    So who does control the merch? Does he really think it's the minimum wage workers?

      She's responsible for security procedures and when to shoot black people suspected of shoplifting in the back, something any hog could get behind.

        For those who don't know Target does have an actual cop technology division that comes up with innovative new ways to put people in prison for stealing like candles or some shit. They're also the money behind a couple of big city programs to harass homeless people until they flee downtown.

      I worked at Target for a while and they called managers Executive Team Leaders so odds are she's just a manager at a store and not an actual executive of the Target corporation

        Would make sense some chud came up to her face and threatened her. Also explains the odd "you threaten her you threaten me" behaviour being more of a physical real life thing.

      Not all executives control the merch. She could be Target's Head of HR or something like that.

      There's a group within the business typically referred to as "Buyers" (although I'm sure they've got a fancier name) whose jobs revolve around negotiating the acquisition of products for the storefront. Sometimes they operate at a very high level (Target negotiating a deal with Martha Stewart to carry a particular line of clothing or household goods) and sometimes they're local (the local storefront negotiating a deal with a produce wholesaler to stock the grocery section with eggs).

      If people are melting down over Target carrying Bud Light, then they're probably mad at some senior executive way outside their reach.

      But if they're just furious because of the rainbow colored kitche in the discount bin, I suppose that could be a local manager's fault.
