Quit a few months ago and came back due to personal reasons but I mentally cannot handle this place. I barely get hours and I need money now more than ever while also being in school (one day a week only), my coworkers always call out or make up excuses to leave, the patients are worse than ever I’ve never been so berated in my life, I have panic attacks the night before my shift, one coworker has made multiple techs walk out or cry and God forbid you say the wrong thing around them.

I got a new job I’ve been wanting for a long time but won’t be able to start until about a month from now so I won’t turn in my two weeks just yet. I’m scared for my managers reaction when I turn it in but I cannot work a job only one day out of the week on top of needing to pay for school, pay for insurance, pay for bills. I’m living paycheck to paycheck with this job.

This week was a damn nightmare for my pharmacy.

Some bullshit that happened this week:

1. One tech was called “a fucking liar” because the patients prescription was due a PA and the tech told the patient we cannot manually approve PA’s ourselves and the patient then called them a fucking liar and that Walgreens down the road will approve it for them instead.

2. This story was actually from two weeks ago but we were closing for lunch and a patient came in demanding us to open back up since they “were in the store before 1:30 so we must serve them” and after we told them no they watched us all walk out of the pharmacy to go and eat and said, “piggy piggy oink!” at each one of us.

3. A patient told us yesterday that we need to give them a gratuity refill since their doctors office is closed until Monday. Their doctor denied their refills and we told them we cannot give refills out of gratuity and they went on to say that they have been a top customer since the early 2000s with us and it’s sick to see us denying our partnership?

4. The facial recognition shit has messed up two computers. After it scans your face the entire screen starts flashing and showing an employee up fronts info and then completely black screens.

5. One patient told another tech, “no wonder you’re a fucking pharmacist assistant. You would never be able to go to school or get a job that would lead you to success fucking retard.” After the tech said we still haven’t received their prescription and the patient thought the tech didn’t know what they were doing.

6. Lastly, another tech working drive thru told a patient we didn’t have a new prescription for their controlled substance and it was past closing atp and there was nothing we could do but send in a request and recommend the patient contact their provider first thing in the morning. The patient then says, “I guess you’re just fucking incompetent then huh” The sped off while blowing their car horn

A lot of the use of “fucking” this week and just one issue after another. This job makes me miserable bc no matter what u do patients will find a way to make u look dumb as hell.

we are seeing an influx of patients using flonase before lash extension appointment to prevent a reaction to the glue, ppl using it for puffy eyes, spraying it or rubbing it in their ear for ear infections or swimmers ear, and spraying it on their armpits for fungal infections. all of this being promoted on tiktok

ppl being addicted to afrin is already known and i believe afrin is being considered to go to prescription only.

can u all just use shit for what it’s fucking for? omg. going to have a damn stuffy nose from pollen and have to see a doctor and pay a $120 copay just to be fucking told i have a cold which im aware of to get some fucking nose spray.

not diarrhea or fluffy shit, just looser but firm burning stools for 3 days now.

it started the day after i took a stool softener from being constipated and right before it i ate spicy buldak ramen.

since then i’ve had, pepperoni hot pockets, strawberry nutella toast, chicken egg rolls, takis (not the whole bag at once), mcdonald’s chicken nuggets with ranch, two white claws

I’m tired of the disrespect by patients and this company kissing their ass but then the company barely attends to its own damn needs.

This past week we had 3 computers down for days, 2 broken printers, and a broken register. Oh and our fucking gate wouldn’t close one day and drive thru door got fucking stuck cracked open. So many work orders put in claiming to be fulfilled and never fucking was and we had to call and beg for shit to be looked at.

Been cussed out so many times over bullshit like lunch hours and PA’s. I’m fucking done. I laughed at a mfs face when they cussed me out and tried to buy items and realized they didn’t bring their wallet with them. Fucking karma bitch.

Had another bitch blow their car horn over a PA and refused to pull off.

FUCK THIS COMPANY FUCK THIS COMPANY!!!

July 2028 please come sooner!!! Glad to see this shithole company leave the state. THANK YOU BILL LEE!!! Might be a republican🤮 but you saved the mental health of us employees. Hopefully this company loses the damn lawsuit
