Anybody else shocked with how poorly Target has been doing? It looks like their stupidity is finally catching up to them. 🤣🤣🤣

Honestly, I could write a book full of ‘wonderful’ stories about the level of incompetence I saw there.
Here are just a few:
1.) The last couple of year there I worked as our store’s receiving associate.
Our truck crew routinely broke things threw them away, then wrote down the UPS and quantity.
Problem was many items that were damaged has to be sent back to our DC our processed as hazardous materials. Talked to Team leads, talked to E. Team Leads, etc. No one seemed to grasp the concept. Doing this not only broke company guidelines, also broke state law by throwing away hazardous materials. It was finally solved when a District Manager witnessed chemicals being thrown in the compactor. People were fired and the situation was resolved.

Not only that, the employee that scans my barcode takes FOREVER to find my order which was only 3 items while another employee who scanned another customer who came in after me comes right back with their order. What makes it worse is that the employee who brought me order DID NOT have one item in a bag when I requested that the store use THEIR BAGS (WHICH THEY HAD PLENTY OF THAT DAY). He then had to get a bag and put that one item in it. Second, after I picked up my order, he obviously DID NOT scan it as picked up because today, 1/17/25, I get another email this morning from the same store telling me that the order I ALREADY PICKED UP was “ready for pick up”. I had to immediately get in touch with Tarshit’s chat system to get this straightened out so that I wouldn’t be double charged for this order. Of course, the ‘associate’ I spoke to was no help. All they did was ‘assure me’ that I wasn’t going to be double charged for the order & told me what I already knew that the ‘team member didn’t mark it as pick up’ & that the ‘tracking’ woud update soon. This is utter BS!!! I have NO FAITH WHATSOEVER in what I was told & I’m expecting a hassle with my CC company if TARSHIT winds up double charging me. What angers me most is that this is NOT the first time that store has done this to me!!!
Likes(5)Dislikes(5) I do! I went over my 5th hour by one minute because the clock logged me in a minute early! Now the HR has to team up with “partners” to decide if they will let me go or not. Part of me is excited I might be free but we all know it’s hard to find any type of job atm. Chin up people. You gotta take those punches in stride. Y’all are awesome!
Likes(7)Dislikes(2) Welp. Wal-mart is probably sitting back with popcorn watching the show at Bellevue Washington. They closed down their Factoria location citing poor sales as the reason, which I suspect might not be an actual reason considering Wal-mart probably does know how to connect with the visible minority in Bellevue unlike what I’ve seen of the Target flyers when they were up here in Canada. And the visible minority spends like water around Xmas and Chinese new year.
So I’m suspecting that Wal-mart gave up it’s location on purpose so boss can have their cat fight. Go get them boss! Maybe Tarshit shouldn’t have tried to defraud their suppliers when they declared bankruptcy in Canada. T&T opened in the vacated location that Walmart previously occupied. Loblaws ain’t messing around.
Likes(2)Dislikes(0) I started working inbound, 4 am shifts a little over a month ago. At first, I was doing what I thought I would be. I put my hours requested for 20-24 hours a week, and started doing multiple 4 hour shifts every other day. It was great- get there early, leave the store at 8 when the store opened. Then, December hits. Immediately my hours are going up to an insane degree, working multiple 8 hour days as opposed to my 4 hour days. I am so fatigued by the end of my shift its insane. The other day, I had two team leads come and complain to me that I wasn’t moving fast enough for inbound- that I needed to be unloading Uboats in 20-40 minutes, tops. In my mind, I’m thinking, what the fuck? It usually takes an hour or longer for a large/filled Uboat unless its larger items. After the first team lead I thought it was fine, but when I had a second guy come, who started hassling me saying I needed to have a sense of “Urgency” and even TIMED ME on how long a flatbed would take to unload. They’re saying it should average 1 minute per box, so he gave me 25 minutes. I’m having to rush to even get this stuff in its place, not to mention the store was open at the time- having to not get in the way of customers. It was awful. He kept talking on the radio as well to check in on me, constantly keeping me moving. I can’t be walking around that fast all day or my legs are gonna give out.

Constant closures and those that managed to stay open in my area, have stopped carrying almost everything we buy on a daily/weekly basis causing us to search literally all over for another store who sells it or have it delivered. As if that weren’t bad enough, now their fricking app no longer lets you track orders. They got rid of the track order option so now you have to either track it through the website or the track order link in the shipping email.
Likes(2)Dislikes(1) Looks like boss isn’t done with Tarshit. Tarshit you are going down. Maybe Tarshit should actually have not tried to defraud their suppliers and their competitors. Classic Tarshit response is to focus on groceries which is what screwed them over the 1st time. Boss planning to expand into the US in the grocery sector.
Likes(16)Dislikes(5) After all this time signing up for Target’s crappy circle, they went and “made it better” by 1) getting rid of the lousy 1% back for non Red Card holders, 2) Auto enrolling circle members into Shipt WITHOUT permission, & 3) removing the ability to enter missed purchases. Before this unwanted & unnecessary “overhaul”, you could either scan a receipt or enter it manually on the app. Now, ALL attempts to scan receipts throw up an error and manual entry has been removed from the app AND the website. Yet the bozos in charge of said site STILL HAVEN’T updated the help section to reflect these changes since it STILL says to either scan or manually enter receipts for missing purchases. So basically now, if you forget to enter your phone number or if someone else in your family doesn’t give the number, you’re out of luck. 😡
Likes(13)Dislikes(0) Target went on an Canadian adventure and came back with a competitor that just won’t leave them alone. They are literally opening very close to Target locations. Target’s classic response is to focus on their weaknesses. Except the last time they focused on what they were weak on; groceries, Tarshit left with their tail behind their legs.
One things is for sure Tarshit never learns from their mistakes.
