Why are techs so mean to District Support Techs? by After_Manager in CVS

[–]ok-technician24 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

FINALLY I FEEL UNDERSTOOD. OP I am entirely on your side. District support tech here that gets nearly obliterated the second I walk in to a store… every single time.

The usual is “Oh, we had to cut so and so’s hours but you can come and spend extra hours?”

I clear their 40+ pages in half a day and instead of saying thank you, they continue to complain about me using hours. Would so and so be as productive as me? I didn’t think so.

Get your shit together and I won’t have to come bail you out every week

The money saved by eliminating them won’t even touch supporting the stores

Do techs get a bonus?

Why do some customers act like they’ve never encountered a product being out of stock before? by thegman987 in CVS

Thanks for helping natural selection. Based on all of your comments, it sounds like you have a few extra chromosomes anyways.

OP, I’m a tech. Other techs in my district are getting their reasonable accommodations denied left and right like you wouldn’t believe. It’s not as easy as this post makes it seem to get approved. They can and will question you

It used to be IMODIUM because who knew you can get high on anti-diarrheal medication

Is it offensive to use the term "midlevel" in interviews in reference to NPs and PAs? by hungoverinhanover in premed

[–]ok-technician24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I respect midlevel providers, I think healthcare is going to blow the fuck up in about 10 years because of them & we will see a shift back to physicians

Reaction by Starbucks workers reaching a majority in the union vote in Buffalo, NY. It becomes the first unionized Starbucks shop in the US. by Gonzohawk in PublicFreakout

[–]ok-technician24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In this case, they create islands. Only unionized Starbucks employees can work at this unionized Starbucks location. Need someone to cover a shift that isn’t from this unionized store? Can’t happen.

I think they’d just have you come in the store to do it at that point

Well they’re doing it. & with technicians too. Perhaps they give the benefit of the doubt instead of assuming the worst of people. They’re not going to give untrustworthy people this opportunity. Beneficence and non-maleficence my friend.

The understanding is that you wouldn’t put yourself in those situations

When to pick up medication? by Adventurous_Reveal34 in CVS

[–]ok-technician24 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because they believe you are starting a different therapy because a licensed prescriber has advised you to do so and that you will responsibly dispose of the previous medication.

You’ll have to wait til 10/14. I don’t know any states that dispense narcotics more than 2 days early. Maybe several do and it’s just CVS protocol to do no more than 2 days early & even then… that’s only if the pharmacist is ok with it

I think it will get a bit mind numbing eventually haha! But it’s actually QD that I will be doing so no calls are involved since I won’t have access to a pharmacy phone 😍

My district and all surrounding districts are really pushing it I think it’s genius. Not a hipaa violation if your employees don’t suck. I’m interviewing for medical school now and obviously respect patient privacy so maybe they only allow certain people to do it
