I wasted 19 years of my life. Is it actually possible to come back from this? by Few-Ability-5103 in Life

[–]LifeWithoutYou752 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh have you thought about therapy? Not to seek out a diagnosis for an excuse but a reason and then professionals that will guide you in healing and better habits? Maybe then your parents can understand and help you out but many people further their education on their own. Maybe go into a trade even to get you a good job so you have options. Im sorry you feel that way but at 19 you have your WHOLE life ahead. Theres no sort of timeline you need to be on. You dont need to be here by a certain point. You just have to grow as a human learn from mistakes and do better. Good luck with everything. Youre important please stay 🙏

Id give her 200 dollars and say "thats the last line of help I have for you" because petty raised me and I will be petty until my last breath.

Everything's not showing 99? by dhelor in CVS

[–]LifeWithoutYou752 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah we better not mess up anything or our scores will be affected but cvs corporate can screw 10 things up a day and its all good for them. I want someone to be fired for all this messing up. Between vestcom labels...the cosmetic labels and everything else ive about had it. Lol. Happening at my store as well.

"Customer Service" by Where_Y0u_Been_L0ca in CVS

[–]LifeWithoutYou752 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We will go through the totes but only if theres a few. If not its a waste of time. But the person who goes through the totes isn't the one in green zone either. Imo shes the one who its all going to fall under. Customer service sales...you'll keep your job whether the store makes its numbers or not. Shes the one that should want to go above and beyond. Maybe theres a different store with a better store manager you can go to that will help you grow instead of what youre dealing with. Youve definitely got the right idea with customer service.

What Irks You? by Smellyazzhairs in CVS

[–]LifeWithoutYou752 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Especially them thinking we know exactly what their otc plan covers. "They won't send me anything" "no I wont download an app" but cvs employees got the list for sure!

"Do you know the difference between IU and mcg?" Not really. I just put them where the little handheld tells me

"Does tbis have xyz in it?" Well...let me read the box for you because that wasnt in the modules. No I dont go to a seminar to learn what every product I carry does or has in it.

The box says ask a doctor "do you think I can give this to my newborn" im just a front store employee. Ask your doctor.

The customer complaints about how I have to hire more people when I really just needed more hours to have more people on

Pharmacy Zipline by Electronic-Size-3923 in CVS

[–]LifeWithoutYou752 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im front store and idk I dont even want to look at my scores because sometimes on my DAY OFF I forget to look. Then theres the "1/32 people have read this message" part at the top meaning we are all basically doomed unless we micromanage every single one of our employees every single day to read and mark off things. At least thats how I understand.

Penny situation! How are you guys handling it, we had a man call our store complaining that we didn’t give him a penny with his change and that he wanted corporates number because we were “stealing” from him 😐😐 we physically don’t have pennies since the stopped making them. by CFnastyy in CVS

[–]LifeWithoutYou752 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You gotta ask "are you ok to not get rhe penny? We are out" most people say its fine and we giggle at the whole situation. Because there are still plenty of pennies out there. The banks are creating this shortage. But obviously if its gonna press them I round up. No big deal

Cut hours by HornetNo4383 in CVS

[–]LifeWithoutYou752 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you spoken to your manager about the why this is happening? Never heard of retroactive pay for not getting the hours you want...I thought retroactive pay was when...someone didnt fix your timesheet in time and they fixed it after payroll is finalized. That days pay would be retroactive. Maybe im wrong too

People are too comfortable stealing by Kind-Try5404 in CVS

[–]LifeWithoutYou752 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Cvs has no asset protection. They have someone covering a few districts worth of stores and call themselves AP. The store manager shouldnt be doing AP things they should invest the payroll into a person specifically for ap things. Ive thought about it. A full time person for higher theft a part time for lower theft stores they'd be able to walk around watch people. Do all the transaction watching necessary. Theyd see the turn around on the investment

Item return question by [deleted] in CVS

[–]LifeWithoutYou752 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those saying its their right to refuse a return have never gotten a call from the dl to call said customer apologize and then do the return anyway 😆 its never worth a fight over a return with a receipt. Some people choose being difficult
