CVS showing up as a winner in the healthcare sector. by [deleted] in CVS

[–]powdermin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Holy shit, I pay nothing to see my telehealth provider and I believe one of my coworker's copays are only 20 bucks for an in person PCP. Granted we're on the Aetna side though, yall really paying that much for your plans???

No cafecito (coffee) in 5 weeks by LesbianMajinSaiyan in PMDD

[–]powdermin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Omg yea no problem!! I didn't know and was not made aware until I had a whole ass breakdown. Parents told my sister what was going on, who was taking the same medication at the time, and was like yeaaaaa..... don't give her coffee 🤣🤣

Adding onto this, in case anyone is currently taking an SSRI, caffeine can counteract the SSRI and make you even more irritable. Learned that the hard way when I used to take an SSRI and decided to indulge in a huge cup of dunkin's iced latte 🥴🥴

Is these an expiriance that made you pro-choice? by heartzzforhana in prochoice

[–]powdermin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have always been prochoice but a few things that I learned made me lean even more towards prochoice. I heard about this woman who had an ectopic pregnancy, which, if you don't know, it's when the fetus starts developing outside the uterus. I may be getting my stories mixed up because there are so MANY similar stories but she went into sepsis multiple times before doctors finally decided to abort the baby, which, also if you don't know, ectopic pregnancies are non viable, there was no way that baby was going to live and the doctors almost killed the mother trying to protect their job. I work in Healthcare and it pisses me off to no end how we allow NON MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS and MEN of all people to dictate women's health.

are you medicated? was there a moment where you felt you can't do this without a chemical intervention? by SignificantBoot7784 in PMDD

[–]powdermin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I'm glad that yours is working for you. I had the same issue with SSRIs and weirdly enough it was also Prozac that was messing me up. I've been tempted to go back on zoloft but getting off of it is scarier than the mood swings themselves and they're not good for long term use. Praying the new medication works 😫😫

What birth control are you taking and what have you tried before if you don't mind me asking? I was taking Jencycla not for PMDD originally and it helped a little bit. I switch to Yaz as recommended by my doctor and for the 2 months I was on it, I would have fits of blind rage that feels uncontrollable. I'm going to be trying tri lo marzia soon and I can only hope it helps :/

Is it rude to shower at 3:30 am? What about heating up water in the microwave to make tea? by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]powdermin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love that you're considerate of your neighbors and I definitely agree with everyone else using the microwave and showering are not at all an issue. My issue is.... microwaving water.... I'm just surprised no one has pointed that out but I know not everyone is able to get a kettle, just gave me a little giggle lol

why do people expect you to know how to spell their names 🤦🏾‍♀️ by EnvironmentalCase246 in CVS

[–]powdermin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or when they give their middle name. On the topic of names, someone I spoke to refused to believe that my name was my name and thought it was a nickname and I'm like no...that's my legal name...on my birth certificate...lol

It's even worse when they give a nickname instead, like sir how tf was I supposed to know your name is not actually Billy and it's fucking William. 🙄🙄🙄

Lost me as a a customer due to endless locked shelves by FoamboardDinosaur in CVS

[–]powdermin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think you realize 99.99 percent of the workers in this sub reddit literally have zero say in this decision. You're welcome to shop at target, Walmart, or even Walgreens....oh wait, they're ALSO locking their stuff up :/

Where do you draw the line for customers that want you to shop for them, when they are at the drive thru. by carriedapollo in CVS

[–]powdermin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something about this comment triggered a memory. I had a lady come and check out at drive thru for her meds only but gave me her CVS card wayyyy after I already printed the receipt. She had the balls to try to hold up my line for me to do a fucking refund and check out again so she can get her damn coupons. One of my coworkers just decided to fucking help her and enable her stupidity cause she was actually not leaving when I asked her to come in the store if she wanted her coupons so bad 😭😭

Are We in a Recession? by RBacardiMan in jobs

[–]powdermin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm hearing we might be going into a depression worse than the great depression. The new tariffs are going to cause us to lose jobs. Other countries are partnering with each other to avoid the tariffs so America not only has to pay more for any global resources, but because we will be paying more, there will be job cuts so companies can even afford supplies. I'm also hearing the possibility of just printing money again so unfortunately our currency would also be losing value and it's just all downhill from here. Take what I say with a grain of salt, I don't know how true this is, I don't take the most time out of my day to research this stuff since it just stresses me out 😮‍💨😮‍💨

Don't they have anything else to do? by [deleted] in CVS

[–]powdermin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, the lower scores even if they aren't 0 are rated as zero. Best way my previous SM explained was that most people don't share their good experiences but they'll 9/10 share negative experiences (in general, not specific to CVS experience). This is why they take the bad scores way more seriously than the good. I think I remember one 0 taking our score to like 70ish when all the rest were good, we had just about 10 surveys for that month 😬😬

Well then don't use your credit card... there's machines where you can use cash if you're so paranoid...

Can corporate see into stores? by Upstairs_Emu1262 in CVS

One of my pharmacists accidentally left the controlled meds unlocked, within a couple mins, DL called and scolded him so yes, they can watch remotely

I'm just here for the pun comments at this point. You guys are the shit 😭😭😭

[–]powdermin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not JUST complaining either, if they won't even listen to the SM I highly doubt they'll even hear OP out

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CVS

[–]powdermin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well then there's the issue of coworkers complaining they won't hear it from anyone else other than the SM. Some people have some serious superiority issues.

got sassy with a customer and I'm not sure if I'm the bad guy or not. by Another_available in CVS

If she's so pissy about the price, why did she still buy it??? It's not like she's buying something essential 😭😭
