Make all Walgreens/CVS/Rite Aid employees have tasers, so that you can tase the shoplifters once they escape without paying, and then tape shoplifters legs and arms so that they would not escape.
I had a temporary part time job at at Walgreens over the summer. I just finished a couple days ago. Absolutely hated it the only thing that kept me from quitting was knowing I’d only be there for a month or so anyway. Edit: Also, we weren’t allowed to confront thieves or shoplifters at all. This was my first job too, not a good first impression.
@@spacevetor1615 yeah good luck. I was actually looking online at other people’s experiences working at Walgreens to see if this was a universal thing and from the looks of it I was in one of the better ones.
Yeah it's all about "we don't wanna get sued if you get hurt". Or so they CLAIM. I think it's borderline insurance fraud. Do NOTHING to protect your assets by lying and saying it's for employee safety so when insurance gives you a FAT check for x amount of theft you can pocket quite a bit then tell employees that the thieves are why they aren't getting a raise and tell customers you're raising the price because of shrinkage supposedly "harming" your profits. In the end theft only benefits the thief and the company and screws over the employees and consumers. It's why they refuse to hire a security guard in stores that need it in rich neighborhoods. They don't want to scare off rich customers and lose the money they spend. It's like when you're driving through a neighborhood you've never been to and all of a sudden see bars on the windows and doors. Makes you wanna lock yours and speed tf outta there. People would be AMAZED at the shit that goes down in the neighborhood I work. People don't believe that not only do we get thieves, we get junkies trying to do drugs in the bathroom which is why we close it down overnight. We've even had people OD and die back there which is why we close it down. I've seen a drive by shooting (but they were shooting at another car driving by them at a stop light). We've had a guy who got his car stolen at the light where's we're at. Sex traffickers. Prostitutes having sex with customers in our parking lot. Drunk drivers galore. Homeless people (most suck but some are also not bothersome). And crackheads stealing makeup, nails,lashes, and teeth whitener as if that'll help them look pretty.
Walgreens Pharmacy department on Irving Park and Kedzie in Chicago all go to lunch together from 7:00 pm to 7:30... Of my 57 years living in Chicago I've never seen this before. The whole department closing then opening again because they went all to lunch break together. 😮
My daughter did that at Menards and was scolded by management. They told her she could've been in a dangerous situation. She was incensed at the stuff people would say & do at the customer service desk. A lot of fraud.
@@ftngie yes, the training told me not to intervene but my management wanted me to do it or else its like I wasn't paying attention is what they told me. I know its ridiculous. So not worth being in a dangerous situation like that. Never again.
@@irishpatti3152 yes, it's crazy because where I'm from, every grocery store or a supermarket has like a metal detector and a full checkup at the entries and exits. Zero shoplifting.
bruh i used to work in a store where we had the nicodem and such locked one of those big ass cases and people used to come in with a crowbar and break it open during over nights 🥴
Same. We had the Rogaine locked up and one time there was blood all over the shelve and case where it was locked up. Somebody wedged their hand between the the plexiglass door and metal shelf from the side and sliced their hand up.
Coming across this 3 months later. How is it going? Pro tips: When separating the tags I separate them by front aisles and back. Overnight ashier's at my store do front half and SFL do back half. So in separating them they go in order normally BUT they also have what I call "bullshit sections" as in sections we don't have. Usually endstands and side panels or tables that simply don't exist in our store. Those get tossed. You do monthly FIRST and weekly LAST when you have end of the month tags. If you look on the cover sheet for whatever stack you're on there are numbers on the right beside the department. ie. Vitamins 220-301 Cough/cold 302-357 Allergy 358-370 Pediatrics 371-410 Pain relief 411-423 Cough/cold (ccr) 412-419 Etc... Those numbers are on the bottom left of each tag in those departments. They are so you can keep track of where you're really at because sometimes you'll have those "bullshit stacks" in between the tags that ACTUALLY go up. Like in my example the last one that repeated "cough/cold (ccr)" is an example of a bs stack. They're duplicates. So if you were to try and put THOSE up you'd get confused. The real tags will have a correct B-S-P on it (Bay,Shelf,Position). Like in the normal tag you're supposed to put up for a certain Vitamin will be something like "B9-S5-P10" all the info on it is right. But in the Bs stack meant for an area that doesn't exist might say "B1-S2-P4" and you'll be like "wth? Why is it telling me to put this brain strong vitamin in a men's multivitamin section??". Hope this helps!
but yet so many employees hate us couponers who are actually bringing in the most money after pharmacy. that keeps the doors open and offsets these thieves
I felt very discriminated at Walgreens from 2 people who already not friendly anyways plus they didn't let me scan my online order pick-up to quickly leave yesterday but i still have to get my medicine so i have to hold my tongue.
more money for the company to pay. corporate is stingy as hell at walgreens. They have insurance to pay for their loss, that's why they don't care about thieves.
Yep walgreens says employee safety comes first. I wish we could taser people who steal especially if it's in a bad neighborhood. I mean shelves are always empty and the cops sometimes catch them but for the most part they come in like 4 times a week and steal and steal and now walgreens is open later which makes it even worse. Walgreens should close when the pharmacy closes to make it safe for all employees and customers or at least hire some ex cops and military people to protect their assets including employees and customers.
THE FIRST THIEF OF THE DAY TOOK ME OUT NOT THIS BEING A CANON EVENT
Dead ass thats how it was. I was with walgreens for 6 years and the crazy stuff that went down I couldn't make this shit up.
I’m about to work at Walgreens this video looks fake lmfaoooo 😭😭
@@FUNK_DUHFIEDtrust me it's not. I've been working at Walgreens for almost 2 years now and this shit happens on a regular basis
My store has half the stuff locked up now. And the bathroom is locked so once a week someone shits all over the floor because they’re mad
woulda told em steal me like 8 bags of hot fries n put em out back fr
Get out of there as soon as you can, sister.
Yes I agree !!!
I'm so tired of thieves even with all the cameras THEY STILL STEAL!
Even with all those cameras the police still don't catch em now that's a damn shame
I be carrying my ass walgreens on my back literally
yeoo😂

