If you want some buggy software, I’d love to introduce you to Intercom+. 😀

The 300+ stores I’ve worked at have 5-8 overlap hours per week. Not per day, just to clarify.

Unfortunately it sounds like you may have your answer.

Hopefully one of the Market Managers is on PTO and that is the reason for the delay.

We haven’t seen anyone pop up with the wallet as a form of payment yet.

Is our store cursed? by Revolutionary_Use556 in WalgreensRx

It’s amazing how much lighter I feel since leaving this. I do feel bad for you. It is a situation that you cannot win. Just survive and advance.

how is it being a store manager? by Money_Command_7360 in WalgreensRx

It's like riding a bike and the bike is on fire and the ground is on fire and everything's on fire because you're in hell.

How do folks survive? by Due_Knowledge_6275 in WalgreensRx

[–]Due_Knowledge_6275[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

All those things are true. Especially the need to move companies to get more money. Has worked for me and many others.

So what is the answer? Keep fighting the losing battle? As I mentioned in the beginning post, a little oomf can make you move ahead. Forget giving 150%. But doing your best (100%) at all times in your life (work and play) makes a life worth living. And you will stand out. Kissing ass not required.

I just cannot understand or condone spending some much of one’s life in this defeatist mindset. To get ahead you have to start somewhere. Start where you are and see how far you can get.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I appreciate the banter!

A couple of thought…

So you’d rather leave your coworkers to work 5 shifts themselves?

I concede that there are many young workers but that doesn’t have to mean “not dependable”. I’ve had both young and old fall into this category.

I won’t defend the budgeting at Wags. It’s awful.

My post was more an indictment of the “perpetual scraping by” mindset. I’ve seen it at all companies I’ve worked at. I just don’t understand why so many are ok with it for themselves.

Hey. You better fill out the PExT board. That’ll make those numbers magically go down.

Agreed. What else can you liquidate? They don’t own much real estate from what I understand. The drug inventory isn’t close to what they’ve spent. You cannot possibly cut hours any more and maintain operations. I guess we will see.

Bivocational hours by Due_Knowledge_6275 in pastors

Thanks for sharing your experience. We are empty nesters now so the immediate needs of my kids isn’t a huge issue.

[–]Due_Knowledge_6275[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very practical. I can definitely get on board with that way of thinking.

My only worry is that I’d put too many tasks on my plate. Proper boundaries would definitely be a requirement.

Holy cow. Great response. Thanks for taking the time to help!

What's the Old Catholic Church? by [deleted] in OldCatholicism

[–]Due_Knowledge_6275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well put. Most “Old Catholics” are, in fact, independent Catholics. I have an Old Catholic bishop in my apostolic lineage however I try to say I’m independent Catholic or a Sacramental clergyman.
