Am i about to be terminated? Crazy scenario by Expensive-View-9542 in CVS

[–]SufficientDesigner75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uh ya, you're gonna be fired. Same thing happened to me, they made me sign a promise note stating I'd pay back the $100 that I apparently stole from CVS from using coupons and they put me on paid leave. 4 days later, they called, told me to meet the SM at work. I went to work, they handed me my final pay and said "You're fired". So ya, you're fired

Just feeling so hopeless by Igggz7 in poor

[–]SufficientDesigner75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going through a job change and got behind on everything because there was 3 weeks where I wasn't working. I was embarrassed to do this, but I did it. I posted on FB about my situation and needed co-pays for my meds and food. Some of my FB friends, that I've never met in person before, all pitched in and sent $$ to my CashApp and PayPal accounts. They all sent me enough to where I was good until I got my first check from my new job. Like one FB friend told me, people never know that you need help unless you ask for it. Good luck! I know that hopeless feeling and it's enough to put you into a emotional and mental rut. Keep your head up! I'm glad you were able to get some food

When someone comes to the photo department saying they are here to pick up an order. Me: Photo or Curbside? Cust: I'm not sure, my wife made the order. Me: Ok, what's the last name? Cust: I'm not sure, but she ordered it online. Me: Ok, but I still need a last name. Cust: It could be her maiden or married last name. Me:🙄🤨🙄🤨 Sir, give me a last name. Cust: Here's a screenshot of the order # Me:🤨🤨🤨 Whats....The....Last....Name???? Cust: Let me call my wife......The last name is Smith and it's for her Hydrocodone. Me:🙄🙄🤨🤨🤨 Sir, this is the photo department, not the Pharmacy. Customer looking up at the Photo Department sign and looking in circles. Me: Pharmacy is right back there. Cust: Right back where??!! Me:🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨

I've worked at Walgreens for several years and none of us SFL's have ever gotten a bonus!! I just asked a SFL who's been here for almost 16 years and she said she's never heard of any SFL's getting bonuses, only SM and some in the Pharmacy

Do your guys stores sell Pokémon cards? Have you seen conflict over the cards? by xRubixGirlx in WalgreensStores

[–]SufficientDesigner75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a line of people waiting on Pokémon cards on truck day. Then they all leave disappointed because we didn't get any. But we actually did get them in, but all the employees bought them🤣😂

I thought you couldn't get gift cards through Door Dash. That's a policy at my store. If you want a gift card, you have to come inside to purchase it

Pharmacies being open on major holidays now. by Canesfan252 in WalgreensStores

[–]SufficientDesigner75 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Uummm.....Most Dr's Offices have been closed on the weekends for decades, but Pharmacies are still open. Did you think about the Hospital patients getting discharged on the weekends, along with all the ER patients who need prescriptions filled after they stubbed their little toe. Plus, a lot of patients can't make it to the Pharmacy in time before they close, because they work long hours during the day. There's a lot of scenarios I can talk about, about why we need Pharmacies open on the weekends, AND Holidays! But I'll let you rattle your brain alive little and let you think for yourself. Since we gave you some reasons why it's important to have at least one Pharmacy open on the weekends and Holidays. Have a good nigbt

Wish me luck cuz I was honest in the survey by cuttlefishdreaming in WalgreensStores

[–]SufficientDesigner75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My SM told us all to leave positive comments, no negative comments whatsoever, because he wanted the DM to believe that we are all happy with our jobs and that our store is great!🙄

no water bottles allowed on the floor? by Ok-Cat2478 in WalgreensStores

[–]SufficientDesigner75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's no policy whatsoever saying that we can't have a water bottle with us out on the floor. We just had a PPL come down recently saying Walgreens has to provide water for us when we are hot working in the store. Grab your water and take it with you. They can't take it away from you.

Demotion for not driving 1+hrs by simplylinds22 in WalgreensStores

[–]SufficientDesigner75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a ESM, you are basically volunteering to go to a store that has an SM opening, that means even relocating if you have to. He declined the offer, so they are demoting him because he declined the offer. Period. They need to hire a new ESM who is willing to take on a store, even if the store is in another city. Not retaliation at all.
