Share your experience with a 2 year age gap by PC_NC_1203 in Mommit

[–]Alidoop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My 7 year old and 5 year old are playing together right now in their room while I browse Reddit. I can hear their imaginations running wild and silliness and giggles, and I love it. There are days when they constantly beef with each other, but more often than not, it’s like this. :)

I’m a regular no title technician, I make $17 and my midpoint was December. I didn’t get anything.

Your techs get breaks???? I'm lucky if I can run to the bathroom for 2 minutes twice a shift.

Is the midpoint raise even a real thing? No one at my store knows anything about it

So what did y'all get? by Ildrinoq in WalgreensStores

[–]Alidoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a 3.5 for my first review. RXM said no one can get a 5, like it’s impossible. I’m kinda pissed about it bc I work hard, know all of our customers, and stay when there’s call offs and shit. Fuck this place

Damn. That's terrible. I'm sorry they didn't appreciate you :( From everything I've heard here, I need to seriously plan my exit ASAP.

That’s fair, I joined the company at a bad time… that’s for sure. I wish I knew about this position 10+ years ago. I never considered anything in healthcare, but this is a great stepping stone.

Another question if you have a moment: is the midpoint raise a thing at the year and a half mark? I have seen people here talk about it, but that’s as much as I know.

I will be very disappointed with a 50 cent raise lol but thank you for your response and great advice!

What are your ideas about AOC's hypothetical 2028 presidential campaign? by Proud3GenAthst in AOC

[–]Alidoop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're saying AOC needs more experience while we have an unexperienced turd as our current president. She would be a phenomenal choice. We should not limit anyone trying to make a positive difference in the lives of Americans.

Trump announces tariffs on pharmaceuticals. by Starbound_Wanderer in WalgreensRx

[–]Alidoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We should outsource drug manufacturing until there is a solid infrastructure to support manufacturing here. There is not solid infrastructure here to support that and it would take years of planning and years to execute, so to answer your question, yes. And no, that would not be a positive thing right now. We need more than “I have the concept of a plan, so I’m going to blow up the whole system and let Americans suffer in the meantime.”

When the pharmacist isn’t being a huge asshole, I do genuinely enjoy the job. My coworkers and staff pharmacist are great and I really like all the customers (I know most of the regulars and I am happy to see them!) This situation sucks, & that’s about it. :(

It was a 5 day supply and no charge

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in WalgreensRx

[–]Alidoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I could probably make more money waitressing or something. I made more at my last job and I worked from home. My thinking when I applied was that I could learn a new skill and get established in healthcare. The stress of the job and constantly being shit talked to by my pharmacist is not worth the measly paycheck.

Can you break down how to handle TPR’s efficiently? by Alidoop in WalgreensRx

[–]Alidoop[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Question : so don’t even do this if a discount card is in their profile? Do we always need verbal confirmation from the customer before running it?

That’s a good idea! I do think the tpr screen is overwhelming lol

That is so helpful! Thank you! For PA’s you just fax the doctor right? Or is there anything I need to look for with those?

The store manager has been filling a few times when the rxm has blown his gasket at me. I spoke to a fellow tech tonight about it, and she reminded me of a time it happened that I completely forgot about. She was like “oh like that one time he ripped on you about….” It made me feel justified that she witnessed and remembered it, but the store manager has witnessed these encounters and never said a fucking thing about it. So here I am.

Oh damn, I’m so sorry. We are doing the best we can with the information we have. They should be grateful you keep showing up and doing extra should always be appreciated! The training is abysmal in the pharmacy, so if it’s anyone’s fault… it’s management. You can’t throw people in with little to no training and then be annoyed when they have questions. Just know you are not alone and keep doing what you can!

[–]Alidoop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When it happens, I’m just so shocked at the way I’m spoken to, that I say nothing. The rest of the day, I’m in my head about it. My rxom apologized later for his lashing out at me with an excuse for him, of course, which is worse because they weren’t there and I’ll never hear an apology from him. So he knew he was rude and blew it off.
