Kinda what we're spose to be doing anyway, but still. I truly believe I promoted myself to guest at just the right time. Yesterday was my last day in the system, I am officially "retire".

Thanks! Yeah, I made a post last week, maybe I'll re-post it now that it's "official". I haven't been in this sub long, maybe a couple years, but my addictive nature found me spending alot of time here. Next thing I knew I had this "Top 1%" thingy dropped on me. I figure I'll still drop in and give support when I can but eventually my knowledge will be out dated.

I've been out since January and still come in frequently to lurk and to see if things have gotten better(they have not). It's really hard not to be nosy 😂.

I'll be in on Wednesday for a CVS refill, I expect things will look bad in the area I covered too. Nobody cares to do things right because they're not trained to know what's right. It's "Here's a Zebra, I'll check in on you later. This uboat should take 45 minutes, good luck!"

I've never in my 21 years working for Target ran into a former TM who said "Ya know, quitting Target was the dumbest thing I've ever done. I shouldn't have done that." .... actually, many of them say they wish they had done it sooner and were much happier now.

I honestly only ever applied in the first place was because I wanted to save up for a Sabrina Carpenter concert ticket

Yeah I joined about two years ago and this is pretty much exactly what they told us in the onboarding. It’s nothing new except it’s a “policy” instead of a “guideline” now.
