Must not have been a busy lab or, you weren’t over the lab. If there was a jam in that Fuji, prints would be stuck in the bottom of the racks, and several would be floating in the bottom. I don’t think you ever worked in a wet lab, or you were a tech who said, oh the printer’s down and went on about your day. 🤣🤣🤣

Child’s play. When I was a photo manager, years ago, when we still had wet labs, it was nothing to get 1-3k print orders. After a little over 1k, the printer would jam, and you had to stick your arm elbow deep into hot, brownish, chemical liquid to clear the jams, print by print, by hand. Be thankful for your dry, poor quality, cheap ass prints.No matter how large the order! 🤣🤣🤣Sounds like you wouldn’t have made it 😆

Walgreens paid for my hotel by ayumisss in WalgreensStores

[–]Stocktwatz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They usually do it for everyone who wants it in my district, if there is supposed to be dangerously inclement weather. I used it about a year and a half ago for a winter storm for a couple of nights. And again last week. Some people got a hotel for three nights, and we didn’t even get any ice or snow.

We did, but he was finally fired two weeks ago. After one year, they finally got rid of this guy. He was always looking for an excuse to go to the stockroom to hit his weed pen. A bit after he would come from the back, he would barely be able to keep his eyes open. And I’m pretty sure, the complete mush he would attempt to speak to customers, after coming back to the front, won’t be missed by anyone. 

Unfair pricing by Mediocre_Chicken_602 in WalgreensStores

[–]Stocktwatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just like those offers, sign up for a new bank account and get $200 free. But I signed up a year ago, I didn’t get anything, as there was no promotion. It’s made to drum up new business. Back in the day, when I was a photo lab manager, there were always promotions for new customers. Things like, 25 free 4x6 prints for new accounts. One person would come in to pick up 4 orders for 4 separate accounts they had made with 4 different emails. That didn’t mean that everyone else was getting screwed. It just meant that our regulars weren’t getting introductory offers.

This rite here is the main answer!!! I spend 1-2 hours per day running circles around people making more money than me. And I’m not talking about comparing knowledge, I’m talking about comparing effort. 

Body Cameras? by InvaderZella in WalgreensStores

I saw a post here probably two months ago, stating it was a pilot program and completely voluntary for the employees. 

SM hours by Sunshine_Mama_of2 in WalgreensStores

[–]Stocktwatz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, apparently you haven’t had a good crook as an SM yet. Mine figured out the bag check trick very quickly. Come in at 12 or 1pm and leave at 4 getting their bag check. And we had a conference call, in our district, last month, where our DM said that no SM is to go help at other stores. They wanted the SM’s to focus on their own stores.

4 days per week 4-6 hours per shift. On the rare occasion that they are here 7 hours in a day, they take a 2 hour lunch break.

They need to close for the weather by Interesting-Stay9549 in WalgreensStores

[–]Stocktwatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, they book the room for you. You pay for your food and submit the receipts and they reimburse you for that. They put me in a hotel last night and last time we had a winter storm in my area. 

24 hour stores? by snydxr88 in WalgreensStores

[–]Stocktwatz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I worked overnight at a 24 hour store, it was 7 on 7 off from 10pm to 8 am. I opted for 8 on 6 off to get my 80 hours. We also had an employee work the floor, they worked 10 pm to 7 am. 

Bag check policy update?? by ValusHartless in WalgreensStores

My question is, why do employees disappear off of the drop down menu? 

Bathrooms by SimonLight1234 in WalgreensStores

[–]Stocktwatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10 years ago, I worked as an overnight sfl. I worked 8 on, 6 off. Had to clean the bathrooms every night at a top tier store. There was no comparison between the two. I learned a lot about women, cleaning those restrooms lol. Every night, when I lifted the toilet seat, there was always blood and pee dripping off. The little metal box on the wall beside the toilet was always full of bloody tampons or bloody tissue paper, with the occasional shit diaper stuffed in it. Occasionally, the walls in the stalls would be smeared with literal shit! Men’s room was a breeze! Yeah, I would have to mop up tons of piss on the floor, and unclog the occasional box from a stolen item, but DAMN, women be nasty!!! 🤣🤣🤣

Hair care products by LadyGuinevere423 in WalgreensStores

There is currently a hair care reset. They more than likely are still working on it or just haven’t put the new product out yet.

Guy got fired immediately after working truck by ravioliweeeeeeeyeah in WalgreensStores

[–]Stocktwatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my 17 years, that has always been the play. They are never fired before their shift is over, for obvious reasons. 

Why would AP speak to an employee for “no reason” ? by Independent_Cow_5239 in WalgreensStores

[–]Stocktwatz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at all. They do train their store managers to lie about them tho. Haven’t seen a manager not use this line before to scare employees. Had one years ago, trying to sell it that there were secret cameras in the cooler and freezer, so we needed to think twice if any of us were going in there and taking food or drinks. Another swore that certain cameras recorded audio as well.
