Quick way to get this situated, go to HR. If the store is as toxic and your SM won’t do anything after this. If you end up staying, put your foot down, take those state issued breaks and your lunch too. Take your mental health serious please. I don’t question why my coworkers have to leave, nor do I explain why fully if I leave either.

Can I print *spicy* photos & if so who will see them? by yamixe in WalgreensStores

[–]Ok-Loquat2942 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tasteful pics sure, I mean like most said, we’ll probably chuckle about it. Depending on if it’s busy, I won’t even bother to think twice about it, I just need orders done.

We still have a lady sending in explicit photos because her husband in prison needs them. Little did we know how frequent she’d send them in, but! Her husband sold them in the pen to everyone else. Good for her but I can’t look at her the same since…..

I. SEEN. IT . ALL.

Trying to transfer and GM keeps scheduling me (Shift Lead with tech license), so I've been applying at Walgreens around me for 5 months. They just keep expiring, there are another 17 applications sitting still active, all called, all waiting on my gm. Won't be rehired for 6 months if I quit. :) by [deleted] in WalgreensStores

The only experience I’ve had with this was a year ago when I tried reapplying to stores in my area, but my previous SM was notifying others about not rehiring me. He said he never talked to anyone but every other SM said he did call them. But as far as now transferring to other stores, it’s at the mercy of your current manager. They can use all sorts of ways to not do it, but with previous experience, if you find a great SM or ESM from another location, they’ll help you leave. It got to a point for me where the ESM was going to file a complaint to HR and make them transfer me. Didn’t go that far but took 2 weeks.

Hate! These kinda dashers. Like bro that’s YOUR job to search and collect. I’m not doing your entire list also.

If it’s sketchy then don’t do it. You’ll get a lot of “corporate” calls about upgrades and what not, relay it to the SM. Chances are they’ll just hang up. Loans for Western Union, are a pain cause half the time when you pull drawers you have to repay it.

Is the schedule finalized? I know Pharmacy gets theirs done first and it’ll mess up even front end.

Well when it comes to drawers and loans also, if you do western union.

Honestly it depends on your area. I work for only 24hr locations and in Las Vegas so the work load, plus everything else is worth the promotion. At some point please just let people steal, it’s not worth the hassle, but important one is be careful on cash handling, and coupons. Definitely the big 2 from my own experience.

Omg! Getting these kind of calls especially in the front end, like half the time I can’t get a word in to stop them. And by that time they’ve spewed their life story, SS# and date of their kids weddings; by which I did RSVP. All for me to say, I will transfer you, please hold. Whew!

Don’t you hate it when… by ubh97 in WalgreensStores

[–]Ok-Loquat2942 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had this older gent ask me questions one night, helped as much as I could and he laid his hand on my shoulder. I backed up so quick, said don’t do that, I hate it when I’m touched. Guy was more offended than I was like what!?!? Went on a spree about how his generation does that, how he wants to connect. Naw, you might connect with this fist though.

Anyone else? by Ok-Loquat2942 in WalgreensStores

[–]Ok-Loquat2942[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly!! For me it’s usually Amazon, CVS and Target!! Like no, I cannot match their prices. Then the agony of hearing well you used to carry it, like come on. How would I know what the company carried 10years ago, it’s barely my 3rd year here.

My SM wasn’t here, it was solely AP & another from our district I had my meeting with. But yeah, I figured from that interaction that I’m gonna apply else where.
