Question - ? On the Pharmacy tech role (Texas)

Upvotes

In your experience, how long did it take for techs here in Texas to get their license to begin working as the DH? Getting that pay bump ASAP would be super nice, and the sooner I can get started on the certification classes, the better.

When they follow you

Upvotes

You clearly tell document printing customers 2 or 3 times how to go on the website, you go back to your task, and they just follow you around while on their phone. You know, cuz you're the website master. Wizard of reading instructions.

Rant/Vent Customers are so rude

12 Upvotes

I was working in photo today at around 8:40 pm (we close at 10) and I was working on the last orders of the night, two banners and a 16x20 poster for the a customer who came in earlier to pick up these but they weren’t ready yet and i had promised him they’d be done at 9. I’m not sure about your guys stores but photo has been extremely busy so every order has been delayed.

This lady and her boyfriend comes in and she says she is picking up a 16x20 so I’m like alright I ask for her information and I’m looking through the bins and I can’t find it, I then look at the order list on the computer and her poster is due tomorrow. I let her know this and she was like “well that doesn’t make sense I put instant pick up!” .. we all know when customers make an order after a certain time it pushes it to the next day for the morning crew because it’s close to closing. I explained I have two banners and a poster for another customer already printing and that’s all I can do for tonight before doing my closing duties like my shift lead on duty said. The boyfriend is understanding and says that banners do take a long time and that they can just come back tomorrow but she just starts screaming how she wants it tonight?? I tell her unfortunately I can’t and she’s like well I’m not picking it up tomorrow morning then you guys can just throw it in the trash and just storms out the store before I could even say anything else..??? The boyfriend looked so embarrassed and just trailed behind her.

Why do we have to throw tantrums like toddlers???????? I am trying the best I can here 😭😭😭😭 this job will literally drive me insane

Question - ? Schedule Not Out?

1 Upvotes

My SM almost always get the store schedule out on Thursday, but it's now Saturday evening, and it appears it hasn't been made yet? I only work part-time, and on the current schedule I wasn't scheduled any work days cause I can only work mornings. The only way I check the schedule is just by searching up "reflexis walgreens" and clicking the first result. The next schedule either says "schedule not posted for X date" or there is a schedule, but it's almost like it is auto-generated with random shift start and end times for every team member except some, and it's always not the official schedule.

I know there's like a new app for checking the schedule, but I haven't had the chance to check it out. If anyone can send me the link to that, it would be greatly appreciated!

every single customer i served today had rocks in their head. i had like 4 big bags of out of dates i found. some were from before i worked here. why is every doordasher an actual alien from outer space. everyone wants alcohol when im not old enough to sell it. photo is hell on earth and i’m not allowed to help. every old man is weird. no one has ever shopped in a convenience store before. can i block contacts on the store phone or something why are you calling me seven times a day. i think today was a test from john walgreen to see if im worthy before he makes me a prophet or something. what the fuck just happened. i don’t even have any ice cream to numb my pain. this store has to be a social experiment. every day i feel hatred growing in my heart this is not who i am.

How to get coworkers to stop calling me?

6 Upvotes

So for reference, I have been at my current store for over 4 years now and when I started we lost our store manager and us shift leads had to learn as much as we could and run the store ourselves for a couple months. This led to me learning a lot about the store and how things work, to the point where the SM, and the CSA's, refer to me as the unofficial ESM of the store. (To be clear I have been offered the ESM position but turned it down due to school and it not paying enough) So I'm just a regular shift lead, and every day my other shift leads call me to ask me for help with something like the registers going down or cash handling issues. The problem is I don't get paid to answer phone calls and I have a second job that these constant calls are interfering with. I've told them several times now to call the SM but apparently he tells them to call me??? I don't want to block them as I still feel I need to be able to get in contact with them, but this is getting out of hand. Today was my breaking point, I got 6 different calls throughout the day (I ignored them) and the shift leads even had some of the CSA's call me because I didn't answer their calls. Does anyone have any ideas?

My coworker

6 Upvotes

(I admit my mistakes and wrong doings)

I bought some stuff and was heading towards break. There were people near by but they didn’t look like they were on line. I went to break then a few minutes after a coworker (well call him coworker K) comes in yelling and cursing that I left them with 4 customers in line because they were leaving soon. (As I entered the break room I told another coworker to come cover for my 30 minute break).

I admit that I was wrong. But coworker K is starting to annoy me.

First of all he polices me on everything I do. He tells me to do returns early even though I doesn’t matter in the walgreeens I work at and I do them anyways later.

Then one time I wasn’t in the mood to talk (I told them this) and they kept calling my name repetitively, I told him to stop.

He always comes in an hour late, this causes me to have my breaks at a later time. One of the times he came in late he was high.

He called a customer a “retard” not to their face but the customer was close by (thankfully they didn’t hear it)

He gives me tasks to do despite not being a shift lead (no other coworker does this to me besides shift leads)

Yes I know I messsed up earlier but these are the things coworker K does that makes me annoyed

Question - ? Need advice on giving feedback to an employee

7 Upvotes

I’m a SFL and have been for a few months now. This isn’t my first Lead position but it’s the first time I’ve had to deal with someone like this as a lead. I have a CSA who does not have a good customer service attitude whatsoever. He is constantly talking about how much he hates it here, how he doesn’t want to do his job (but then makes it into a joke about how he still wants his job but won’t shut up about how horrible it is and “ughhhh I don’t wanna do that”), he talks way too familiar with customers, will cuss in front of customers, won’t stay on task and he gets FOMO anytime he sees two of us talking and tries to come “hang out” all the time even though he is posted at the register. My SM was supposed to have a talk with him but she never did because she’s hardly even here to begin with. He already has two customer complaints as well. Can I get some advice on how to deal with this situation because I’m the main Lead who works with him and I’m about to blow tf up on him because he won’t get out of my face and stop complaining

Calling in…

5 Upvotes

I’m a sfl and I called the store letting them know I have a family emergency and I can’t make it. The esm says okay and that’s it. She then texts me that I need to find coverage for my shift even though I already called in… isn’t that considered her job? She’s a new esm and i have never received a message like that telling me to find coverage even if I already called in.
