Do as I say, not as I do.
Well, I just quit Target and I already feel better. I was plagued by incompotent, irrational managers. They always complained and corrected everyone around them even though they, themselves never obeyed the rules that they so righteously enforced. It amazed me that these people who have to have a college degree to be an ETL are this stupid. Example: I showed up to work one Sunday morning to set up the new ad. It was 6 am and the team was ready to go…except the ETL’s that were supposed to be there. I got the team started and found out that the ad wasn’t even finished being scanned in. Arrgh! I proceeded to finish scanning while the team put up what was ready. At 6:30am the ETL’s stroll in. They didn’t even ask what was going on or offer to help. They then took an hour lunch at 10 am and the ad wasn’t even done yet. That Monday I told the STL what had happened and she did nothing about it. Some nerve! The next week I get pulled into the office for being “grumpy” at work. WTF! In any other job when someone is grumpy you leave them alone and chalk it up to a bad day, not pull them into the office and piss them off more! They give more consideration to the employees there and hardly any to the lower managers. Employees can complain about a manager and the ETL’s and STL will crucify the lower manager. In other jobs when a manager gets on your case you do your fucking job, not run to a higher manager and complain. Target is backwards. Employees have the power and lower management gets crapped on. That’s why I had enough and quit 20 minutes before my shift started. BEST DAY EVER!!

You said "Arrgh!"...Are you a pirate? If so, that is awesome.
I think you need to do an addendum, you should say all the kiss asses who are lower employees have the power and the LOD's like to watch everyone fight one another, it's called a god complex I think. (anyone want to chime in here and help me out with the proper wording) But yes that is the best day ever, when you realize you don't have to go to that shitty place anymore, unless you wanna go in and mess it up, like I do.
I agree that the kiss asses have the power there. Most of those are the ETL's or the random GSA that can do no wrong. LOD's do like to pit employees against each other like Thunderdome.
I truly envy everyone who gets to leave but unfortunately I cannot lose my job right now until I have another one. That doesn't mean I wont get fired tomorrow. I am having some major issues with another team member who keeps lying on me saying I said stuff I never said and even told the TLs & ETLs that MY FRIEND told her I said something that I didn't even say. My friend is absolutely livid BUT she can't do anything because I was sworn to secrecy.... well told not to repeat what was said. That's BULLSHIT!!!!!!!! She deserves to know that the freak lied about her to get me in trouble and her out of trouble. She obviously will go to any measure to get me in trouble seeing that the first incident she claims I cursed & we both had to write statements. WTF? Seriously?? GET REAL! She's had it out with so many people in the store yet good old Target keeps her on. I've amped up my job search yet again because obviously I cannot maintain a good attitude at work knowing that every move I make she's contemplating what she can say I did to get me in trouble. She's a spiteful psycho! I so wish I could write a good quitting story but hopefully soon I will!
Sometimes, you need to be Bugs Bunny.
^^hahahahahaha
It's kinda sad that the youts of today will probably not understand that reference...or the youts one. 🙂
Dem wask'wy wabbits. Ugh...I hated Bugs Bunny haha. I think it was all the white trash that wore those ugly t-shirts with him on it. Then when Space Jam came out, it just sent me over the edge.
But I must admit, I would rather be yesterday's yout and remember Bugs Bunny than be today's yout and have to deal with Justin Beiber.
Well, Bugs had a great message. If somebody is trying to shoot you, give them a kiss on the cheek. That'll piss them off a lot more than a slap in the face.
That was very sentimental of you. Are you going soft on me?? 😉 jk
I think I better leave that one alone. 😉
Hahahahahaha Ahh Gahh! I sounded like a fuckin perv, didn't I. "My bad", as they say in "the hood".
Tits, ok, we'll make the breast of it.
A play on words, I see... I can't match it. My brain's fried. I look worse than a dried out turd on a bad stretch of road. These people are lucky tonight; I'm even too tired to come up with bitchy shit to say. Ughh.... Something's wrong with me.... haha
Ha! Don't worry, I'm sure your wrath with rain upon them soon enough. For the record though, the proper response is: Twat's that? I cunt hear you. 🙂
Ah that's right. I was sitting here at my computer, looking at what you'd said, and I was like "Fuck me, I can't remember the rest of that..." I've been on Hydrocodone and steroid treatments for my back all week, so I can't say I'm that surprised that I couldn't figure it out haha
OMG, Target is such a boring place to shop, bitch please, Walmart is more fun than Target, in Target, you get in trouble in like 5 seconds, Shit is true that Walmart is cheaper than Target.