Handcuff em
So glad I left Walgreens management behind
How many shopping carts do you have left?
All the Walgreens i go to you need a sales associate worth you to open all the items that is locked up, it's almost the Whipple store. so sad
They are going to close upto 25% of stores. If the authorities aren't going to help, this is what will happen.

At a Home Depot a man attempted to stop the thief and was shot dead, never confront them
Super accurate
Is strealing really worth an Eternity in HELL. REPENT HELL IS FOR REAL!
Dude at my Walgreens we aren't even allowed to acknowledge them

my first job was at walgreens, it was like boot camp.
Can make a video on how to tag the isles im a new employee and im so confused on how im supposed to put those yellow tags on
Coming across this 3 months later.
How is it going?

You do monthly FIRST and weekly LAST when you have end of the month tags.
If you look on the cover sheet for whatever stack you're on there are numbers on the right beside the department.
ie.
Vitamins 220-301
Cough/cold 302-357
Allergy 358-370
Pediatrics 371-410
Pain relief 411-423
Cough/cold (ccr) 412-419
Etc...
Those numbers are on the bottom left of each tag in those departments. They are so you can keep track of where you're really at because sometimes you'll have those "bullshit stacks" in between the tags that ACTUALLY go up. Like in my example the last one that repeated "cough/cold (ccr)" is an example of a bs stack. They're duplicates. So if you were to try and put THOSE up you'd get confused.

No bro... I'd rather deal with thieves than couponers. Y'all couponers are annoying as hell!
@@roberteagleton8704 LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@roberteagleton8704A thief could possibly injure or kill you; as opposed to a couponer who is just looking to get good deals. 🫥
Just quit today! I feel relieved 😌

🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️. I can't believe people's behaviors 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤬🤬🤬
Thank god I don’t work there anymore thank god I got out of there !!! Best decision I made
Only in America
I was like "just because we have a Democrat mayor and he's black don't assume he's going to steal eve... oh, there he goes out the door"...
Why don't they just have a security guard there?
more money for the company to pay. corporate is stingy as hell at walgreens. They have insurance to pay for their loss, that's why they don't care about thieves.
Nope
The laws restrict security guards from stopping thieves anyway.
That's crazy must be California
Those monthly savers and weekly tags are annoying af

Why is your store so empty? Product wise
