Pharmacy Troubles...

[scuncio]

I am not encouraged to see CVS closing so many stores. Interestingly their stock has been on a tear since they announced this news (full disclosure, I am a shareholder).

I think it speaks volumes that the investment community sees “value” in closing brick and mortar stores. Unless we as a nation change our purchasing and working trends, and begin supporting these stores, I don’t see the trend reversing (and it makes me sad).

I have seen fast food places that did have open lobbies, now have them closed. Where are the poeple that used to do these jobs? I am pretty much around farmers all day so I miss the scoop on where these workers went.
Our small town had at least 6 pharmacies. Rite aid closed a nice new building.
I dont mind supporting local places. A lot easier to deal with a problem there than trying to do it over the phone.

Went to pick up my wife's Prescription today, not ready (it was called in yesterday) They filled right away, They all look tired and clearly under staffed. I Don't hassle them. Happy Safe 2022 everyone

My daughter complains all the time about customers who are mean and impatient. She does the best that she can with the amount of help that she has, but some people are just mean. That's all right, today she volunteered to work on her day off and is making $100 an hour. Seems like the money would draw more people into these jobs.

Not meaning to get political but the large pharmacies (walgreens, CVS)are requiring their employees to get vaxx. This is a big part of the worker shortage problem.
