I got hired at Target as they were opening a new store in Harmarville, PA. I was on the price accuracy team. I worked there for my 90 days thinking thank goodness because I had watched them fire random people. I was never late I did my job well and never called off within my 90 days. I loved my job! Well on my 90th day in the morning the price accuracy team leader position went up for an opening (the previous team leader found a better job) so I applied for that position and at the end of the day on my 90th day I get called into the office. So I am thinking it is to talk to me about the position. Well to my surprise I was told that " I was not a good fit and that target was looking for an image and I was not it"Then I come to find out that I was training a girl to replace me can you imagine. I begged to keep my job but it was a losing battle. I even filed with the Target corp. Head office and the reply I finally recieved was that Target was well within their rights as Pennsylvania is an at will state. Meaning if I would have not went to the office they could not have fired me for not being a good fit or not having the right look. They would have actually had to have a reason. I have 2 children and am a single mother. I was relying on that job to support my household. For sure I am no beauty Queen I am normal but to be told you don't have the right look, COME ON! Since then all of the people I know will no longer spend a dime in Target!!! I do have the paperwork from unemployment that states on there "I was not a good fit" and that being my reason for termination
