Before I start I understand hour cuts are to save money and if you read my earlier post with the slow (flo) team at our store we are frequently over in hours thanks to them.
so on to why I’m here. Past two weeks I’ve been screwed over multiple times. So my boss promised me he would hire someone to help me and he held up his promise and hired this new kid. Good worker and picked up backroom pretty quick. So my boss said “this Thursday he’s gonna help you with the close for two hours.” Great I’m happy. Thursday comes around and my boss walks up and says “look I’m sorry but clerical (or whoever fucks with the schedule) cut the new kid so your gonna have to close alone.

(5) I started cashiering at my Target store back in January of ’14. I had no idea what I was getting myself into, I just knew I had to start somewhere in this rat race. I was hired a few weeks after being sent home from a failed attempt at joining the military. Long story short I couldn’t complete boot because of physical and mental health issues. So I was already not very happy when I was hired. Embedded in my head was not to be a “dirty civillian” and a month later there I am.
No one really trained me, I just read the cashiering book and I was pretty much set. Several weeks later I didn’t feel any less worse about myself. Then it became months. Then about half a year I got my review.

I just started working there and on the first day the orientation leader contradicted herself. She said we shouldn’t come to work when we are sick but 5 minutes later she said we should be good employees and show up even if were sick. Which is it? I also asked about the data breach and what to tell the customer if they ask and she said she was over it.

I’ve come to this glorious website today to share with you all that as of today, September 19th, I am no longer employed at Target!
No more worrying about absurd expectations of productivity, the “vibe,” guests, accuracy or any of that bullshit.

I honestly wanted to be trained there because my current work center was designated to Softlines and I hate Softlines. I had no idea that team members who work in Electronics got paid more. I just felt that I would enjoy it a lot more than Softlines.
The HR person agreed, and then told me I would get a 50 cent raise. The other HR person then told me again, that I would be getting a 50 cent raise. I thought, great, and went ahead with training in Electronics.

However, I extra hate extra bitchy guests who think they are right. Don’t tell me the guest is always right, because trust me, this bitch was fifty shades of fucked up.
Guestzilla – Where are your electric can openers?
Likes(39)Dislikes(25) I have a question about mytime! Does anyone know if it is even possible to change your availability? I will be starting school and will need the whole week off basically but can only work on the weekends. Does anyone know if I can request this change? If so, how long would it take? Does it really go to corporate and then back for approval? Wouldnt that take weeks? Yikes! Im hoping to speak to my HR but hes really unapproachable and cold and cruel.

I get 30% employee discount and a better plan, I’m excited to start in the next couple of days. If you don’t remember me, I posted this post back in the summer
Target=Retail Hell, now I know why the main color is Red
A few things have happened since then since I got a new job.

I even have a gift card from Tarshit that I will probably never use because that is how much I still cannot stand that fucking “company”. I haven’t even been able to step into other Tarshits.
