"Obviously it's the checkout supervisor's fault, they're too expensive. Minimum wage for 8 hours with 4 hours unpaid overtime?! How do you expect a corporation to lose that much money to their employees and still fulfill their responsibilities of producing record revenue for their shareholders. Obviously the answer is to let go of the checkout supervisor's at our stores and contract out one checkout supervisor to five stores and have them rotate between them in their own vehicle. It's not like they really do anything anyway, they're just their to make the consumer feel better."

Said a CEO to his board.

First time I've seen my little corner of the world mentioned here. The Hixson Target is still wayy better than the Gunbarrel one. I'm convinced that Target is single-handedly keeping the company afloat.

Target fucking depresses the living shit out of me. The only reason I ever go is that I'm a school bus driver and for some reason half of the tips I get at Christmas and the end of the school year (why the fuck do people tip school bus drivers? I have no idea) are Target gift cards. It always has Kmart-at-the-end vibes with half-empty shelves and employees that look like they want to kill you. And I don't understand how they can maintain a grocery section at all - the selection is poor and everything costs twice as much as it does at normal grocery stores.

For some unknown reason, the stores all seem to have been inadequately constructed. The floor shakes at every multi-story Target I've ever been in.
