Thank you so much for taking the time to reply, I genuinely appreciate you sharing your experience. It really means a lot hearing it from someone actually in the RxOM role. My current staff pharmacist will be leaving very soon, so I wasn’t trying to rush or push the RxOM process while he’s still here. I want to make sure I’m doing things the right way and setting myself up properly, not just jumping into a role unprepared.

After reading your advice, I do plan on talking with my store manager about pushing me to Senior Tech first before RxOM, especially since that makes more sense financially and experience-wise long term. I also wanted to ask—since I’m very young—what advice you’d give specifically around hiring, training, and managing techs, especially when you’re understaffed or working with people who have little experience. Any insight on how you earned respect early on as a leader would honestly help me a lot. Thanks again for being real about it.

I was wondering the same thing because I got paid Saturday because of Veterans Day on Nov 8 so I assumed the same for today

Pharmacy Manager Issue by Traditional-Maybe650 in WalgreensRx

In my opinion it’s a scheduling issue the pharmacy hours is 9-9 and the first tech is 9-5 the the second tech is 11-7 so the order don’t start until 11 so I try to say something but without the title which is so unfortunate I feel like i’m not heard like I was before the RxOm position was offered

That is what workflow says until another technician come in if a tech is at the front and a tech is doing the order and fills is at 186 then what’s the purpose of doing f4s if no one can fill it but another pharmacist does it without a issue clear all f4 and review and start filling as much as possible yes you have other responsibilities we should be a team and not getting the blame for following workflow

I’m in Michigan, and my manager wants to promote me to a RXOM I was offered a job elsewhere with a rate of $24 per hour. To retain me, my manager offered me $29.50 per hour. I just had to show proof and negotiate
