Walgreens is having a very difficult time employing anyone. The one in Westbrook was closed indefinitely for a while.

I stopped into one because I didn't feel like driving to Walmart just to pick up some insoles for my work boots and a pack of batteries for my headlamp. $36 after tax, actual robbery. One employee on the front end, U-boats full of freight all over the aisles and nobody behind the counter for their photo booth. No idea how they stay in business in general, paying their employees as low as they can get away with and having everything horrendously overpriced. Good riddance.

Yea, my son is home from college and it’s been him and a shift lead working 12 hour days by themselves. The pay is absolutely abysmal but he’s able to transfer to a store near his school easily so he sticks with it.
