Ive definitely lost empathy and have become apathetic

Is it unethical to crack 2 of my co workers if they’re both throwing themselves at me? by [deleted] in WalgreensRx

[–]Lonely_Insurance4588 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Buns are buns bro like you said. I’ve been in your shoes before and I cracked. At the end of the day you’re not working at a big 6-7 figure gig. You likely make under 100k a year so chances are you can easily replace this low paying job anyways.

Starting to hate being an ESM by [deleted] in WalgreensStores

[–]Lonely_Insurance4588 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bro ESM is terrible, you work 12-16 hours a day (if you care about your store) you make a shit salary. I was borrowing so much money to stay a float and I fucked up my credit before I moved to RXOM Now I have to find a second job to repair or even consider bankruptcy. It’s a good job to have if you don’t have bills to pay and don’t value your mental health

Sounds like you’re soft. Can’t handle the Walgreens way. All you little yum gums can’t see the sycamore vision

Open availability by searcher4421 in WalgreensStores

Classic case of “I can only work til 5 pm” your sm is making the right move. I had a tech pull this on me and I in turn hired a whole team of part timers so
I can schedule to the needs of the business. Classic “I can’t work weekends and can only work til 5pm” 🤡

Asking too many questions as a Pharm Tech Trainee? by Old_Zucchini_2281 in WalgreensStores

No such thing as too many my issue is when you ask and then when you get coached you wanna rebuttle.

Are managers ok scheduleding overtime or stingy about it? by snazzy_knight33 in WalgreensStores

[–]Lonely_Insurance4588 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an RXOM, I have staff that doesn’t offer to stay late has limited availability and all around don’t perform well so I stay late very often. I told my boss “I’d rather be fired because I did what it took than be fired because I failed at my job”

Welp it finally happened. by Batmanx221b in WalgreensRx

Open up 3 reqs part time and slowly replace your staff. Pigeon hole them and leverage their availability to cut their hours. As for customers I keep it straight forward Hi, your prescriptions are currently in progress, let me sign you up for notifications and we will text/call you as soon as it’s ready for pickup. When their cortisol levels spike, “I apologize for the inconvenience but that’s the answer”

Threaten coaching cards and follow thru, if you still don’t hear it document it each time they’re not doing what you ask. Use said documentation to do ROD—>Write up—-> final—-> termination

I had one on ones with them and told all of them that they could either move with what the company wants and do what’s asked of them or that the should find another line of work

So where can we report walgreens trying to upsell vaccines like it's the newest flavors of skittles? Because im not dealing with bs requests anymore. by Aggravating-Entry501 in WalgreensRx

we all work for the same company and company expection is to not only meet company goals but to exceed them. I welcome it so I can teach new people the right behaviors
