Target marketing division was supposed to look deeply into the universe to organize its plans but instead they all bent over and put their heads between their legs......looking up all they could see was Uranus.

Could be a case of go-woke-go-broke.

haven’t set foot in a Target since they went woke, which is at least ten years. Target FU&FO. Get woke, go broke.

Same here. We were regular Target shoppers until they decided to let "men" into the girls' restrooms. Never went back. Switched to Walmart.

My local mall will be demolished at the end of May. JC Penney and all the local small businesses will go away. The replacement will be an outdoor mall with a Target. The nearest Target right now is in Idaho Falls. It's a 54 mile drive one way. I go to IF about once a week, but never have a reason to go to Target. The Walmart and Fred Meyer stores have covered my needs for 25 years. We also have a Costco and Winco, so Target is going to have to compete hard for local business. Sportsmanswarehouse and Dick's have the recreation market covered.

Read again. This story is about EMPLOYEE complaints about the company going woke. Target did not respond to DailyMail’s request for comment on the employee predictions and complaints.

I was in a Target two years ago (wife wanted something she said only they had), and upon entering the store, a woman clerk left her register to complain that my mobility scooter headlamp (which often gets accidentally switched on taking it in and out of the trunk) was too bright and was going to give her a seizure. I told her I wasn’t even aware it was on and switched it off right away, and she huffed and went back to her station. I wrote to management promising never to return (I haven’t), and have no sympathy for entitled Karen employees like that.

If they didn’t want financial troubles, they shouldn’t have gone down the woke road.

Our city has 2 Super Walmarts.
Construction has begun on aTarget store.
Closest Target I had to avoid was 14miles away.
Thank you Target for making it more convenient for me to avoid your stores.

I thought that was what happened, but wasn’t sure. I just knew I had resolved never to set foot in their stores again, and I used to go there once or twice a month.

I think the big wigs for so many of these corporations were trying to impress the WEF crowd in Gastaad. I mean - getting invited to a WEF party is worth trashing your company - right?

I quit going to Target when the last time I found a DVD set of old Randolph Scott 1950s westerns. They refused to sell them to me till I proved I was over 18 years of age as they were considered “UNRATED” the same as porn today. I was 68 years old.

Has Target fired the person who was instrumental in their going woke? If they want to recover some of their lost customer base, obviously that should be their first step.
