Have you ever.....

...work 12 hours back to back as a tech and not take more than a combine total of 30 minutes break? Against the law, yada yada, I know.


In summary, how long can I last? At least its only EVERY other weekends.


Would you rather be working at a fast-pace store or lull around waiting for customers to drop by?

Same Chain - DIfferent Store

Long story short, I was set to go far,far away for school until I was accepted locally at the last minute. I had already quit my retail gig, to which I love dearly, and is back with the chain but at a different store.

I had heard rumors of how BUSY this store was AND it was a rude-awakening. The pace here, from cashier on up to PIC, is incredible fast albeit higher than usual mistakes but still slim enough to be efficient and highly accurate. I've never seen such efficiently in a store. The numbers of prescriptions typed, produced, and verified daily is way beyond a 'typical' store WEEKLY average. It is not just some days, but every days. Mondays seem to be the worst. The store averages from 7-8k/weekly. It was around 9k when the H1N1 epidemic was in full swing.

However, still with how busy it was, even from a 6-month hiatus, I got back into the groove quickly. You have no choice there. Although being very busy, I learned a great deal too.

--Here hoping for the best. School starts on Tuesday! I got to aim higher. I can't be a B student all my life (except high school of course).
