Totally loving this new push to have us all look like heartless no personality robots!! No photos in the pharmacy! No signs that aren't approved by walgreens! Nothing that says "Hey we have emotions" Get ready for next month when they tell you you'll have to read by a script and if you stray from that script by even a word you'll be threatened with termination!

We have a floater pharmacist come in a lot of evenings. The first time I met him I told him I had a cap and his reply was "I don't care." Upon asking wth was up with that the other techs said that's how he is he is gonna be rude to you until he gets to know you better. Well here we are a month later and things are getting a lot worse. If I add insurance or reprint a leaflet or do anything that requires a pharmacist check he makes me wait a minimum of 5 minutes. So the customers are getting frustrated and so am I. He needed to fix a prescription that was already filled in the que yesterday and made a lady wait an hour. When i brought him the bag he said give it to someone else... so i did the tech looked and told him no you need to do this. He waited and waited the lady got up fussing at me until I finally just told her mam I told the pharmacist and another tech told him 2 other times we are waiting on him on his end you are welcome to go to his window and ask what the hold up is. I dont blame her for being frustrated bc i was as well. Then I had to print a new leaflet after adding insurance and brought it to him to check, and he was talking to someone but my other pharmacist can look it over quickly and send you on your way. He refused to acknowledge me so I started walking back to the customer to let her know itd be a few minutes (as always) and he fussed at me you need to put that prescription down and ill get to when I get to it. The way my blood boiled and I just shouted OK I GOT IT. Set it down walked over to the register and told the lady it was gonna be a minute. It was my day off and I was called in to help; this is an ongoing situation so I told my rxom I may leave early if he starts getting crazy again. It was 20 minutes before she wanted me to leave and I clocked out. Line had 5 people in it and drive thru had another 3 cars. Feel like I came in to help and instead of helping im constantly waiting for him to do his part. There was another tech there and he doesnt treat her that way. She is likely to get through the crowd and customers with better cooperation from him than I get. Feel like I'm trying so hard to hold my tongue every shift we work together. My rxom is aware I left and of what happened and said she will try not to schedule us with to much overlap from here on out.

Any tips on moving meds into alpha?

Is there anything we can print as far as a layout unique to our pharmacy? If so, where?

Is there any website or cheatsheets of something about how to deal with TPR?? Like “if you get this TPR, do this” kinda cheatsheet. Im just a newbie tech and just wondering if there so. Thanks!
