks, Asians, Whites, Mexicans, super black African wooha talking wierdos, and Muslims. Target overall is slavery though. All jobs are slavery. Work for money? Really? Land of the free? Hell no. It's only free for the illegal immigrants who don't have to work because they can't speak English and all businesses speak English so the government says ok, we give you section 8 housing, you buy house for all your 8 Chinese children. I have met many tons of Asain people who live for absolutely free because they're parents got here illegally and have section 8 housing and they have personally told me there parents don't know English. I hate this country and Target.

      Not all asians are bad. Just the newer generation that is greedy as fuck. Don't tar all asians with the same brush. I'm chinese too and we own our own home. We don't smooch if we can help it. Also blame it on your government for being lazy as fuck too. Up here in Canada there are such things as free ESL lessons for new immigrants to teach them basic english.Don't speak english? Have someone teach them. There you just created a new job and new position. Then when they find a job they can pay taxes and your government can charge them rent. better make that land of the lazy. My retired immigrant neighbour managed to learn a smattering of basic english for everyday life. Anyone can learn if they put their mind to it. She even found a part time job at a local grocer. And they do know a few words of english even if they don't actually speak it. they just don't know it's english. Since they hear other people using an english word to refer to a certain thing or trend and they follow and eventually it's second nature and they don't use the original chinese word for a particular thingy.

    Almost all of us are African American at my Target. A majority of us are women, too.

    What I see more common is the agism and sexism in play across more regions. it doesn't matter what race you are as long as you're young and pretty. Then there's a couple guys in the backroom, one or two old ladies and a couple of randoms thrown in there.

    Most of the cart attendents at my Target have issues or disabilities including myself, all eight of them are white.

    At the Target I worked at, our cart attendant was literally mentally r******d. They fucked with him so bad. I mean, I'm definitely not the nicest person, but when it comes to people with legitimate mental disabilities, I don't fuck with that. This poor guy was miserable, but they never gave him any help during snowstorms, rain storms, etc. because they knew he was too mentally handicapped to ask for help, or maybe even realize how badly he was being mistreated.

    One especially snowy night (I live in Montana), I noticed the cart attendant having trouble with all of the carts. I asked my LOD if I could go and give him a hand and leave the zone for a bit, and my LOD told me no, and "Just let Rainman handle it himself". Witty? Yes. Fucked up? YES.

    Here in Montana, race isn't an issue, so all of the blacks and hispanics worked inside, either on the salesfloor, plano team, etc. Our cart attendants were just the social rejects that Target didn't want dealing with customers because of their weird personalities. Target sucks balls, basically.

    Theres no racism at the target where I work but ive noticed as well that brand attendants in the store are mentally disabled. They say that they treat everyone equally but they put the different people far away from guests.
