I Hate Walgreens, Take Advantage Of Them Today And Get Free Stuff

Walgreens is the worst chain parmacy as the company is run by idiots and they hire idiots from their managers to pharmacists. Sad because the idiots are ruining what was once a good company.

So, take advantage of them today (9-12-2007) as they are offering free printer cartridge refills today as a promo for their new service, one per household. Take them the more expensive one, the color cartridge, but don't buy anything from them while you are there or else!!!

hey! my wife works there :(

Well then she probably knows what I'm talking about. I bet she feels like she is surrounded by idiots at work and that she is the only one who uses her brain.

LOL yes!! take advantage of the assholes on the 12th!!!!

(i'm off and don't have to deal w/the throngs of morons trying to come in w/one inkjet per person in their house, getting mad that its only 1 per household)

they were trying to make me come in, on a day i had requested off a month ago to go to an appointment for my son, and gotten it approved as an off day, for the sole purpose of doing inkjets :mad:

they suck balls...hairy.......nasty......balls

thank goodness i raised hell....off days rule when you only have one teeny lil errand to run :thumbsup:

ive had mixed results with walgreens, the one closest to my houe is terrible, the service is terrible, they constantly fuck up on filling perscriptions and get bitchy about stupid things, and for some reasons even when things dont go wrong in there i just get this bad vibe in there that makes me want to leave as soon as possible...

and dont EVER let them develop your photos... they've messed mine up a few times, after the last time where they ruined the negatives so i couldnt take it anywhere else i refused to go back, used to be so convenient to cause it's so close

however the one a little further downtown is a prety well run one

yep...i'm a certified photo specialist....and i get all the effin work. i gadda give everyone lunch, clear out the stockroom, clean the floor, unstop toilets, answer the phones...PLUS all my photo duties....

i'm contemplating going to CVS...if they'd hire me as head of photo, i heard from someone they start you at like 13/hr.... *shifty eyes*

There is a "fight" going on in my town. Walgreens wants to build a store here( We have a high retiree population... lots of prescriptions!)but the city council is insisting they make changes to comply with the city code. This is a tourist town and the buildings have to look a certain way. Walgreens is fighting them tooth and nail to comply. Every one else that builds there has to follow the rules. I wonder why they think they don't!
DOWN WITH WALGREENS!:gunfighter2:

hey...walgreens bash all ya want...but not all photo ppl suck ass....i, for one...totally kick ass at what i do (photo)...and i don't eff shit up (except for that one roll my first day...but nuthin since then)

how were the negs. ruined anyways? what'd they look like when you got em back? and what other ways did they mess your shit up?

i'd just call and complain to a mgr....they like to kiss the ass of the customer at walgreens....you'd prolly get free developing plus a free roll of film, or somethin else from em

around here, at least, all the cvs's are in the spots the old eckerd's drug stores used to be....they either went under, or got bought out or w/e....but they're totally diff.

I'm in line with my color cartridge, then.

I never fill prescriptions there any more. The nearest one to us shorted me on a simple order for .5 mg warfarin, the easiest script in the world to fill correctly. Just pour from the big .5 mg bottle and count. I wondered if they might have a racket going to short the insured public 10 pills per script and save a billion dollars by the end of fiscal year 2007.

I have to say that the people at the cosmetics/perfume counter there have always been very nice to me. That's been the redeeming factor at our Walgreen's.

Ah, yes Smithers, my plan is working nicely, let the hatred for Walgreens flow quickly and freely. :vader1:

I find the number one concern of upper level management or pharmacy managers at Walgreens is where they are going to eat lunch that day. They do make a lot of prescription mistakes and there is no excuse for that. They are paid well and highly educated so they need to do their job right. On top of that, they have a very advanced computer system which should reduce erros but no not with the idiots that they hire. Then when they make a mistake they do try to make you feel like you should consider yourself lucky they let you come into their store only to have them make the error. I don't think there is a coporate memo out saying "When you screw up, belittle the patient so they forget that you made a mistake with their meds" but that is the attitude at many Walgreens.

I don't think I have ever had a problem with their photo department. In fact that is a redeeming quality about them as I have taken naked photos there to be developed before the popularity of digitals cameras and they never screw that up.

CVS bought out Eckerd's. They have much better people working for them in managment and the pharmacies.

yeah fuck that dude.. he's smart enough to fill prescriptions but somehow can't transfer a call???

slip are u and snookums realated????????????

