Forum for all Walgreen's Pharmacy Staff

I’m a certified tech that has been here the longest besides one of our senior techs and the RxOM, who has just informed me that starting in April she can’t guarantee me any hours at all due to budget cuts. For the past couple months I’ve had 2 set shifts at another store in order to make ends meet and they just told me the same.

It frustrates me that even though I’m full time and have been full time the entire time I’ve been a technician (nearly a year now), my RxOM keeps telling me I’m not guaranteed hours because I was originally hired as a part time CSA back in 2021? Yet my 12 week average is 37, 52 week average is 33, and I have benefits through the company. Make it make sense.

Then she schedules a tech trainee that is asking second day questions 5 months in because “she was hired as full time.”

I’m honestly not even mad. It’s a toxic workplace and I’ve been wanting to leave for a while, it just sucks this is how it happened. At this point I’m just gonna deliver pizzas, I’ll make just as much money with less stress.

ETA: 8-10 everyday Tier 4 pharmacy cut from 300 to 260 to 240 to 200 to 190 and now 160? What the hell? There’s already talks of only having 2 techs on the weekend with no overlap (8-3 and 3-10). Fuck this company.
