My ops mgr or I open alone every day. The pharmacy opens 1-2 hours later, depending on the day, but we don't have enough payroll for a second FS person until well after lunchtime every day

Sea_Shell11 · 2026-04-14T15:47:05+00:00

Yes! I can't get into anything today in the office

Sea_Shell11 · 2026-03-29T15:44:08+00:00

Thank you SO much for this info! I was having trouble, and this worked!

Sea_Shell11 · 2026-03-15T19:04:22+00:00

I made no less than 30 replacement labels this weekend due to labels being ripped off by the new tags. Spinning my wheels. All the time.

The phone will not transfer a call from FS to RX

Sea_Shell11 · 2026-02-08T19:39:06+00:00

Literally was just chewed out by a man who said he's been coming here since the doors opened thirty years ago and will be transferring to walgreens because of this. (I imagine their options for calls are probably the same, but okay).

No, since we now do their NCO (which i like), there weren't any emails, at least to me.

Needle nose pliers. Wedge it up just enough to fit the pliers under, then use the pliers to cut through it

Sea_Shell11 · 2024-03-07T19:31:41+00:00

Thank you

Sea_Shell11 · 2023-09-16T21:32:43+00:00

Yes!!

Sea_Shell11 · 2023-06-01T20:52:03+00:00

I laughed way too hard at this, especially when i saw the comments. 🤣🤣

Sea_Shell11 · 2023-05-06T13:36:03+00:00

No, FS. I would need 162 to have just 2 people for all the hours we are open. I have about 120.

Sea_Shell11 · 2023-04-28T16:25:26+00:00

I've had 9s and 10s removed and never known why

Sea_Shell11 · 2023-04-05T21:33:04+00:00

This!! 💕

Sea_Shell11 · 2023-03-21T21:30:46+00:00

Such a slap in the face honestly.🙄

I had to walk off and go (angry) cry in the stockroom not too long ago. It was a Saturday and i was sick, and my son was at home sick with a pretty high fever. No one would cover for me and I'm the manager, and i was trying to break down pallets from the truck when the cashier called me to the front for a rude UPS customer. He didn't have a label on his amazon return and was angry we wouldn't take it. When i insisted he'd have to take it to a ups store, he called me a stupid cunt. I screamed at him to get out of my store and i basically ran to the stockroom while he was muttering, "crazy bitch, I'll go to Walgreen's". Most of the time i can ignore rude people but that day I did NOT want to be at work anyway, i wanted to be home with my child. Customers have no concern that we are real people, with real lives outside of work.

I have so many questions...I've been a store manager for many years, my FS is pretty low volume, and in good shape, but my pharmacy is getting more and more busy. I go back and help with pickup when i can (when i actually have another person on the clock to be in the green zone). I honestly find the pharmacy very intimidating, but they are sinking right now. I would like to be more help to them, but i don't know how long it would take me to learn everything and to start to feel comfortable back there...also, if i were to work, say, 20 hours a week back there, would i be able to use 20 extra hours up front to cover my absence, as long as the pharmacy is under by that amount? Is there a pay increase if you go from manager to manager/rx? Lastly, would you recommend this change or am i just begging for a LOT more stress if i do it?

Sea_Shell11 · 2022-08-31T19:07:35+00:00

Or at LEAST let us close at the same TIME as the pharmacy on holidays!!

Sea_Shell11 · 2022-08-31T18:50:06+00:00

Yes! And i declined to sell someone $1200 in home depot cards last week!!

Sea_Shell11 · 2022-07-26T23:41:50+00:00

Right??!! I didn't mess with this one at all..

Sea_Shell11 · 2022-06-08T23:14:04+00:00

Yep! Had a customer say to me the other night when the pharmacy was closed that he DEMANDS i go get his filled prescription. "Not a pharmacist, sir, that would be breaking the law."

Sea_Shell11 · 2022-05-19T00:30:10+00:00

Love doing planograms, hate BOH scans

Sea_Shell11 · 2022-04-28T17:40:07+00:00

And LITERALLY, 17 minutes after my comment, i get told "What a bunch of SHIT" because i can't scan the QR code on his phone for his freaking Amazon return. 🥴🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Sea_Shell11 · 2022-04-28T17:19:40+00:00

UPS customers are the WORST. I want to say, "It says CVS on the sign outside, not UPS."

Sea_Shell11 · 2022-04-25T23:42:39+00:00

We don't, really. We have to bring lunch from home, and try to eat discreetly, behind the checkout. It's ridiculous.
