Walgreens can change store hours but won’t give pharmacy a 1-hour lunch break!

rant

The hell with extended hours just give us an hour to decompress! Our mornings aren’t the best especially if your location is anywhere near a hospital, university, or jail. Many technicians on the evening shift barely have a lunch break. There is never a dull moment we have to keep pushing out medications for people who don’t understand a prescription has to be processed. Pharmacists aren’t eating during their break either just dumping their stress on whomever is on the phone at the time. We used to have 30 minutes now it’s more like 24 with the bag check policy. A nurse was shocked to learn that we didn’t have an hour as if the hours aren’t posted! I wish we could just have an hour!