Not by blood but marriage. Haha beat them to it!

yall dont realize how much i really, truly hate my job LOL...

there's this one fat ugly bitch thats been sexually harrassing me (she's a co-worker) and nobody did dick about it until i went to the acting store mgr....(other was on maternity leave)...now they're prolly gonna shitcan her ass....

and any time i go by the rules, and a customer don't like the rules...they'll be like "GET YOUR MANAGER!!!!" and the mgr bends over and takes it up the ass for the sake of "customer service"...fucking retards...i can't wait till somethin better comes along...hell, maybe someday i'll be able to take classes for graphic design or something like that....i wanna do somethin art-related...but no money at this point....

FUCK WALGREENS!!!

oh, btw...for those that wanna do the refills....you have to present the coupon in this weeks flyer to get it...

Yeah, that's bad mojo, Rx mess-ups. Think about all the old folks or parents with small children who don't know enough to catch that stuff, and it's scary as hell. Their pharmacists don't seem to last from week to week, and I have never figured that out why they don't stay on, but it must be the culture of the company or else they transfer pharmacists in and out of different stores like nurses pull from different units.

I now fill the scripts I don't from mail order at Tom Thumb, an area grocery store, and they have had the same pharmacists on staff for years. They're good, too, and very accurate. They're our area 24-hour pharmacy, too, and inevitably have even the most obscure inventory on hand. I have high praise for Tom Thumb. Dave and his colleagues like them best of all around here.

tonight...i kept getting a call bouncing back from pharmacy...a lady needing to know info on drug interacting on meds for her 2 yr old kid...we'd page pharm. and let em know they had a call on "w/e line" and they'd either never pick up, or they'd hang up...either way...that customer went unhelped for awhiiiiiiiiiiiiile...even the mgr tried to make them pick up and they wouldn't...

sorry for the excessive cussing...buuuuuuuuuuut:

FUCK WALGREENS!!

hahah I did not know this its nice to know congrates on the 4 years guys, and the little brother thing is halarious.........and I love sonic there is one about a block from mee Im a coupon whore their. I knew slip worked at Sonic but I didnt even know the 2 of you knew each other. Right now its peach smoothie time......Here their is lots of cute car hop girls, as soon as I find out their 18 or over Im all over em I just like the whole roller girl thing .

repped ya birdy ^_^

consider it your consolation prize for me kicking your arse on answering that question LOL

^^ Now, see? That's just scary. Y'all are right, F 'em. When a mother of a toddler can't get a question about drug interactions answered, that's just wrong. I hope the poor little dude didn't get sick as a result. Did anyone ever help?

Realy birdy thats so kool couple that post togeather stays togeather. I have been tryin to get some of my female friends to post but oddly they are shy about internet things but some of em are dancers and take their close off for money all the time but are embarrased about the internet forum thing. wierd

not sure...she didn't bounce back after i helped her...so *crosses fingers*

i apoligized for the lack of service, and told her that i'd page them again, and i did so quite loudly....and i'd told her beforehand that if she still got hung up on/didn't get thru...call IMMEDIATELY back, press the option for photo (where i was at) and i would see that a mgr went back to pharm. and yelled at em, or even went back there and picked up the phone and MADE someone help her....

*cringes* if you only could see this chick tho....bleeeeeeeeeghhhh....you know how some guys talk about those "dates" where you wake up and some nasty ho is layin on your arm, and you'd rather chew your arm off than wake her up? she's fuglier than that...thats how wasted i was...

but she even calls my friend up at our job sayin she's gonna kill herself cuz i wont be w/her...she says its not cheating cus she's a chick...and she shaved all her hair off (a week before britney did it LOL) outta depression over it...and awhile back, when she was over here...i fell asleep, and slip stayed up cuz he wasn't bout to sleep w/her here...and she just stared at me sleepin and cried for 2 hrs...and one time she blurts out "i'm a murderer"...

and she has this theory bout her husband. years ago he was killed (drunk driver got him) and she says he's not really dead. he had a twin and the twin died, he's still out there, just wont come find me cuz my family has ties to the bush admin. and he's a democrat...

recently she had informed me he's a triplet...and she swears that mine and slips friend has a twin...

our friend says she's prolly just wishin he had a straight twin cuz she wants him (and he's gay)

Target pharmacy is better! I like John, Gerald, and Rebecca- great pharmacists, and they get scripts and refills done so fast!

He HATED the thread in parenting where I talked about his upcoming 21st birthday plans. But he got over it.

I'll get an IM on these comments tomorrow. He doesn't embarrass as easily now as he did when he was 14 or 15, but any self-respecting young man has to preserve his dignity and privacy somehow, especially with a mom like me.

Now I mostly just talk about him to all my girlfriends and their college-aged daughters. . . . (Just kidding, son! ;))
