Known as a safe-haven for soccer-moms. Target is a company that loves to open up right across from Wal-Mart and attempt to undercut Wal-Mart's low-prices by selling high-class products that don't fall apart after their first use.

A store designed by a group of idiots who are apparently infatuated with the color red & live by the motto "Fast, Fun, & Friendly".
Employees don't know each other's names unless they read nametags, yet they are considered to be "Team Members".
Turning 18 means nothing to Target if you're still in high school- except that now you are eligible to get a Goddamn motherfucking Red Card & save an additional fucking 10%. No, you can't work more hours during the week. Minors may NOT exceed 3 hours & 45 minutes Monday-Friday or else one of the LOD's, or HR, will have a talk with you about legalities. (you're supposed to care)
GSTL's make people feel smart since they are by far the dumbest people in the world.
People in food are disgusting
LOD's get to talk at the morning, midday, & evening huddles. This makes them important.
The boys in electronics think they are studly & whoever has the keys to the X-Box games is really cool.
The operator is always a half-wit broad who doodles her boyfriend's name in between phone calls.
Guest Attendants.. (AKA CART BOYS) are stoners who just need some fresh air & free water.
AP/Hardlines 4 is a group of men who are either rent-a-cops, wannabe po-po's, or ex-security guards from some unknown company. Sometimes if you get lucky, you'll get an AP team leader (yup, leader, it's religious) who used to be in the army. Apparently shooting towel heads is comparable to catching people steal Modern Home towels?
Target team members need to understand that breaks are 15 minutes, NOT 16 & lunch breaks are 45 minutes, not 44. Another legality.(pretend to care)
Employees are not allowed to call in sick without being talked about.
EMPLOYEES ARE STRICTLY FORBIDDEN TO DRINK WATER OR ANY OTHER BEVERAGE ON THE JOB UNLESS THEY HAVE A DOCTOR'S NOTE.
Customers are referred to as "Guests" & are the rudest people in the world. They leave their carts everywhere in the store & will whine until Guest Service calls every local Target in search of their Mossimo sweater.
THE ACTORS IN THE TARGET COMMERCIALS WILL BE GETTING PAID MORE THAN YOU DO FOR JUST SPINNING AROUND IN CIRCLES WITH AN UGLY DOG NAMED SPOT.. WHILE YOU MUST MEMORIZE CODE RED, GREEN, YELLOW. HOW'S YOUR SISTER L.I.S.A? HOW IS B.O.B DOING?
If you work at Target you are brainwashed to believe you are above Wal Mart & if you go within 1 mile of a Wal Mart you eye should start twitching. If it doesn't then you need to spend some more time reviewing the employee handbook.

My back hurts, my head is throbbing, my feet are numb, and I want to know if anyone needs a carryout or help fidning something. I've obviously been working at Target too long.

A more upscale version of Walmart. Thoroughly evil, it is run by people who are absolutely obsessed with getting more and more people to sign up for the Target VISA.

Overprice cheap goods superstore, food court always smell funny, Guest Experience Team Executive is a cussin' sailor that loves to threaten employees, smokin' half of his work period, and bitchin' out all employee that actual work, HR does not accept you are quitting without a fight, but will not let you finish training. At least a dozen new team members every two weeks. Management that love breaking all OSHA and labor laws possible.

A simple corner store that evolved into a giant corrupt company. With thousands of stores across the USA and its low pricing and selling techniques it already runs opposing businesses to the ground but Target also manufactures its products in China using its cheap labor to gain profit and forcing other companies to be unable to compete with the low prices due to cheap labor in China. Once companies who manufacture in America cannot compete and go bankrupt becuase of Target the Target builds ontop of it therefor further monopolizing America. Ran by conservative christians who believe they are doing the right thing but when you really look at it they are using cheap labor with its cruel workplaces and terrible conditions and monopolizing America with thousands of stores running other businesses to the ground. If these are "Christian" morals and beliefs America is in deep shit.
Target holds cult-type rallies in giant stadiums full of supporters and executives who chant for Target and its owners in such ways as North Korea celebrates their brave leader Kim Jong Il.

Target is basically like walmart only its slightly upscale. They have stupid names for employees such as team members, lods, tlods, gstls, tps and ap. What the fuck is up with that. At most jobs these people are called employees, managers, assistant managers and security guards. This is just plain stupid. Red and khaki are probably the worst colors to wear. And whats with the tucking in of the shirts. Damn I hate tucking in my shirtT. Thanks ROB. And its only the guys that have to do it. I think its because target is sexist or something. Another thing with names is that we have to call our customers guests. What the fuck they are not staying here like in a hotel. Zoning is probably the most useless thing I have ever done. As soon as i zone an aisle some little kid comes by and fucks it up. Damn. I hate the fucking 90 day return policy it sux. And most of the LODs and TLODs are jackasses. Not all of them, but most. Target does suck.
Team member: "Jeff can I go on my break?"
Jeff: "How many red cards have you gotten today?"
Team member: "None."
Jeff: "Well didn't I give you the Mr. Potatoe Head doll?"
Team member: "Yes. But I blew it up."
Jeff: "How could you it was my love?"
Team member: "Why don't you go get it, you no side burn, unibrow, freak."
Jeff: "Hey thats not nice."
Team member: "Fuck you. COHEED RULES."
