It’s not good for customers either. The skeleton staff is never around to answer questions or help find items in the store.

“”I got that dollar raise but I’m getting $200 less in my paycheck,” a Target employee named Heather told CNN. Heather’s hours have been cut from about 40 per week to around 20, she explained.”

LOL!!!!

I love when math triumphs over stupidity.

Just yesterday I was talking with a target employee who I know through business dealings. She needs a hip replacement and Hass to wait until Obamacare sign-up in January, then wait another 60 days for whatever reason. I asked her if she had insurance through target and she went off! She was complaining about how her hours have been so jumbled up that target has effectively canceled her Insurance coverage. She said full-time is considered like 34 hours. They schedule her for 33.75 hours every week.

Nicely done again tarjay! Not only do they allow pervs in the restrooms and dressing area, they can now also virtue signal over “paying” their employees $15 per hour!

$15/hour wait staff still expect 20% tips.

Well, grab a tent and pick a street. It’s the new American dream.

I thought ObamaCare required coverage for people working over 29 hours per week.

Two years later, the story is pretty different. "I got that dollar raise but I'm getting $200 less in my paycheck," a Target employee named Heather told CNN. Heather's hours have been cut from about 40

Oh, geez. You axed for it, you got it.

Thank God I sold my Target stock two years ago. This company is the next Sears Roebuck.
