Florida's nine-member board, for instance, includes a lawyer for CVS and a director of pharmacy affairs at Walgreens. I hated working for walgreens. Every time I go there they dont have my meds in stock. And their Option Care Service has also earned an ultimate FAIL. CVS and Walgreens employees hate when you leave your receipts all around the store because you think other people can use them: Thats a coincidence right? Just search for your medication and we will show you the cost at various pharmacies near you along with free coupons to save you money. I use them for all my PRN meds. I understand how frustrating it is to wait so long for a prescription. Okay. I wonder how many times I have to tell the same person I cannot walk there. It is supposed to be a two sided evaluation with the employee completing a form on their own service and the manager doing it as well but, of course, the store manager claimed an asst manager, Victoria, told us to complete the form before the deadline and she never did so the only performance evaluation that was completed was the manager's version of your performance alone. and he was never available by phone. And, with meds for kids, that is unconscionable. If I had not called and questioned about not getting three bottles of Flonase, I would still be without any at all.

God, I love my grandmother. Thank you and Fuck off. Perfect every time. That is their answer for their horrible service. Part time people up the Ying Yang! There is no system of organization.

We called them in morning asking about booster update, they said they had phizer, I asked if we needed an appointment, she said no just get here before 4pm. Yes, it may be closer to the house than other places, but I am at the point where it is not worth it! Your not alone, rude by pharmacy staff is putting is mildly.

Share your photos and videos with others to prove the truth of your words. I am not supposed to go any days without those medications. Walgreen was understaffed, but also once they hired people, they didn't do anything to make them want to stay. I also have to make them sign the long. I've been on this shit since I was 17 - look in your records assholes! I asked what I was charged with and I literally was charged with the manager saying I said something nobody else heard. What exactly do those things have to do with the past 2 hours you've had to fill my script? Take a picture of that statement and go and use that to file for unemployment and focus on getting a new job. What do people do who are ill and maybe going downhill when they get meds? I have no complaints. I would be using another pharmacy/drugstore after all that. I asked to speak with the manager and the manager never showed up. One emergency supply is one thing but when you're asking for basically "freebies" multiple times because you and your doctor's office can't get your schedules to coincide, the pharmacy isn't there to play baby sitter. You have new overwhelmed photo employees with a broken machine, uninformed managers who have worked for Walgreens for YEARS, and a help line that generally takes 1-2 hours to call you back on even the simplest question. Walgreens is running a BUSINESS that deals with PATIENTS who rely on them to be HEALTHY and while they should not break any laws, they do have, in my opinion, a responsibility to be courteous and helpful and perhaps take some pride in having good customer service. You don't get holidays off ever. What a bunch of idiots. Don't sign anything. People that fire their employee that is pregnant and just miscarriaged? After I do get my meds I will take my business back to CVS I have given Walgreens 2 chances and they clearly are not capable of doing their jobs nor do they seem to even care they have jobs. This makes me so happy because I HATE filling them. She constantly had customers asking for her. I'm sure the corporate scumbags are doing just fine! She insist and even gives me the time I picked it up! Hmmmmmmm. Would you like to buy this crap I havta ask you about for the next 30 days?" You could have stolen the pad and be writing your own scripts. Same employees, but now everything royally sucks all the time. None of the other employees read the employee handbook so they had no idea. I saved a whopping 10 bucks a month off my prescription by going there AND every time I have gone, I have either had no wait or waited five minutes at most. There is only one employee covering the front desk line (6-10 deep), the drive thru (5 car minimum) and the telephones (at least 10 on hold). Plus, I have an "account," so when I need a prescription, I never have to exchange money, I just say "Hey, can you please charge and deliver this?" I'd be finding me a new job pronto. You see a note in the office from the store manager saying to the assistant manager "Tony - do this and stock the cooler" and then it says "Amanda - do this this and that." I hope someone can do something and soon. There is no positive reinforcement. They close for lunch hours in the middle of the day (suspect because shortage of staff), which makes it super annoying. I feel bad for the immigrants who work super hard thinking it will amount to anything. Etc., etc., etc.. may they burn in hell along with their inattentive district/regional manager in Ft Myers and those POS supervisors of theirs who are perpetually in a meeting while their spouses no doubt fornicate with farm animals and the local population of ex circus folk. So, basically, no reason for me to sell it because she gets the credit for it and I don't even get my whole nickel. I bet you make a lot more than five bucks with your bonus for ME, not you, selling this stuff, huh? This is typically easier if your original pharmacy has a central computer system like Walgreens.

I learned photo through the books, internet and help line. leadinglady, December 15, 2008 in The Health Care System Sucks! All I know is that I will NOT patronize their shit pharmacy that I spend thousands of dollars a year at. I can only hope the people whom they have made suffer from their idiotic run around to fill prescriptions prescribed by a freaking oncologist from a large cancer treatment center, that they get that back ten fold. We also had notes saying straightening isn't optional when we have a manager and 1 employee (me) closing at a time and it gets busy so there isn't a lot of time to focus on straightening, as well as a note saying we are no longer allowed to go to the bathroom unless we are on break. I think every Walgreens is different and you can't generalize over the hundreds of locations they have. Tommy offered to let me use his Flonase. They did not care how much pain (actual physical pain) they made me suffer. He didn't believe me, refused to call to confirm, and informed me that it was HIS PHARMACY and I informed him I would do business at a pharmacy that didn't have anything to do with HIM. I think it is because they are so overwhelmed with work, and probably are short-handed as well. I tell you, the antibiotic was making me so ill. Tommy was back to getting everything I needed. Wegmans' number one priority is customer service. So for you, I would definitely quit and find a better job. Is there a kind you like? They did not care that I'm handicap and it is hard for me to run from one place to another. If you enjoy pharmacy, then maybe you'll like the chemistry more if you knew it's being applied to pharmacy. I strongly prefer and recommend a small family owned practice.

I'm almost certain they should have been $5.55 PER POUND for the markdown, but each package was marked $5.55. No. Hate I hate walgreens.. I've been working for the company since June. How heartless is that? Walgreens has a policy that you are supposed to get three a shift. It was supposed to be on auto refill. This sounds stupid because it is. It's as if the old Soviet Union came back and 're-organized' operations to ensure everyone's [censored]ed - including the hard-working. Definitely Walgreens in Columbia, SC (rosewood drive) Sucks. It seems so much organized. I have to believe that anyone with any influence at Walgreens does not read any of these complaints / complements. Sucks. I'm standing there bald from chemo, covered in red spots, holding onto the counter to stop myself from falling over, and they tell me they can't fill my prescription because they have to call the doctor first--on a Friday at 5:30.
