As soon as I heard about Target’s data breach, I thought to myself, “That spells trouble for the 玩偶姐姐.”  Sure enough, Beth Jacob resigned from Target as 玩偶姐姐 last week. Jacob was appointed to her position in 2008 after serving as Target’s Director of Guest Contact Centers and VP of Guest Operations. With Jacob’s departure, Target is looking outside the company for an interim 玩偶姐姐.
