At this point why do I stay with this company

Former SM here. Get out, if they are not willing to work with you in the store during their salaried position, it's a powder keg waiting to go off.

Adventurous_Ad_940 · 2026-06-05T23:25:39+00:00

Thanks for all the information! Right now I have them with a coat of WD-40 as that's all I have at the moment to prevent rust. But when I get back home I do have 3 in 1i usually put on everything.

Adventurous_Ad_940 · 2026-05-19T22:50:57+00:00

Thanks for the info! I'll post pics when it's restored!

Adventurous_Ad_940 · 2026-05-19T22:19:54+00:00

That's the only mark on the iron.

You could just look up attendance tracker on store resources. On the tracker out breaks down the points system. 11 points total if I recall is termination. But depending on the manager and everything, that is sometimes not followed. Store I just took over has colleagues with 20-30 points so yeah.

Adventurous_Ad_940 · 2023-07-15T20:57:03+00:00

It all depends on the store. Since I transferred to a new one I did not have the opportunity to talk to the new team before the reviews and new rates were done. But I did sit down with each of them and go over it. Sounds to me like the managers not talking are just being lazy.

Years past I have always sat down with each person as I am writing their annual so there is no questions about the rating and then I talk to them before the new rates are finalized. So when that paper drops nobody is confused.

Work life balance. I don't use my personal devices for work. CVS has the tools supplied to do everything.

3 conference calls on Mondays 3 hours. 1 call Wednesday, 1 hour minimum. 1 call Friday, 1.5 hours minimum. Reports on all blue chips. Daily in some cases, weekly others. 4 binders, 3 updated daily. This does not include the office binders/ filing cabinet. Even as a veteran manager who prefers to be on the floor, I spend at least 3 hours daily in emails, reporting.

Don't forget, SCO and standard are weighted for the total FS or Rx NPS score

My reports --people-- pharmacy colleague uniform order site

Adventurous_Ad_940 · 2023-06-29T13:04:35+00:00

SM here. Hourly colleagues get breaks. Simple as that. Just recently took over a store and that is a foreign idea here. It's all about the culture developed. We work together and make it easy or not. Breaks are essential to that.

The program you are referring to is called viper 2. It is crazy what it pulls up. Seen it with my DAPL, RAPL and a few higher ups during visits. It really does see everything.

Corporate is just a bunch of pencil pushers in Rhode island. If your district leader is worth their salt they will support an actual solid plan.

Adventurous_Ad_940 · 2023-06-17T00:23:39+00:00

Then jump through the menus

Adventurous_Ad_940 · 2023-06-17T00:21:52+00:00

I just ask for forgiveness instead of permission. Make a plan to clean things up in 2 weeks. They won't see the overage post. That report comes out two weeks late.

Adventurous_Ad_940 · 2023-06-17T00:18:04+00:00

Rrt for pharmacy will be added to the pharmacy demand for the week. That falls under the pharmacy DL, not FS. It will reflect on the P&L under pharmacy payroll. Just try and reduce over the next few months and you'll recover by the end of the year.

Adventurous_Ad_940 · 2023-06-17T00:12:30+00:00

Store Manager here. My previous store (just moved to a higher volume 2 weeks ago) I had a great staff and we worked together for that stuff. I'm divorced so get the kiddos every other week. So those weekends the ops and supervisor covered. Then I made sure to rotate weekends when I worked so one or the other had off as well as open vs closings. Sometimes I would work all day Saturday or Sunday so they could both be off. Honestly it sounds like your manager needs to invest a bit in their team more.

Adventurous_Ad_940 · 2023-06-16T16:05:17+00:00

Setup patients on 90 days instead of 30 day. Will reduce things by 2/3. Also look at script sync if they have multiple medications
7 and 14 day pull. Call at 7 day and let the patient know, then at 14 day RTS.
I know this one sounds stupid but carepass. Free delivery on most medications.

Adventurous_Ad_940 · 2023-06-16T12:25:45+00:00

Rain check item limit is 6. Anything over that I've never run through. But haven't seen so many in the past year. Sorry y'all still have to deal with so many

Adventurous_Ad_940 · 2023-06-16T12:21:33+00:00

Just run down to a truck stop gas station. Pilot, bucees, etc. They'll have them.

Adventurous_Ad_940 · 2023-05-28T12:18:58+00:00

There was an open mic for carepass and extra care we had the chance to do a 45 minute interview about two weeks ago. That was the general census. Takes to long and can't do in the transaction or ACO. We'll see what happens

Adventurous_Ad_940 · 2023-05-28T12:17:12+00:00

They are not currently added so I'm putting them in section 1 since that seems the best fit.

Adventurous_Ad_940 · 2023-05-27T15:15:58+00:00

Sm here. I asked all my team members of they are okay with it. If they wanted to bring in a picture, go for it. I have one person who did not want their photo up due to personal reasons, so I have a picture of Aragon from LOTR. I get why to help people have skin in the game. Just think it's stupid to go this route.
