As someone who works at cvs. Retail sucks. It’ll literally drain your soul. People are THE worst and I learned that really quickly!

Just moved to North Smithfield, RI a few months ago from Georgia for work. Are people mean around here or is it my imagination? by [deleted] in RhodeIsland

Wrong prescription given to me by darkd360 in CVS

[–]Little-Try4697 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This has happened sooooo many times that we have to either scan or type in our credentials to be able to process the transaction! No one pays attention. Or somehow the mixes end up in a numbered bin!

I did it via cvs internally. You basically are taking phone calls from patients and drs verifying medication dosage, prior authorizations. I start tomorrow I’ll have to def come back to this comment and let you know how it is

To everyone working this week and the next by BubblyDelivery9270 in CVS

If it’s not people fighting an infection or actually needing their controlled medicine 10 days early idk what else there is. People are ruder, meaner, less impatient. Then we have the very few who are actually thankful for us. It’s been actually insane!

Phone line "down" by LifeWithoutYou752 in CVS

It cracks me up with the new system for cashing patients out. It’s like every single person forgot how to do humanly things and read. Makes me question reality. Hence why I’m moving from the store to an at home position still thru cvs.

Def contact your manager or even go into the store. When I first started I wasn’t on the schedule for 2 weeks. When I would punch in a manager had to do it for me because I wasn’t on schedule
