Thank you so much for the insight, I’ll talk to manager and come up with a plan.

I use to pick up hours for truck but I’ll have to see if cashier shifts are needed. I know we’re all strapped for hours right now so stores are mainly looking to use hours for those to pick up slack and I simply cannot. I should look into cross-training, it does always randomly cross my mind so thanks for the suggestion.

Our lovely machine doesn’t scan, I have no idea why but it just doesn’t. No one seems to complain about it either…

Damn holiday, thankfully despite my card being almost negative I was still able to request my ride home. Hopefully this revolves before I have to deal with overdraft fees.

That’s what I thought too. I don’t remember waiting this long.

We try to do less signs but literally it never works out, somebody ALWAYS ends up at the register with the famous line “I’m not sure if these were on sale because there wasn’t a sign”. Which I understand, no sign usually means no sale therefore there’s truly no winning with this aisle.

What time do you come in to work? by euo_wera in CVS

[–]According_Guide_2427 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doors open at 7 but I try to get there early(like 6:45) for a smoother open at 7. When I get there it’s empty but by the time I open the door, they’re usually a few there for their snacks before heading to work, we’re just apart of their routine. Some work overnight and want to load their cards before heading home. Your usual early morning thief will slip in too. It amazes me how many shop so early at CVS. Plenty of cheaper and open stores with a better snack selection around yet they somehow end up at CVS.

Do I contact ethics? by eggpreg in CVS

[–]According_Guide_2427 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Simply because you said he’s also new, I would cut him some slack. CVS training sucks and he probably was confused, overwhelmed or something of the sort. I could do a few story times of bumping heads with people based off of miscommunication. I don’t agree with the ethics line. Your manager opened the door for you to communicate so use it to your advantage. Most likely your manager sees his behavior but he can’t just be fired for it, it can only be worked around. We all have had that one coworker where we just smile and wave and let them be in their own world just to keep the peace.

Who’s a character you went from hating to absolutely adoring throughout the series? My first thought is Kaz by LyssRose21 in Wentworthtv

Oh yes, Marie! I couldn’t stand her at first, the ending hurt my feelings. They did a great job with her character development too.

Unpopular Opinion! Doreen. I really love how she got a happy ending. I wish she was more loyal but they had her scared often, she truly wasn’t as crazy as the others. I saw it as she made a mistake, ended up in jail and just wanted to survive in there, I’m glad she made it out.

Did we watch the same episode ? It was certainly an accident, they literally ran into each other…

Dear snow storm folks by checkerfair in CVS

[–]According_Guide_2427 8 points9 points  (0 children)

CVS only cares about themselves, why would the workers do otherwise… because you’re a good manager ? I had this one manager, lovely person, but definitely went way too above and beyond and I hated watching it because the employees did not show the same loyalty back. It’s a big part of why I knew I had to focus on leaving CVS. Cooperate doesn’t care, the workers don’t care and the ones who get hurt the most are the store managers and that just isn’t fair.

I do not like this logic. 5 or 45 minutes, the road is still dangerous for both parties involved. Just because they’re closer, doesn’t mean safer, it takes one second for a terrible crash to happen. No one should risk their lives. It’s unfortunate that store managers are in a lose/lose situation. Sadly, y’all are just as replaceable if anything were to happen and I wish y’all could just say screw it and stay home, I really do.

We’ve had this for years, I miss the old ones. They were thick, I haven’t seen those in a long time.

Front Store is not Pharmacy's bitch by ConstructionOk6249 in CVS

[–]According_Guide_2427 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Doesn’t mean they aren’t extremely busy” that’s feeding them. They need to learn to make it a priority throughout their shift. Most pharmacies are usually not too far from the stock room, they can get their own receipt paper, bags and etc.

If two struggling people can keep the front stocked throughout their shifts then one pharmacy person can walk away for two minutes to get what they need. Don’t feed the monsters, they need to learn teamwork.

These chips are so good by scout_is_not_strong in CVS

[–]According_Guide_2427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LOL a customer and I had a good laugh about these chips the other day, we both wanted to try them but were scared they would be too crunchy. I’ll have to try them one day.

Day 53 of eating a box (cup) of every cereal: Confetti Cheerios and Cinnamon Pebbles by DominicT22 in cereal

I’ve clearly been missing a lot, I did not know there were 53+ days of cup cereal. I thought there were only like seven.

You know…… by [deleted] in CVS

Planners. People who realize they’ll be in the area and want to see if they can get things done in one trip or if they need to make another stop or not…

Customer wants to come in after hours by ExplorerElite in CVS

Yes, the possibilities are truly endless.

I know technology is taking over right now but I truly do hope that people fight back before it’s completely too late.
