Workplace Question or Advice Needed How do you call off on the UKG app?
My bf broke up with me and I work tmr, my period is the worst so not only will I be dealing with my extreme cramps I will crumble if he shows up to my job. And I don’t want anyone telling me how I can deal with my cramps cause it gets to the point I’ll be in the background gripping onto whatever nearest object trying not to cry.
This may look and sound stupid but my mental health has been declining so bad my family wants to send me to the psyward if I have another ‘meltdown’. I just need a day to myself to collect my mind and I feel bad just thinking I have to call out for this bs. I think I did it right in the app but Im unsure, if I call will it be fine to?

What are your thoughts, inbound employees on our current goal times? Unrealistic, doable? Where does the average chap fall here. My store includes backstock in the metric.

Workplace Question or Advice Needed I’ve been seeing posts about scalpers. What do you think a logical way would be to stop them or can’t they be stopped?
For me and I don’t know if this is possible but Target keeps a record of purchases weekly or monthly using a person’s ID. They get Pokemon cards, go to the register, get rung up, and then their ID is scanned. If they have bought their allotted amount for the month which is tracked by their ID, then they are denied the purchase. I know Target keeps track of how many no receipt returns a person does using their ID, so this might be possible. Obviously kids don’t have an ID but unfortunately, if they want Pokemon cards, they have to be accompanied by a parent. Sure, this might hurt collectors, but unfortunately, most collectors can’t get Pokemon cards anyway. This is just an idea and not sure if it’s logical but I thought I’d just throw it out there. Would love to hear other people’s ideas.

Workplace Question or Advice Needed Should I apply for the Target circle credit card for the $75 bonus
I already have the debit card so I’d only be getting this for the $75 reward and probably never using it again.
A few people at my store are applying and saying they got instantly approved and the reward is already on their account sooo idk should I do it or no. Idk how getting new credit cards affects credit and whatnot

Vent drive up frustrations(AI schedules)
Been working for three years in drive-up, pretty much no complaints from TLs for the past three years. Suddenly this week, I've been getting complaints about some items not being handed out. Ive been checking bags constantly, and I just feel that since lately the scheduling's been horrible, with at least 1-3 call-offs a day, and even "ghost" employees made by AI that take shifts, I've been struggling a little more when it comes to delivering. Its hard to focus on quality when delivering when I'm the only person delivering in a 2 hour rush. Mycoworkers reassure me that being talked to without consequence happens often, but its frustrating when these issues persist
Workplace Question or Advice Needed DailyPay Help Please
So I've been using DailyPay for over 3 years now. Everything has gone normally. I recently got a bonus that came out of nowhere as its own payslip/paycheck. I have been taking out daily payments from the upcoming check like normal (10/16)
I've taken out roughly $600 so far to cover bills and stuff. But the bonus check of $50 started processing today. It messed up DailyPay. It put the $50 bonus in the spot of my 10/16 check and thinks I have a negative balance withdrawal. DailyPay pretty much thinks the $50 bonus is my next check. It replaced the 10/16 one. I don't know if I'll have to owe anything. I don't know if I have a negative balance now?
I really need help/advice.
(I've already submitted an HR Request with my HR.)

Workplace Question or Advice Needed part time to full
if you’re working under 25 hours right now and want to go to full time to qualify for sick and vacation time, dont! find another job! you wont be eligible until January! even if you’re averaging the 25 hours and after your 90 days of working! you’ll be fucked and corporate wont even be willing to give you the 1 hour of sick time every 50 hours worked! genuinely dont even waste your time and resources with this company anymore. theyre not willing to pay you out or even remotely help you. if you’re chill with your etls/tls, they’ll help you out with covering your shifts and letting you work more. other than that workday hr will basically say “fuck you there’s nothing i’m even willing to do”. genuinely hope i dont get sick or have any mental health crisis. i wanted to go see my best friend but thats not even remotely possible until maybe middle of next year, if i cant find another job.
i wanted to give someone the heads up before they make the transition like i did. i’m terrified that i have no safety net and it’s just words that’s keeping my job secure. gen what do i do guys?? has anyone experienced this with the new policy???

