Others shared their frustrations with working for Target and other stores that offer pick-up or otherwise offer similar services.

“Best decision I’ve ever made was leaving drive up to work overnights,” one user said.

“I did fulfillment for lowes and I was at target and heard the noise for a new order and had flashbacks,” a second added.

“And then most of them say they’re here without giving any warning,” a further user claimed. “Drive Up stresses me out!”
