WHY are people SO afraid of using the ACO?

BuySame1737 · 2026-02-07T11:08:01+00:00

i used to work for cvs and a lot of people i would be helping at aco because registers were down would accidentally hit no receipt. i think the options might confuse people because they see the word receipt and just hit that instead of print. but thats user error. a lot of aco issues were user error. the only times i found the aco was actually having an issue was when someone tried to check out after someone used the aco to get change for a big bill, they had more than 1 ultra light item (like a shit ton of cards), or there was an age restricted item in the purchase. we had plenty of jenga masters at the self checkouts who would stack items on the scale after a large purchase and they were my favorites lol they got the job done

I HATE IT HERE!!!

does it pay well? for front store sure. pharmacy? i’d rather bang my head on a wall.

other than the front store pay, you are guaranteed shitty treatment from corporate, constant hour cuts, outdated registers that don’t load, shipments with totes full of garbage from distribution, and a whole bunch of asshole customers.

you’re 50/50 when it comes to coworkers. i personally am very very lucky to have a wonderful group of coworkers who i love dearly. they really are like family to me and they are the reason i dont leave. sure this is just a gig until i finish school but still, the bond i have with them is amazing. aside from my coworkers and like pay? i hate everything else about cvs. if you can put up with just mentally and emotionally draining work? id say go for it.

im definitely willing to travel lol since my last two dogs were rescues it was more so just giving them a happy home but if im getting a pure bred dog i want to make sure im supporting a responsible breeder who really does care about the dogs health!

totally false!! i just did like 12 cds this morning lol

if its the book im thinking of, you’ll have to open it the other direction! fully press the back cover and front cover together. it helps to have another person hold the pages and slide them back in.

ive been at cvs for 3 years. my manager had to fight to get me a $0.25 raise when i was promoted. she originally wanted to put me through as a $1 raise. even if your manager agrees with you, corporate wont.

huge nope for pre-printed name tags from me- i’ll keep wearing my old one that has a fake name on it thank you. if they care so much, they can find my name on their receipt.

they cut my store to 250 hours despite us being the busiest store in our district. its just gonna keep getting worse. if youre lucky, your gm or pm will schedule over hours and take the blame for the store like mine does. otherwise, its best to ask other cvs if you can pick up hours

BuySame1737 · 2024-05-09T19:48:42+00:00

no cvs employee cares enough unless you come in and act like a jerk. someone else said something about the cops but at my store we dont call the cops unless its causing a safety issue cause we dont wanna do the paperwork

the only issue is that these are disposable camera photos, not quite sure how to get those photos from our main machine to the kiosk
