Pharmacist has no right to be rude to custormers. Custormers are there to receive there medication not to be talked down to mabye next time pharmacist should treat custormers with a little bit more respect. Just because these pharmacist are doctors don't give them the right to mistreat custormers there Is no excuse for It. I had to change pharmacies because the pharacist messed my prescription twice on purpose. Know I have found a new store who treats custormers with a little bit more respect then my last kmart pharmacie treated me there was no excuse for his rude behavior. I took my business elsewhere. My new pharmacist Is more professional & doesn't make mistakes but I hope they don't hire the kind of pharmacist my kmart store had. Look @ what we have to put up today from these places they don't care about custormer service anymore. Well If they keep acting ugly kmart could lose a whole lot of business well they deserve It.

"You are not a lawyer to give advice to a pharmacist doctor This is to the CVS pharmacy front end manager.... First, what this company did to this pharmacist is illegal. Second, a front end manager does not give legal advice. Third, a pharmacist is a doctor, and a professional degree worker, and should not been receiving advice from a 'marginally educated' front end manager 'glorified stock boy'. Now, a pharmacist makes over 100K dollar salary a year, and is well compensated to afford a good lawyer and suit their brains out. That is my advice, Larry, sue their brains out before the statutes of limitations expire." The above post is very rude, many CVS Store Managers have management degrees, sometimes Masters Degrees, so you have no right to say to someone you don't know that they are 'marginally educated'. Thats not even the point though, the Store Manager's post was friendly and he suggested the poster seek legal advice, he did not dispense it himself, all he did was say he'd experienced issues with Field Management too and sympathised with the poster. I think you were way off base and you owe that person an apology.

Hi Larry, I am sorry to hear about your CVS experience. I wish it was the exception but with CVS it is the rule. It is sad because some of the guys with whom I worked were great. Management was another story completely. I have never seen a group of people so comfortable using threats and intimidation against their employees. I worked for CVS for a little over 6 months. I was hired to do technical support. I was told there would be "some" on-call time. My manager scheduled me to either be working or on-call for 3800 hours straight. That is correct three thousand eight hundred. And there was no end in sight. I had no life at all for 6 months. I couldn't leave my area in case I got called in. If I did do something and was called I was expected to be available to leave immediately with no compensation for any expenses I may have incurred E.G. movie tickets, baseball tickets, gasoline to drive back from where ever I may have been. Whenever this was brought up to the zone managers, they would become beligerent and make threats. Emails were commonly recieved in red boldface large fonts with job theats. Not for something you did but just in general that if "X" wasn't done the way they wanted it was your job. I saw these same managers blowing 10s of thousands of dollars on their personal expenses while refusing to reimburse employees for the corporate alloted travel expenses I.E. managers said travel meal allowance was $35/day when corporate actually reimbursed up to $50/day. My manager had told me when I started that there was "no written" travel expense policy. I wasn't able to look it up for myself until I got access to the company's intranet. In the mean time, I was carrying nearly $3000 in CVSs expenses for which I ended up shelling out nearly $100 in credit card interest. My manager could not have cared less. His only concern was his bonus. DOL needs to investigate CVS and charge those who are making these decisions with criminal conduct as well as compensating current and past employees for the millions of hours of unpaid labor. Good luck with your claim or lawsuit. I hope it comes out in your favor.

Larry, If the matter is still at hand, I would advise to call a lawyer since it has been so long. I am a store front manager for the company and I know at times its hard to deal with our company office and the fact that most of the time the DM leaves you in the outfield and changes there mind on a daily schedule. If you worked they need to give you what's owed to you at this point, yes they was in the wrong for not taking care of you, if the matter hasn't been taken care of I would most definitely seek legal advise on the matter at hand, maybe there is something that can be done since it has been so long and you had to wait that would make it worth more than it was then, I am not a lawyer just a store front manager so I cant say for sure on that. I would check into it myself. One other thing I do have to comment on, I agree that if owed you should be paid without a doubt, but the fact that you singled out the supervisor as being 27 that is bad and wrong on your part, yes he may be childish in fact but its still an age issue and it could still be taken as discrimination for you mentioning his age like that.
