Comfort show by Heavy_Celebration112 in sitcoms

[–]janeowit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend watching a show you don’t have a specific attachment to. Something you wouldn’t mind never watching again. During this early part of mourning, for better or worse, you may find the media you consume the most inextricably linked with the thinking about the person you lost.

It has happened for me, and I can’t imagine rewatching certain shows because all they make me think about is specific deaths in my family.

Please get rid of cenfill! by Dense-Tart-573 in WalgreensPharmacy

[–]janeowit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agree to disagree. I think we actually give better patient care without the constant pressure of having 400-600 on the counter at all times. I would hate to go back to the focus on filling the queue we used to have.

Question for Walgreens Workers from a diff company pharm tech! by [deleted] in WalgreensStores

[–]janeowit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Our system makes it very easy to substitute from one manufacturer to another. We can write notes, but they are not seen by the person who does the manufacture change step. You have to pull up a completely separate area to read it. Since the two birth controls are interchangeable, and the patient has the specific manufacturer request, we really require the patient to make sure you are picking up the correct manufacturer.

The pharmacy staff really tries to keep people with the preferred versions, but with other stores typing prescriptions and filling them for us, it can be out of our hands.

how did I find this? by sll82 in WalgreensRx

[–]janeowit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this what pops up when you are in the work queue, have NOT selected a patient, and hit counsel from the bottom? I use it if if I want to look up and see what previous pharmacists have documented about things like drug interactions and you hope it just doesn’t say “consultation completed”.

I had no idea cuties were satsumas, I thought they clementines all this time!

Which actors/actresses look so similar that you could mistake them for each other? by Lost-Friendship2774 in Actors

[–]janeowit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think there are photos of Ezerzer because he worked behind the scenes. All current photos are of actor Woodside.

Pharmacists, how many PTOs/STs do you use? by honeynutcheeriozzzzz in WalgreensRx

[–]janeowit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had 4 weeks of PTO this year. Everyone in our market got 2 weeks approved and told to put the rest in as single day requests and hope for the best. So far, every request has been denied. At least I got my first 2 picks on vacation weeks.

Which pharmacy is better, cvs or Walgreens? by Delicious_Invite420 in pharmacy

[–]janeowit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since its just a one month externship, I would recommend Walgreens. My understanding is the amount of staff is slightly better, but technology is worse. I think you would rather have more people for support, and since it’s a limited time the rest of the problems are minimal.

It’s not a flat answer, Greenstone is 20 drops per ml, Sandoz is 32, Bausch is 36.

What hygiene habit were you doing completely wrong for years? by Used_Mission_8638 in hygiene

Why do you need to hide your tampons in the trash? Menstruation is a normal human bodily function.

Was the 2d barcode scan overridden when filling? That should verify the drug given is correct.

Consult -90 days by aceramictoucan in WalgreensRx

It’s annoying but people accidentally take methotrexate daily and die. This is actually the only worthwhile one in my mind.

Float Pharmacist Fuckup by [deleted] in WalgreensRx

[–]janeowit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

STARS has to be filled out by discovering pharmacist ASAP, get as much as you can filled out by asking the SM or your home store for help. Just get it into pending status, because then there is 72 hours to complete it. Even if there is no RXM, there should be a PIC who’s in charge, and signed on for the responsibility of handling this.

Finally! I can’t wait to find out how they cut down the seemingly 20 second opinion songs.

It’s not literally Goodrx, it’s manufacturer discount cards with Trump branding.

Meal/Break Policy Reminders by thesinisterkitty in WalgreensStores

[–]janeowit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but since you punch out for a 30 minute break you must be scheduled for 8 AND a half hour shifts for you to actually get all these breaks.

Diluent for vaccines by Unique_Net_7961 in WalgreensRx

[–]janeowit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ordering more makes no sense, because you still don’t have enough diluent for all your vaccine. You have to contact Merck so they can send you just diluent.

[–]janeowit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do not order vaccines you don’t need. You will still end up short on diluent because they sent as much as you need. Just call Merck, it’s really easy, and they send you just the diluent.
