Guess What?

Even more training!

So I get to work on Wednesday and what do you know? Oh, I'm training 4 people from 6-9. Talk about lack of communication. So I had to plan my whole shift around training. The people I trained were so bored and I probably sounded like a retard. The training book it set up so stupid that it repeats itself over and over. And I'm not too familiar with it, so I just go along reading it, and then I realize it's something we already covered and I stop mid-sentence. I swear to God these people think I'm stupid. Oh well, they're stupid for working at Target. haha zinger!

And then today I worked 2:30-9 cashiering, but I had to buddy train a new cashier from 3-9. It's so bad, but I have a short patience with some situations. I probably don't sound like an asshole, but it seems that way sometimes. I also got to give Tara a break and that was fun because I didn't have anything challenging to do. A cashier didn't know how to do a tax exempt transaction, and another got a target card, so it was pretty easy.

I feel so bad for my readers because I'm sure you all *LOVE* to hear about my boring day. Hell, if there was more rude people more often, you'll be the first to hear about it. The weekend is almost here, and you all know what I say about the weekends: "The weekend bring out the worst in people."

Another thought that crossed my mind (they don't happen often, haha) is that I suddenly realized that guests will play any 'card' they have to get their way. And it's entirely true. I've heard some people get called racist just because we are enforcing the return policy. Another 'card' that gets played a lot in my store is the 'but I'm from Canada card'. Again, playing these 'cards' don't weigh on the situation AT ALL. They are just thrown in for sympathy, but sorry the system doesn't recognize sympathy. Here's 25 cents, call someone who cares.

Well, good news for me is that I don't cashier for a while. People should start getting REALLY bitchy right when holiday shopping starts. They are training like crazy in GS because it means less hours for me, but hey as long as they are all GS I really don't care.

The Black Friday ad leaked for Target on the Internet. Google it or something, it should pop up. A little tip for my readers, BUY THE ITEMS YOU WANT NOW! Then on the 26th or 27th go to Guest Service and get an adjustment. That way you get what you want at a cheaper price. You won't have to deal with worrying if something is out of stock. Buy now, adjust later. It's that easy. You didn't hear it from me. ;)

So, tomorrow it's 5-close GS and Saturday it's 3-close GS. God knows I love closing. This weekend will probably suck too because people will be out buying all their Thanksgiving crap. Well, I guess I better rest up for tomorrow. Fridays are notorious for difficult Canadian returns. Fun fun fun.
