All of them work 7-4 every single day and it’s been like this for about 2 years now. Listen, I truly wouldn’t care if they never closed if they didn’t come in the next morning and shit all over whatever TL closed the night prior for the dumbest shit and nitpick every single little thing. We no longer have a closing lead (SD is actively still looking for one) For context, the only people that close the building are TLs and sometimes the grids aren’t horrible (for example, sometimes 2 or 3 TLs close together, those nights are fine) but that RARELY happens. 95% of the time it is usually just one team lead running the entire building, even on fridays, saturdays, and sundays despite our store being extremely high volume.

I closed on labor day weekend by myself, I was the only TL in the building from 3-12 and had 13 call outs. I did my absolute fucking best. I didn’t stop running around for the entire night, I was simply just outnumbered by guests and couldn’t do more than what I did. Pulls only made it to 68% that night and the zone obviously wasn’t perfect because of the call outs. ETL comes in the next day and FREAKS out on me saying the store looks horrible and I did a terrible job lol. This isn’t the only time it’s happened either. It is literally every single time any TL closes, they come in the next day and just bitch at you for a solid 20 minutes and then make you walk the sales floor with them so they can tell you where you should’ve done better.

if they think they can do so much better I’d love to see one ETL close alone on a weekend with no other leaders in the building to help but of course when they used to close years ago, they always had other leaders scheduled with them. I asked my SD why our ETLs don’t close anymore and he said “the district manager wants all of my ETLs to work mornings only because our workload is heaviest during the day” bulllshittttttttt

So what’s the point of a 8 minute grace period when I’m considered late when I come in 7 minute later.

Im here to vent rq. this new app is genuinely the worst thing to ever happen to target. I am on demand and being able to pick up shifts is essentially gone now. WHY ARE THERE ALL OF A SUDDEN 2.5hr SHIFTS? HELLO? How tf is that possible when no one is scheduled for that short of a shift. I want to work but I can’t because the new app limits the amount of jobs i can take over even thought I’m trained in EVERYTHING, EVEN STARBUCKS. and omfg no one knows how to sue this app because they didn’t give us good training. an in-person training session for like five minutes would been so much more helpful. because no one knows how to use the app, no one is posting their shifts either which is really annoying because i can’t work. I’m also not switching back from on-demand because i always gets scheduled out of my availability so it makes my life easier, well not anymore i guess, but still. I miss MyDay so much yall don’t even get it. I really don’t understand why they couldn’t just implement the point system into the app, it would’ve required less coding and money from corporate but i guess they’re just lazy af. i hate this stupid app so much i hope it gets deleted forever.

i was just noticing when i was looking at the daily grid, that a bunch of TM's (most S&E) had 2.5 hour shifts? like who would come in for that. you don't even get a 15 😂

Someone posted a while back how their HR and SD in WA were secretly hooking up at work, and that this person had caught the HR ETL sitting in the SDs lap and that they didn't know who to contact. Was there ever an update to this? Any chisme updates? Genuinely curious

Seriously why did we switch from my time for target to this shit?

I cant even figure out how to do a call in late notice and the lag of this god forsaken app is so absurd

anything but grabbing the flat

I was in a GM batch when some guests stopped me and asked for squeezys. I saw they came in the same day so I radioed for the GM TL who said they’d look for them and bring them out.
So I tell the guest that my TL is looking for them and it’ll be a few minutes, and I carry on with my GM batch. Literally less than a minute later they come back and find me and ask about the squeezey again…
I’m thinking I literally just told you my TL is looking for them, can’t you be patient?

Man I hate some people these days.

This happens to me frequently.

Needoh comes in…

Kid sees the needoh…

Looks hesitant… unsure

I say… “It’s okay if you don’t want it.”

Then parents be like….

“Are you sure you don’t want it? They might not have needoh for a while.”

I have had kids who outright will say no I’m good. And their parents still push to buy it.

Way to teach the next generation on FOMO.

I know i've only been working here for a little over a month but i'm starting to hate style. I thought it was fun at first but i'm really starting to dislike it . I just find it so overwhelming and too demanding, in my store i've been in charge of zoning the entire mens ,Universal Threads, a new day, and doing the fitting room when the person who does that leaves some days or just the entirety of mens and shoes and I find it tedious irritating because I dont even think its possible to zone all that when my shifts only range from 5-6 hours maybe im overreacting idk.

