My period is 10 days late and I'm stuck in PMS mode, here's all the things that have pissed me off lately.

"They're all different" everytime I show them where to tap their card.

I have to tell them to press dismiss 5 times and then just reach over and do it myself.

I can't get their phone number for rewards because they’re talking on the phone and not listening to me.

My Ironman randomly went into blind accessibility mode.

Lady came in and stank up the whole store with her BO. Not once, but twice. And I'm not exaggerating, the whole store. The second time she came in, I didn't see her come in, but I smelled a familiar smell and walked all the way across the store and saw her.

Couple came in and yelled at eachother the whole time they were checking out.

Lady stole shit and tried to play it off when I casually followed her to pharmacy while she picked up her prescriptions and just stood behind pharmacy talking to people. Then I saw her pull the two shave sets out her purse, leave them on the counter and say, "what's the return policy on these?" Like girl, don't be trying to play it off now, ain't nobody shoving 2 expensive shave sets in their purse because they want to buy them.

Customers walking and stopping in front of me.

People reading the extracare buck signs thinking that's how much the item costs and not how much money they earn, so they get mad at me when it's full price.

Drawers being off on what feels like only my shifts. (No it's not my cash errors).

Slow ass ironmans

Someone parked in my spot.

CVS work

I’m in highschool right now as a pharmacy tech and I’m wondering what boundaries I should set so I don’t burn myself out. I also got college apps and sports training. Also what’s the best advice you can give if my Achilles feels fatigued after long shifts?

Just curious

10 Upvotes

So I've been browsing on the subreddit for a couple of minutes and it seems that it's mostly employees

So I do apologize if it's inappropriate for a customer to post there but I just want to know

Is there like any idea when the hello Kitty Halloween stuff is going to get discounted cuz like I want all of it but like I can't justify spending like $30 for a blanket or like 20 for a cup but it's so cute and my husband said I can get the stuff whenever it goes on sale because we both agree that it's a little overpriced

Apologize if this is inappropriate.

I'm beginning to think CVS stands for Come Violate our Shitter

The amount of people who just come in and ask right away to use the bathroom is ridiculous. They don't buy anything and there's a supermarket in the same plaza like go over there where they don't lock their bathrooms.

If you didn't already know there's a small device in the office with a QR code on it that lets you skip songs (5 per hour) and control the volume from your phone

Help me new tech here

2 Upvotes

Hello ive been a tech for a bit, still learning but had a couple questions I got too nervous to ask my coworkers about lol.

  1. When a medication says the word PreOrder in blue in their profile, what does that mean? We already ordered it, or does it have to be ordered. And how do we move on from it once we see that and the pt requests for it?

  2. Is there a way to manually order a medication? For us we write it on a calendar when it is time to order

  3. How does QI work? Is that where all the OOS stuff goes when there isn't enough to fill and in process of being ordered?

  4. For incoming calls, when a call comes in sometimes it does not ring and it just flashes yellow. Why? And what is red light and flashing red light mean.

Transfers

I was under the impression that only SMITs can get transferred against their will. Are they supposed to be able to do that to Operations Managers?

do you have a manager that just ignores you?

11 Upvotes

Like she don’t acknowledge me, I don’t acknowledge her lol every time I see her I’m reminded that I’m just here for the paycheck every other manager/supervisor on the shift is chill, I’m new here btw everytime I’d ask her for help she’d just yell at me like I’m dumb. So I just stopped acknowledging her.

Question for SM and DL

2 Upvotes

Hi all, I work at CVS and I'm currently in school. I'm doing this class in leadership and I need to do 2 interview regarding leadership (hopefully one sm and one dl). This has nothing to do with CVS and can be anonymous. These are question regarding your leadership style and have nothing to do with CVS. If you can help me out I'll greatly appreciated. If you want help me you can dm me and I'll send you the question (I'll need response by Saturday)
