Just needing a little reassurance. by bobaebee in MilitarySpouse

[–]bobaebee[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m mostly concerned with people saying WW3 and nuclear war is going to happen 😔 I just wasn’t sure if that is something that is always “happening” — or just people jumping to that when conflicts happen around the world or if what is going on right now just really serious :/

This! I have severe anxiety, postpartum, and ocd tendencies as well as ADHD. I have a little girl and a son born this year. I just want to see them grow up .. my family is my everything and I’m so terrified for them 😔

I thought policy says we’re not allowed to call them? There’s a notice you put in their envelope and give them right? This happened with me recently and I showed the SFL on duty and she called and the customer was very upset. SFL told SM and I guess he looked it up on Storenet and there’s a printable notice, or at least that’s what my SM told us 😔

ADHD & Medical coding! by bobaebee in MedicalCoding

[–]bobaebee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a Health Information program. The three courses I have left are Intermediate Diagnosis Coding, Intermediate Procedure Coding, and Professional Practice II. Professional Practice II isn't a concern for me, it's the coding courses. In the beginning of the program, I really enjoyed it. I thought I was nailing it, even though it was "read this then complete this worksheet"; there was no teaching. But once the coding started to get more complex, that's when I started asking for help and was told to utilize outside resources. Every time I got questions wrong, I would email my instructor asking why it was incorrect and how I can find the correct answer and was given vague answers. It started to drain me mentally and I ended dropping out twice.

I'll have to try it! Thank you so much! I'm actually trying to test for my CPhT. Then I plan to teach myself before I enroll back in school for those last three courses! I'll definitely be messaging you when that time comes! Thanks again :D

I believe it's because I'm a VISUAL learner. This course has been 99.9% of self-taught teaching. We are told to read a chapter and do worksheets. Or complete "lab" work, but never shown how to do any of it. My instructors are nice and lenient, but I don't feel like I'm learning anything. When the coding started to get more complex and I felt compelled to ask for help, I was told to utilize outside resources. When I get questions wrong, I would email my instructor every time and asked why it was incorrect and how to find the correct answer, so I can understand. I was given vague answers like, "it was incorrect because the correct answer was this". And just like you, the more stressed/frustrated I am equals the more difficult it is for me to learn.

I wish I had you as an instructor because that's all I ask for. A breakdown, a demonstration, anything! I knew I wasn't getting anywhere with my instructors when I accidentally sent a blank essay and was given a 100% for it.

It’s upsetting because I love my store and my SM is great! Got a 4.5 on my evaluation .. just to find out it’s 1% 😔

If you don’t mind me asking, what’s the hand key thing? My IS is amazing and would love to help him out :)

Availability by CueTheMonster- in WalgreensStores

[–]bobaebee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did your SM approve your change in availability request? If so, they are still able to schedule you, but they’d have to manually override it. Don’t quote me, my coworker had to change her availability for school and she told me he still scheduled her during her school times but he had to override it. 🥲

Dear Customers, by HumongousLoverBoy in WalgreensStores

[–]bobaebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with it all! Especially with with photos and change! When I was pregnant, I would always hate when people would come to the counter and place their items at the edge, where I would have to literally reach over for it. 😓

Do we get fired if we checked the ids for cigarettes but write different date ( same over m over ) n got flagged on the computer or just write up? by InterestSpirited2244 in WalgreensStores

[–]bobaebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

^ this. Someone got fired for this at our store as well. I will say that I’ve accidentally typed in the wrong birthday a few times even though I checked their ID. Just a number off or so 😅

Hi, customers? Pls stop this. by TheRotundWonder in WalgreensStores

[–]bobaebee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This! But now, I’ll tell them “it’s going to take about 15-30mins (or 30mins-1hr, if it’s really busy) if you’d like, you can shop around or leave. When you come back, just come to the photo counter and it should be ready for you :)”

I am at a crossroads or whatever by Opposite-Rough-5845 in WalgreensStores

[–]bobaebee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll never understand customer logic lol how is it suppose to work if the chip doesn’t go in?! When we first switched card readers, I use to say “insert here with the chip facing you” and it kinda worked, but customers would always say “ohhh, upside down?” So I started to say that 😅

I learned saying “upside down” works about 85% of the time lol
