Target — Local services in Topsham

I shop at the target in Topsham on a regular basis. I can't blame Target for what happened today but I do blame a cashier/Mary. There were 10 open checkout stations and there are five self-pay stations. One of the self- pay stations is for customers who have fewer items. I had ONE item. I chose that self check-out and it just so happened that Mary was just opening the register and I was the first customer. Mary said that register wasn't opened yet and it would take a few minutes. I said, that's OK, I'll wait. Mary would NOT allow me to use the register. She claimed that she didn't know where I was in line and that she would call people from out of the line herself. She basically blocked the register unless she felt that you were the one SHE wanted to use it. I got back into the LONG line. I had lost my original position in line, so I had to go to the BACK AGAIN. Less than two minutes later, Mary began chosing people whom she deemed worthy, tonuse HER self check-out. After having pulled two people, I noticed the line begin to grow as others walked up without her permission and she didn't stop anyone else but me from using the self check-out. She was simply throwing her weight around and she discriminated against me. This is wrong!! She doesn't have the right to say who can and cannot use a self check-out. I will be persuing discrimination charges. She can not tell people that they aren't allowed to use a register and turn around and allow others to use it. That is the definition of discrimination and I hope Target does something about it. I will be in touch with corporate or a lawyer. I was sick, I had one thing, medicine and she treated me unfairly because she wanted to. I was embarrassed and humiliated. She was loud enough about it and blocking the register in such a way, that another customer was scared to step forward to get a Starbucks coffee and felt the need to explain to Mary, that she wasn't trying to stand in line. She just wanted a...

I would just like to say that I have been shopping at this target for many years and I have never felt so disrespected in my life like the time I had today trying to Use the customer service desk with Steve and he would not stop taunting me! His rude jokes, demeaning comments, and offputting behavior have no place in target! I explained to him as an employee of target I understand that he wants to talk with customers, but if he wants to do that, then he needs to be kind and if he doesn’t have anything nice to say, just do his job and not try to harass people! Steve is the worst employee I’ve ever met at target and the only one who has ever treated me this way. Every other staff member has been absolutely kind empathetic understanding and eager to help. I’m very unsure as to why Steve to be so unkind but I hope that they either get rid of him or get him some help so that no other customers need to go through what...

This store is ridiculous. My younger brothers friends were messing around and knocked things off the shelf. Obviously they shouldn't do this but they are kids. They did no real harm. The manager flipped out and kicked them out. Later, my brother went there and met up with these kids. Again they did no real harm. Nothing illegal and yet the manager freaked out and kicked them all out and banned them for a year. Even by association my brother shouldn't be banned nor should those who were causing trouble. They should've been given a warning. My brothers mom wasn't even notified of the ban. She had no clue until he said something. This is incredibly unprofessional. In addition to this incident the store is generally run poorly. The bathrooms are never fully stocked and isles are trashed. I belive target as a whole is a good store but this store lacks the proper management to be...
