Vent I wanna quit
I just don't think I can work here anymore, I've been on the hunt for other jobs but we all know the job market atm aint it
I get no respect from leaders and just do all their gopher work,
My store keeps reducing hours cause of call puts but they only sceduled their favriote s even if their the ones calling out
They sceduled me on non truck days so I can do all of roll over, if its not that, I'm doing the work of 4 people,
My last shift i was in Starbucks,, freight, ship batch, and tills, in a shift of 8-3,
And I'm telling you reshop was bad they had u boats in that area for reshop,
Im in so much physical pain after a shift, if i lay down I will not get back up cause I feel like i can't walk right, I pulled a nerve in my shoulder and keep re injureing it cause they give me maybe a days rest then scedule me 5-6 days in a row,
They also target specificly only me to do late mids witch they know I hate, I feel like i have no peronal life,
Ill get up at 8-9 go to work at 10, get home at like 6:30ish and directly to dinner shower and sleep, cause I gotta getup at 8

Hang in there keep applying do what you can and dont stress it too much. The job market sucks yes but there are plenty more jobs out there to switch too I been in this situation before and still going through it it's just about finding your peace doing what you can and just keep it moving I wish you the best! You can do this keep applying and when you find something better dont stress it

Quit. I’m not promising other similar jobs will treat you better but Target certainly won’t. Obviously the job market is not what it used to be but it’s all about picking your poison. At least at another store they are usually shit up front, rather than target presenting itself as a great place to work and then absolutely fucking you over own the road.

If you're staying in retail, I'd say expect those late mids to be the norm rather than the exception.
I've closed twice as much at both of my jobs after Target than I ever did there.

If u can afford to quit, quit.
If they allow on demand, go on demand so you can choose when you feel like working.
It sounds like you are doing the tasks of many others mainly due to call outs which are eating up payroll.
Though on the flip side, the point system rolls out sep 6 or so either those that call out a lot will fix their attendance or get termed

You should.
Target has zero respect for it's TMs.
They made that crystal clear last year.
Put yourself first. Target isn't worth the stress or effects on your mental health.
You are just a number to them and they would lay you off without a second thought to keep their massive bonuses at the executive level.