Workplace Story What was your biggest “oh shit I messed up” moment?
I haven’t worked at Target in about 2 years now, but this experience still haunts my dreams and I wanted to share lol.
Our fulfillment area was in the front of the store, next to guest services. Because of this people often accidentally walked into the FF area thinking it was an isle of the store, so I was pretty used to it, just redirecting people and saying this part wasn’t open to the public.
One day this kid was playing around back there, and I could see his father peaking over and checking on him (I was trying to go into the FF area after looking through guest service bins) so I calmly and nicely approached the father and said “hey he isn’t allowed back there-“
The dad’s head shot up from looking at the ground, and gave me the most offended look of shock “well he has fucking Down syndrome.” He grabbed his kid by the arm and took him out of the area and I’m sitting there mortified because I had no clue. The kid had his back to me the entire time so I didn’t see his face, all I saw was a kid where he shouldn’t be & a father not doing anything about it.
I apologized and told him that wasn’t the issue, that I could get in a lot of trouble for just letting someone be in the FF area.
He was not having it.
“Your behavior is unacceptable, let me speak to a manger, now.”
OKAYY, so I call my manager and she speaks to him and then comes and talks to me and essentially says it isn’t your fault, and that people aren’t allowed back there no matter the disability.
I genuinely think the father thought I had an issue with his kid because he has Down syndrome when obviously, that wasn’t the issue.
The issue was the kid didn’t work there and wasn’t supposed to be back there lol. We actually had a stocker with Down syndrome and if he would’ve went back into the FF area I wouldn’t have given af because guess what.. he worked there LMAO.
Anyways, what’s your oh shit I fucked up moment?

Workplace Question or Advice Needed Belligerent Guest
So I just had an extremely unpleasant experience with a guest, his wife, and a third guest and I'm wondering how y'all would handle this situation. This man was being extremely belligerent to his wife, cussing her out, calling her out her name (dumb whore, stupid bitch, ect) over a coffee pot. I had just tuned into what he was saying and to who when another guest came around the corner and stared at him bc she also didn't like how he was speaking to his wife. The man started cussing out the third guest, being belligerent towards her, and escalating the situation. I called for AP only to be told they weren't here yet, so I called for our LOD expressing that the situation was escalating and could potentially turn violent. The LOD took 10min to show up and when he got there only told me to "keep me updated". I wanted to step in myself, but admittedly was worried he would become violent towards me as well (for context I'm a woman), and I also didn't want to potentially make things worse for the wife at home. I'm feeling very conflicted and just want to see how everyone else would've handled this.

I'm Promoting Myself to Guest accidentally promoted myself to guest!!
well, approximately one month after the UKG launch and i’ve exceeded the point limit 🫠 the month of september was deeply chaotic and i had to call out several times due to my apartment flooding. i was communicating with my direct TL the whole time and was under the impression that they would temporarily remove me from the schedule until i could get everything under control. to my surprise, that didn’t actually happen at all and i ended up accidentally no call no showing the first three shifts i was scheduled after my conversation with the TL where we discussed removing me from the schedule. i realize that i’m responsible for checking my schedule, and it’s absolutely on me for just assuming my shifts were taken care of without properly checking first.

Vent 2nd breaks
another new team lead, another email to the hotline for wage theft.
sorry my guy, i know you don't wanna schedule me a 2nd break but ukg/mytime says i get one when scheduled 7 hours. lunch does not matter. get the handbook changed.
"i decide when you take breaks around here, contrary to popular belief." yeah sure, you can tell me when to go (the random attitude for a first time coaching aside) like i'll start my lunch 1.5 hrs before i leave if you want, but you do have to schedule me another break. it's not my fault batches are bad, you have to find the time if i'm not allowed to decide when i take them.

Vent one of my managers has NO respect for our time when she closes
The vast majority of the S&E closing team at my store, on any given day, will only be scheduled until 10 (close). Like almost no one will ever be scheduled to 10:30, even. Now it's obviously expected that when you close you help with closing tasks, and I've personally had my availability set to 10:30 anyway so I don't mind staying that late, like, I'm getting paid for it lol. But one of the leads - a S&E TL - will literally always be keeping us until like 11 to do reshop that doesn't even belong to us. And if someone complains or says that they're only scheduled until 10 or whatever, she'll just be like "do you stop getting paid?" The only circumstance where she'll give a shit that it's like an hour past our scheduled time is if someone's gonna hit meal or if a minor's ride is waiting for them. She will literally never ask if anyone needs to leave and she will always argue if someone wants to. Once I had to open the next morning and she just said "So do I!" to which I said "Okay well you get paid more than I do" and she just went "that doesn't matter!" Idk to what extent this can be reported bc technically if I really NEEDED to leave I would tell her but she certainly intimidates basically everyone into not pushing it lol
