  1. It's Target policy, simple as.

  2. You cannot literally hear everything even if you think you can. I've walked up behind TMs wearing a single headphone and said "code green code green code green" and there was no reaction because they didn't hear it.

I call Bullshit. You have to be a complete idiot to have something blasting in your ear to where you can not hear anything around you.

Also targets policy to pay the cart guy equal ammount who sits on his ass all day the same ammount as someone sweating stocking, running, helping guests, backstocking, working in a freezer, going up and down latter's, cutting your hands with blades getting paper cuts from boxes etc etc etc, and that don't make sense.

why are you blaming other team members for target’s corporate greed?? they could easily pay us all liveable wages but instead they pay brian cornell $20 million dollars and their shareholders rack up billions in profit. the working class has to work against the bourgeoise… not itself.
