I'm DONE with Target. My friend says it's bad because young people don't want to work. I disagreed, saying that they have zero management or leadership.
No one with any sense was observing or stepping in to teach or handle problems.
It's like Target doesn't give a shit.
Anyone would HATE that type of working environment.
@QueenPhillippa Walmart is much the same.
@TwiHusband Not true. I have the best time in our WalMart, but can't speak for others.
Especially when I need help finding something. Target is a Hell of its own.
@QueenPhillippa I work part time at Sprawlmart to supplement my retirement. It's VERY true.....as a matter of company policy.
@QueenPhillippa I can say this since a realization struck me during the pandemic, about capitalism and retailing.
Our current model of capitalism is based on the fallacy of limitless growth. especially growth in profits. The problem is that reality ALWAYS imposes limits, and sooner or later you hit them. Or they hit you.
Walmart is a case in point as far as retailers. The retail model is grow and keep growing. By cheap, sell with as much mark-up as the market will bear, and keep costs down.
@TwiHusband When I came home from overseas in the military I was instantly sick of the "growth for growth's sake" mentality that was everywhere, from small starting businesses to major corporations.
I knew it would cause a lot of mess and ultimate collapse because it NEVER MADE SENSE!
