TwixVoy (1000+ posts) Tue Jul-28-09 03:24 PMOriginal message VIDEO: Target mandatory anti-union training Many here may remember my posts from back when I worked at Target about the new anti-union training they are forcing ALL stores employees to watch. Someone has managed to get a hold of (ONE) of the videos Target has been forcing people to watch. Here is a link to it:http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9tguu_target -..Act quickly because Target lawyers have been shutting down any web site that posts this video VERY quickly.Think about this next time you go to Target and skip your local wal-mart. They are one in the same, Target just hides it better.Keep in mind there are other videos. This is actually the MILD one. There is another one, AND a special one for management.I love all the money dropping down effects and scary background music. And I can tell you as a former "leader" (supervisor) at Target the open door policy is a joke. Anyone naive enough to actually walk in to a managers office and voice a complaint is quickly labeled a trouble maker and shown the door.And the "cross training" to get more hours? Guess what that means. You get hired as a cashier, for example. Then you get trained in a high pay grade position and are expected to do that jobs work WITH OUT THE HIGHER PAY.

All the team members who watched this seemed to have no prior education on unions WHAT-SO-EVER and they took this as the ONLY source of information, and made up their minds accordingly.

I wonder if the twixbar is the one who absconded with said tape? If so, I'm sure the Target lawyers would REALLY like to see this thread!
I called Target Corporate in MN, they didn't seem too worried about it.
A company has the right to present their point of view. I'm certain that if there are anyone trying to organize Target, they are sending everyone truckloads of union propaganda. Target should be able to counter with propaganda of its own.

The DUmmy claimed to have quit as a moral decision, without having even looked for another job.
Hmmmmmmm. After the DUmmie twixtwat said they were scrubbing the videos as they appear, I wouldn't be so sure. I know the Home depott would certainly go after 'em. You sign a waver when you are employed, and another when you leave.
People who vote for unions are just voting for another taxing authority to reach into their pockets and steal a portion of their paychecks before they can even think of spending it frivolously.