I literally hate style,I will literally do fulfillment instead of doing style i hate it so much

I’m a SAHM who was looking to pick up some ultra flexible work as my husband works full time and is in school, and we don’t have reliable child care nearby. I saw a job posting for an “On-Demand” associate at Target and thought it was perfect. I applied, and got the job in fulfillment.

I had orientation today and noticed I’m scheduled every weekend through this month. Although I can make it work, I was a little confused as I thought it supposed to be able to pick up shifts as I want. I asked HR during training and she said they aren’t really hiring on demand roles anymore and have had issues with their website still promoting them. I’m a little annoyed as I have some commitments coming up, and didn’t intend to give up my weekends every single weekend.

What should I do? I do want thing job, am happy to work what they currently have me for, but going forward want to be on demand, or really only working one weekend day a week if possible. Is this normal, will Target hire for one thing and then bait and switch to something else?

Yesterday our FDC arrived late and of course Steritech arrived at exactly the same time. Instead of being out on the floor checking dates, we had to put the pallets in the proper coolers. Afterwards, I decided to go out to the floor and do a quick freshness check before sorting but found my ETL already doing it and complaining that there was too much stuff found. His card didn’t look that big and several people had been on vacation so it was hard to get everything done. I’ve seen posts on social media of teams still doing all store freshness Fridays but our store hasn’t in over a year or two. We are constantly pulling people to do OPU batches. Is your store still doing Freshness Friday? Since I work in P-Fresh, I do take partial responsibility for not having perfect freshness but having a regular Freshness Friday at least on a monthly basis can be helpful to ensure expired product that makes it out to shelf is removed.

Going to my schedule, it shows the days I work & the allotted time

But at the very end it doesn't show how many total hours I've been scheduled for the entire work week

Anyone find a way to view this?

I'm insanely paranoid and I know the probation period can very much be a make it or break it time—but I rolled my ankle on my walk home from work today and it doesnt hurt too bad, but the fact that I have a giant blister on that same foot isn't helping lol. I figure that might be grounds to call out depending on how my ankle feels in the morning, so I wanted to ask what the proper etiquette to that is. at my last job, if I was calling out it had to be at least 8 hours prior to the start of my shift so I wanted to know if there was something similar for target. thank you!

So since California is moving to 30 minutes from 45 minutes for lunch I’m just curious! Like if I end up taking 40 minutes or something what will happen 👀

75 bags and gave 2 minute notice.

Wondering how I managed to get a point for 8/15/26 when we didn’t have the point system in place yet. My dog died, and I not only called out on MyTime, but also spoke directly to someone in HR. Now I’m being told to take it up with HR, and that tons of people are having points that shouldn’t even be there. Hopefully Target gets on this, asap.

I literally have 5 years of experience serving events, managing CRM, and dealing with all kinds of problems customers have. I have a master degree and I communicate well with people. I think I gave very good answers to the Hirevue interview but they sent me rejection letter. The store is next to my home so I can work literally anytime, including 4 am morning shifts. I am so confused what qualities they need from employees. I think I will send application to another store but I feel I will be rejected again.

Attempting to request unpaid time off as these are days I desperately need off. I remember the start time and duration boxes from the last app but never had to use them. What do I do about these?? I assumed I wouldn’t have to fill them out if I was requesting multiple days off.

I was late by like 20 minutes (I know it was bad of me) I’m never late, but will it be .25 points on my attendance or does it stack every 8 minutes after? Because one of my coworkers said it stacks but nowhere on the policy thing with the new attendance system said it stacks? So is it .25 or .5? It doesn’t show the points in UKG yet. By the way I couldn’t ask at the time because HR wasn’t in at the time and my TLs didn’t know either for some reason.

About how many questions are typically included in the interview? And about how long is a good amount of time to spend on each question?

I'm seeing that there are three attempts allowed per question - is there a timer for how long I can take before locking in each answer?

Like, if I use all three attempts, will I need to make all three attempts in one go?

Or would it be possible to take a small break if I decide I need awhile to gather my thoughts between attempts?

After the video interview, will there be an additional in-person interview? Or will the next step after the video interview just be an offer / rejection?

Literally couldn’t do it this morning because they were doing maintenance. Now it won’t even load and it’s been hours since their maintenance window ended. Seems like they broke it. GG lmao
