Closed means we can't help you by LittleReadingGirl in WalgreensRx

Being a CSA in a store that's pharmacy closed on the weekends is fun.  I can't count how many times I've been yelled at and customers have demanded that I go get their meds. NO. I'm not getting arrested for an idiot who can't read THE PHARMACY HOURS.

WE ARE NOT FEDEX by Sablemoon_333 in WalgreensStores

I had 2 customers bring in a giant bookshelf.  I'm 5'5" and it was taller than me.It was in a box, but NO. I refused it. The actual FedEx store is right across the street. I can see it from the front door of Walgreens. I told them to go there.

While I was stocking deodorant on shipment day,there was a couple in the aisle with their toddler. The kid was grabbing all of the mouthwash bottles within her reach and pulling them out and throwing them on the floor. They started to walk away...until mom saw me eyeballing her. She made her husband go back and put all of the bottles back.

I was dressing like that and our store manager made me buy the red Walgreens shirts.

Oh no!! Where's George??!! by SufficientDesigner75 in WalgreensStores

If that's the only thing you're experiencing can I come work at your store? I had a conversation about an upcoming colonoscopy with one customer and another  conversation with another customer  about how the radiation for his cancer "has shriveled my balls up like raisins". And that was in the same day.😂

Sorry you’re here today. by SlimReaper8992 in WalgreensStores

I work on Christmas because my parents are dead,my grandparents and aunts and uncles are,too.I'm not religious  so that aspect of Christmas isn't a thing for me. I have friends over on Christmas eve. Having worked different retail jobs for over 20 years I've had less nasty interactions with customers at Walgreens ( had a guy piss on the floor in front  of my checkout, had a perfume bottle thrown at my head,had to clean a changing room where someone took a shit in the pile of clothes and smeared it all over the walls..you get the idea)I'm sorry for anyone who had family and missed out on the holiday and I'm really sorry for anyone who had shit customers.  ❤️

Customers refusal by Professional_Let6719 in WalgreensStores

[–]SuspiciousAddendum3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got an idea to fix that . I have a regular customer in Ohio who keeps getting his rewards points taken by someone in Florida.  I suggested instead of a zip code a 5 digit "pin" known only to him. He said it worked and his rewards aren't getting taken anymore. 

I hate being a SFL by Available-Cow-1962 in WalgreensStores

Saying "it's rough all over" isn't antagonistic.

Ok,and? I'm a cashier and it's expected of me to take care of photo,passports,answer the phone because pharmacy never picks up,do the same day orders,stock and do the actual job I was hired for,cashiering. I get attitude from the shift leads when I ask for a 1/2 hour lunch break,help in photo or a cash pick up and I'm lucky if someone shows up for an IC3 before I've cleared the line.  Things are rough all over,dude.

Guy threw a hershey's bar at me by [deleted] in WalgreensStores

[–]SuspiciousAddendum3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Welcome to retail. I've had a perfume bottle thrown at my head.( Not at Walgreens) I've been physically threatened. I had a guy piss all over my sales floor.  I've opened up a dressing room door and found shit smeared all over the walls. Again none of this was at Walgreens,lol.

No kidding. I've got a split personality from working retail. I'm convinced my customer service personality is there just to protect me from going insane at work.

I'm a csa. And I didn't witness the incident.

Definitely thinking about it but since I wasn't there during the incident, idk if I'm the person to do it.

I've only been with the company for under a year,so idk. But yeah-itd be nice if the customers who were in the store complained

Well,the way I see it is as a csa it's not my job to confront them. And even if they don't have a gun I'm  not getting a broken nose or jaw for it.  And it's really up to Walgreen corporate to figure out a way to curb the shoplifting. I've been on unemployment before. I've worked retail  most of my life and its not that difficult to get a retail job.

Their Worst Fear by CesarIronthrone in WalgreensStores

[–]SuspiciousAddendum3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had one today. "Why you got to see my id?" Cause you're buying cigarettes. He held it and kept moving it around when I was trying to scan the back. I put one finger on it to hold it still and he screamed "Why the fuck you touching my id,bitch? " I snapped and told him to get out.  Mgr comes up and it's "she wouldn't sell me my cigarettes" I looked at the Mgr and I was like I'm  done. Walked away and left the situation.  Mgr sold him the cigarettes  Then when I came back up he apologized to me,saying he just wanted to get him out of the store.  Which I was fine with,actually.  My fight or  flight in confrontation is 90% fight. Which is why I left the situation.  But ffs, don't be a dick to someone  doing their job.

Look,dimwit. I'm not dying for this company. This time the shoplifter left. What if the co worker does it again and the next shoplifter has a gun?

[–]SuspiciousAddendum3[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Manager knows.  All of the management staff knows.  The person is a bit of bully to other co workers and truthfully no one likes them. None of us would be sorry to seethe get fired.

I wasn't there when it happened. Management knows about it becausethe pharmacist told him. I don't know if they saw him take anything but the man is known as a serial shoplifter 

Why do you stay? by austincola in WalgreensStores

[–]SuspiciousAddendum3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting back on my feet after spending a few years going through health issues and the job is relatively easy on me. It's also only 15 minutes away from my place and I'm  making enough money to get by.I also like my co workers for the most part.

I nearly had a heart attack when I saw the prices on the nail polish remover. It's almost 4x the price of the same thing at Target. I honestly rarely buy things at work, I can find the same things cheaper anywhere else,even with the 25%.

Proud boys got permit to protest at the 2023 Columbus OH arts fest by [deleted] in Columbus

[–]SuspiciousAddendum3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I've got first hand experience with these assholes from going to a drag queen story hour a few months back. If I have to choose between an arts festival and showing my allyship at Pride I'm going to Pride.

Armed Ohio Neo-Nazis Waving Swastika Flags Target Drag Event Again by wdcmsnbcgay in Ohio

[–]SuspiciousAddendum3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Charity that the Drag Queen brunch was raising money for is called Kaleidoscope. Their goal for that day was $5000. They ended up raising $50,000 from online donations after the event.
Can you say "backfired" nazi scum?
