I was reluctant to write this but I figured if I could deter even one person from working at Target as cart attendant then I have succeeded.
I started working for target about 2 years ago,(quit just before my 2 years) took the job because I figured I could use some money and experience since it was my first job. The hiring process took about 2 weeks which wasn’t too bad. Although I have heard from several people that the hiring process took at least a month.

There was this GSA at my store who was always such a hawk about the redcards. Asked us every 5 minutes if we had gotten a RedCard, always singled people out who hadn’t gotten one yet, stuff like that. Well, recently, our GSTL quit and she got the promotiom.

I’ve spent a lot of time reading posts by other Cart Attendants and the common theme is that they are all ridiculously overworked and berated by their LOD’s for not getting everything done on time. I’m kind of going through the opposite situation, and need advice. I’m bored out of my mind. Every. Single. Day.

I worked for target from 2002 till 2012. I managed to last 10 years in the “culture” and I still to this day do not know how. I was an original member of the start-up crew at the T-587 Distribution center in Galesburg Michigan and when I first landed a job with Target, I thought I’d won the job lottery. It didn’t take long to find out how seriously wrong I was.

Annie hung out with two team members outside of work, and one of them (Thomas), roughly pinned her down to a couch and dry humped her while he was drunk. The other team member, James, was asleep in his room and didn’t see the event take place. Annie was sober, and in a panic, disassociated from the assault and drove Thomas home. She filed a police report against Thomas and is trying to get a no-contact court order.

As I was already trained there, the TL over there offered me the opening, saying I would get a 25 cent raise for it. I was happy and agreed, because hey, that combined with the 16 cent raise I got earlier in the year would have actually made a slight difference.

Likes(21)Dislikes(2) Well I might as well tell you guys about the first time I ever cried at target and how my ETL handled it. It was a hectic evening back at electronics and mobile and I were working on CDs. On the we were the only ones on the floor the first Hardlines employee coming in an hour or two. A huge guy came up to us, laughing and blinking a lot, and starting yelling (still laughing it was kind f scary) about how he has pressed a help button and waited 20 minutes and got help. The first two things that came to mind was how one, we wouldn’t have even gotten to 45 seconds with someone getting it. And two, how the location he was describing doesn’t even have a call button. We apologized saying we can help him but he was stuck on my apology, saying its not sincere enough and how this isn’t real customer service. At this point mobile and I are both pretty scared.
