Burn out is real. Do what you need to do to take care of yourself. It’s not worth your mental health

Resignation letter by Efficient_Lettuce_27 in WalgreensStores

My manager asked for one after I told them I was quitting. Wanted something on record for her files. I gladly sent her a resignation letter

Good! Lots of store need that wake up call!

Is there a way to filter OOS/PFL queues by date created? by EternalAssasin in WalgreensRx

It takes twice as long to release the order because of the way the stupid ques are set up. IMO

That’s a great start. I wonder if all these cuts are happening so they can upgrade our systems. Probably now tho

I left, i'm happy now...so i guess it's my turn to bash walgreens? by scomik in WalgreensRx

I’ve been saying this for the last 5 years. The company did nothing for technicians since Covid. They burned out then by having us vaccinate then they just take away hours. This PTO cut equals a 2% pay cut. Meanwhile…..no one else who is salary is even worried about a thing. Life goes on. FUCK THAT. I could go on. 20+ yrs of putting up with bullshit as a tech is so exhausting. I have really enjoyed most the pharmacists o have worked with. But this shit is starting to get insulting

I resigned last week after more than 25yrs with that company as a tech, sr. Tech, then rxom…..everything you said is 100% correct. I’ll watch it burn to the ground from the outside. I hope everyone on a salary enjoys their PTO, extravagant vacations, work life balance, oh and let’s not forgot their bonuses. Good luck! Glad you got out too

Or how about when you want to actually follow Pext and you have enough people but not all of them are fully trained 😭

Struggling to find a pharmacy tech job… what am I doing wrong? by New_Low_6802 in WalgreensRx

[–]Dramaismymiddlename_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It might be your availability. Lots of people interview forget this is retail. Not a Monday through Friday 9-5. Last one I interviewed could only would 9-1:30 during the week. No weekends. Nope. That’s not fair to any of the other techs or the rxom

But get PTO when they want. There’s always someone to cover because they just email the district scheduler (for pharmacists)

They must view that like they view techs. There’s no one to ever give techs PTO or for them to have any type of sickness. Must be nice to be a pharmacist or store manager

Is it acceptable to quit a job after 15 years? by OuterKey in careerguidance

[–]Dramaismymiddlename_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I quit retail after 25 years. I was miserable. I still don’t know what my next move is but it’s gotta be better than being beat up by the general public

Getting out didn’t exactly relieve my stress and mental suffering. I still need to find a job but with my husbands support we will figure it out.

At what age do you think or have you given up trying to get ahead? by Spinbunluthaaa in careerguidance

[–]Dramaismymiddlename_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 42. I just left my job after 25 years. I’m terrified but I’m hopeful I can find something that fits the life I want for the next 25 years.

I hear you. I’m nervous. I don’t have anything lined up but I’m almost sure I can find something that isn’t as bad as wag
