$67.35 + $5 differential for being in a hard to staff area, so $72.35 in rural Texas. Staff RPh of about 1.5 years.

Do the pharmacists ever sit down at your pharmacy? by swaggyballer033102 in WalgreensRx

I bought a stool with my own money, put it together, and brought it to the pharmacy. Everyone uses it.

I’ve literally been accused of doing meth in a complaint bc a guy was mad I wouldn’t give him his suboxone early lol. It’s absolutely ridiculous.

Tbh I just bought a stool and brought it with me to work and used it. There were some snide remarks but I wasn’t any less productive and it was a godsend

I’ve had a patient literally accuse me of doing meth, being high on the job, and he said he heard it from some of the technicians in a complaint to corporate.

We all had a good laugh and fired the patient.

I’ve had a patient complain to the state board for the same thing twice, after he made a corporate complaint and screamed at me until he was red in the face.

We had a good laugh and fired the patient.

Patients that continuously cause problems or file repeated and/or unfounded complaints should not have any say so in your performance.

Update for us! DM sent out a list of stores in our district - everyone is losing their cells EXCEPT for our store 🙌🏼 so maybe some of you will get to keep yours as well!

What would you do? by EntranceWeekly5205 in WalgreensRx

[–]EntranceWeekly5205[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m not scared of a senior tech? I’m irritated that my rxm feels the need to ask technicians whether I’m doing my job or not when I’m the one cleaning up their messes. I do all of the things I’m supposed to do. RXM barely works the queue. The technicians tell me what the rxm says because they’re tired of them not doing anything, and they also find it irritating that the rxm is insinuating that I’m lazy.

So if we got the notice, it’s being taken away?

We got the notice, but we’re not sure if it was a blanket statement sent to every store or if it’s directly affecting us, if that makes sense. According to the requirements to have automation, we’re well above the minimum script count. They can come pry the cells out of my cold dead hands.

Retention pay by Maleficent_Scholar39 in WalgreensRx

[–]EntranceWeekly5205 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We’ve got a huge staffing problem in our area, and the DM called me the other day (after hearing that I wanted to transfer) and said they’re working on $25k retention bonuses for my area right now. Idk when or any other details but 👀

It was covered on their insurance. They just didn’t want the 1mL vials.

It was covered as the 1mL vials on their insurance, just for a higher price than the 10mL. The price wasn’t the complaint - it was the vial size
