A lot of people are going to lose their jobs and not be able to pay bills or take care of their families. I hope people living on the street because they can't afford to live is worth saving a few bucks. Customers don't want LESS employees in the store. If there's an IC3 of ten people at the front and people in photo who need help while only one person is working, we're going to lose all those p-ss-d off people. They come to Walgreens for convenience and quick checkout, not to wait 5 minutes in line because no one is working.
Corporate needs to find out what customers really want, not what will be "better" for the company. Take a survey in every store and ask customers if they'll be happier with one person running the whole store. The stress of having to do 4 peoples jobs is going to make people quit. It's already been hard enough getting rid of photo and beauty advisor, while expecting one person to do everything. Pharmacy is also getting screwed because no one on the floor means no one can help with their IC3s. So pharmacy patients will also leave Walgreens. No one wants to go to an understaffed store.
Walgreens needs to tell us if they f---ed up financially and this is why they're cutting back on budget, not lie and say it's going to be a better path. Tell us if what happened to other companies closing is happening to us. ASK people what they WANT.
Well said, @YCe0SGf-2pcj.
