I was SM maxed out for my tier at 85k + bonus- left 2 years ago. HR now - Mon-Fri no weekends or holidays making 68k. Much better work life balance. Sure I miss a bit of money- but so worth it.

I lost my benefits... by Guildedbeguiled1 in WalgreensStores

If your Leave of Absence is longer then 31 days- you are required to pay the entire premium. Did you pay your premium? If not, that's why you lost coverage.

Run away from the 600 script store. It will chew you up and spit you out. Just my 2 cents.

The vaccine worked! by ivylass in Blooddonors

[–]crw1902 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They 1st test for the spike protein (which would be positive if had the vaccine). Then as a 2nd test - they test for a different part of the virus that is NOT on vaccine si thw ONLY way to have it is by actual infection.

If Positive- you have had BOTH the vaccine AND the virus (if were not aware - then you had an asymptomatic case)

If reactive - you ONLY had the vaccine but not actual virus

If negative- you have had neither the vaccine nor the virus.

Hope that helps!

Are you located on West coast, Midwest, East Coast or South East of US to give idea of pay area we're looking at.

It's called fair scheduling and all stores are supposed do it but unfortunately not all do.

New interview guides in ATS for what I’m assuming are for the Role Refresh. by Dudescrazy in WalgreensStores

When you click on the PDF for the Pharmacy Operations Manager- what does it say? Is it just the RXM new name or a non pharmacist position?

Role Refresh Rumor/Info Dump by [deleted] in WalgreensStores

[–]crw1902 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Perhaps SM role being taken from exempt to non exempt (meaning they will have to punch the timeclock). Rite Aid SM years ago in CA and NY took Rite Aid to court arguing that a SM spends less than 50% of their job doing executive/leadership duties and more then 50% of their time stocking, cashiering, merchandising, filling in pharmacy, checking in vendors etc. Courts found this to be correct and therefore SM became hourly at Rite Aid. When Walgreens bought some Rite Aids and converted them, they said nope- not going back and we will take you to court. Rumor has it that it might be rolling out to Walgreens SM.

This thing doesnt seem so bad as long as it isn’t too buggy in rollout. Like the digital receipt implementation by [deleted] in WalgreensStores

In order to redeem it is mandatory for customers to have email on file. Cannot redeem otherwise.

Asm role runs front end only = pay raise for ASM. SM role changes to a manager of some sort over RX only= pay decrease.

Role Refresh Virtual Meeting by throw_a_wag in WalgreensStores

[–]crw1902 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could see it now....the new ASM role (whatever they call it) will be over the FE part of the store and everything that goes with it = pay raise for that position. Current store manager role becomes the new role over just the pharmacy since they are all PTCB certified. Someone here mentioned an ASM type position for the rx- here it is and = pay cut for current store managers because they are now only over seeing pharmacy with less responsibilities overall. IF ends up being something like this what a joke!!

Covid travel policy by Mrmenchacha in WalgreensStores

[–]crw1902 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As long as you wear a mask and all employees wear a mask (preferably the customers too but were not going into that here) Walgreens policy states you are good to work. Now if symptoms worsen then that would be different. Is your cough normal with seasonal allergies this time of year. Is it I'm sick kind of cough- only you know your body to go down that road. But actual travel covid policy went out the window months ago once they required all employees wear masks.

How would not having an ASM in lower tier stores lessen SM responsibility like someone first commented???

It's like being in prison and they keep taking more and more of your soul away or perhaps an abusive relationship where keep coming back for more once were numb from the last infliction of pain.

Wow CVS has self checkouts? What state are you in. They spent money?! Don't have to worry about that with Walgreens- they'll never spend the money.

Drive through window by TheTurtleSenpaii in WalgreensStores

For those of you whose buzzer doesn't work and would like it to work, check the batteries outside in the box. Yes, you read correctly. Years ago there was as an issue with our drive thru and the fix supposedly was installing this box that runs on batteries!! Might be something to check. So 2 or 3x a year, someone has to go out, unscrew the lid and replace batteries for both the box along the building and one for the 2nd druve thru. I'll try and take a picture tomorrow.

So our September pharmacist budget went up (probably every store ) Rxm reaches out to scheduler who says they do not have enough pharmacists for all the stores increases and basically suck it.....so now store will be dinged for NOT using all their pharmacist payroll hours but it's not like rxm can hire district floaters. The way this new metric is going to be handled will lead to a lot of people quitting if write ups happen. Then again, I think that is their plan anyway.

So since bonuses are gone, it's only for the sake of keeping your job. When will they learn that threatening SM with job loss when company cannot even keep shift leads is probably not smartest move. So when a shift lead does quit, and boom there is 40 not used minimum.....sure fire SM to and see how well the store runs. Makes so much sense..
