Low volume Rx is harder than high volume already as it is

Worst seasonal sell through that I have seen in over 25 years with CVS. Of course we haven’t changed the assortment much in years.

Why don’t you all just quit rather than whining about hours all the time? It’s a free country

I said it before when they gave the pay increase that they should have just given more hours to stores. Doesn't matter that you give people a raise when you decrease the hours. Could have been a win win for stores to allow more payroll hours. More hours equals more sales and better engagement gives better service. Hey Sally heres a 3 dollar raise an hour however im cutting you 10 hours each week... big fail Larry.

Yes - payroll reduction if you do 25k or less in the front. Stores 35k on 2xHOO so no reason a 25k store can’t do it on a little less. I’m gaining technician hours across the district. My high volume stores are getting more of the support they need; the lower volume; well it’s going to feel a little more higher volume. No more escaping because “I want to not work hard, put me an in easy store”. Trying to level the playing field.

As a DL, this is laughable. There is absolutely nothing new coming down the pipeline except for every other week trucks and workload sharing of pr-scrip-ion verification in the Rx. Chill.

This place is full of paranoid whining id--ts with lots of fake news. Stop wasting time on here and go work in your store and pharmacy instead of complaining about hours all the time.

Remember the big tax cuts and big profits that were to trickle down to employee wages? Where did that go? Now FS layoffs coming by the thousands after reduced retail space starts in 2 weeks. Changes start within weeks, new concept has arrived. Good luck to everyone in FS you will need it

Yes the announcement of new positions are rolling out. SM/RX hybrid. All SM have to become PTCB by July 2019 or within 6 months after they become a SM. Similar to WAGS. Mandatory one day minimum in the RX as a Tech going forward on July 1st.

DL spilled the beans last week
