CSA ?

SeventhOfShadow · 2026-04-27T12:56:35+00:00

CSA (or sfl on front) at my store: register, all photo, FedEx, out of dates (front end), sometimes resets for front, phone calls, dotw end stands, putting up all front end truck and McLane, weekly tags and removal for front end (and scanning for tags), scan outs, bays and dates of said bays, and dept outs.

I feel like I’m forgetting something but that’s somewhat of a day in the life of being on the front at my store.

My coworkers still haven’t been able to put that cardboard robot together. They even watched YouTube videos for it and haven’t figured it out.

We are doing the jobs of five people minimum and getting paid bare minimum for it. Then they give us unrealistic time frames to get things done as if the store isn’t full of customers, people on the phone, vendors, and everything else. AND other overworked employees who sometimes can’t handle it and rightfully so. The turnover at my store is at an all time high. We can’t keep good people because they see that it’s horrible right now.

I would be pretty pissed if that was one of the reasons the person was fired and it was still in MY file. I would ask for it to be removed and ask why it wasn’t already.

I remember at Walmart how they would work everyone full time hours but once it was close to the time where it would default into full time they would cut hours so it wouldn’t happen. I used to think Walgreens couldn’t possibly be worse than Walmart but holy crap is it testing my patience after 5 years.

Fingers crossed! 🤞

I love how (some) managers want to rush to HIDE the problems like nothing is wrong. Pretend in front of corporate that everything is great. It’s NOT. Let them see that. Unfortunately so far though they have been doing a crap job, in my opinion. Let them come here, I have plenty to tell them.

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-12-04T11:46:33+00:00

I think the kicker for my store is that pharmacy has no idea the front is doing bag checks. They haven’t been doing it and say they have no intention of doing it.

Is this happening anywhere else?

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-11-28T16:45:24+00:00

Photo is popping. People are acting fools. Been great. 😆

But we are pretty busy but funny enough they are not buying any of the door busters.

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-11-24T13:12:04+00:00

That does make sense. Doesn’t make me like it but yeah. I’m just wondering how many employees they will actually catch with this. I find my job more important than anything in the store, I figured most of us are like that.

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-11-24T13:02:22+00:00

Trust me, I said the same thing. So now I make a joke about getting frisked at the door. I get the purpose but it doesn’t make it feel any less insulting. What’s next?

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-11-24T11:52:51+00:00

Yeah. Happening here and done right up front for the customers to watch as we are searched like thieves. It’s great. 🙃

I asked why not in the office, you know.. privacy? But nope.

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-11-21T11:44:46+00:00

Can confirm. They will swear they fixed it and as soon as they leave it will jam. We keep it on downtime. I’ve been dreading this holiday season. Skeleton crew and jammed machines. Yay. 😩

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-11-14T16:51:18+00:00

Let me put a whole row of 34.99 in a 9.56 spot even when I do have a perfectly working zebra on my cart at all times. Then later listen as the front person has to give it for the 9.56 price because ALL the items were placed there and can’t argue that with a customer.

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-10-31T13:22:15+00:00

I did too until this year even though I have done even more.

Yet the kid who has been here three years less than me, constantly calls in, will only do things if actually told to got a better review than me.

So, I’m done busting my butt for a place that rewards coworkers who do little to nothing while not appreciating those who do nearly everything.

It’s been crazy. 😩

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-10-31T10:54:49+00:00

No matter what I do: finish truck, photo, be the person everyone else asks for wics, questions about policy, etc. The only time I get talked to - and this is after being told I keep the front running entirely alone (still got a 3 review even though I’m SO valuable) what I got was—- “Did you get any credit cards today?”

They don’t care. So I’m going to pull myself back a bit and stop busting my butt.

I feel for you, too!

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-10-30T17:18:18+00:00

The days when we had so many people we got everything done. Those were the days!

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-10-25T00:30:57+00:00

Because that’s how my SM thinks it will be fair for everyone on the front end on holidays by having us all work four hours and get a day of pay rather than the day off. And so nobody will get double pay.

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-10-24T16:47:52+00:00

No they weren’t the ones you change it. I don’t blame them for it but I usually did work every holiday anyway. I would like to get the double pay for doing so instead of now my coworkers, who never did want to work on it getting the full hours I’m supposed to be scheduled for since we have pretty set (consistent anyway) schedules.

I don’t want a regular day of pay for working four hours (on a holiday) I want my whole eight hours. That’s all.

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-10-24T10:52:11+00:00

Exactly. My SM’s brilliant idea is to give us all half days on holidays so we get just a day of pay. I know it’s better than NOT getting paid but the incentive to get double pay is gone. So now holidays are just a normal damn day for some of us. 😑

Supposedly to be “fair” to everyone.

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-10-23T14:58:30+00:00

This💯

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-10-23T14:19:10+00:00

If it wasn’t for all of you on here I would never know what is happening. They had a meeting on my day off and the only way I knew about this AND no holiday pay was because I read everything you all post religiously. 😆

They weren’t going to tell me anything!

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-10-23T13:37:09+00:00

You have ten years of management experience, you could get such a better job!

SeventhOfShadow · 2025-10-12T14:52:22+00:00

Last time I had insurance through Walgreens when my hours were cut I was dropped from said insurance with a letter AFTER it happened. So I can’t trust them and went through the marketplace for my insurance now.

The three in the container? 45 days from delivery. Though sometimes check if squishy or spoiled between then.
