I am 68 years old and after 6 months working at a CVS pharmacy that had been open for 10 months I was given a choice of having my hours cut from 30 hours/week to 5-10 hours/week. This store has never met it's metric goals. This was part of their solution!? I was told that my job performance was fine. Also at a earlier date we were told that we could only take at most a 15 minute break to eat something or eat while working or not at all. This is when working 10-14 hour shifts. The possibity for med errors increase under these conditions. It is my opinion that CVS does not care about employee or patient health. I do not understand how stopping the sale of tobacco but continue to sell alcohol shows real concern over a persons health.
