Ha! In yer face CVS!

CVS no longer stands for customers, values and service. It now means Crystal versus the scumbuckets! I got a job. A real job. I had an interview with this place called Pharmerica. It's a pharmacy that ships out medicines to nursing homes all over the country. They do 1.5 billion dollars in sales a year. That's a lot considering they only have 80 facilities in the US. It's located in Twinsburg so it's a half hour drive. But for the money they're going to be paying me I'll gladly take that drive! They were only able to hire 1 person and they picked ME. Yeah, I was very upset with what happened at CVS. But I now see it as a blessing. I was being harrassed, they kept threatening to cut my hours, and the pharmacy manager kept scheduling me for hours I clearly told her I couldn't work. They are starting me out at full time. It is really hard to find a job where they start you out at full time and great pay. And I ran into someone I used to work with at Rite Aid in Portage Lakes. It's a small town close to Akron. He's a pharmacist there. One of the perks about working there is I get to wear jeans, t-shirs and tennie shoes. That is so cool! The Lord truely fulfilled His promise to bring me a good job. I'll be making $2.10 an hour more than I was at CVS. That is a huge difference. Yahoo! I got a job...a REAL job.

Good for you! It is always so amazing to look back and see that God knew exactly what He was doing (not that we don't know that,we just often cannot see it. Hope all goes well in the new job.

Crystal said...

Which one Bek? The customers, values, and service yes that's what they stand for. Although they lack talent in the last 2. Besides I like mine better LOL.

Crystal said...

OK, correction. There are 145 facilities in the US. My bad.

My Uncle in NC works on photo machines. He said the company he hated the most... and was always the biggest pain was CVS.
We have a CVS in our small town... I hardly ever go to it. Only time I do is if they have a huge make up sale or diapers on sale.

Crystal said...

Well Drea, sound like your uncle and I have something in common. Hope he's not there anymore!
