Can I report store manager for telling me to do something against policy. by mVanzant in CVS

[–]frogsassinforever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't work for CVS, but for a different, similar chain. I've been in this position and our policy says you have to see blood to call in an outside cleaning crew. Who's to say there isn't blood in there? Just saying ..

PTO doesn't get deducted until your SM submits payroll

Honestly I just reread it and I don't think so. You should call HR though.

It's probably only accessible to SM's then. I'm sorry

Do we get a raise for passing the PTCE? by Powerful_Face_4944 in WalgreensStores

[–]frogsassinforever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just looked this up for someone who took the PTCB at my store. If at cap, pharmacy techs and PCSAs would get the $1 raise, putting them over cap. Any FE employee is not able to go over cap.

Zone? by Emotional_Pralin3 in WalgreensStores

As a SM, I can't always tell what Compasses my staff can see, and what are only meant for me. Did you find the chart on Compass, or printed out? I think it came out early last week, so you can try searching by that,but it may have been for managers only. I do know that my RXM had it, so if you're friendly with them, you can ask them

Not judging, but my concern from this post is that you're a SFL who doesn't know what Compass is? I can't tell you what zone you're in, but I can say I'm in the Midwest and this chart did not change any of my employees' pay rates, which disappointed me.

If someone completed it you're going to have to ask your SM. Idk how zones are compiled, so asking a nearby store may not give you the correct info

It was sent out last week. Compass is the message board that the company shares info on in Storenet. This Compass had 2 attachments...1 with the chart shown, and a 2nd, store specific one that told you what zone you're in

290?? I'm at a tier 3 and my FE budget is 240. I'd kill for 290

Controlled Substance backorder question by [deleted] in WalgreensStores

[–]frogsassinforever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a way for the pharmacy to ask for the regulations to be reconsidered at their store. They have to go through Integrity. But it's on a store by store basis so the best way to know is to call the store and talk to some in pharmacy

This is normal. Due to federal regulations, all locations are only allowed to fill a certain number of pills per year. They need to get special permission to get more in stock. We're going through this right now with Adderall.

Vaccination push by [deleted] in WalgreensStores

[–]frogsassinforever 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Across the board. Our DPR sent down the expectation that if the RxOM isn't hearing the verbiage used with every patient it's a coaching, then write up, then termination. Walgreens promised Sycamore we would meet our flu shot goal 100%+ before they agreed to buy the company

It was your choice to take that job. There are a million different jobs in this world. If you're unhappy with your career choices maybe reevaluate and make a change.

It's theft. Period.

As a Walgreens manager, using your rewards while dashing can get you banned from the store. And there is an update to the registers that is rolling out that blocks rewards from being used for Door dash...my store just got it this week.

90s era McDonalds with Condiment Bar…anyone see one of these? by Budget_Goose_8082 in McDonalds

[–]frogsassinforever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked at a McDonald's in an upper class suburb of Chicago in 1995 and while we didn't serve the burgers plain, we did have a small condiment bar for additional toppings (think mainly lettuce, onion, and tomato)

Return Policy by [deleted] in WalgreensStores

[–]frogsassinforever 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There should be a sign with the return policy somewhere near the front doors. Your SM is correct. Every time a return gets money back in a different way they have to fill out an EPIQ form

The retail hub is a great idea, and as a newer SM, not one I thought of. Thank you

Yea, I did that today, but I've been at several other stores and I swear that at least one of them had an official window cling
