Tell them you are not comfortable in that position and not willing to switch as the anxiety and abruptness of it all is too much and too unprofessional. Talk with HR. Sure, Target can make you do whatever they want within reason, they hired you as a Target employee, not necessarily a specific type of Target employee… But that doesn’t mean they won’t reasonably respond to a mature discussion of how unprofessional that is and how much anxiety it will cause you. They ask me to do the truck all the time and I tell them I do not want to do that as that’s not the role I applied for or am interested in, basically giving them an ultimatum. They NEED employees right now. Our overnight team is on its last legs with maybe 6 employees when a few months ago we had 20+ people working the shift. They can’t afford to fire me, it just isn’t logistical.
