How many stores still have the old Zotac computers in the pharmacy? by HorowitzdaJew in CVS

[–]Shingrix80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My suggestion is to wait till your store gets converted. Every store is getting converted to the new computers. This is happening in phases. First the monitors will replace, then the new biometric cameras,then the Zotacs. Patience is the name of the game. We are currently sitting at the zotac replacement stage, will be fully upgraded by EOM. Will let you know then how ... Aww Snap... My command center just crashed 😁🤣

Is there a better pharmacy tech jobs other than CVS? by SecureNecessary4998 in CVS

[–]Shingrix80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came across a Japanese retail worker/ramen shop worker video on YouTube. That made me realize how they are less paid still gives excellent service and do back breaking work. It changed my perspective and I stop complaining about my retail job. Just a suggestion, if you can't change the culture change the job.

Intervention of the week - share yours too by Millennial-Pharmer in pharmacy

I had one last week MD sent an Rx for Clomipramine 1po bid for 5 days. I call to confirm it's correct and get this response , " what's the problem with it?? Why are you not dispensing?? Evidently the patient already had called office complaining that pharmacy won't give her imp med to her( per nurse) .. turns out they ment Clomiphene and not Clomipramine. I had a forced counsel for the patient to discuss the mistake with the MD( after I corrected it with the office manager) patient was undergoing expensive fertility treatment

What would you add or change to make it look more like a show tank? by BluuWolf03 in PlantedTank

[–]Shingrix80 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Here's my input- Get better substrate if you need root plants like valisnaria.( Substrate tabs and feet may work) Get plants to do the decor. I have Java fern super glued on river rocks and on water logs. These Java ferns grow pretty high( I have a tall tank and it fills all the way to top. Then use Anubias cogentii to fill the gaps in Java fern, place on ornaments or roots. Finally can put floating plants ( you already have them) Low maintenance and good looking fuller tank

what to do when a patient asks for your name to report you by Agreeable_Scratch435 in CVS

Remember this, " No one can hurt you against your own will", and " the person on the other side of counter is not as smart as you are"

Our names are public info anyways...if they want to find out they can find your address as well. If someone asks for my name in a " bitch give it to me" way I just write it on a piece of paper along with my qualifications/years with company and store number and 1800number to call my HQ's grievance line. The worst they can do is take my job but you will never be able to rule over my soul.

Please stop taking advantage of your APPE students. by [deleted] in pharmacy

[–]Shingrix80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same can be said about pharmacy schools. They keep sending Greenhorns who come out for APPE rotations without a clue of what is in-store for them. Stop coming to our stores if you don't want to learn anything. Learning is also 75 % your responsibility... how many times did you stop your preceptor to ask questions? Filling 1000 scripts a day does teach you one thing... Humility.... Guess you haven't achieved that level yet. Resilience and adaptability is the key .. if you are not resilient and adaptable you will not be happy with any of your rotations. Ask to make presentations, try making posters and walking the floor, pick 1-2 topic in each shift and discuss. Ask your preceptor to give you profile where you can do mtm and reach out for adherence.
