    ETLs are not humans

    Ok, I’m just 100%, ammend the constitution, stop the presses, sure that ETLs are not human beings.  They are some sort of mutant alien robot void of empathy and human emotion.  Have you ever talked to an ETl about anything other than Target?  I understand this could be completely subjective, but none of my managers have any desire for anything other than driving sales and pushing red cards.

  • We just LOVE it when you have fucking 7 separate transactions, each time paying with the exact fucking same credit card because you “gotta get those miles”. I like it when you take fucking forever to find your credit card and I wind up getting a poor cashier score so my LOD complains about my R’s. I also like when you pay entirely in 1’s… I mean really? What are we your fucking bank?? I like it when you have a motherfucking screaming baby who you just let yell and fucking yell. I like it more when you reward the negative behavior with candy or affection. That kid don’t need fucking candy, he needs a good fucking ass beating. I guaran fucking tee you if that kid kid got ass whoopings regularly he wouldn’t be doing that shit.

  • A guy named Jerry is working fixing electrical at my sisters house and it seems to be taking too long.  I over heard him saying he worked at Target night stock manager in camarillo CA.  Is there a night manager in Camarillo named Jerry?  Stock Manager?  He said it was his first day back after 8 months off due to back injury.  I just need to know if this guy is telling the truth or not.  Or if he is scamming my sister?  please text my phone at REMOVED if you know something.  I really would appreciate it.

    P.S.  update.  my sister said Jerry ran off to his first night back at work at Target and then showed up at her house again three hours later saying they fired him.  Does this sound like something Target would do?

    Hate my job

    I don’t really have an issue with the guests. I get 1-4 redcards a night but I do it more because I like to help guests, and SOMETIMES they give us free electronics movies (or rare cases they give you any item from electronics and once I grabbed a $14.99 skylander and have a bunch of freebie $5 movies) but none of this has to do with my issue. I’m autistic so I tend to be very specific in how I interact with most guests, and I tell jokes like “I see you bought some alchohol, well I don’t have to wish you a good night, you’ve planned ahead, but make sure the next morning isn’t so bad” and people laugh, I tell people “If you subscribe to Playstation Plus instead of buying this game you can get it for free, and like 15 other games” and so the guests really aren’t my issue.

    My issue is with the indentured servitude bullshit. My issue is with them acting like we owe them something because they pay us a MIRACULOUS 50 cents or maybe a dollar or 2 above the federal minimum wage based on circumstances, and you have a chance to get like 15-30 cents raise maybe or what ever. Tonight was a huge straw and I was seeing red, punching walls, and nearly flipped my vehicle I was so angry. I was scheduled from 6:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m. and then scheduled from 9:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and then they had the balls to keep us an hour and a half late.

    District 311

    To hell with Target. Guess the district manager, the district human resources manager, the group leader, the regional whatever title he was and s slew of target etl’s, some senior team leads and team leaders all who have all quit target-all from the Houston area must have seen/experienced the stressful, demonizing, outrageous company that target has become. Senior management in all of these local stores are harassing the hell out of team members about red cards even off the clock,by  text messages, on their lunch breaks, breaks, calling the the damn stores every 30 minutes to the hours to see how much red cards they store has!!

    No More (Part Two)

    The FA at my Target is quite possibly the most boring place on earth. I clean everything several times over and get bored. I can only clean the same (already clean) 25 square feet of space so many times in a day before wanting to do something else. I’m the only one that does the monthly tasks and I usually do about half of the weekly tasks. Truthfully I just want to work somewhere else in the store.

  • Are GSAs supposed to be in charge of FA? They are at the store I work at.

    The only reason I have a problem with this is that our GSAs also go on major power trips. The only good one left right after my ninety days ended she was a genuinely nice person and she was fantastic at her job. The rest of them are either nice or know what they are doing. Occasionally both happen at the same time, but more often than not neither does. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t dislike them all. I just hate working with most of them. Truthfully I just hate that they’re in charge because all sorts of things end up going wrong.

  • Be aware of Target using their most friendly executives to exclaim how happy everyone team member is over the walkie this holiday season. For example, while team members are on the sales floor, an exec may over exclaim, “thank you” ” you’re all appreciated” “We’re all going to have a great Thanksgiving,” etc.. In the midst of employee rebellion,  walmart strikes, protests, and social media campaigns exposing low wages, target will use their obedient executives to over exaggerate the happiness within each store with some innocent, naive employees replying back “your welcome” “anything for you . . . ” and other affirming replies. Just because some team members affirm the exec’s happy go lucky shout out over the walkie, it does not mean we agree, it does not mean we are happy with their favoritism, and it does not mean we enjoy target giving exec jobs to the privileged over the working class and poor, who dedicate years to target, hoping to become exec one day. It is important to consider joining the social media conversation about low wages because Walmart is the focus and Target is rarely mentioned. If one makes an alternate fb or social media account it might make voicing injustices easier. As one social media outlet suggests “troll them into submission.” This method resulted in jpmorgan canceling their twitter. Anyways, be aware this holiday season and keep fighting the good fight. #targetwatchdog #occupy #anonymous #targetsucks

  • Ohhhhhkay. So. I had a customer who was obviously pissed off, and of course, I asked him if he would like to save 5% by getting a Target REDCard… Now, my LOD,GSTL,TL WHATEVER THE FUCK YOU CALL THE MANAGER, told me I wasn’t selling enough REDCards and that I had to be more persistant.. so.. customer walks up, has maybe 8 items, so I have to be quick. Hello sir how are you on this fine evening? Guy says “fine” in a business-like manner, so I can tell he’s pissed off and in a rush.  I ask him if he’d like to save 5 percent… no.
