Thread regarding Target Corp. layoffs

Having trouble doing what needs to be done

We are severely understaffed at my store - to the point where overtime is gone within a week or two. And there is no indication they are planning to hire any people to help. I really don't understand their reasoning.

How is this good for business? It's costing us customers on a daily basis...

so back to the point. There are hundreds of jobs available to you or whomever in So Cal. So Cal = Santa Barbara to Riverside. SoCal isn't just Long Beach or LA, although anything within 50 of Long Beach would be SoCal. But yes, this entire thread is pointless and you and I going back and forth isn't helping anyone.

eibr: You're starting to get warm union hack! Now if you just had a clue about staffing levels in one of these high volume stores, let alone 150+ locations you'd realize how laughably ignorant it would be that say that for instance Culver City or Pasadena would only be hiring 1-3 TM's. Say, 10+ at each for example.

Hello.... A city is a city. Targets open position search tool is searchable by city, not buy area. I realize large concepts are difficult for Mr. union hack to handle.

No such thing as full-time anymore. They only want us to work 26 hours a week so they don’t have to pay us insurance. Which in fact saves them a ton of money. Thanks Target. I’m sure corporate people still get their benefits and health insurance. As we struggle in stores to do the work of four people in a five hour shift if not we’re written up

the only reason they beat sales is by lowering daily sale expectations why are same store sales negative year over year?

etl on walkie: tm jones your beeping for approaching ot you need to clock and tm smith your beeping for working 15 minutes past your shift. that's the fact we all hear it everyday you have alot of nerve with your lies or maybe you work in the target fantasy store. target is hiring all part time to replace the full-timers they railroad out if you want a part-time job and want to be abused one or two days a week spot's the place for you

2uvb: Hey, no one who is on Target The Layoff is happy.... Remodels are not being paid for by cutting hours and reducing sales goals, that is ludicrous. Stores are consistently k–ling mature sales comps. We are actually raising our sales goals and increasing our HOUr allocation. We don't have enough staff to fill them: FACT! Have you seen any of the hundreds of reports on Target lately?

Minneapolis suburb here. Come one, come all. Plenty of hours here for you. We've beat sales goals for months and months. College help is heading back to school. We need people to fill shifts, I am doing the work of 2 people not because of cuts, but because we can't hire enough people. Starting wage is $13. Not bad for a cashier. Help!

you guys are obviously very happy so what are you posting on the target layoff line for why are you even here? talk about reality distortion they are paying for remodels by cutting hours and reducing daily sales goals wake up

Post ID: @1eyk+10J8mVnm

But i thought no one was getting enough hours????? OP, Holiday staffing will start in a couple weeks so you’ll have more friends in red shirts very soon.

And profit through cuts???? What???? We are beating sales week after week, apparently Target as a whole just posted their best quarterly sales increase in years.

This board is stuck in a realty distortion, confirmation bias vortex.
