Stupid Target

Target’s starting to get on my nerves. When I interviewed, I pretty much knew that I had the job for the girl told me that they were in need of cashiers, so it was no surprise to me when I received a call in the time that they told me they would and said that I had gotten the job. The girl, Tara, asked if I’d be able to come in on the next Tuesday at 10 am, but I told her I couldn’t for I have class at that time. “Ok…well that’s when we have orientation so I’ll have to call you back about that.” About a week had passed and I received no call, so I called Target and asked for Tara. “She’s gone on maternity leave,” the Target operator informed me. “Ok…” I said, not sure of what to do. “Well, I’m supposed to start orientation for a cashier position.” So she connected me to a new girl named Sarah and she informed me that they also had orientations on Friday, but she wouldn’t be working the next two Fridays but she’d try to have someone work with me. She said she’d call me back. Well, it had been a week and she hadn’t called, so I called them…again. She told me I could start the next week on Friday and I told her I’d prefer starting at 10 am, rather than at noon – the two times that they did orientation. Sarah said “sure” and said she’d call before then to tell me what I needed to know. Well, I’m starting tomorrow and they hadn’t called by today, so I called them….AGAIN! They’re having me come in at noon, instead of 10, which pisses me off. Orientation is 3 hours and I’m going back to Iowa when I’m done. I wanted to get done sooner than 3:00! Oh well…hopefully things will eventually get better.
