All 24 hour stores to convert operations from 6 A.M./8 A.M. to Midnight. All 3rd shift (overnight) pharmacists eliminated. 2 staff pharmacist with 10 hour shifts each and 1 technician. Any pharmacies filling less than 500 scripts a day will be closed due to "underperformance". Store managers to work 2 mid shifts a week. Elimination on DM, District RxM, and other positions. All remaining positions must go through a reapplication employment process, with reduction's on pay rate and benefits. Profit margins must meet or exceed confidential percentages, by the end of March 2015.

My store just was hit with the new 6AM TO MIDNIGHT hour change which has really outrageous shifts and some turn arounds that make it impossible to have any type of personal life. I do believe with the underperformance that this store will close eventually to save $$. Yes makes perfect sense. My concern is for the current pharmacists such as myself that has worked extremely hard over the decade to keep our store afloat and meet all these "criterion" so that we can get somewhat of a bonus. If there is no incentive for pharmacists to be there, expect that ALOT of stores will display underperformance and definitely close. In the end its all about business and profit sadly at the expense of some really really good employees.
Wow

Ah, this don't sound good, but it makes a lot of sense
