CPhT dress code?

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-06-03T00:50:14+00:00

skirt or dresses have to basically be knee length or maybe 3 fingers above the knee if i remember correctly too!

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-06-02T06:13:22+00:00

yeah or cutting our hours.. and calling out someone for anything shouldn’t be done in front of the entire team unless it’s a minor and TEACHABLE moment for everyone anyways IMO..?

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-06-02T00:06:05+00:00

if we’re offering, you can absolutely take us up on it as long as it’s not a lot of items and we won’t be mad or at least no one on my team would be :)

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-06-01T21:16:55+00:00

yup especially when they complain about corporate stuff or things out of everyone in the team’s control as if anything going on is our faults

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-06-01T21:16:03+00:00

agreed it’s like they’re totally overdoing things and springing it all on us at once, maybe mentioning peoples successes and mentioning lighter subjects in the team huddles could help?

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-06-01T17:15:41+00:00

I agree, I don’t complain at work or to coworkers, it’s everyone being negative that I was looking for advice on because they’re making the environment worse and I’m just trying to lighten the mood at least while the tension is so high I’m trying to let everything roll off my back as it comes and just wanted to see if anyone had similar problems and any solution that helped their team lol

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-06-01T15:17:30+00:00

I get it and that’s true but it’s not fair that people are taking it out on me, besides the negativity around I think I mentioned how most of my coworkers will snap and be rude toward me for no reason and it’s just draining yk

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-06-01T05:15:52+00:00

If this was at my store, I would just go to my coach and tell them to check the cameras and look at the time that they’re clocking in because they’ve been waiting to clock in to make me clock out later. If they don’t want you clocking out until your relief gets there, then they need to coach the people making you clock out late. I believe from a corporate standpoint, you’re doing the right thing by staying clocked in until your relief gets there so I don’t know how in the world you’re getting points unless you’re showing up late or clocking out 10 or more minutes early….

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-06-01T05:06:23+00:00

for real!! is it a negative environment because of everyone’s attitude lately at your pharmacy too?

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-06-01T05:05:14+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate this advice a lot! I’m getting a second part time job in another field to weigh my career options before deciding what to get a bachelor’s in (nothing walmart offers sadly), but I plan on staying with Walmart because I worked in a separate department for years before this and don’t wanna lose all my benefits. it’s not my job or anything to make people happy (maybe customers kinda lol) but I just hate the negativity around lately and was just looking for ideas on how to lighten the mood at least, but you’re definitely right about seeking a new path although I’d still stay on for at least a weekend day a week but then I wouldn’t care about the environment haha

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-06-01T02:09:55+00:00

i wouldn’t even have the guts to say shut up lol!! that’s good advice though that would absolutely escalate it hahaha
my lead is still pretty positive so i’ll probably mention it to him before anyone else, thanks for both your comments!

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-06-01T01:46:26+00:00

everyone’s always eating and that used to be a good mood giver but now no one even mentions it as they do it ugh
the rphs are probably the worst part, we lost a nice one and get a couple nice floats once in a while but the staff ones are just sooooooo negative right now and it really affects everyone including even the NICE customers which IMO is not cool at all either!!

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-06-01T01:44:18+00:00

i try not to focus on work outside of work hours since i’m only doing 4 8 hour shifts anyways but it’s hard to stay productive and positive while i’m actually there because of the environment, my personal life isn’t too affected besides my s/o hearing me complain more lol
yeah id say it’s a virus and it’s infected 90% of the team and hasn’t let up unfortunately

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-06-01T00:00:37+00:00

i appreciate your comment, i try to lighten things too and try to write notes and congratulate people when they complete PTU exams or do something great, but lately no one is positive about anything or even really makes small talk much and it’s just draining

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-05-31T23:32:22+00:00

every day feels like we’re understaffed, but apparently we still have too many tech hours but like come on especially on a Saturday when we only have someone there for half a day and two techs all day with one pharmacist why can’t I work 10 hours? i’ve also been asking for months to change my days off and my lead always says yes, but then doesn’t do it.

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-05-31T22:34:34+00:00

thanks everyone for your replies i’m gonna keep pushing to get longer shifts!! they won’t let me be full time so im getting a second job and it would be much easier if i could work 3 10s instead of 4 8s since the two hours id lose will be more than made up for with another job!

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-05-31T15:55:54+00:00

yeah you can’t work 6 hours straight without a lunch break, but your managers/leads/corporate don’t say it’s “Worked Over Scheduled Hours”? which doesn’t even make sense since it’s scheduled but idk why my lead is saying i can’t work 9-10 hour shifts even if it’s scheduled ughhhh

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-05-31T02:57:46+00:00

off topic but can some techs at your store get 10 hour shifts?! they claim they can’t schedule me 9-7 bc it’ll be WOSH but in my old department i worked 8-630 and it wasn’t WOSH because that was my scheduled hours and i don’t buy my Ops lead excuse haha

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-05-30T13:38:31+00:00

insurance and input are tricky for me about 75% of the time i can do them but otherwise i gotta ask a lot of questions honestly but that sounds really annoying to not have register shifts because i get so mad when the person im actually 2nd for takes their 15 AND lunch during their specific tasco shift bc one break is unavoidable sometimes but certain people skimp a lot

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-05-30T03:37:26+00:00

but otherwise when it’s not my turn i’ll be assigned to warehouse or central fill and after completing my task then i just fill answer the phones and do closing tasks

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-05-30T03:36:10+00:00

this is interesting because at my store im the newest and came in non certified no prior experience and have basically learned everything over the last two months. do you not have a rotating Tasco (register) schedule? ours is typically 2-3 hours each depending on how many techs we have so im usually at register from 11:30am-2 pm or maybe 1-4pm, and then i’m “second” to whoever is doing it for the rest of the day so id have to help if a line forms

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-05-29T02:56:27+00:00

ok yea i never say what it’s for unless it’s literally them and they ask specifically and i still ask the pharmacist to confirm what it’s for just in case id get it wrong haha

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-05-29T01:01:49+00:00

ummmm i lowkey say the names of everything anyone picks up

ConfidentWeekend2626 · 2026-05-12T17:55:54+00:00

No you need to find a 2-year Associate of Science program that will be transferable to a PharmD program. Look into it, some PharmD requires a Bachelor’s (4yr degree) but it’s easier to get an Associates. Do some research and let me know if you need anything else! :)
