I agree with you. They shot themselves in the foot. Why else would they be trying to correct it by adding a 3rd bathroom. That ought to be a shitte show!

I took a look inside a Target store a month or so ago. Pretty quiet compared to a year ago.

“...CEO Brian Cornell had promised to roll out family restrooms earlier this year and defended the companys stance on diversity...”
Yeah, you go on and keep defending that stance, Bri-Bri... while your company goes bankrupt.
Take that stand!!! Make a Difference!!!

I take it that expletives are now allowed on FR. I’m seeing it everyday now.

The private bathrooms will be nothing but a continuing symbol of their love of the gay community. A reminder never to shop there again.

I recently went to my local Target to return something. While in Target, I asked a male employee if they had any more of the coffee on sale in the stockroom (at an unbelievable price), because the shelf was empty. He grumbled something unintelligible but nasty (from the tone of his voice) and went back to putting cans on a shelf. Wow. Another employee went out of his way to help me. He didn't find the coffee, so he recommended I go to Customer Service and get a raincheck, which I did. The young man behind the counter was fooling with his cell phone and didn't even see me walk up at first. Then while listening to me explain I wanted a rain check for the coffee, he was STILL looking down at his phone. I let him have it about a time and place to fool with his phone, and that while talking to me WASN'T the time. He reluctantly put it away to print out my raincheck. I have never had that sort of experience before at Target. I guess their ill fortunes have prompted them to lower their standards in hiring new personnel. If it were up to me, these 2 winners would be EX-personnel.
As for their restrooms, I personally have never had any weirdo-in-the-bathroom problem---yet. In the event that it should happen, I would drop kick the weirdo across the room. I do not hold with people "confused about their gender" nonsense. If you are confused, just look down.

Have you ever been assaulted by the homo class? They lock the men’s room door and have at you. You or your son, may fight for your life, but you’ll never be the same. Obama knows, believe me.

Target is dying before our eyes. Who’d have thought that Target would be the next Sears or JCPenney. That’s what terrible management decisions do to an otherwise viable company. I for one haven’t been back and won’t go back.

She added the customer discontent hadnt had a material impact on sales. Of course not. That is why you are going to the expense of putting new bathrooms in every store.

Yep.

Why, they are in the process of going out of business just like K-Mart. They have cancelled their sponsorship of Ganassi Racing, which is a big deal!

First of all, if I were a stockholder, I would be ticked off that this CEO is wasting $20 million of what should be stockholder earnings in an attempt to quell the revolt of Target’s customers.
That being said, if we were still shopping at Target, I would be boycotting them due to their outrageous rest room decision. However, we cannot boycott Target because over one year ago, as I was sitting down in my favorite chair watching TV and in the process of eating an ice cream cone purchased at our local Target, I noticed that the ice cream did not look right and tasted “funny”. I pulled the packaging box out, looked at the date only to discover that the expiration date was one year ago.
My wife wrote to Target customer service advising of our experience and dissatisfaction. Guess what? She never got a reply. That was the end of Target for us.

They’re avoiding that question.
