I'm happy about it, but I am still kinda in limbo. About a year ago, Walgreens started making a change in the store management structure, which basically reduced the amount of managers in each store by one person. Not by firing anyone, but by natural attrition through transfers, promotions, etc. That's how I left Ogden, to reduce that store by one. Now, all the stores in the district, except mine, have completed this process. But that's not really to say my store has an extra manager. We are among the high-volume stores, competing with , and sometimes beating, the 24-hour stores. So we are justified in having the additional manager. At least that's what the store manager tells the district manager.
For now, I'm working downtown. But when a manager somewhere is off for vacation or illness, there is a chance I'll get put in their shoes to cover their spot until they return. And I don't get a choice. I do what they want or I quit. That's the Walgreens way.
