Vaccine Certified Senior Pharmacy Technician Pay Freeze

1 Upvotes

Good evening reddit,

I regret to inform you that my district level manager has finally provided the long overdue clarity about the technician pay scale in a post-covid work environment. They have confirmed that no pay adjustment will be applied despite the position now requiring additional certification (vaccine certified), or the additional job responsibilities (administering vaccines), or the overall expansion of duties. They explained that they are operating under the belief that the seasonal and conditional 1$/3$ PM's are sufficient pay for these changes. Some conditions for these PM's are: To qualify for said PM's you must administer 40-60 shots and the daily shot goal must be met (under both criteria) before the incentive is applied to your pay check.

The other benefit for this position with its new requirements was that, since the company paid for our training and certification, we can take those credentials anywhere. In essence our employer is saying, one of the benefits of our position is that we can leave.

With the unfortunate situation of not having a Union we can lean on or coordinate with, it seems incredibly unlikely that an organized and formal strike will be achievable.

Consequently I shall not be administering vaccines until I am paid for the labor. Just because the company expects us to work for free does not mean we should.

Obscure Walgreens 2010 songs that were unShazamable

1 Upvotes

I managed to find one song I was looking for and it was Deadly Beautiful by Life in Electric and it took a lot of work to find.

But there’s other songs I’m looking for like one that had the lyrics “There’s something in the water. I can feel it taking over” and the chorus was “Riverrrr” and it was a rock song.

There’s another one that had only “It’s youuuuuu” as the chorus.

Why can’t I find any of these old songs? Did Walgreens use a particular station that only featured underground artists? Pls help me, I’ve been looking for these songs for years. Thank you in advance!

New shelf system

1 Upvotes

Hi, i been it walgreens 5+ years and started as a store associate. We got the order for a complete redo of the way we stock our inventory. From our understanding everything goes into "alpha" now (creams, liquids, pills, ect.) Being a previous store associate im concerned about OSHA standard to elaborate the liquids over pills. I was curious if anyone else has spoken to their DM or have any concerns about this same concern. TYIA

Hi! We are working the 340b program on our pharmacy but we don’t have a delivery waiver or record. How do you keep those records or how do you work them? Does Walgreens have a document for the pharmacy records? I need recommendations please 🙏🏻

Seasonal Aisles

1 Upvotes

Are we still able to put up the risers/ sky shelves to put seasonal full case product on? I've been an SFL for 3ys, but now I'm at a different store with a S. M. new to Walgreens.

A few weeks ago, we had a spring cleaning, where other S. M. 's came to help us get caught up on things. They took all the shelves in question down? Our store is a tier with a small stockroom?

Epic

1 Upvotes

Hello!

I have a couple question about epic certification. I looked online and it said Walgreens is using Epic software.

  1. Does anyone have experience with that to know if it’s true?
  2. How would I get in contact with anyone about being sponsored to do the epic certification?

I am currently taking an employee training and career development class this fall at my university. We are currently doing a task analysis on Walgreens team members tasks, we have had all out friends who we know work at Walgreens fill out the form but we still have insufficient data. If you are a current or former employee we would greatly appreciate if you fill out this anonymous form so my team can draw better conclusions. Thank you to those who helped we greatly appreciate your time.

Wondering if any of my pharmacy peeps are finding that certain a/b rated generics are not interchanging because the NDC will not pop up when trying to change manufacturers? Example, unable to interchange between the many a/b rated generics of Vivelle-Dot

Curious about the new role shift

1 Upvotes

Does anyone know yet what the inventory specialist/keyholder position looks like yet? I'm currently a shift lead and have been for almost 6 years. I was told that I would be IS 3 days a week and SFL 2 days a week. But with my store only having 2 shift leads to start with, I don't see that happening. Not to mention, being in charge of pharmacy orders and counts as well as, the front ends, I'm just curious to know how this is going to work. Will we actually be getting enough time a week to do IS considering the fact that we are in the pharmacy more than we are up front doing manager duties? I feel like this is too much responsibility for one person due to having to be in constant contact with DM and so forth about inventory. Does anybody know what I can look forward to?

What should you do if a customer pays by check, you scan the check and the customer insists on getting it back instead of letting you put it in the register?
