Target fired me after I allowed one of my baristas to buy a Stanley x Starbucks cupI never even bought a Stanley cup for myself — I hate the cups if we're being honest. Getting fired emotionally destroyed me because I'd spent the past eight months putting all of my time and energy basically rebuilding the store’s entire Starbucks team. I would go on Indeed.com and apply for every single job that I qualify for — and jobs I was overqualified for. Now I'm going to look at every single job as a means to an end.

The move, he said, was for personal reasons: “Boise is a wonderful place in general,” he told CNN via email.

The investigation found that the store was seriously short staffed, pharmacy phones were not working properly and the AC unit was broken. A follow-up visit by agents revealed that the pharmacy was over a month behind in filling prescriptions, according to the agency’s report. In addition to the fine, regulators also put the 7292 Fulton Drive CVS store on probation for at least three years during which it will be subject to enhanced monitoring. The issues being investigated range from hundreds of prescriptions allegedly being past due, pharmacy staffing shortages, clutter and unsafe working conditions and concerns about maintaining adequate medications safety inside the pharmacy. These concerns led some pharmacists to walk out of CVS and Walgreens stores pharmacies last fall and ignited a national push to unionize pharmacy workers.
