crammed with work.


Question Posted Monday June 26 2006, 6:23 pm

its about a job not a job search. sorry.


I work at cvs and yea you may think it can't possible be that busy but at times its really busy and i feel like i get crammed with things that need to be finshed. When i work 8 hour shifts its not as bad but when i work 5 huor shifts it is. I hate having to leave work for the managers to do. Like today i had to leave a bunch of stuff like doing a ton of reprints with photo. 2 rolls of film. Filling a 4x6 paper roll. Then i finished magazines but i didnt know where to put them so i left them up front. When i work i have to do all the stuff that is brought up and ring register. I usually work by myself so i dont have someone that can help me out because the manager is busy.

Is there a way to calm down but get everything thing done?

Hi Laura. (sorry, if you're not her, you just sound like someone in her situation)

Maybe you should go to your manager and explain whats going on and tell her that she needs to hire someone else to help you. She should understand.

Good Luck.

I have had a job like that!

You need to make sure to take care of the customers first and foremost. Everything else is busy work. You don't finish it someone else will.
You should do your best and do what you can. But on days when the store is just to busy, you won't get it all done. You can't be expected to.

So just stay calm and if you don't finish the busy work, then you just don't. No need to feel guilty about it. :)
