All Walgreen haters need to go work at the Dollar stores and report back about how bad things are.100 bucks those managers are not on the phone grazing on snack foods each 8 hour shift. Now with the front end people doing Code 30's returns all day long creative loafing has hit record highs.I have never seen in 3 years working for Wags any of my management ever replenish the manager portion of the store. I did see a fill in manager from another store do it and he even helped face the store! That's something I never ever see any of our management ever do. They will walk right past a heaping trash can in front of the store and not even think about picking up litter, they walk over items on the floor- it smacks of 100% lazy so you can not blame the help because they have such poor examples and the standards are not that great.As I have said before I would toss a box of puffs at all the sissys boo hooing but there are never any on our shelf ! word! get a grip !
Im thinking you need to get a grip! Seriously youve worked for Wags for 3 years, you must know everything, what 1 store too? Please after youve at least put in a decade and worked in other stores and other mgt, then make a comment, what your describing above is baseless in my opinion.

Windsor Terrace Vows to 'Declare Independence' from Walgreens with Boycott

(From http://www.dnainfo.com/new-york/20120703/wind... )

Location: Walgreens is to replace Key Food grocer, the neighborhood's only supermarket, which recently closed. Windsor Terrace is a neighborhood in Brooklyn, a burrough of New York city.

Size – maybe 8,000 – 9,000 sq feet?

Opening date: March 2013?

“Local elected officials are expected to share news at the rally from recent meetings with Walgreens representatives. But a Key Food employee in the store's parking lot on Wednesday said Walgreens has no intention of changing its plans.‘We wouldn't be emptying out our store if it wasn't a done deal," Mike Jordan, a supervisor at Key Food, said.‘Walgreens is coming in.’ Walgreens will take over the space on August 1, then renovate it and open its store in March 2013, Jordan said.”

I really enjoy filling the cooler because the store is so hot because the temp on the AC is up so high its too hot to be in the store. Customers even comment on it. It's 97 degrees outside and people come in and say damn, its just as hot in here.

I got a nice milk crate to sit on too.
