I’m really frustrated recently, I work for a store that does about 3000-3500 rx weekly. We had a great team before my PIC decided to transfer to another store during my maternity leave. Then the place turned into a sh$$hole. We had 4 rph in the store, me, my manager, a new grad, and an older rph who’s about to retire. They asked me if I would become the next PIC after I come back from my leave, idk why I said yes, but that’s a huge mistake I would regret for the rest of my life.
so after my manager left and I went on maternity leave. The district leader put a new grad who’s not very good, so we end up having 2 new grads, and a near retirement rph ( who use to be super fast, but give up due to retirement)well, it turns out the interim manager (one of the new grad) absolutely didn’t do much. When I came back C2 counts were off, they were 15 pages red, ( but I manage to clear that,) pharmacy was a mess. And my 2 of techs were quitting. (Driving bus pays more than CVS)
I’ve never consider myself a good leader. I’m a good support person, like the staff you would want for your store. But anyhow, due to the baby and money lure, I signed my soul to the devil. As I was struggling to find replacement techs since CVS only wants to pay $14/hr, both of my staff rph (new grads) told me they gonna quit, due to stress/high volume/fear of losing license/patient safety etc. And the fun part, my district leader also quit... so I have the perks to work with another district leader who I’m not very familiar with. Also I’m so new at this, I felt like I was tossed under the bus cluess, maybe some more experienced PIC would handle this better than I do.
I just felt like a failure in life questioning my life decisions. Out of shear stress, I applied to a bunch of clinical position and pray to god that they’d consider me somehow. Also was told hospital pays lower than CVS which I don’t know if it’s true or not..
