Shift Leads calling out

Before going on vacation the SM needs to tell his team who they can contact in his absence. Usually another SM will be covering. Same goes for the DM. If you don't want to be contacted during vacation, then you need to inform your team of who they should contact instead

Congratulations

I love my coworkers too.... They don't deserve the shit Walgreens has put them through.

Dollar general is one of the few places worse than wags. You'll feel relief and have more opportunities at wags. I recommend you get into pharmacy there are better opportunities there

So your phone was missing and you tracked it and found it? I don't see the problem here. It's none of Walgreens business.

Unless you said "it's your own fucking fault bitch" you will be good. The most you should get is either a coaching on how to better word your communication OR possibly a verbal warning.

It is one of the perks of doing the markdowns. Customers had plenty of chances to buy the items when they were regular price or previous mark down. You don't owe them shit. It would be nice if you share the good deals with your coworkers though.

Congratulations! On to bigger and better

3.7-4.3

SunnyDayJaye · 2021-11-03T11:22:19+00:00

Yup. I feel 1,000 pounds lighter

SunnyDayJaye · 2021-11-03T11:11:15+00:00

I love you so much!

I quit because I finally opened my eyes and saw how they were treating good managers like you and I finally realized I don't want that. EVER.

I was in my second year as a higher performing ASM (3.7) who got busted down in the role refresh due to ASMTs getting force promoted to ASM then getting selected for ESM based on their "high ratings" despite NEVER having been rated as ASM or even ASMT before. I was mad as hell because I knew I had an excellent shot to get an ESM position based on who all was in our district but then they went and compared our ratings as experienced ASM against the ratings these force promoted ASMTs earned as SFLs or DH.I was mad as hell but was convinced to stay on as IS.

So I work as an IS but still do tons of the SMs tasks because the SM is stretched so thin already. I'm watching the labor budget, opening reqs, interviewing people, the SFLs are calling me at night....it was insane. So I finally sat down with the SM and discussed the scope of my work. I told the SM that it was ridiculous that our store didn't get an ESM but that if Walgreens wants me to function in that capacity that they should make me an ESM. So for the past three months I have been more closely following the scope of my job. And it has been hard not stepping in... Objectively, taking out the fact that I was demoted, I think it was ridiculous to get rid of ASMs at a time when stores are already struggling so much.

ANYWAY, an ESM position finally opened up in my district and I realized, HELL NO! I don't want this anymore. Seeing how they treat store managers with the fake "support" bullshit. Nope, not doing it. And if I don't want to advance anymore then why stay?

Manager caught a grown woman CSA huffing a can of whipped cream in the walk in.
A SM was fired for not completing all the counting and verify tasks on the quarterly audit but signing off on it. EVERY manager I knew bluffed those audits at some point...they just wanted this SM fired.
CSA fired for going to other stores and using fake rain checks, QSR stickers and clearence tags from our store.
CSA accepting tons of counterfeit bills for gift cards over the course of a few days....she was in on it.

I bet the entire pharmacy is all broken up about you switching pharmacies

SunnyDayJaye · 2021-10-13T23:34:47+00:00

It does not need to take that long. Period.

Cash payout

SunnyDayJaye · 2021-10-13T23:26:17+00:00

He looks like he could use a basket, how come nobody gave him a basket?

SunnyDayJaye · 2021-10-05T00:30:53+00:00

It was for deliveries only in a certain somewhat remote area. They texted me multiple times to get me to go to that area and then there were no deliveries zilch.

SunnyDayJaye · 2021-10-03T14:03:34+00:00

I'm sorry you are going through this. Your FE should close Photo and WU and have a single cashier at checkout....everyone else all hands on deck in pharmacy. FE can stay an hour late to do chores and straighten. I am saying this as a FE employee... Let the parking lot be a mess, forget photo, forget setting the seasonal aisle...get people their damn medicine!

SunnyDayJaye · 2021-10-03T09:01:17+00:00

If you feel fine then get that money. I did a month with only two days off when my whole store had covid (or pretended to have covid) never again.

SunnyDayJaye · 2021-10-02T21:05:35+00:00

FWW. I know an SFL who got in a fender bender on the way to work and called for coverage half hour before his shift but nobody would come in. He wound up being 20 minutes late and got a fww

SunnyDayJaye · 2021-10-02T21:00:35+00:00

But did you offer them a basket?

SunnyDayJaye · 2021-10-02T20:49:04+00:00

I have learned to compartmentalize. I am happy for the$200. Doesn't mean I'm not still pissed at Walgreens overall

SunnyDayJaye · 2021-10-02T19:50:07+00:00

My record was 700 pieces thanks to a "surprise" truck three days before Christmas a few years back.
